"queen of cups": "She is imaginative, poetic, kind, yet not willing to take much trouble for another. Coquettish, good-natured, and underneath a dreamy appearance. Imagination stronger than feeling. Very much affected by other influences, and therefore more dependent upon dignity than most symbols.",

Raised upward, it invokes the divine crown of spiritual brightness, but reversed it is the invocation of demonic force and becomes a fearfully evil symbol. It represents, therefore, very great power for good or evil, but invoked; and it also represents whirling force and strength through trouble. It is the affirmation of Justice upholding divine authority; and it may become the Sword of Wrath, Punishment, and Affliction.",
