MOON 18 - elements, reflected light, visible world, material forms, symbolism The card depicts three elements: air, earth, water. Moon-Hecate is depicted in three phases as a silver disk with a feminine outline. It dimly illuminates objects with a weak light. Under the Moon - a giant crab in a puddle - personifies the cosmic mind in the early stages of its unfolding. Sentry weight - tamed nature and wolf wild nature; one of them barks, the other howls at the moon. Behind them are two castles in the form of rectangular (sometimes round) flesh-colored towers, bordered with gold - a sign of human protection in the sublunary world. Long yellow rays stream from the moon's disk, mixing with short red rays. Drops of dew fall as if attracted by the moon. This is a picture of involution, of entering a world of ghosts and imagination. The transformative vision of things is realized in the moonlight. The crab, like the Egyptian scarab, absorbs what alchemists define as the temporary and volatile element and promotes new beginnings. Animals howling at the Moon speak of the danger of entering the sphere of the Moon, of the mysterious connections of the animal kingdom with the regions of the Moon. Towers - a sign of protection and refuge - warn that too close to the lunar region is fraught with danger to the soul. The two towers introduce a choice situation. Beyond the towers is a plain, followed by a forest full of ghosts. Behind it is a “two-headed” mountain and an abyss bordered by a stream of water. The moon watches the birth of the spirit in the material world. Number 18, adding up to 9, gives the image of a hermit who has undergone the first initiation. Another Tarot card shows an image of a harpist singing to a young girl letting down her hair in the moonlight. This image correlates with the deadly properties of the Moon. The harper is a common symbol of death (and the desire for death), and the girl is a symbol of the soul. This card gives instructions regarding the "lunar" path (using intuition, imagination, magic) as different from the solar one (reason, reflection, objectivity). In a negative sense, it speaks of a delusion associated with arbitrary fantasy, a false impression.

DESCRIPTION OF THE IMAGE ON THE MAP

“The face in the magnifying glass is Diana, the goddess of nomads,” says Gypsy Lee. - This is, first of all, a card of a dreamer indulging in illusions, a young man reflecting on the meaning of life. This is the card of a romantic, an artist, a thinker and a student...” (in the Middle Ages, they would probably say: a card of a knight-errant and a student).

In the foreground of the picture is water falling down, a symbol of the unconscious. In the water there is a cancer that is moving backwards - a symbol of a creature that is afraid to move forward and runs back into the dark depths.

On many new Tarot cards, especially popular with young people today (all of them clearly go back to the tradition of the Tarot of Provence, “Tarot of Marseille”), a road leading from bottom to top passes by the “sea of ​​cancer”. The options that arose based on the study of the legends of modern nomads and the predictions of occultists are often compared; the series of Tarots of Wirth and Wegmüller arise. It is believed that on this path from bottom to top one may encounter unpleasant spirits or ghosts, as well as collapsing buildings (fortresses, towers in which prisoners are imprisoned, border booths).

Gypsies, for example, say: “In this picture you see a black dog - the spawn of the devil - who barks at a magnifying glass, and a werewolf or a blood-sucking vampire who seeks out his victims at night. And on the same map you see two towers - these are the Pillars of Hercules, which in ancient times were believed to indicate the direction at dusk, on the other side of this world” (Starki).

But a person who is not afraid of any superstitions will pass between both towers that threaten him, or, as fortune tellers say, “perhaps the sentries who guard these fortresses are so cowardly and superstitious that they do not stick their noses out at night.” Then the wandering school

The lyar will see that in the kingdom of the lunar goddess it can be as light as day from the shining moon, that not only night fears lurk here, but also fireballs, sparks, drops of dew can shine, they fertilize the earth and affirm the victory of life.

INTERPRETATION IN DIVINATION

Extravagant fantasies, whims, stupidity, tactless curiosity, mental passivity, intrigues, flattery. (NJSS)

MARSEILLE FROM SITE

Golden towers of the eternal city, heavenly Jerusalem; water blocking the path; drops rushing upward. Dogs as guardians of the Underworld (keepers of secrets): in all myths they cannot be killed, they can only be outwitted (Hercules and Cerberus). Domesticated dogs are man's best friends (Odysseus and Argo), a symbol of instinctive wisdom. Cancer is a symbol of danger (Hercules fighting Hydra) or a “bridge”. The moon hides its dark side from us.

