The Moon - Arcana Major XVIII
 The Moon - Arcana Major XVIII
This 18th Tarot de Marseilles arcana is a very special card.
Indeed, it contains several different but important elements. It seems that the landscape, a rainy country with a water expanse, has been ravaged by a war as the soil is bloodied.
The map is full of characters:
- A crab ; which is the symbol of our unconscious
- Two guard dogs ; that suggest wolves howling at the moon
- Two protective towers
- The moon ; which shines through the sun's rays and not by itself
Have you noticed as, despite everything, the landscape is abandoned?
The moon is a star that is not luminous. These are the sun's rays that give its brilliance to the moon and allow it to sparingly light our nights.
Thus, at dusk and thanks to the moon, shadows - often distorted - may form around objects and beings.
The Moon, represented by the card, is the symbol of these distorted shadows. And when this card comes out of a tarot cards reading, it distorts the meaning of the other cards.
The Moon symbolizes the hidden side of everything, it recalls the consulting to be on the look out of the shadows a good situation can hide.
Moreover, the Moon is the Monday star... and it is recommended to never have a tarot cards reading on Monday as the cards lose credibility.
The Moon is not only a negative element of the Tarot de Marseilles: it may also represent the consulting's home.
Basic Meaning:
In the right position: lies, nightmares, hidden threats, imagination of the consulting, hypocrisy...
In the reversed position: disorder, depression, jealousy, hatred...
Examples:
- The Moon on the right of the Chariot: Avoid the trip you planned
- The Moon placed on the right of the Page of Swords warns you about an enemy
- The Moon placed next to the Five of Cups represents a dangerous relationship...
Only the Sun and the Star have the needed strength to cancel the negative aspects of the Moon.
