Numerology

Queens: creativity, nurturing, inward focus, intellect

Upright

The Queen of Cups represents an intuitive, compassionate person who is an effective communicator. They support their loved ones, holding space for their emotions without taking those emotions on for themselves. They encourage you to nurture your personal relationships while maintaining healthy boundaries. 

Reversed

The Queen of Cups in reverse often shows up when there is a need to set boundaries in one’s relationships. You may create situations where people rely on you because you like to feel needed, or perhaps you focus on others’ emotional well-being to avoid working on yourself. Get in touch with your intuition, don’t be afraid to feel your feelings, and maintain proper boundaries with the people in your life.
