A lovely figure, the Connolly Queen of Cups, is floating on the sea. How she reminds us of the High Priestess, tho without turtle! She does, however, have a dolphin playmate who is attached by a cord tied around his flipper and leading to her wrist. He is leaping high into the air, carefree but tethered. Are they communicating through their thoughts? At her feet are two red roses. She is dressed in a robe of deep pink satin and her cloak is a creamy satin, lined with a resonant light blue. In her right hand is a golden cup; in her left is the book of the law, or maybe it is the writings within our own subconscious mind. She wears a crown of jewels. The sea is slightly choppy. She gazes out with those same eyes that see deeply within. She seems to be preoccupied with the unseen world and draws us into her reverie. She is seated upon a deep pink throne, and the sky is filled with pale to deep pink clouds against a medium-blue sky.
Joan Bunning says: "Because she has a sweet, loving and sensitive nature, the Queen of Cups has a kind word for everyone and never reacts with anger or impatience. There is a gentleness about her that soothes and calms. Compassion is her watchword. Her reactions to the world are guided by her feelings. In all matters, she lets her heart lead the way. She senses emotional currents and knows what others are experiencing without having to ask. She is never moody, but understands moods and their influence. She trusts her intuition and so is more open to knowledge that comes from within herself and beyond. She is often moved by the beauty and tragedy of life. The Queen of Cups feels deeply and has a reverence for all aspects of God's creation. Her love includes and embraces everyone and everything."
