Now that our fool has re-established her hopes and dreams, in order to get to them her fears must also be brought to the surface. 

The Moon represents just that; our fears, secrets and insecurities. In the illustrations there are usually two dogs or wolves and a lobster surrounding the moon, however in the picture on the right there are two women with wolf masks on. In the water is a shadow, symbolising what may be lurking underneath the surface. They all look to the moon with either fear, admiration or uncertainty, knowing that the moon has has the answers. 

The moon itself is one of the oldest mysteries, as much as it causes confusion it also illuminates the darkness…

When The Moon is pulled it is usually a sign for us to wait for the answers to be revealed. There is a piece to the puzzle that is missing and we must wait for clarity. The Moon also highlights our fears and insecurities, bringing them to the forefront to ultimately release them for a brand new cycle.

Personally I associate the moon with our menstrual cycle and believe that PMS does this in its own way, but that's another topic. 

The Moon tells us that no matter how uncertain things may be, rest assured that this time will pass and with it, new information to propel us forward.
