Upright meaning
Deep feeling held steadily. The Queen of Cups reads people accurately and does not drown in what she picks up — compassion with a boundary around it.

Queen of Cups reversed
Absorbing everyone else's state until your own is unfindable, or care given in order to be needed.
Reversal does not flip Queen of Cups into its opposite. The same force is present but blocked, turned inward, or overdone — which of the three applies is decided by the cards around it. The keywords shift to overwhelm, martyrdom, emotional leaking.
In love
A partner with real emotional intelligence, or the call to be that for someone else.
