The Moon
intuition · illusion · dreams · uncertainty
Upright Meaning
The Moon lights only part of the path. Feelings are loud and facts are dim — do not mistake fear for prophecy.
Symbolism
A full moon with a face inside a crescent glows over a winding road that runs between two towers. A wolf and a dog howl below; a crayfish crawls out of a dark pool at the front. Instinct, tame mind, wild mind, and the deep unconscious are all awake at once — and the road runs right through the middle of them.
Love & Relationships
Confusion, jealousy, or unspoken feelings need light. Ask directly.
Career & Money
Information is incomplete. Do not sign anything you don't understand.
Advice
Feel it, then check it. Not every fear is a fact.
Reversed Meaning
Reversed, The Moon lifts a fog. Something once hidden becomes clear, or a fear you have been feeding turns out to be smaller than it looked in the dark. Speak the thing aloud and watch it lose its size.
Reversed Advice
Ask the direct question. The imagined answer is almost always heavier than the real one.
