Just as the Moon has many phases, so does its Tarot card complement. Also sometimes referred to as La Luna or the Illusion, this card has many layers that we cannot wait to dissect with you! So, won’t you join us for a little exploration into the meaning of the Moon Tarot card?
Looking at the imagery of the card, you can see the Sun-Moon gazing on the setting below. In the lower half of the card are two dogs, one of which looks curious and clean and the other that seems to be wilder and angrier. These dual aspects of the Sun-Moon in contrast with the two sets of canines gives us a hint about the internal conflicts present in the scene. Just below the dogs, a stray crayfish is shown trying to reach land. This struggle is representative of one’s own insecurities about the path ahead of them.
Upright Meaning
The meaning of the Moon Tarot when you pull it upright, can signify that you are in a period of vulnerability, uncertainty, and growth. In most cases, this unclear problem is happening in your private world and not publicly. Are you feeling uncertain about your current partner? Is work not satisfying you in the way it used to? If yes, then the Moon is asking you to dig deeper to find the root of the issue and bring it to light.
Reversed Meaning
The meaning of the Moon Tarot card when pulled in reverse can reveal that you are hiding something. Whether it be a physical or emotional thing, you are likely caught in a rut and are turning to old and unhelpful patterns. These feelings and behaviors will continue until you give the issue the care it needs. Tend to your emotional wounds and confront your bad habits.
