the moon card 🪞
“Illusion, deception, seeing things for what you want them to be rather than what they are, casting illusion, being under one, mental confusion, cloudy, foggy, hazy, fear. Only the naive are confused. Only those who don’t seek the truth are deceived. The world is only dangerous to those who wish to wear blindfolds because it feels soft. ” - Ava
‘Just because something isn't a lie does not mean that it isn't deceptive. A liar knows that he is a liar, but one who speaks mere portions of truth in order to deceive is a craftsman of destruction.’ - CJ This card can show running away with your imagination. Confusion is a mental disturbance characterised by bewilderment, the inability to think clearly or act decisively, and disorientation for time, place, and person. Women, especially young ones tend to be the most naive, the most easily confused, the most easy to influence. Men tend to be more discerning, in my opinion - especially grown ones. The story of this card is to observe more, watch more, listen more, open your eyes. Do not jump into this situation, as you are not in safe waters. Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men. How can you be confused if you know what you want? If you know what you seek, if you carry and hold precise values within yourself? Who can deceive you? Things not being what they seem, people not being who they portray themselves at, situations not being what you think they are.
*Mind you, confusion in humans can also be caused by dementia, delirium, alcohol, drugs, fever, brain trauma, infections, lack of sleep, blood sugar and temperature level abnormalities, low oxygen levels, and vitamin deficiencies.
‘Man is not what he thinks he is, he is what he hides.’ - André Malraux. “Oh, what a tangled web we weave...when first we practice to deceive.” Walter Scott. ‘People are secretive when they have secrets.’ Deb Caletti. ‘The most confused you will ever get is when you try to convince your heart and spirit of something your mind knows is a lie.’ -Shan Alder. ‘But why, why, why can't people just say what they mean?’ Graeme Simsion. Tricks and treachery are the practice of fools, that don't have brains enough to be honest. - Benjamin Franklin. The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history. - George Orwell. ‘Confidence, once lost or betrayed, can never be restored again to the same measure; and we learn too late in life that our acts of deception are irrevocable - they may be forgiven, but they cannot be forgotten by their victims. Sydney J. Harris
‘It is discouraging how many people are shocked by honesty and how few by deceit. Noel Coward’
