Meaning of The Moon
The Moon lights a path between two towers, but her deceptive light distorts what we see. She represents the realm of imagination, dreams and fears: a territory where not everything is as it seems. She announces uncertainty, anxiety or confusion, but also powerful intuition. Move slowly, tell the real from the projected and trust your instinct.
“I cross uncertainty guided by my intuition.”
The Moon reversed
Reversed, The Moon usually announces that the fog is beginning to lift: confusion eases, a deception comes to light or your fears lose strength once you name them. It can also show that you still repress emotions that ask to be heard. Clarity is near; keep walking.
Themes it touches
- Illusion. What you see may not be what is.
