QUEEN OF CUPS DESCRIPTION
The large grey throne on the small island in the Queen of Cups Tarot the card contains the Queen’s fluid energy; she can only release it back into the sea. But if the Queen of Cups remains in it, the half dome in the shape of a sea shell promises that she will give birth to something beautiful.
The square-shaped sections in the Queen of Cups’ crown are engraved with nine circles each. That’s the number of months in the human gestation cycle. The Queen’s throne is carved with water spirits called undines. The undine on the right holds a fish, symbolizing spiritual gifts.
Contemplating the cup in her hands, the power of the Queen of Cups’ vision transforms it into a temple guarded by two angels. Her visions are sacred. The Queen of Cups’ white robe symbolizes purity.
That’s because that the Queen has accepted the responsibility that comes with her position. Those wild party days in the Three of Cups had to end sometime. As the Queen of Cups cloak’s white and blue wave pattern shows, she has learned to trust her intuition.

REVERSED QUEEN OF CUPS
|
When the Queen of Cups is reversed, she suggests that your independent streak is probably too wild for others to handle.
She could also warn that you are spending too much time inside your own, private world. The majority of the time when the queen of Cups appears and is "standing in" for a person, she is representing a female with hair on the lighter end of the spectrum. However, because of the reversal, it can indicate that this woman may be feeling hurt, put-upon, and can be becoming untrustworthy. Watch the signals. General: The reversed Queen of Cups reminds us to treat ourselves with love and compassion. Regardless of your past or your circumstances, you are worthy of love and respect. However, there may also be a literal woman in your life whose loving energy may have turned to anger. Watch for this and if possible, help this woman to understand the things that are happening in her life. Work: A woman in your workplace may be causing you problems. If so, she would be at once a very kind and understanding person, who has now morphed into basically a control freak and at minimum, her loving ways might have turned into being more judgmental and untrustworthy. Love: In general when the reversed Queen of Cups appears in a reading about love, the outlook is good. This card reminds you to stay focused on the loving side of your personality. True, deep love for others also encompasses the understanding that other people are on their own timelines. |

Finances: The reversed Queen says that you must be careful about being too aggressive financially. Cautious investments and placements of your money are a better bet now. Allow yourself to think creatively and to be creative with your money, but only within reason. Do not gamble or loan more than you can afford to lose.
Health: The Queen of Cups reversed points to needing and receiving support and love in the context of health. If you have a need for healing, look to women/those with strong feminine energy. The reversal also calls you to be loving and supportive of yourself.
