Summary of the Moon Tarot Card Meaning
Following the light of their guiding Star, the Fool continues forward. But before them there is no path, no signals, no markers, only endless night. Where the Fool needs to go is where nobody has ever gone before, and they have only instinct as their guide. In this dark thicket, the Fool senses movement, but is unable to make out the shadowy figures. As the Fool approaches a clearing, they see a lake. Two moons shine, one above the lake and one within it. In their current state of bewilderment, the Fool is unable to distinguish between the reflection and the sky.
Light: Instinct, fantasy, mystery, unknown
Shadow: Illusion, confusion, delusion
