When a queen appears in a reading, it means that there is someone in the querent's life who can provide needed help and advice.

Finding a queen in a reading is like finding a fairy godmother. More than any of the other court cards, the queens actually want to help the querent, and they have the wisdom—and sometimes the power—to do so. They often wield a quiet, behind-the-scenes influence that is nevertheless formidable. Not only are they willing and able to assist, they can do so in different ways. They are founts of good advice based on maturity, experience, and accomplishment. They are also skilled and able to provide valuable services. 

A queen's sway may not always be easy to see or quantify. A quiet word in the right "someone's" ear here, a small act at the right time there. These nearly invisible actions can yield important results. Gaining her favor is not always easy, though. Queens may inexplicably take a liking to someone, solicitously offering help. Or they could just as easily take a dislike to someone, playing the role of an enemy instead. Part of the queen's allure and mystique is that she is like an iceberg: most of her power works below the surface.

All the queens can play the role of friend, mentor, cheerleader, and role model. They enjoy being recognized for their skills and experience. In exchange, they can offer advice and help. Each queen has her own areas of specialty.
