In cartomancy, also known as fortune telling by cards, the Moon tarot card is the eighteenth card in the Major Arcana. These 22 cards in a deck of 78 represent life lessons and karmic paths. The Major Arcana begins with the Madman’s journey and ends with divine knowledge of the world.
The Moon chart can be alarming to some because it lets us know that the dreams we wanted may be out of reach or that we need to be more pragmatic in order to succeed. The moon reminds us not to take what we see or read with a grain of salt, but to search for the truth and to be aware of our surroundings. Not everything is real and not everyone is honest.
Pulling the Moon chart in a reading can mean different things. It is vital to decipher its meaning in a way that suits you. Also remember that tarot predicts the energy at the time you seek answers so the outcome can change if the card influences you to take action.
Think of a clear question as you shuffle the cards to get the best results.
It’s World Tarot Day! Here’s a complete guide to tarot reading for beginners, according to experts
What does the Moon tarot card mean?
The Moon Tarot card represents mystery, intuition and imagination. On the one hand, these are all excellent qualities that can lead to an enchanting and exciting life, however, they can create ambiguity and confusion.
If you are unsure about something, you might want to pull the Moon chart as it indicates uncertainty about situations and may indicate that you lack the knowledge needed to make the right decisions. This card suggests that you will need to do a lot of investigative work on matters in order to be sure of the intentions of others and to understand your own motives regarding the matters you are asking tarot about.
Instead of finding a surface-level explanation, you’ll have to dig deep within yourself to understand why you’re subconsciously drawn to environments that don’t ignite your passions and bring you joy, but instead create confusion.

What does the upright Moon tarot card represent?
Pulling an upright Moon Tarot means that there may be secrets hiding beneath the surface that you don’t want to admit or want to be revealed. It would help if you didn’t let these problems, whatever they were, get the best of you and instead took this as a sign to face your problems head on. Try not to let the past haunt you and focus on how to resolve complicated matters and create a healthier dynamic in the present.
Keep in mind that the Moon map can also indicate lies hidden from our view, so it can serve as a warning. If something feels wrong, trust your intuition. Don’t let people tell you not to acknowledge your feelings because chances are you’re right.
This card can also represent miscommunication and misrepresentation of situations.
What does the reversed moon tarot card represent?
The reversed Moon card in the tarot means that it is time to wake up. Admit that you have been living in a fantasy and that you are finally seeing people, things and life as they truly are. It also means that it is time to admit that you have been living a life of self-deception and that other people have been hiding the truth from you.
However, now that you are aware, you realize that these things need to be addressed immediately. Whether you choose to confront others is up to you, but that doesn’t mean those people or endeavors should continue to be a part of your life.
If you’re feeling anxious, it means it’s time to switch off and focus on how you can begin the healing process. Moving away from negativity is important because these relationships are not sustainable. It is vital to let go of the past because you are holding yourself back and not living up to your full potential.
What does the Moon tarot card represent in astrology?
Astrologically, the Moon card represents the zodiac sign of Pisces and the element of water. Since Neptune is the modern ruler of Pisces, this translates to the elusive, artistic, visionary, dreamy, unconscious, ever-changing, creative, spiritual and instinctual meaning of the Moon. It also features hidden enemies, magic, the occult and enlightenment.
However, Neptune is also called “divine displeasure”. This means that things or people are never what they seem. This tarot card reminds us to look closer to find the truth.
Again, the Moon tarot card is number 18 in the Major Arcana or Trump cards. Numerologically, eighteen is defined as a primary number to use in manifestation work – as long as the intention is clear, which can be challenging due to the lack of clarity.
The combination of 1 and 8 (two numbers out of eighteen) brings us to the number nine, which defines a new horizon or path approaching.
What does it mean when you draw the Moon tarot card?
In general, the Moon focuses on intuition. What you do with the knowledge you get from tarot is up to you. It also shows things buried beneath the surface that are illuminated by the Moon’s glow.
Here’s what the Moon Tarot can mean for certain areas in your life:
Career: You are considering a career change because you are no longer aligned with your original professional aspirations. Embrace growth and process as it is part of the evolution of your business.
Finances: Don’t be too trusting when it comes to your money. Make sure the investments are legitimate and that you are not being scammed. Proceed with caution and do not fall victim to scammers trying to steal your money.
Love: Hidden emotions come to light. This alludes to the problems that arise. Things can be resolved and relationships can be changed if both parties are willing to be honest and do whatever it takes to repair the relationship.
Friendship: An enemy might secretly hate because he is jealous. Be open with your feelings to overcome and develop a friendship. You don’t have to give up on them, but you do have to be honest with each other.
Family: Pulling the Moon card allows you to resolve drama and trauma in your family. Talk about your innermost feelings with your offspring and listen to their perspective. Find a middle ground to solve the problem.
Health: You may be experiencing a lot of stress in your life, leading to extreme anxiety. Take a step back and relax. Focus on taking care of yourself and finding a quiet center to decompress.
