The Moon tarot card, numbered XVIII (18) in the Major Arcana, is a card of illusion, intuition, dreams, and the subconscious. It often features a moon shining above a path that winds between two towers, with a dog and a wolf howling below and a crayfish crawling from a pool—symbolizing the journey from instinct to awareness.
