[Bhadra]

how funny, Samantha, this card comes up for me a lot too, along with the High Priestess, the Empress and the Queen of Pentacles this is one of my favorite cards.

Ok, I promised to "dummy up" a bit here and keep it simple so this time I'm just going to look at the card and see who and what she represents to my intuition. By the way, the the way I usually read is more intuitional as adding the intellectual or scholarly aspects sometimes just muddies the meaning for me and doing a reading on the fly I don't have time to do all that research.

Ok, I did a little research, but kept it simple on this one:

The Court cards can represent:

> The people in your life.

> Aspects of character and personality.

> Your sense of identity and knowledge of yourself.

> The roles you play.

> Events or situations coming into existence.

> Times or seasons of the year.

> Qualities you should cultivate to handle your situation.

Queens can stand for actual people in your life or different aspects of your personality. Unlike the other cards of the Tarot, Queens do not tend to represent situations in your life, but rather a type of personality. Queens express their suits from the inside, setting a tone without imposing it unlike the Kings tend to do.

    Queens recognize their power and display self-confidence, generosity, channels her feelings, emotions, dreams and visions through thought and she is able to make her points well with sensory information and practical knowledge.

    Queens are the mother figures of the Tarot and often symbolize mature women with some kind of authority or personal power. Queens represent creativity, love of nature, caring, fondness for children, a new level of understanding, or awareness. They tend to offer good advice and are good listeners.

    Queens influence the situation in a way described by their position in a spread. Several Queens in a reading may signify meeting or gatherings of many women. "She" can also represent a man or a sense of self in a man.

Questions you can consider when you receive the Queen of Cups:

Who wants to protect you and shower you with affection?
How are you working or expressing your unconscious?
How are you expressing your emotions?  
Who is inspiring you with their dreams and openness?

Speaking of Intuition, this lady is all about intuition. She is dreamy and sometimes psychic. Right now my intuition tells me this lady is mature...over 40, probably brunette with dark eyes.  Although the image in the card depicts lighter hair I'm seeing someone darker. Auburn hair would be about right.

She sits at the edge of the water, representing the tides of emotion, she sits on the beach, she has her feet firmly on the ground. She is a woman who can be trusted to be a stabalizing influence. You can confide in her about your feelings, she represents the Goddess in her most loving, compassionate aspect. She holds a chalice that is very ornate and sometimes represents The Holy Grail. An open, half clamshell is carved into the back of her throne, indicating a relationship to Neptune, God of the sea.  She will help you look into your emotions and delve into them deeply, directing correct action with compassionate understanding gleaned from a wide and varied experience. There are cherubs on her throne. This one "flies with the angels" and probably does a lot of angelic communication.

Her number is 4, her direction is West, her element is,  Water of Water, her planetary correspondence is Scorpio. She rules from 20 Degree Gemini to 20 Degree Cancer. Her season is Summer to Autumn.

This is a happy card. It indicates balance and harmony but this woman may lack common sense and is easily influenced by people and events around her, she goes with the flow but accomplishes high achievements through imagination. She is probably very artistic and sensual.

You are very welcome Samantha!  I'm glad I can contribute something cause as usual I doubted my ability to come up with anything that would be of use to the students in here. I'm having fun and learning a lot too. Glad I can help.  How about emailing me to discuss what your ideas are for that Advanced Class, what we need to do to get it launched and what you see as my role in that.
