I am the Moon
Hope, expectation, Bright promises.
The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - when prominent you know
that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns
relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.
The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and
poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both
dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there
might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be
remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful
magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time
of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems,
you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or
alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This
time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers,
visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.

It mostly sounds pretty fun although I could probably do without any
more insanity in my life and hidden enemies are not my cuppa.
