↑ Upright Meaning

The Moon illuminates the unconscious — the realm of dreams, fears, illusions, and the shadowy things that lurk beneath conscious awareness. Things are not as they appear. Your intuition and your fears are both speaking loudly — learning to tell them apart is the work.

↓ Reversed Meaning

Emerging from confusion, releasing fears, clarity returning. The fog is lifting. What was hidden or distorted is being seen more clearly now.