XV: Impotence. Frigidity. Surgery on the genital organs. XX; Physical or spiritual liberation. XXI; The difficulties will be short-lived. 0: Pain. Crash.

Traditional deities: Poseidon, Hermes, Psychopomp (Guide of souls). This card is the lowest hypostasis of the Moon (in contrast to the Priestess, who represents its highest hypostasis), the Moon is waning, dark, as the Indians say. All superstitions, prejudices, outdated traditions and boring habits are associated with it. It can also be severe intoxication, fears, confusion of mind (from drugs and other “heavy” means of influence). The higher senses do not work, only smell and touch remain. How much courage is needed not to fall, not to perish in the darkness! But after the night comes dawn. Illusions go away, nightmares recede, a person finds himself again.

Symbolism of the picture: at the top of the card - the Moon and huge shadows that seem to be deities (this is Anubis1 and his reflection); but the scarab Khepri is already rising from below, rolling the ball of the Sun in front of it: dawn comes, and the ancient landscape again opens up before us in all its purity. 1 - God of twilight, but also god of the threshold, i.e. moving to a new level, like the Greek Janus.

Possible interpretations: In a favorable position: a harbinger of important changes, perhaps requiring a crisis, but cleansing (“catharsis”). In an unfavorable position: deception or self-deception, hypocrisy, hysteria; perhaps psychosis. Creating or inducing illusions (including drug addiction).

Tarot cards have enormous magical power that cannot be compared with the power of a playing deck of cards. By using them wisely in your hands, you can extract from them the maximum information on issues that concern you and find the right solution for the current situation. In this material we will reveal in detail the meaning of the eighteenth arcana - Moon Tarot.

In the career field

The appearance of the lasso will tell you about uncertainty about what will happen tomorrow (fear of dismissal), about your abilities, professional significance or strength. An important aspect is that a person continues to be afraid even in cases where he is firmly convinced that there is no real threat. This indicates the presence of deep psychological root causes located deep in our subconscious.

We may not be aware of their presence, but despite this they force us to face our fear again and again. Only by being able to honestly admit this fear to yourself and meeting it halfway, coming face to face with your inner monsters, can you get rid of the root of this problem.

In the sphere of consciousness

Indicates the emergence of unique opportunities, but which are accompanied by serious danger. You will need to delve deeper into your subconscious, descend into the Underworld, described in myths as the kingdom.

The danger we face is within ourselves - in forgetting our true Self and indulging our inner desires. A person can make a cult of esotericism; it becomes the only possible reality for him, replacing the events of his real life.

There is also another danger lurking here - you can play with your subconscious and reach the point where, as people say, “it blows your mind.” Therefore, it is important to always maintain a reasonable balance in life so that the esoteric does not come to the fore.

Arcana Moon Tarot meaning in relationships

The appearance of the card indicates a romantic, dreamy nature, which lives according to subtle emotions in the world of its own fantasies and tends to constantly “hover in the clouds.” At the same time, a person suffers from uncertainty in his own capabilities and abilities, and a feeling of fear. There may be partnerships in which lovers are very jealous of each other, there are constant resentments, and both or one partner is terrified of being left alone.

But if you get this lasso, it indicates that people will have the opportunity to work through these complexes coming from childhood, and they will be able to eliminate them once and for all.

Uncertainty about the partner and the prospects of the emerging relationship. This is precisely the meaning of the Moon.

The towers depicted on the map symbolize the search for protection, control, and the desire to cling to accepted values. The towers are outposts on the border between consciousness and the unconscious. The moon is the path to the inner world, the world of darkness, dreams and dreams.

During the Devil's attack on the Creator's creatures, he defended his creations by putting dogs on them. In the image of the card there is Anubis - a creature between a wolf and a dog. He stands on the threshold between life and darkness in his dual guise as a jackal-man.

The meaning of the Moon in various layouts

For career and work

There is no stability, there is a fear of not finding your path, niche, profession and calling. In the life of the questioner there is deception and disorder, the vagueness of the future does not give peace and tranquility. The process of rebuilding and becoming a person is underway, but there are difficulties in the form of unforeseen circumstances.

