About the Moon: A New Perspective


Before I lost the card, I never really thought about the Moon. I just thought it was about intuition and dreams so I never really understood what the card was trying to say. When I lost the card, I reevaluated the meaning of the card.

The Moon rules Cancer and cancer is "symbolic of innermost fears forcing their way to the surface of consciousness. As the crab crawls up into consciousness, we often try to push him back down in the unconscious. However, if we do this, he nevertheless continues to exist there, still giving rise to vague fears and unacknowledged anxieties until such time as we allow the crab, that is our fears, to come right out to be faced" (Sharman-Burke, 116).
