Card 18

The Moon

Brief Description

The Moonlight card represents the realm of mystery, intuition, and the unknown that emerges when logic gives way to deeper wisdom. It signifies a time when familiar things become illusory and transformed under the moon's silver light, urging us to pay attention to dreams, embrace the darkness of night, and trust our intuitive guidance over rational thinking.

The Forest Under Moonlight

Who dares to walk into the forest during a full moon? Who will follow the illuminated path to the pond? In moonlight, the forest looks different. What seems so familiar during the day becomes illusory in the full moon. Night sounds inspire terror and evoke inexplicable desires. Breaking through the tree branches, moonbeams flood the forest clearing with silver light.

The Madness of Hares

In moonlight, hares go mad. In lunatic ecstasy, they dance and jump, then suddenly freeze as if enchanted. Most often they come to their senses at dawn. They say that those who sleep in the moonlight either go mad or become poets. The poet Byron wrote: 'You know the dangerous silence in which the soul dissolves, as if nature, freezing in expectation, is serenely beautiful.' Perhaps our life is just a dream and we are as crazy as these hares.

Night Magic and Intuition

Even a hardened pragmatist cannot deny the magic of night. When your spread is illuminated by Moonlight, take this as a sign that for some time your logic must yield to your intuition. Pay attention to dreams, which may contain signs. Immerse yourself in the darkness of night with the sole intention of knowing the mystery.

Brief Meaning

Secrecy and mystery. The world of dreams. Intuition. Something is hidden from view.
