The Lesson of the Tarot Moon is Clarity

The Fool is learning to deal with hidden forces and a lack of clarity. Moodiness, illusions, basic instincts, and repressed emotions can make it difficult to see things clearly. Imagination gets carried away and takes on a fearful lead. Don't let your mind run away with you.

Personality (Strengths & Weaknesses)

Phlegmatic Type 1 is associated with the Blue HSP Personality (Water).

Phlegmatic Type 2 is associated with the Green HSP Personality (Water).

Note: Of the seven personalities, those with a phlegmatic constitution are inclined to be highly sensitive, so if your aura is primarily blue or green, you will be way more sensitive than most Highly Sensitive People and, maybe, psychic.​ 

The Tarot Moon Traditional Meanings

You are likely uncertain what to think in your situation, much less what action to take. It may seem that just when you wrap your rationality around your circumstance, your imagination steps in and strips you of your senses, which may be especially true at night while gazing at the moon outside your window. That's when you may seem to arrive at the best of solutions and decisions. However, as the sun rises, those solutions and decisions may seem foolish, and you are left feeling more confused than ever.

You may be a victim of false information. Something is surely amiss, as struggling with uncertainty isn't usually one of your traits. Neither is being uncertain and perplexed to no end.

A mother figure may, perhaps, shed light on the matter. However, one thing is sure at this time. Don't allow anyone to force a decision upon you while clarity continues to evade you. It may also benefit you to maintain strict confidence over your recent confusion and concerns, at least over the next 28 days.

The Tarot Moon Biblical Meanings

The Tarot Moon represents Jesus at Gethsemane and humanity's struggle with the power of faith. It also represents the struggle over how we react to our fears. We often want to analyze and understand "Why?", "How?", and "What?". Sometimes, it's better to go with God's power and mystery. Stop fearing. Stop reacting. Go with the flow. Have faith in the confusion.

Tarot Meditation

What are your dreams or emotions telling you? Based on experience, can you trust your feelings at this time? If so, proceed cautiously. If not, wait until the sun rises to decide, or give things 28 days to see how they play out.

Food Remedies

Phlegmatics do well on both vegetarian and traditional diets. Milk, dairy products (including cheeses), wheat (and other foods containing gluten), refined sugar, starches, and flours, very cold and icy foods and drinks, and moist, creamy, rich foods will bother the Phlegmatic temperament.
