How can I get along better with my mother-in-law?

Few family relationships are so proverbially difficult — and so little chosen. How can I get along better with my mother-in-law, without denying myself and without every family lunch becoming a minefield?

Choose three cards from the 22 major arcana. The interpretation reads them as a guide for this concrete relationship: what really hides behind her behaviour, what part belongs to the dynamic between the two of you, and which approach dissolves the tension instead of feeding it. The Empress next to the Tower tells a different story than next to Temperance.

Peace with the mother-in-law is rarely love at first sight — it is almost always long-term diplomacy. The cards show you where to begin.
