In divination
Good, fair woman; honest, devoted woman, who will do service to the Querent; loving intelligence, and hence the gift of vision; success, happiness, pleasure; also wisdom, virtue; a perfect spouse and a good mother.
Reversed: The accounts vary; good woman; otherwise, distinguished woman but one not to be trusted; perverse woman; vice, dishonour, depravity.
The library's note
Beautiful and dreamy, "as one who sees visions in a cup," the Queen is also, Waite insists, no passive figure, "she sees, but she also acts, and her activity feeds her dream." She carries the suit's feeling as intuition that moves rather than merely receives, named across his compiled readings as loving, devoted, and wise. Of cups' four court ranks she sits closest to the water itself, imagination and action folded into a single figure.
