The Moon card in tarot is often associated with intuition, subconscious thoughts, illusions, and the exploration of the unknown.
The Moon as Feelings (Upright)
-Intuition and subconscious awareness. Emotions may be influenced by subconscious thoughts and perceptions. This also also represents a strong sense of intuition and connection to a person's inner most feelings. The Moon really, and very strongly, represents our subconscious.
-Muddled feelings. These feelings may not be quite understood even to the person themselves, and they may struggle to articulate these feeling.
-Facing fears. The Moon can also tell about times when one must face their fears, or their darkest parts of them, like the hidden qualities of a person. Because of this aspect of facing fears, it can point to repeating patterns in someone's life.
-Uncertainty. The Moon can talk about feeling "in the dark" about something. In other words, having feelings of uncertainty that make someone feel unsure. This is a feeling of not feeling like we have all the information or the full picture, feeling uncertain, unsure and perhaps even afraid.
-Ambiguity and uncertainty. The Moon card can indicate feelings of ambiguity and uncertainty. Emotions might be fluid and changeable, making it challenging to grasp their true nature.
-Spiritual and mystical connections. Feelings may be influenced by a spiritual or mystical dimension. There could be a desire to explore deeper spiritual truths or connect with the mystical aspects of existence.
The Moon as Feelings (Reversed)
When the Moon card appears reversed in a tarot reading in the context of feelings, it suggests a shift in emotional energies and a potential release of confusion or illusions.
-Hidden motivations. Sometimes The Moon can talk about being able to sense dishonest motivations of others.
-Clarity and Illumination. Emotions may become clearer, and there could be a sense of illumination or understanding. The fog of confusion may be lifting, allowing for a more realistic view of one's feelings.
-Facing Reality. Reversed, the Moon card may indicate a willingness to face reality and confront emotional truths. This could involve overcoming fears or acknowledging and addressing hidden emotions.