Misunderstandings and conflicts arise due to omissions and lack of reliable information. As a result, tension accumulates in relationships with colleagues and partners. There may be deception on the part of the manager or partners; they promised to pay and did not fulfill their promise; they were framed. The person seems to be in a bad dream.

Hidden motives, lies and ambiguity, disappointment in the matter in which the questioner is engaged. Constant fear of shame and deception leads to neuroses and breakdowns, and conversations in a raised voice.

The Moon represents creative professions such as artists, writers, psychologists, magicians, actors, advertising and show business, that is, professions where the reflection of the internal state into the external manifestation of the material world is important.

For finances and property

The Moon indicates unstable financial income, crisis, and variability in financial situation. A person wastes money and does not know how to manage it correctly. Questionable transactions, the risk of investing money in an unreliable business and going broke. Money issues have a murky background. There is a risk of becoming dependent on money and chaotic consumption and acquisition of goods.

For love and relationships

In most cases, the Moon falling in a relationship indicates a partner’s betrayal

Tarot card Moon meaning in relationships indicates betrayal, there are ulterior motives and lies. The partner is playing a double game; he cannot tell the truth, but he is also not happy with this game. From the very beginning, the partner was not entirely free and the relationship was superficial, but he did not say so, and now everything has gone very far and there is no way out in sight. There is no way to rely on your partner and it is better not to trust him.

The moon symbolizes false friends, lies, intrigue and slander. There is fog, uncertainty and uncertainty in relationships. An unstable union with many ups and downs, both emotional and sexual. Relationships are built on omissions, unsaid words, withholding information; partners actually don’t know anything about each other.

The card indicates scandals, quarrels and discord, silence, something unspoken, unsaid and hanging between partners like a foggy canopy of speculation. Partners flounder in their lies and omissions, cannot tell each other everything, are mistaken and do not see each other’s hidden meanings. A completely incomprehensible and confusing situation, I should have said everything already, but I can’t help but say it.

The moon represents deep instincts, needs, unconscious aspirations and yearnings. She is mysterious, doubtful, bewitches with her dark attractiveness, affects the most intimate parts of the human soul, which he hides from everyone, even from himself.

The card serves as a significator of forbidden relationships and affects the hidden part of the soul with its erotic experiences. A person is afraid of these experiences and carefully hides them in the corners of his soul.

Inside the human soul there is an awakening of something that he carefully hid, but he is unable to stop this process; irrational forces control the situation. But you should not be afraid of this, the path of the Moon is the road of fantasies, myths, emotions, awe and exploration of the unknown, the hidden depths of your soul. Diving into the mysteries will help answer the eternal questions: “Who am I and what am I doing here?”

A person needs to feel a connection with Higher powers by immersing himself in his subconscious, giving freedom to his inner instinct, then he will feel harmony and interconnection with the universe. The questioner has come a long way to turn back, but his own fear prevents him from getting closer to the inner truth.

In a relationship, this is the initial phase when partners look closely at each other, while they are in an anxious state and do not fully understand whether they need this relationship or not, but they are drawn to each other. Relationships on the Moon are intoxicating, seductive and there is a strong attraction. Partners are not able to explain why they love each other; the connection exists on its own. The moon represents secret relationships that are hidden and not advertised. Sometimes it's just a dream about a relationship, an illusion and ephemerality.

The questioner's partner is obsessed with him, he does not give him freedom and takes away his personal space. Obsession, instinctive need for a person, blind craving, unrequited love. The partner is in a state of grief, depression, despair, and there is a possibility of suicide. The questioner's feelings are weaker; he loves because he is loved.

The querent has lunar magnetism, he dominates his partner so much that he is ready to howl at the moon. His will is so strong that his partner cannot destroy the union; he is very attached. The partner entered into such a relationship so as not to be alone, at least with someone, he has a weak will, he is driven by an irrational meaning that he does not understand. A person does not have the strength to do otherwise.

The Moon indicates a weak, insecure partner who creates non-existent problems with his fears. The person is confused, very worried about the future, does not understand what is happening, complete confusion, leading him to melancholy and despair. He is very vulnerable because he has lost touch with people and reality. And the more he is afraid, the more he plunges into a quagmire of emotions and fears; there may have been mental trauma in childhood, which resulted in a state of emotional dependence on other people.

