The Moon Tarot Card Description
(Description based on the original Smith-Waite tarot card)
The Moon tarot card shows a full moon set between two tall towers. The Moon represents intuition, dreams, and the unconscious mind. Its light reveals a path toward higher awareness between the towers. In the foreground, a small pool symbolizes the subconscious mind, with a crayfish emerging from it, signifying the conscious awareness beginning to emerge. Nearby, a domesticated dog and a wild wolf stand in a grassy field, howling at the Moon, representing the dual nature of our minds—the tame and the wild.
The Moon Tarot Card Upright
The upright Moon Tarot card signals that things are not as they appear. It is a card of intuition, urging you to trust your instincts to illuminate areas in your life that may contain deceptions and important things that may get overlooked. Don't allow fear and anxiety to cloud your judgment. Past issues or insecurities may be resurfacing. Take this time to do some reflection or shadow work. Your intuition is urging you to consider your feelings and actions.
If you're in a relationship and everything seems to be going well, pulling The Moon tarot card can represent doubt or insecurity in play. Underlying fears based on unresolved emotional trauma from the past may now be resurfacing, influencing your moods and interactions. If you're single, The Moon cautions you to be wary. Your date may not be as honorable as they appear. In either case, patience and clarity are essential before making major decisions. This emphasis on patience reassures you that taking your time and not rushing into anything is okay.
The Moon suggests uncertainty in your professional life when drawn in a career reading. Miscommunication with colleagues or superiors could create misunderstandings. Only make big financial gambles once you understand the situation better. The Moon can also point to mental health concerns such as anxiety or depression. Pay close attention to your intuition and seek medical advice if necessary. For women, it could also signal issues related to hormonal imbalances or the menstrual cycle. Listening to your body and addressing concerns as soon as they arise is super important!
The Moon Tarot Card Reversed
In its reversed polarity, the Moon Tarot card symbolizes release and revelations. If you've been struggling with uncertainty, clarity should be returning. However, it can also warn against self-deception, urging you to acknowledge your role in creating your current circumstances and avoid blurring the lines between fantasy and reality. On a positive note, issues like depression or anxiety may start to lift, leading to renewed confidence and clarity.
If you pull this card while in a relationship, The Moon reversed often brings deception or hidden truths to light. This revelation could involve an affair being exposed or the true state of your relationship becoming clear, especially if you've been avoiding hard truths. For singles, it suggests a return of self-confidence after a period of doubt and warns against ignoring red flags in potential partners. You may be overlooking signs of dishonesty because you don't want to face the truth, so it's important to listen to your instincts.
At work, The Moon reversed signals that any confusion or instability you've been facing will begin to clear. You may still be feeling a creative block, but your career path should be smooth sailing from here on out. If you've been unsure about your finances, this card signals that everything should clear soon.
Health-wise, the Moon reversed usually indicates an improvement in anxiety or depression. However, if other negative cards are present, it could suggest a worsening mental state. Overall, stability in your health is returning, and any awaited medical diagnoses should soon become clear. The Moon reversed tarot card also suggests you may be blocking or misinterpreting intuitive messages, but the abilities of the upright Moon are still accessible. Reconnect with your inner guidance to better understand the messages you're receiving.
