The Queen of Cups Upright
Everyone wants to be unconditionally loved and fully accepted for their true, authentic self—and this is exactly how this Queen shows her love. She is fully present when she is with you, actively listening as she holds space for those who need a safe spot to be vulnerable. Caring and compassionate, she leads from her heart (even if that sometimes means ignoring common sense!). Embody this energy by meeting people on an emotional level and exhibiting patience, understanding, and unconditional emotional support.
Since you have such a deep understanding of what others need emotionally, be careful to own your boundaries and not take on something that isn’t your burden to bear. You can be the solid rock that everyone counts on and an energetic support system to your friends and family, but also know when your tender heart has had enough. There is such a thing as being TOO generous to the point where you neglect your own needs. Remain centered, and don’t take on energy that isn’t yours…you know what I mean?
The Queen of Cups Reversed
When this Queen arrives reversed, it’s a sign to prioritize your own self-care. You're nurturing everyone around you, yet you're putting your own emotional needs on the back burner. Show yourself the same care and understanding you bestow upon others and be open to receiving support from those around you. If you've been feeling overly sensitive lately, this tarot card is a sign that you're emotionally spent and energetically burnt out. Don’t be so hard on yourself, honey! Indulge in a little rest and relaxation. After all, self-love leads to greater levels of compassion.
This card is also a reminder to stop doubting yourself! If something doesn’t feel right, then it probably isn’t, so why are you ignoring the red flags that are being presented to you? Ignoring your instincts will only lead to unnecessary pain and chaotic trouble. Trust your intuition and make your decisions accordingly.