The card carries symbols of moisture and fertility, the power of instincts and emotions. The Moon focuses on the energy of sexuality. It carries deep internal impulses, dissolution in irrational experience, gaining new sexual experience, going beyond the ordinary. The transition from quantity to quality, sex as a special state of mind.

The Moon indicates fears, sexual experiences and diving into the depths of the soul. A person is subject to sensual experiences, emotions, he is immersed in romanticism, charm, and trusts in impulses of passion. The questioner is at the mercy of the unconscious and the wisdom of ancient instincts.

The questioner is the personification of a caring mother for his partner. He has the ability to penetrate the soul; his partner next to him experiences all his emotions. The partner gives in and behaves as if under a spell. He thinks that he has come under bad influence, but in reality he has given himself over to his secret experiences.

For health status

A person escapes from reality with the help of alcohol, drugs, gambling, constant fears, hysterics. Experiences make themselves felt by deterioration of the general condition, nausea and chills. A person experiences problems with the genitourinary system, swelling, infectious diseases, also poisoning, stuttering, muteness, apathy, autism, depression. The moon represents hereditary diseases on the maternal side, pregnancy.

The meaning of a reversed card

The Tarot moon reversed means that deception is being revealed, minor mistakes and miscalculations are possible, which are worth worrying about. A person loses his illusions, the cessation of unclear situations and lies, and the overcoming of harmful influences. The questioner achieved success by going over the heads, at someone else’s expense.

Weakness, irrational qualities, unwillingness to accept the existence of other worlds. A person does not want to accept information that comes to him from above. Constantly being in fears and doubts. The questioner is faced with frightening circumstances and memories of past lives.

Combined with other cards

How is the Tarot Moon interpreted in combination with other cards:

  • With the Fool - a tendency towards occult activities, wandering along the roads of the unconscious outside of worldly conditioning, can also manifest itself as a mental illness;
  • With the Magician - excellent extrasensory abilities, intuition;
  • With the Priestess - the need to finally speak out and clarify relations. The combination may indicate pregnancy. It is also a powerful combination for creativity and working with the inner world. Like the Priestess, the Moon points to something secret (just not so sacred, rather intimate, hidden from the eyes of people).
  • With the Empress - depression due to everyday troubles. Emotional imbalance, typical during pregnancy. Regarding finances - profit, but not as large as expected.
  • With Death - depression, apathy, loss of strength;
  • With the Devil is a fairly typical indicator of drug addiction;
  • With the Star - a good combination, serenity, peace, peace. This is exactly the case when the Moon can be interpreted positively;
  • With the Sun - confidence replaces anxiety, clarity and insight comes in the place of everything chaotic, hidden and foggy;

Ancient fortune telling on cards... Many people dream of mastering this art. Today we will try to comprehend the basic techniques of this mysterious ritual. We’ll also find out what the dropped Moon Tarot card means, what it warns about and what it advises you to pay attention to.

What are Tarot cards?

Humanity has always been attracted by the unknown

and mystical. Since ancient times, people have wanted to know what awaits them in the future. At all times, there have been fortune tellers, priests, shamans, and sorcerers who were ready to answer all the questions of their “clients.” Are these cards of great interest to people? What are they needed for? How did you appear? It is known that mastering the art of interpreting these ancient signs is quite difficult, and not everyone can do it. First you need to understand for yourself what they are. Tarot is a deck of 78 cards. They appeared in the XIV-XVI centuries. Nowadays they are used, as a rule, for fortune telling. The deck is divided into two groups:

Major Arcana. They are called "trump cards". There are 22 cards. Each of them has its own original drawing.

Minor Arcana. There are 56 cards. They are divided into 4 suits: Cups, Swords, Denarii, Wands.

It is immediately worth noting that the Moon card we are considering belongs to the major arcana. There are different variations of the deck: Visconti-Sforza, Marseilles, Rider-Waite Tarot and so on.

The mystery of the appearance of mystical pictures

It is not known for certain where these ancient mysterious signs came from. There are legends about the origin of Tarot cards. So, according to one of them, these symbols appeared in the 15th century in Italy. Back then they were luxurious handmade cards. There are other, less plausible legends about the origin of these ancient symbols. One of them says that these cards were brought to Palestine by Moses, who led his people out of Egypt. It was said that in this country there was an ancient temple in which rites of occult initiation were performed. There were special symbols on the walls of the room. Each mystery was held in a separate room. And there were 22 of them in total. Images from the walls of the rooms later gave names to the Great Arcana of the Tarot. Some scientists trace the history of the creation of ancient symbols. Be that as it may, there are no reliable sources about the origin of the cards.

