The Moon- Unhappy tarot card- Tarot Project Series

8:04 AM 0 Comments
Dear All,
I am finally able to present you the 18th trump tarot "Unhappy" card, the Moon. Ok, few personal notes on this card. It is a bad card, no doubt, however it is "less" bad than the "tower" or the "hanged man" cards which I find the absolute worst. It is a card where we loose our sense of reason for whatever motive and we most likely incur loss and the disappointment that comes with it. For example I met in my life, some men that took advantage of my good nature, and because they were good looking I fell pray to their charm and lost money/ property.  It happened 3 different times, in different locations with 3 different people of different nationalities.
The Moon can do that, but as I am not into money or property the loss was not something that crashed me.

The Moon

Overview:

The Moon is a card of fear and illusion, delusion or deception. With this card you can feel lost, confused or afraid or you can feel drawn to an undefined purpose. The Moon card is a signal to call our attention that something that can seem harmless to you can be dangerous!
The tarot Moon trump card is associated with Pisces astrological sign and the horoscope’s 12th house of spirituality and psychic awareness.

Keywords: deception, illusion, delusion, dreams, false friends, dishonesty, lies, trickery, bad dreams, drug and alcohol abuse, and the dying process.
In Magic, it means underworld travel, dream interpretation, moon magic, psychic attacks and defense.

It is important to pay attention to the real phase of the moon at the time of the reading occurs, as events will follow by the next Full moon.

Challenges:

The negative aspect of this card can be interpreted as irrational behaviour, madness, “lunacy”. Also, hidden things can come to light; addictions or trauma can be revealed, disturbing dreams and difficulty accepting emotions. It is most likely that you are a victim of false information. In a negative cards spread you should be aware of THEFT, or excessive use of drugs or alcohol. It is not advisable to act on impulse, because it is very likely that deception will follow.
Old tarot books emphasize the negative aspects of the Moon, especially deception, changeability, instability, bad luck, unseen dangers. Historically people believed that

“lunacy” and mental disorders are caused by the “moonlight”.
Healthwise, indicates all sorts of mental health issues.

Solution:

As a solution the Moon gives you power to overcome weakness or temptation.
When you receive the Moon card in a solutions position it is a good time to use your creative talents in writing (poetry or fiction), art, acting or psychology. It is also a possible indication of travel over water. You should listen to your intuition, dreams, and feelings.

As a person the Moon can be mostly women, travellers, artists, psychics, writers, actors, psychologists or psychotherapists. But the Moon can also represent: liars, impostors, con men, crooks, secret enemies or emotionally troubled or mentally ill people.





Also the Moon tarot card in the Golden Botticelli Tarot, please see below:

Few words about the Golden Botticelli Tarot- I purchased this deck a few years back, during a trip to London. It came as a disappointment to me that this deck did not have any hidden messages or story line to tell. It was just as you can see biblical like pictures in golden ink. I recently found this deck in a store downtown, and I remembered that I own this deck. So, here it is their straight Moon interpretation: No towers to choose from good or evil, No domesticated dog and wolf guarding the path between the towers of evil and good(- indicating to pay attention to possible danger! ) just an angel overlooking a pond with crab/ lobster or other crustacean, at night (the moon is present).
You can tell me what you think of this card in private or in comments.

Tower Unhappy Tarot Card- Major Arcana Series

1:52 PM 0 Comments
Hi everyone,

today I will present another unhappy tarot card, the Tower. The good news is that it is the last unhappy card before the last unhappy card which is the Moon. The Tower is my shadow card because it is card number 16 and my birth card is 7 (Computation: birthday day (X) + birthday month(Y) + birthday year(Z)and then you add all numbers together (x+y+z = rrrr, r+r+r+r until you reach a maximum number of 22). For example if your birthday is June 20 1985 your birh card number is 06+20+1985= 2011, then you add 2+0+1+1=4 so, the Emperor is the birth card, and 13 ( 1+3= 4) is the Shadow card.
If there is more interest I will post more of birth cards on a separate post.
So, the Tower card is my shadow card, meaning I had time to experience on my own skin what this card is all about. I think one of the worst things about this card is that predicts events that cannot be prevented or avoided. For me it occurs every 7- 8 years, so it goes in cycles.

Please find below interpretations of Tower card as understood from a collection of views on this card by famous tarotists:


The Tower

Overview:

The Tower is a card of shock without warning and extreme situations. It is one of the “unhappy cards” where sudden change is NOT desired nor expected. Think of “violent” change and sometimes arguments, even crisis; feelings/ emotions that have been repressed are now released with power. You may encounter very difficult/ traumatic situations such as: accidents, bankruptcy, losing your job, Earthquakes, imprisonment or involuntary detention, hospitalization. Romantically, the Tower card represents a “red hot affair”, falling in love passionately or a divorce. Healthwise the Tower indicates surgery/ operations, even chemotherapy and at magical level signifies “sex magic” or “psychic surgery” (surgery with bare hands and instant healing).

Conflicts:

Some of the challenges you may face with this card are: misery, poverty, calamity, some sort of misfortune, loss. Also, different aspects of your life may be falling apart while you may be acting as if there are no problems. So it is hard for you to accept that things are not right. In other words, the Tower in conflict position indicates some kind of shock or disruption.

Advice:

The Tower reversed foretells a lesser negative impact on the Querent, than in its upright position. In its positive aspect this card announces a good time to eliminate false beliefs, moving away/ changing or selling house, changing jobs or pursuing a new career. As a solution, the Tower signals that the trauma is over, that the worst has passed, and it indicates that you have learned your lesson.
