The Queen of Cups indicates that you have a clear dissatisfaction with one or more issues in your life, but mainly your faith and hope have deteriorated.
It is quite possible that instead of focusing on what you feel and addressing problems, you are permanently escaping through imagination.
Your creativity and imagination have always been thriving and have helped you, but now you are overusing them, creating worlds where problems do not exist or are already solved, thus avoiding any kind of confrontation and assimilation of the problem.
This results in your personality being changeable and unstable, you are trapped in a zone of melancholy and silence and it is very difficult for you to connect with your inner voice and with others.
You must be very careful not to get trapped in imaginary worlds, dominated by fantasies and replacing reality with daydreams.
This situation of being adrift and away from your emotions, at its worst, can lead you to become a person who uses manipulation and you may even have a dark thirst for revenge on everyone.
Others try to understand you, but your instability confuses them and slowly drains them dry, so that at some point they will no longer give you the support or attention you need and this will create a resentful and vengeful spirit.
On the other hand, this permanent anger and anguish that you feel may be nothing more than with you, because you recognize your situation but you feel annulled, unable to try more things to overcome what you live.
It is essential that you resolve before anything else, this enmity that you have with your own inner self so that you can then resolve your relationships with others.
Another important aspect is that you may be leaning too much on others to the point of having or generating co-dependent relationships.
