The Moon
You may be dealing with feelings of uncertainty today and wondering whether what you believe to be real is real or whether it’s all in your imagination.
The Moon card can refer to anxiety and confusion, based on an instinct that you can’t make rational sense of. You feel that something is “off” but can’t articulate your reasons for feeling so because it’s not based on evidence, only intuition.
It refers to mysteries and perplexities that are hard to unravel. You may working with insufficient information or you may be making assumptions based on feelings rather than facts. Either way you could run into opposition from others who challenge you to justify your instincts.
Don’t think for a moment though that you’re off-base. Usually there’s a ton of truth to these feelings, even if you can’t explain them. It’s a visceral understanding rather than a logical one, which can make trying to express it very frustrating.
In this version of the Card we see the Man (or Woman) in the Moon, framed by a backdrop of clouds, stars and seasons. All four main phases of the Moon are here, with the largest one — the full Moon — shining high in the night sky. It’s face looks worn and weary, with one eye open and one eye closed. This is such a great representation of the fear and paranoia that can accompany this card.
Two turrets stand on either side of the Moon and a river flows between them with a crawfish (or crab, the symbol for Moon-ruled Cancer) reaching toward it. This rising up out of the water (emotions) and reaching toward the light has been compared to the process of emerging from the birth canal. This is also fitting as the Moon is tied to women’s cycles as well as to shedding light onto the unknown.
This is the message behind the Moon card. It encourages you to not be so afraid of the dark. It inspires you to explore the hidden mysteries of your own dreams and desires, as well as your hopes and your fears.
The Moon card tells us that the future has not yet been written and that things are still very much up in the air. But if you follow your instincts and listen to your own inner voice, the message you are meant to hear becomes clear.