Several rules for fortune telling using Tarot cards

A beginner who decides to comprehend all the secrets of fortune telling through ancient mysterious symbols needs to be very careful and careful. After all, with an illiterate approach to the mystical ritual, you can provoke the emergence of major troubles in your life. First you need to learn a few rules for handling cards:

It is better to start getting acquainted with Tarot cards with a classic deck. Here we can highlight two of the most popular variations: “Age of Aquarius” and “Universal Waite Tarot”.

There are no negative cards in the deck. They need to be interpreted in a friendly and understanding language. The negative symbolism of the card warns or gives instructions on how to avoid trouble.

Cards can answer any question. But you need to ask it in such a way that you can answer “Yes” or “No”.

Only constant practice of fortune telling will give good results. As a person improves, he will learn to correctly interpret layouts, and a channel of wisdom and clairvoyance will open.

Basic principles of fortune telling with Tarot cards

Fortune tellers... They were hated and feared, but many noble people constantly resorted to their services. Fortune telling with Tarot cards is a fun and interesting activity. There is an opinion among adherents of the occult that this craft can eventually open a person’s “third” eye. In other words, a fortune teller who makes readings on Tarot cards acquires clairvoyance skills. Let's try to study all the basic principles of working with these ancient symbols. Each such session is a sacrament. Therefore, the first thing to do is to tune in to fortune telling. Then we take the candles and light them, sit down at the table, and maintain complete silence. We shuffle the cards, turn them face down and lay them out. Before doing this, you need to clearly formulate the question to which you need to find an answer. The simplest method of fortune telling: we take out one card from the deck with our left hand. This will be the answer to your question. Look at the map carefully. What associations does the image on it evoke for you? Pay attention to the number on it and the zodiac sign assigned to it. So, for example, the dropped Moon card means that you are a vulnerable and touchy person. You are easy to deceive, since gullibility is another of your main qualities. Did this card fall face down? The inverted moon warns you of certain dangers. Tarot is a system of 78 symbols. Some people use only the 22 major arcana in fortune telling. But you will get a more complete and detailed answer using the entire deck. Next method: 3 card spread. That is, we shuffle the deck and lay it out in several rows from top to bottom, 3 symbols in each row. Here you need to pay attention to the influence of some signs on others. The Major Arcana speak about the inevitability of fate, about the archetypal force operating in a given situation. And the Minor Arcana will help to concretize the described situation. Correct interpretation is the most important principle of working with cards. This can only be learned through long-term training. Be diligent and attentive. And everything will work out for you.

Description of the Moon card

Where to start fortune telling? Of course, by studying the meaning of each card. This is a fundamental rule associated with ancient symbolism. At the moment we are interested in the Moon Tarot card. Against a dark background, two towers are visible on its sides, above which the full moon hangs. Its light spreads everywhere, making the outlines of objects and creatures more expressive in the darkness of the night. On the sides near the towers, opposite each other, sit a wolf and a dog and howl at the moon. At the bottom of the map there is a lake from which a huge octopus or crab crawls out. Water is present here for a reason. After all, it is known that the ebb and flow of the tides occur in accordance with the lunar cycle. You can also notice that raindrops are falling to the ground from the side of the lunar disk. They symbolize the descent of the Spirit into our world. A very unusual picture opened up before us when examining the Moon Tarot card. Its meaning is very interesting. It will be discussed in the next chapter.

Moon card meaning

Sad thoughts creep into your head when you look at the Moon card. Everything is in dark colors. Wild animals howling at the moon induce anxiety and fear. And a huge octopus emerging from the water is a symbol of hopelessness. Once caught in its strong net, it is unlikely that you will ever find a way to salvation. But not everything is as gloomy as it seems at first glance. This is how the Moon Tarot card is correctly interpreted: its meaning depends on the environment (neighboring cards) in the layout. Negativity comes from foxes (escapism from reality), owls (excessive suspiciousness), and so on. “Good” neighbors: Pisces (large savings), the moon (creating a family) and others. The appearance of this card should be taken as a warning. It is possible that a person underestimates his opponents, because in the light of the moon everything seems deceptive. Enemies can lie in wait everywhere. It is important not to lose composure, but also not to panic. The Moon card encourages you to curb your spirit and not give in to your desires and emotions.

