As we come to the end of the tarot cards we can see how the major arcana unfolds. It has led us on a journey through birth, death, inspiration and waiting. There are many lessons to be learned from the tarot, and it is important to understand the complete meaning behind the card in order to fully grasp the lessons the tarot deck has to offer.
The moon card is pictured with a large moon in the center the addition of a crescent moon inside the full moon is also present. A dog and a wolf howl are positioned at the bottom of the card, and they look up in a howl. This card is symbolic of fear, illusion, fantasy, deception and confusion.
The moon card symbolizes being afraid; it represents nameless fears and phobias, and it suggests being afraid of the dark and what may lie in it. This card also implies that there is a lack of strength and courage, and the bearer of this card may be allowing insignificant worries to overcome him. This card suggests that you release inner secrets and fears like the heartfelt howl of the wolf.
Illusions are another implication of the moon. Deception is apparent when the moon card appears in your reading. You may be deceiving yourself, and you may believe in things that are unrealistic. You may have your fantasies confused with reality, and you may be mistaking truth for fiction. The illusions that you see in the shadow of the moon show there true selves in the sunlight.
Imagination is conjured up by the moon card, and it implies that dreams may currently be very realistic and vivid. You may be fantasizing a lot about someone or something. Peculiar ideas may be running through your mind as of light, and this may be bringing you inspiration and creativity. These unusual and outlandish thoughts are derivative of the unconscious, and may be seen as visions.
The moon card also suggest confusion, and you may feel as if someone has turned the lights off on you. You may feel that you are losing yourself, and you may have trouble seeing things clearly. It is as if you are in a fog, and you are unsure of which way you have come from and which way you are going. This can be distracting, and leave you with a trouble mind, but remember night only lasts so long.
The moon is a card of darkness of thought, this can be deceptive, confusing or frightening, but it can also be used as creative inspiration.
