Queen of Cups

Additional deck interpretation:

The Queen of Cups points you towards a path of following your intuition while preparing for changes as you continue your journey through the seventy-eight passageways of growth.

This is the level on your continuous cycle of change where intuition and spiritual messages help break new ground for transforming a current ordinary personal or professional situation into something extraordinary through use of innovation or a creative makeover.


The Queen of Cups is intuitive, spiritual, creative, artistic, and feels everything deeply. She is also associated with new beginnings and endings.

The Queen's experiences with the past did not hold her back. She uses these experiences to help others while remembering how it feels to suffer from emotional chaos, get mired in the past, or to hang onto something for too long.

She has an inner knowledge and pays attention to her feelings and offers sound advice. She is a mother, clairvoyant, has a sixth sense, psychic abilities and provides counseling. She loves deeply, has strong family values, is the peacekeeper and loves to decorate her home.

The Queen can refer to a significant person who will enter your life, an impending important event, or something unexpected that will surface.

You might wonder why the Queen of Cups turned up in your reading! Is she trying to tell you something about yourself, or do you need to activate a part of yourself that has been dormant? Does the Queen come to tell you something about an important event that may occur?

Numerical Number 13: This number indicates the time of transformation so new ground can be broken to achieve a dream, the beginning of a new passage or important change.

The number 13 consists of: 1 (a new beginning) + 3 (rebirth and creating something new) = 4 (cleansed and purified and ready to build a new foundation).

The Element of Water: The Queen of Cups is associated with the elemental water qualities of the planet Pluto (radical changes, hidden gifts and evolution) and the zodiac sign of Scorpio. The combination of Pluto in Scorpio brings out deep feelings that cannot be ignored.


Probable Outcome: You might be on the verge of writing a will. You may get married or experience a baptism or Holy communion.

Perhaps you are looking for a partner so you feel complete.

You may be listening to your intuition and acting on your feelings, or protecting someone who needs your help.

You could be reaching out to a family member, friend, or are interested in a creative business opportunity.

You are reaching out to a counselor, social worker, childcare worker or nurse for immediate assistance to overcome a challenge.

Possible Outcome: You could be experiencing a heartbreak or feeling betrayal on a deep level.

You may feel cold and distant and do not want to associate with others, seek a relationship, or attend any special events.

You are caught up in your own world and do not have time for others, or you are mired in a depression and cutting yourself off from others. You are not ready to seek assistance to overcome any of your challenges.

Your intuition is blocked, or you cannot act on your feelings, or protect someone who needs your help.

Then again, you may be unable to channel the energies of the Queen of Cups into your life. If this is the case, you probably have decided not to lose yourself in love and intimacy. You will instead work in a creative business and use your artistic talents to express your feelings through your work.

Timing: The Queen of Cups predicts an important event when intuition and emotions are turned into action. This event may occur in 1-3 days.
