Card of the Week: 3/28/2016

Hello, Tarot Friends! Sorry for the missed week last week, but the universe sent me a mandatory break from all things internet during my Spring Break--our cabin at Hocking Hills didn't have internet! This week I'm getting back into the swing of my normal, daily life, which means I'm back into the swing of bringing you the Card of the Week. Let's get to it!

Card of the Week: The Queen of Cups

Card Description:

The queen, wearing an impressive headdress that shows her rank, holds the cup outward, as if to present a gift to a worthy friend (paraphrased from The Tarot of the Cat People).


Archetypal Meaning(s): 

Being a court card, this card most often represents a person. This card denotes a warm-hearted and fair person. It can signify someone who is poetic, beloved, and adored. Sometimes this indicates a wife and/or mother. It is a sign of practicality, honesty, and a loving intelligence. 

What it says to me:
I always struggle to interpret court cards like this one, mostly because I don't like to say things like "a kind person will enter your life this week." However, this card likely means that the influence of someone kind and honest will be in the air this week, whether this person is you or someone close to you.

In my personal case, I hope this is a sign of me settling well back into my role as a mentor and tutor at my AmeriCorps position after our spring break.

So, gimme a shout out in the comments. Does the Queen of Hearts resonate this week? Does the card remind you of anyone you know?
