Upright Interpretation: 

The Moon represents the inner world; the deepest aspects of the soul. When the Moon appears it’s a message to tune into yourself and bring outstanding issues to the light. Not everything is meant to be hidden away and brought out in a clandestine manner, some things need to be faced and release. The Moon also reminds us of the ever-lasting cycles of life and the importance they have on the flow of Universal Source energy. Be mindful of the tides you create. This card is also representative of the Divine Feminine. 


Important Note:

This card can be indicative of deception. You or someone close to your may be concealing secrets or parts of the self.


Reversed Interpretation: 

The Moon in reverse indicates clarity. You may be releasing fears or confronting stale beliefs, trying to reshape your inner-world. Your higher self is pointing your attention to your deepest inner workings and prompting you to take action to create peace in yourself. This card in reverse may be indicative of overpowering masculine energy or toxic feminine energy.  



Wicked Perspective:

This card appears to encourage you to embrace all of the inner parts of yourself and explore your deeper nature. The light of the Moon brings with it the protection we may need to feel safe rendezvoused with parts of yourself you may rather ignore. This card challenges one to journey within, engage in shadow work, and dare to know yourself on the deepest possible level. Trust in yourself and welcome in the divine feminine and its pure, dark energy.
