Minor Arcana

Queen of Cups

The Queen of Cups sits at the water's edge, gazing into an ornate, closed cup with deep stillness. The card speaks of emotional depth, compassion, and intuition that holds others without drowning. She feels everything and is not swept away.

Upright

This is the wisdom of feeling deeply while staying rooted in yourself. You can offer compassion and intuition without losing your own center in another's tide. Trust the soft, steady knowing of your own heart.

Reversed

Reversed, the depth can turn into overwhelm, absorbing others' feelings until your own are lost. There may be emotional exhaustion or boundaries dissolved by care. Tend to your own cup before pouring it out for everyone else.
