The Moon represents darkness, but not in a negative sense.  It represents the realms of the unconscious, and of the illusions that might exist in one’s conscious perception of things.  Now is the time to pay attention to your intuition and dreams.  What do your deepest feelings tell you about your current situation?  What are you most afraid of right now?  Sometimes the most profound growth is found in facing our deepest fears.  You may be hiding something from others or yourself.  Someone may also be hiding something from you, contributing to confusion and fear you’re feeling.  The Moon advises us to go within to seek better understanding before taking action.  It may be wise to keep some things hidden for now.  This card also represents natural cycles, such as the cycles of the moon, menstruation, or the changing of the seasons.  Today, rather than reacting to the events that occur, take time to reflect.  If someone or something upsets you, consider why you feel so strongly about the matter.  Does it remind you of something in your past?  Though it may be scary or painful to look so closely at your hidden motivation, doing so will give you valuable knowledge about yourself.

Nurture yourself and your loved ones today through practical, loving action.  Think of your chores as sacred.  Honor your environment by cleaning it.  Bless your body by eating some nutritious and delicious food and enjoying some gorgeous exercise.  Bestow a little extra care upon your family, housemates, or pets.  The care you invest today will only serve to multiply your abundance.  A person you know or will encounter … or some aspect of yourself that is present, or to be called upon now … is exerting influence in your life now.  This person is very practical and organized, successful in business and in creating a secure, comfortable home for loved ones.  Making sensible decisions paves the way to steady, sustainable progress … therefore, remain well grounded and emotionally balanced as you go about your day.  You will experience feelings of care and the desire to protect others, much like a nurturing mother might feel while caring for her family and friends.  Your concern for the environment inspires you to be more efficient in the usage of your resources.  Do spend time outside in a more natural setting and enjoy the peace.
