The Moon
The Moon warns of hidden dangers, negative emotions, and manipulations that make outcomes unpredictable and difficult to control. It emphasizes insufficient information and outside influences, advising caution and emotional restraint rather than risk-taking. The card's warning is to be careful with every step, prioritizing safety even when the outlook seems promising. Reversed, the card can signal secrets being revealed and illusions lifted, or it can indicate deep fears, apathy, or stagnation that must be addressed.

Visual Description
A large crescent moon with a human face hangs in the night sky beneath a banner showing the Roman numeral XVIII.
