The final piece of the moebial puzzle - and why it relates to the lovers card, is the Klein Bottle. It needs to be understood that this figure has to be constructed out of two "enantiomorphic" moebius strips which have been stretched and warped and glued edge to edge such that they are seen to be able to "pass through" each other without making a break or gap. An enantiomorph is a pair of systems that are oriented in opposite directions to one another, for instance vortex pairs where one rotates diosil (clockwise) and the other widdershins (counterclockwise). You might see an "enantiomorphic vortex chain" if you slowly pass a lit stick of incense through the air and it leaves a wake of smoke eddys behind it.
These are the Lovers, and they are made for one another - made to become one on a higher dimension. The two oppositely oriented moebius strips glue together to form the Klein bottle which is a surface that is continuous on both the "inside" and "outside" faces. The inside is the outside and the outside is the inside.
This is the true relation of mind to body, of within to without. As it is said in the gospel of Thomas - "Where there is no difference between within and without, then you shall know the kingdom of heaven".
The lovers are a pair who are in truth One. Adam and Eve is a myth that suggests this reality. We can find it by studying and contemplating these shapes. This is the bottle in which to keep one's djinn. This is the truly sealed vessel. Infinitely sealed, infinitely open.
We can perform this higher dimensional unification both on our own dyadic parts (light and shadow, mind and body) and on our relationships - in which case this is in truth and Alchemical marriage.
Know also that by analysis the Blein bottle becomes the moebius strip, becomes the Lemniscate, becomes the infinite web. All is entangled. The miracle of the Klein bottle is that it forces us beyond the 3 dimensional material world and requires of us that we forge a spiritual link. In this way we are made whole.
Heal yourself in this way. Marry yourself thoroughly.
