The Moon is often seen as a card of illusions, deception, fantasies and dreams where nothing is real. The associations are largely negative, implying fear, nightmares, eerieness, and journeys into the unknown: the walk into the dark forest, or towards the spooky house at the end of the street. The light from the Moon creates more shadows than it illuminates.
However many people find the actual moon inspiring, and the face on the moon sometimes brings to mind the friendly Man in the Moon from Mother Goose. Some people think or work better at night, during the quieter, cooler hours. Cards that reinforce this might be 4 of Swords and 4 of Cups, that encourage quiet reflection, and the Star, being serene, untroubled, appreciating something beautiful.
But have you ever drawn the Moon in a single-card reading and had it stand for positive feelings, rather than foreboding illusions?
