From the Victorian Fairy Tarot, the Two of Summer (Cups); from the Haindl Rune Cards, Thurisaz:
True partnerships, whether in romance, at work, or as friends, truly are a gift. We seem to speak each other's 'language,' understanding how the other thinks and does things. It generates a warm feeling of belonging and connection that can sustain us through stormy seas and add enjoyment to balmy days. Thurisaz refers to the thurses, a race of primeval giants who represented raw, unguided potential. They were considered an enemy of divine order, so it makes sense that this rune would also symbolize thorns. When one person in a relationship develops new interests that the other doesn't share, such change can feel like the partnership has become unmoored and in danger of ending. Yet sincere interest and encouragement can be the two oars that keep it moving through those transitions.