Interpretation of the card in the upright position

When fortune telling, it is important not only to know the meaning of ancient symbols, to understand how they influence each other, but also to be able to interpret the pictures that appear upside down. After all, the meaning of the Tarot Moon card often depends on whether it appears upright or upside down. We can say that the interpretations of the two sides of the map are opposed to each other. In other words, if the upright position of the symbol means positive aspects, then the other side, as a rule, can only be interpreted in a negative way. This also applies to the Moon card. In the upright position, it means the following: unstable character, dangers, a long journey, the unknown, stagnation in relationships, vain illusions.

Interpretation of the card in an inverted position

What will the other side of the ancient symbol tell us? What is the meaning of the Moon Tarot card when reversed? Inverted, it is interpreted as follows: meanness and deception, dissatisfaction with life, meaningless actions, inability to distinguish good from bad, truth from lies.

Description of a person’s personality and health according to the Moon card

Often a fortune teller is asked not only to predict the future, but also to tell about the person for whom the fortune is being made. What can the Moon card tell about an individual? What is he like, his character traits, appearance, health? In tarot, the Moon means mystery, fear, and the unknown. So the person to whom it fell can be characterized as follows: timid, always doubting something, unsure of himself, pessimistic, inclined to see everything in black terms, and often melancholic by temperament. At the same time, such an individual may have some degree of clairvoyance. He has a rich imagination. He is impressionable, touchy, soft. As a rule, such people often devote themselves to the service of art, work in the field of television or the Internet. There are many romantics and dreamers among them. True, often their thoughts remain unrealized. They often need moral support from others. Also, it should be noted their suicidal tendencies. Such people cannot boast of good health. They are susceptible to various mental illnesses. Among them are many experienced alcoholics and drug addicts. Obsessive fears, phobias, anxiety, suspiciousness, nervous breakdowns and depression are their constant companions. But it’s not just mental illnesses that they develop. Women often experience menstrual irregularities. The most dangerous disease for them is cancer.

Tarot card Moon in love relationships

The inner world of such people is very rich. They are, as a rule, smart, well-read, educated. They are interested in classical music and world literature. The Moon card brings out their subtle romantic natures. They are capable of great feelings. But the alliance with them cannot be called strong. Relationships in couples often deteriorate due to partners' lack of confidence in each other, groundless jealousy, and excessive touchiness. Living with a person who gets the Moon card is not easy. But with the strong desire of both partners, all disagreements can be resolved.

What to do if the Moon card falls out?

And now some advice to people who have received this ancient mysterious sign. As mentioned earlier, in Tarot cards the Moon means a certain fear, uncertainty, instability of character. In an upright position, it can mean the presence of hidden troubles or enemies waiting in ambush. If you get this symbol, don't be afraid. Take this as a sign from fate telling you that you need to be more careful. Don't wishful thinking. Be more attentive to people. Some of them may flatter you to your face and plot behind your back. But there is no need to panic either. Behave calmly and confidently. Believe in yourself and your strengths, overcome your fears.

We looked at the basic rules for working with Tarot cards. Anyone can master this exciting activity. We also found out what the dropped Moon Tarot card means. The meaning of all symbols must be studied perfectly if you want to learn fortune telling.

This card is associated with synchronicity, intuition, dreams, secrets and symbolism (Carl Gustav Jung described this concept as “something vague, unknown or hidden from us”) The Moon shines with reflected light, and therefore represents the displacement of meaning when one object has the meaning of another . Eli-fas Levi wrote: “There are no secrets in which there would be no place for symbols,” and vice versa. The reality we know is created in the invisible world of dreams and visions - on the astral plane. Inside you live ideas and mental images that have not yet taken their final form. This card describes the fears and illusions that await you on the path of self-development, behind the last outposts of consciousness, in an unknown and mysterious land of shadows. Delusions, deep-seated fears, or even primal terror can appeal to your survival instinct, causing you to act irrationally or, conversely, according to established behavioral patterns. You feel confused and confused, scared and lost. There may be something elusive looming at the edge of consciousness that you just can’t grasp. You are drowning in emotions and floundering in a quagmire of misunderstandings, distorted perceptions, hidden motives, secrets and undercurrents - whether your own or others. On the other hand, you may feel that fate, a current, or an inexplicable desire is leading or attracting you to some as yet unclear goal. Perhaps you, like a crayfish, are clearing the waters of your unconscious, sifting and digesting the debris of the past, or bravely maneuvering between the wild, instinctive and domesticated parts of yourself, fiercely claiming dominance.

