Queen of Cups

The Queen of Cups is the Queen of the Throne of Waters and is aligned with the Water Element and therefore the astrological signs of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. She represents the intuitive feminine, mastery of the feeling realm and the height of compassion.

The Queen of Cups brings connection to the subtle undercurrents of life, of compassion, of depths of creativity and esoteric wisdom.

She is emotional intelligence, in touch with all facets of love, whether it is romantic love, familial love, friendship and also love of nature and animals. She can teach you much about the depths and possibilities that love can manifest in your life.

When she shows up in a reading, it is to connect you with your own positive emotional nature. Since the quality of one's life starts with the emotions, it is an important lesson to embrace in order to have a fulfilled life. Too often the emotions are sacrificed because we only want to experience the 'good' emotions but the path to happiness is to take all emotions with equanimity and learn to let them all pass, as they must eventually. The Queen of Cups can help you to channel your emotions so that they pass and transform like a rainstorm or a burst of sunshine.

This Queen shows her emotions openly and authentically - she does not try to hide them in order to protect herself or others as she understands that the most healthy way to live is to express and release emotion.

If the Queen of Cups comes into your life now it is to signify you are ready to open your heart and transform your life through empathy, intuition and your feeling nature. If this card represents you, it signifies that you are now ready to help others to open their hearts and to transform their experiences by coming to understand their own capacity to heal their innermost being through self-love and compassion and forgiveness.

It is time to now trust your feelings and let them guide your life towards wholeness and happiness.
