Cups • 13
Queen of Cups
Emotional wisdom, intuition, compassion without pity. She understands feelings—her own and others'—without getting lost in them. Water is her element, but she rules it, doesn't submit to it.
Drowning in her own emotions, manipulating others'. Intuition turns to paranoia, compassion to codependence. The cup in her hands is either overflowing or empty, but never balanced.
She sits by the water, holding a closed cup. Feels deeper than anyone, but doesn't drown—learned to swim in her own oceans.

- •Context matters — the same card can mean different things in different situations
- •Trust your intuition — if a card speaks to you differently, listen
- •Reversed doesn't mean bad — it often shows internal processes or blocked energy
- •Cards show possibilities, not fate — you always have the power to choose
