Upright Meaning:
The Queen of Cups upright in a love reading is good because you know your own emotions.
If you have a partner right now, you’re in a really stable time of feeling fulfilled and balanced. If you are single: this is the time to get out there! What you find will be healthy, caring, and fun!
The Queen of Cups upright in a love reading could also be a reminder to speak your mind and make sure your partner knows how you feel.
Finally, this queen could be a person in your love life. Whoever they are, they will be just like her: strong, feminine, and caring. You are fortunate to have this presence in your life at all and to have it in your love life is really lovely.
Reversed Meaning:
If you pull this card reversed in a love reading, emotions are blocked. You are not letting your partner get close to you because you fear dishonesty. You cannot be in a healthy relationship without trust though, so let go of your issues to move forward.
The Queen of Cups reversed is not the best person to be around, unlike her upright counterpart. If you are acting sulky or notice that your partner is not quite themselves, this is what the Queen of Cups is trying to bring your attention to. You (or your partner) need some time alone to let go of insecurities and allow yourself to be vulnerable. A good relationship has to involve those involved in exposing their vulnerabilities.
