The Moon
The message: "Let your charity be an inexhaustible storehouse, and your patience no less inexhaustible than your charity" invites us to cultivate virtues that never run out. Charity should be abundant, and patience, equally deep, must accompany us in all situations. The card reminds us that when we practice kindness and patience, these qualities renew and strengthen within us. In the general sense, this card warns about the presence of setbacks and deceptions that may arise along the way.
Hostility and distrust may be fueled by impulsive or misinterpreted actions, creating unnecessary enmities. The warning is clear: beware of treacherous flattery, which can deceive and divert the focus from your true intentions. While you may face apparent triumphs and failures, the key to overcoming this phase is to maintain serenity and wisdom in action. Success doesn’t always manifest as expected, and sometimes what seems like defeat may actually be a disguised opportunity.
Keep charity and patience as your guides, for they will protect you from negativity and allow you to move forward with balance and confidence.
Remember:
Trust your first reading—your initial impression of the cards matters, and what you expect to hear may not be what you truly need to know. Tarot is a powerful tool that should be used with moderation and respect, not as a means for constant reassurance.
Nothing is set in stone; the cards offer guidance, but your free will ultimately shapes your path. Even seemingly negative cards carry valuable lessons or warnings that can lead to personal growth. More than anything, Tarot is a journey of self-discovery—approach it with respect, discernment, and an open mind.
