The Lovers and The Chariot

Adjacent in the sequence, and the order carries the reading: the choice is made and then it is driven. The tradition treats The Chariot as what happens after The Lovers rather than as a separate matter, which is why the pair is about commitment rather than about deciding.

Associated with a decision that has been taken and now has to be acted on. The pair notes that the acting on it is the harder half.

Read for a chosen direction being pursued. The pair is favourable and warns that revisiting the choice mid-journey costs more than either card alone.

The choosing is done. Reopening it now is not diligence, it is the most expensive form of hesitation available.
