For me for a long time it has been the Queen of Swords, but she feels wrong for me now. Though I have my relapses now and then; actually she now feels more like a shadow card.

AS for current personality card I am not sure to be honest.
This is why I made this thread. To see what YOU identify with in the court cards.

Queen of Cups

Empathetic and intuitive are words that best describe the Queen of Cups. If you are like her, you likely find it easy to put yourself in others' shoes and may be more affected than most by the moods of those around you. You very rarely see things in black and white terms- and very easily read between the lines and find the grey in most situations.

You feel things very deeply- not just in terms of what happens to you, but also by what happens in the world around you. You appreciate and are moved by art and music- beauty and tragedy. You are kind and open-hearted and feel love and compassion even for the darkest of souls. Most of the time your capacity to love is an admirable and beautiful thing. But, if it hasn't already, unfortunately, it will get you into trouble at one point or another. Sadly, most Queen of Cups will learn the hard way that some souls can't be redeemed. And some people don't want to be saved.

But many do. And you are a wonderfully supportive and kind friend and lover. You're a wonderful listener, and many friends and family come to you for a shoulder to cry on. Again, just be careful to have clearly defined boundaries and look out for yourself first. Since you are so influenced by what others are feeling, you want to be careful that you do not get sucked into highly emotional situations unnecessarily.

EDIT:
The odd thing is that this is very true for me, or has been in the past; and by realizing that I was a little unable to set boundaries, I sort of slid into the "shadow" of it, which for me is the Queen of Swords.

posted August 17, 2013 07:28 AM            

The idealistic card then would be: Queen of Wands and Queen of Cups

The Shadow card: Queen of Swords

The Neutral card: Queen of Pentacles

Branching out to all court cards it gets definitely difficult.

Well, my absolute "hate-card" is the Knight of Swords, closely followed by the King and Queen of Swords (no, I donīt like the Swords cards too much; they remind me too closely of the trappings of my own mind

As for "love cards" there are actually a few:
Right now I weirdly have a soft spot for the Page of Wands (but that is a pretty new development there. lol)

I also like the Knight of Wands, Knight of Cups, Queen of Cups, Queen of Wands.

"neutral" cards:
Well, the Queen of Pentacels, though it is already tilted a little to the positive.
However the Knight of Pentacles, though I couldn`t care less about him, is already a little tilted in the negative.

Calm, cool and collected- that's the Queen of Swords. If you are like her, it's nearly impossible to ruffle your feathers- as you are able to stay grounded and rational in most situations. Your primary objective is to uncover the truth- to face the reality of your circumstances and make objective decisions armed with that knowledge. When dealing with others and making related judgements- you are fair, balanced and impartial. Because you are perceived as a bit uptight on the surface, others will be surprised by how open-minded you really are. Friends come to you for objective advice, and they love your wicked & witty sense of humor. But folks should be warned- you are crazy smart and have a finely-tuned ******** detector. If there is one thing you will not tolerate- it is deception. And If you suspect that someone has been dishonest, you can be ruthless in uncovering their deceit. And when you confront them, your words will cut very deep. Fortunately for most liars & cheats, you typically see through them from day one- so they will never see this side of you. You take pride in your intelligence and your independence. While you are a good and loyal friend, it can be difficult for others to feel comfortable around you. And it takes you a while to open up. Work on letting your guard down just a bit- everyone already knows not to mess with you. It wouldn't hurt to show your softer side- especially when it comes to dating & your love life. A tough, independent chick who can hold her own is sexy for sure. Just don't cross the line & scare all the guys away before they get to know how cool and incredibly you really are.

quote:

The Queen of Wands is confident, bold, strong and sexy as hell. This woman knows what she wants and goes after it full force- although she is much more subtle than her male counterpart- the King of Wands. She has a way of getting what she wants by aligning herself with others, working together and finding areas of mutual benefit.

If you are like her, you are driven by your interests and passions. It's very important that you do work that inspires you- you are not the type of person who can work 9-5 doing something you hate just to pay the bills. Your life has a higher purpose- and you will be happiest if you are able to follow your calling.

You are assertive and can stand up for yourself- but you are never harsh or abrasive. You use your charm to smooth over any rough spots and usually end up getting others to see things your way without much fuss.

You are creative and bold- and need to be in an environment where you are given free reign to explore and create.

You are friendly, extroverted and likely have a large circle of friends. You enjoy a good adventure and have likely explored some exotic parts of the world. In general, you get a thrill from getting close to the flame, but are smart enough to know when to pull back so that you don't get burned. ;-)

I do like to step in for the Queen of Swords here. That lonely and bitter thing applied to her card feels really outdated. I don't see her that way at all. She is one of the few cards with an upright sword (proper judgement). How is she bitter? She has life experiences and a clear mind (to put those experiences in perspective). She is also facing the future (right). The lonely/bitter thing comes from times when women were 'widows' & it was perceived (by society) as a 'bad/sad' thing to be on her own. You can also say she finally freed herself (wire on pulse) & left it behind her (facing right).
Single for quite some time. Yes. She can show that way, but it really is not the first thing applied to this card at all.
Bitterness & resentment applies to reversed cards in my opinion. Or a queen Swords (if used as an indicator) plus 5 cups, etc.
I think the Queen of Swords is a lovely queen with great qualities and they are overshadowed by an outdated look on the meaning of this card.

Edit:the description i posted shows a lot of things but definetly not bitter...if anything a lot of women fancy themselves as having these traits even when they don't lol.
but to be fair yes a lot of outdated meanings to the cards (i even do that with cartomancy before noticing we are in the 21st century ...so guilty of that myself to...sometimes.

This is a good representation, pretty accurate. But do let me say I do often feel like the bitterness applies to me. A more outdated notion still is that she's mean and scheming, which is not 100% true either obvs.

[plus the less one reads the likes of biddytarot the better of course]

Lately, it's been Queen of Swords because I have stuff I need to do and the QoC and QoP cannot cut it separately. QoS makes me more organizational and effective towards making a list and marking down each priority.

My bf sees me as QoS as well. Before we started dating, I used to pull cards and read for him, the QoC kept coming up. I said at that time, "Hey, you have a crush on someone, want to tell me who it is? I won't tell anyone!" I was in a relationship at that time, so his response would be maybe lol. He told me later when I was single that it was me .

I think she just sees through facades, analyses people's actions, that kind of thing. in my case i use my infamous "i didn't deserve this, so since this happened I am not obliged to be nice and I'm not obliged to be grateful to life, it had better prove me it deserves my love/gratitude"

It's not rumination/introspection/flow. It's a logical system. Treated me wrong? Enjoy my new attitude!

the queen of swords, usually i won't say bitter, but shows a sad and lonely woman depending on the other cards, or simply a divorcee.

or otherwise when good cards surround it one who is really just, regardless of how harsh she may seem. (ie doesn't care what people would think won't repeat cliches and may take actions which others deem as harsh (hence the bitter kind of idea)) but in truth is 'balancing out' things where are lot of wrong, which could be hidden to others but which she saw or took notice off did happen.

I don't know an upside down and not well aspected queen of cups isn't so lovey dovey either. she reminds me in these cases of all those 'love crimes' one hears about, someone kills or injures another because they couldn't come to grips with their emotions or control them, and end up doing really bad stuff to others.
