The Moon
Uncertainty and deep feelings. Trust your intuition while things are unclear.
uncertainty · dreams · feelings beneath the surface
The Moon shines over a winding path between two towers, just before dawn. A dog and a wolf call out to it, and a small creature climbs from the water. The scene is beautiful, but a little mysterious.
This card is about uncertainty, dreams and feelings beneath the surface. It appears when things are unclear: you don't have all the information, or your emotions are making it hard to see straight. It can also point to fears that feel bigger in the dark.
The Moon asks you to be patient and to trust your intuition. Pay attention to dreams and feelings, but check them against reality. Soon the sun will rise, and things will look clearer.
The light
The Moon awakens your intuition and imagination. Even when the path is unclear, your inner sense can guide you.
The lesson
Not everything is as it seems right now. Don't let fears or assumptions fill the gaps. Wait for more light before you decide.
The Moon in your life
