What a beautiful blog! I have only just begun to get my "handle"on blogs and blogging and with my burgeoning interest in learning the Tarot, your site is quiet a wonderful find for me. The background on all the Queens (lovely deck, by the way) is great. I feel that, despite my Gemini air nature, that The Sybl of Cups is most "me". Very informative post, all the way around and I love how you've been able to find heroines to match each. I'll be sure to be back!
Hello Lise! :) Isn't the Sibyl of Cups lovely? I am so drawn to her but then again, I adore Mermaids! If you have any questions let me know! I love Tarot.
In my travels and readings, I have come to generally identify the Queens with sources of wisdom and comfort. All of them but one, that is: the Queen of Swords. That one still makes me uncomfortable, as my deck (as well as the other decks I read from though they do not belong to me) have associated that card with a particular person.
Now, it's not that I don't like Miss Swords--quite the contrary. She's a totally awesome person. However, the last time she played a major role in my life, it robbed me of my sanity.
I tend to have trouble interpreting all the court cards.
They don't seem to "speak to me" on a deeper level. You seem to understand the queen quite well.:-)
Great blog post
ThePhotoMan I get you! I had an incident with my own Queen of Cups self that made it very difficult for me to embrace her. I finally got through that but not without a great deal of work.
N.J., try naming them fictional characters. I know you are also a published author so it might be a useful trick for you as well.
I think this old queen is going to enjoy this excercise immensely. :)
Nice choice of cards.

Oh you beautiful queen! As talented as you are, you MUST be the Queen of Wands!
This was very helpful - and I love the imagery of this deck. I'm new to Tarot and appreciate the insights on how to interpret these cards. I think I'm going to pull out my new deck (Druidcraft Tarot) and see with fresh eyes.
Anne M, let me know what you see! I'm glad I could be of some help :)
