The Moon

the moon

All shadow and shimmer. Nothing here is exactly what you think it is, including the way you're feeling about it.

Upright The Moon

The Moon is the card of illusion, intuition, and the things that look different in the dark. It shows a path between two towers, walked under a moonlit sky, uncertain, dreamlike, populated by fears that may or may not be real.

Drawing The Moon often means you're moving through a season where the truth isn't obvious. Trust your gut more than your eyes. The Moon doesn't ask you to have certainty; it asks you to walk anyway.

The Moon doesn't ask you to have certainty; it asks you to walk anyway.

Reversed The Moon

Reversed, The Moon can mean fear losing its grip: the truth surfacing, the projection dissolving, the dream you mistook for reality finally clarifying. The fog is lifting.

It can also indicate ongoing self-deception. You know what you're not telling yourself. The Moon reversed says: name it, even just to yourself. The naming is the hard part.
