Queen of Cups
The Queen of Cups represents emotional depth, kindness, and empathy. She is in touch with her feelings but maintains a boundary to protect herself from becoming overwhelmed by others' emotions. However, she can struggle with insecurity and can hold grudges, showing a tender side that is vulnerable to emotional pain.

General Meaning
The Queen of Cups only has a toe in the water. She is so close to the water—the emotion surrounds her—but she doesn’t descend into it or drench herself in other people’s emotion. She is often psychic; she is empathetic and kind. She isn’t insecure or shallow. She is deep and calm, and is a soothing balm to all who need her assistance. In most Basic decks, her cup is covered! Not only is she not going to spill her emotions, but she’s not going to share them easily, either. She will stop to carry a turtle across the road, and she will give a kind word to the sad faces she passes. She will put her heart where her mouth is.
Queen of Cups Inverted
She can sometimes come apart if you push her, though, and she holds grudges. She’s really insecure and holds on to the people around her with fingers so tight her knuckles go white. There is no kind of insecurity like emotional insecurity. It makes you so tender and vulnerable and easy to break.
