Queen of Hearts as a Birth Card

People of this card know how to love through care. They sense who is cold, who is hungry, who is sad, and try to help. Beauty, comfort and enjoying life matter to them.

The Queen of Hearts' home is open to guests, and her table is rarely empty. Her task is to care for others without forgetting that she needs care too.

• Care. You sense other people's needs and know how to meet them.
• Hospitality. It is cosy to be with you; people want to stay.
• A sense of beauty. You make everything you touch more beautiful.
• Emotional wisdom. You understand people's feelings well.

Care can become smothering. The person looks after others so closely that they give them no independence, and dissolve into that role themselves.

A love of pleasure also needs limits: food, shopping and comfort can become ways of muffling an inner emptiness.

You are a tender, caring and sensual partner. You make a home people want to come back to and surround those you love with attention.

Don't become your partner's mother. A relationship of equals brings more joy than the permanent role of guardian.

The Queen of Hearts feels at home in work of care and beauty: medicine and care work, teaching, hotels and restaurants, cooking, interior design, psychology, working with children.

Her success grows wherever people feel like welcome guests.

The Queen is the second-highest court card of the suit, after the King. Her days fall in the second half of the year, from high summer to the run-up to the New Year in December, when the warmth of home is especially precious.
