3317) "The MOON", Tarot Cards, Niue Island: The Eighteenthth $2 (Two Dollars) Coin Card in the Major Arcana released by the New Zealand Mint on behalf of Niue Island: Year of Coin issue: 2024:
The Moon card shows a full moon in the night’s sky, positioned between two large towers. The Moon is a symbol of intuition, dreams, and the unconscious. Its light is dim compared to the sun, and only slightly illuminates the path to higher consciousness winding between the two towers.
In the foreground is a small pool, representing the watery, subconscious mind. A small crayfish crawls out of the pool, symbolizing the early stages of consciousness unfolding. A dog and a wolf stand in the grassy field, howling at the moon, representing both the tamed and the wild aspects of our minds.
The Moon represents the Querent's fears and illusions and often comes out when you are projecting fear into the querent's present and future, based on his/her past experiences.
He/she may have a painful memory that caused emotional distress, and rather than dealing with the emotions he/she pushed them down deep into his/her subconscious.
Now, these emotions are making a reappearance, and he/she may find himself/herself under their influence on a conscious or subconscious level.
For example, if he/she had a car accident when he/she were young but didn’t deal with the emotions, he/she may get sad or anxious every time he/she gets into the backseat of a car.
To remedy this, connect with the querent's subconscious mind and release any fears or anxieties holding him/her back. Hypnosis, therapy and shamanic healing can support this process.
The Moon can indicate a time of uncertainty and illusion, when nothing is what it seems.
Be careful of making fast decisions when The Moon appears because he/she may later realise he/she only had half the information he/she needed.
He/she needs to listen to and trust his/her intuition so one can see beyond what is in front of him/her.
Feel into situations rather than thinking what they mean. Let go of his/her conscious mental blocks or negative self-talk and allow his/her intuition to guide him/her.
His/her dreams, intuitions and inner guidance lead him/her forward toward higher levels of understanding if he/she listens and uses his/her judgement to help interpret the messages of the subconscious.
When The Moon card appears in one's Tarot reading, the querent needs to pay close attention to the lunar cycles and attune to its divine power using ritual, visualization or Tarot readings. Connect with the divine feminine and uncover deep intuitive insights and visions of what lies beyond everyday life.
On the New Moon, set one's intentions and plant the seeds of opportunity so they can grow.
And on the Full Moon, honour one's achievements and look at what one needs to release so that new aspects of himself/herself can shine.
Symbolising intuition and the subconscious, this card encourages us to delve deep into our minds and uncover the truth. When we face these deep memories and release negative energy, The Moon’s light brings clarity and understanding.
Tarot decks first appeared in Italy in the 1430s, and unlike regular card decks that number 52 cards consisting of four suits; Spades, Clubs, Diamonds, and Hearts; Tarot card decks have a five suit, - Swords (representing the Air Element), "Wands" (representing the Fire element), "Cups" (representing the Water Element), "Pentacles" (Representing the Coins or the material/ground element).
There is also the "Major Arcana" (Major Secrets), of 21 specially illustrated cards called “Triumphs” and an odd card called “The Fool.” (The Major Arcana represents the Fool's journey in Life).
"The MOON" is the Eighteenth card in the Major Arcana (and the Nineteenth Card in a Tarot Deck).
