The Moon.
The Ruler of Flux and Reflux: the Child of the Sons of the Mighty. Queen of Pisces.
The Moon. Pisces. Koph. This is the most sinister card. Through sorcery and witchcraft it is possible to get an understanding of the universe, but the path is dangerous. On each side of the picture are dark fortresses. The Anubis the gods of death are ready to seize the soul of the aspirant and jackals wait to devour those who have fallen by the way.
The Sun is held by the Scarabeus Sacer under the water.
The design on the card is planned on the movement of the tide whose ebb and flow is governed by the Moon.
This card represents the state of impure horror, hidden darkness which must be passed through before light can be reborn. The Moon is, therefore, the most universal of the planets, partaking at once of the highest and the lowest. At the bottom of the card moves the Sacred Beetle, bearing the Sun through the darkness of night. Above is the evil landscape of the Moon. A stream, or path of Serum, tinged with blood, flows between two barren mountains. On the hills are dark sinister towers. On the threshold stands the jackal-headed god, Anubis, in double form; at his feet are the jackals waiting to devour those who have fallen by the way.
Illusion. Deception. Bewilderment. Hysteria. Madness. Dreaminess. Falsehood. Voluntary change. The brink of an important change. This card is very sensitive to dignity.
