The Queen of Cups is among the most loving archetypes in the deck. She indicates compassion, love, and concern for ourselves and our fellow man. Often when the ‘court cards’ come up in a reading, they indicate an actual person, in this case a woman, in our lives. 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.

Complete Book of Tarot: Queens are mature nurturing individuals (mother figures) who are responsive to the emotional climate surrounding the querent. They represent important women related to the current situation or significant personality traits needed by the querent to navigate the matter at hand. When upright, the Queen of Cups is a sensitive and nurturing woman who plays an important role in the querents life. She is able to tune into the feeling state of those around her and to use her emotional intelligence to reconcile differences.
Complete Book of Tarot: Today, many readers prefer to invent their own spreads to suit the question at hand and thereby provide the specific information desired by the querent. In 2013, Llewellyn published a ‘toolkit’ for constructing spreads entitled The Deck of 1000 Spreads, authored by Tierney Sadler. The back cover of this toolkit says that users can ‘mix and match these 59 labeled and 6 blank cards to customize any tarot reading imaginable. Each one features a color-coded theme, the name of a commonly used spread position, and a written description of that position.’ The color-coded themes include the focus of the question, the influences to which the querent must attend, the characters involved in the situation, the time frame, and issues related to the outcome including relevant advice, the potential resolution, and any lessons to be learned.

Complete Book of Tarot: Hebrew letters: Ayin (an eye; a Hebrew word meaning to see, watch, experience, know; also primeval light, shade, a spring or fountain, as an eye producing purifying tears in response to pain or grief). In the Bible, Lucifers name means ‘bringer of light.’ The letter Ghah is also associated with the Devil card. According to Jeff Benner, the twenty-third letter of the ancient Hebrew alphabet, Ghah (‘a twisted rope’), was absorbed into the modern letter Ayin. 38 Ghah means ‘twisted,’ ‘dark,’ or ‘wicked,’ and refers to goats because of their twisted horns. In modern slang, ‘horny’ has come to mean lustful or sexually preoccupied. Perhaps the combination Ayin Ghah associated with this card suggests adopting a twisted view of the world. Coincidentally, Capricornthe goat of astrologyis assigned to the Devil trump.