If you are at home in the dream reality or on the astral plane, in the realms of the subconscious or collective unconscious, you can be a medium, have out-of-body experiences, write poetry, fiction, engage in various types of therapy, and even guide others through the threshold of death. If you mistrust subjective experience and hidden meanings, you will become frightened of what happens to you and consider it a dangerous illusion. Contemporary tarot artist Brian Williams says that the French call the deceptive shadows of twilight the hour "entre chien et loup" - "between the dog and the wolf." This means that a seemingly dangerous creature can suddenly turn out to be friendly and kind, and vice versa.

Traditional meanings: secret enemies. Secrets, occult powers. Deception, illusions, delusions. Twilight, darkness. Unknown, unknown. Danger, warning. Instinctive fears. Horror. Conspiracies. Scandals, slander, gossip. False friends. Nostalgia. Dreams, dreams. Madness. Navigation.

Reversed Moon

With a reversed Moon, you may deny the very existence of the unseen world, tenaciously clinging to rationality, reason, literality and practicality, especially in the face of confusion and irrationality. You may block information coming through subtle channels or resist what your intuition is saying. You are trying to cage or scare away your inner wild beast, which only leads to physical exhaustion and weakness. You want to hide in the fortress of habitual conditioning and traditional way of life or go into silence, immobility and apathy. You feel unable to cope with the type of changes that the Moon represents (this includes atmospheric changes), especially if they cannot be explained using common sense. In some cases, this card indicates completely fantastic circumstances: the appearance of UFOs, encounters with aliens from outer space, parallel lives, memories of past reincarnations, as well as manifestations of extreme romanticism and other realities in which only very few believe. Archetypal images can rise from the collective unconscious, sometimes hidden under the guise of urban myths or ordinary everyday problems. A reversed Moon can increase irrational behavior, especially through fear of conspiracies and crimes, attacks by robbers, or spirit possession. Illusions and deceptions are possible, but not necessary.

On the other hand, this card can indicate a person's ability to calmly accept adversity, especially when it comes to personal or cultural transformation or spiritual development. If the Moon is inverted, deception and instability are not as strong and threatening as in the direct version. Something hidden may come to light. Secret addictions, traumas or mental disorders that require treatment may be revealed.

When projecting this card onto other people, they appear to you to be daydreamers, under the influence of illusions and self-deception, or overly emotional and unable to take responsibility for their actions. Or you may feel that they intend to harm you through a psychic or occult attack.

On the internal plane, this may be self-deception, or, conversely, an insight into the depths of the psyche, when, in the words of the 19th century mystic Anna Kingsford, “the soul gains inner enlightenment, and darkness runs through its chambers, illuminated by reflections of the sacred.” Acceptance will help you process and purify the experience.

In terms of health, this card is associated primarily with all forms of madness and mental illness. In addition, incontinence or, conversely, retention of fluids, sleep disturbances, neurasthenia, problems associated with the sense of smell, as well as with the limbic system and the survival instinct, may be observed. Also this is alcohol and drug abuse, coma and the dying process.

In the system of magic and shamanism, the Moon is a very important card associated with astral travel, descent into the lower world, dream interpretation, memories of past lives, finding lost things, attuning to lunar cycles and all forms of lunar magic, contact with animals, spirit possession, astral attacks, protection from them and the return of the soul.

Traditional Reversed Meanings: instability, variability, fluctuations, instability. Fluidity, dew, fog, rain. Silence. Impermanence. Irrational changes. Fantastic or visionary ideas. Minor deceptions, minor mistakes. To outsmart or deceive someone. Ambush, blackmail, scam. Overcoming temptation or temptation.
