“There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.”

-Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

The Queen of Cups’ warmth and empathy are evident the moment you meet her. This is a listener who is not quick to judge, and the wisdom of her advice can strike like an epiphany.

You won’t find her at any glitzy parties, unless it’s to lend a friend moral support. She’s the quiet one, a little underdressed, observing the glamourous surroundings with impressed amusement. She’d much prefer a small informal gathering. She’ll put together a guest list focused on introducing creatives to the right collaborators and financial backers, and make sure the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly enough to let the magic of connection happen.

This practice of creating the right environment for something to flourish but not forcing it is her primary mode of influence. She particularly likes to use it to help those in healing professions, cultural institutions, or the arts. Her own creativity seeks outlets that will benefit her tribe or culture. She’d like to you try your hand at watercolors. She’d like you to become a member of a museum or to join a writing workshop. She’d like you to be a good listener. She’d like you to do some soul-searching for your true purpose.
