18 - The Moon
The Fool journeys to The Moon, and once again, The Fool finds himself stuck on his journey. The Moon blinds him to facts; he is not able to trust his inner voice and is confused by what his mind shows him. He is unsure of others and does not trust his own intuition as the eclipsed moon creates shadows, blocking out sunlight. Nothing seems what it is at face value, and as The Fool digs for answers, he finds no clarity. Led by deep-seated fears, he may find himself in a cycle that could lead him astray if he follows his ideas and thoughts.
Confusion reigns, and we cannot see what is real through the fog within our minds.
The Moon tickles our insecurities, tugs at our deep-seated fears, and brings us inaccuracies in how we perceive the world about us. We can lose sight of reality and feel dazed and confused within our own thoughts.
We have entered a phase of uncertainty. It may feel like it will last forever and seem never-ending but remember that it is only a phase. We find ourselves in the unknown, both emotionally and mentally, with our minds taking us to places we fear. We may feel consumed by irrational thoughts that contain no truths or half-truths because nothing is visible in daylight right now.
Old anxieties rise up and blind us, clouding reality, but all that is happening is an overstimulated mind, leading to confusion, fantasy, and delusions. Avoid making decisions based on how you feel; doing so would result in a decision based on whisps of emotions and thoughts.
Right now is not the best time to follow our intuition, as it could well be our fears masquerading.

My book arrived this week. Yes!
The Universal Waite Tarot deck shows Pamela Coleman Smith’s artwork recoloured by Mary Hanson Roberts. The line-art is clean with non-blurry lines and beautifully coloured, of course.
I am house-sitting for my son for two weeks so decided to also buy the ebook from Amazon Kindle. I’ll leave the hardcopy at home so it doesn’t weigh-down my suitcase. It’s a 427 page book, so very thick!
I’ve only read the introduction and The Fool so far. What I like so far, is the way the Fool’s meaning is described in detail, referring to colour, symbols, and zodiac and astrological associations. All important details for me to remember and learn. There is a lot to learn, to enjoy and to gradually remember. I say gradually, as it’s not about memorising but savouring the details. This is not a book with keywords, although there is a “In a nutshell” summation at the end of each long description for the card. The long description (often three pages in length) is followed by two shorter ones (less than one page long) for upright and reversed meanings. In these shorter sections, keywords are in bold-type. It’s far easier to remember them when they’re given in a story-like context rather than as a separate list to memorise.
I can see myself using this book as my primary resource for years!
This began as sharing a photo and ended up as a short review for those who have not yet bought Pam’s book.
My advice is to not hesitate.
