Moon as How Someone Sees You (Upright & Reversed) Tarot Card Meaning 

The Moon is the card of illusion, fear, anxiety, deception, intuition, and the subconscious. The card depicts a full moon in the night sky, positioned between two large towers. The moon is a symbol of intuition, dreams, and the unconscious. Compared to its counterpart the sun, the moon’s light is dim and only slightly illuminates the night. 

The Moon reminds us that every light has a shadow. Not everything in life is clear cut. Relationships will always have ambiguity to some extent. The Moon reminds us to tune into and listen to our intuition. Before our mind knows, we know. Especially when it comes to relationships, listen to your inner voice.  

Upright Moon as How Someone Sees You

If you are asking about how someone sees you, and you draw the Moon, that means this person sees you as someone that misunderstands you. Emotions in the relationship are ambiguous. Sometimes your connection is perfect, other times it is not. How they see you is cloudy. The relationship needs light to shine in for you both to understand each other.

The Moon means that they see you as something illusory or unclear. Their subconscious mind that directs perception may lack clarity because of past relationships. They may have trust or commitment issues. Things are unclear as to whether you are compatible. They do not necessarily see you as a positive or negative force in their life, but they desire to know which one you are.

For singles and those embarking on new relationships, the Moon is a sign that they see you as a singular ray of light. They cannot understand or see all parts of you. It is a complicated situation. They cannot decipher if they want to start a relationship with you or pass. They are indecisive on how they see you. There is a chance for a relationship, but there is also a chance of being ghosted.

For existing relationships, the Moon means that they see you as an up and down roller coaster. The relationship has been miserable at times and glorious at others. Negative and positive experiences with you shape how they see you. Sometimes the negatives outweigh the positives and vice versa. The upright moon is a sign that the fog of the relationship and how you see each other needs to be cleared.

If you are asking about an ex’s intentions, the Moon shows that they see you as someone in a neutral state. They cannot decide if the break up hurt them or if they want to get back together. Reconciliation is definitely possible when you draw the upright Moon. You must both consider how the relationship went and whether or not it is worth it to give it another chance.

In the context of whether or not a relationship is headed for commitment, engagement, or marriage, the Moon means that they see you as both a longterm and shortterm partner. It is unclear to them if your love will last forever. However, they are having a lot of fun with you unmarried. They want to continue, but marriage is very unclear to them at this point in time.

Reversed Moon as How Someone Sees You

If you are asking about how someone sees you, and you draw the Moon reversed, that means this person sees you as another worry in their life. They are lost. They do not know what they want in all parts of their life. This makes them see you as another thing to decide on when they can’t even make significant decisions about things like their career. This makes them have an overall negative perception of you.

The Moon reversed means that they see you as someone untruthful. You both hide feelings from each other. There can be an element of deception as well. Are one of you trying to gain something unwillingly from the relationship that the other person is against. They see you as someone who is not kind enough towards their feelings. This is damaging to the relationship.

For singles and those embarking on new relationships, the Moon reversed is a sign that they see you as someone that confuses them. They struggle to read your intimate intent. They do not know if they see you as interested or not. This makes starting a relationship tricky. One of you has to make an honest and direct move to escape from this early struggle.

For existing relationships, the Moon reversed means that they see you as someone they have gotten this far with through dishonesty. Maybe they have put on a facade so that you would like them or maybe they are carrying lies throughout the relationship. They see you as someone that would end the relationship if you knew their true self. Assure them that you would love them for whatever they are, and that they do not need to lie to make you like them.

If you are asking about an ex’s intentions, the Moon reversed shows that they see you as someone that deceived them. They feel hurt by the breakup. Because of how they feel, they will resist reuniting with you until you apologize or help make them feel better. This may have been your fault, or something that they personally struggle with. Overall, reconciliation is not currently possible.

In the context of whether or not a relationship is headed for commitment, engagement, or marriage, the Moon reversed means that they see you as someone they cannot fully open up to. Marriage requires complete and natural honesty to work. They must see you as someone they can share all of their insecurities with in order to consider marriage. Make it known to them that they can see you this way and you will not judge if you plan on commitment with this person.

Conclusion

For relationships and feelings, the Moon reveals the darker side of lust and desire. In the shadows of a relationship, deception and misunderstandings lie. What is hiding underneath the surface? The Moon serves as a warning sign, urging us to identify and bring the issues out of the dark and into broad daylight. What hides in your own unconscious, affecting your ability to accept love? The Moon is also a sign to listen to your intuition. When your intuition tells you that something is not quite right, listen to it! Tune into your deepest self.
