Love & Relationships <3
What is going on under the surface? Your instincts are trying to tell you something. Perhaps it is a warning of deception and you need to get to the bottom of why it feels like your subconscious has an itch that it needs to scratch.
However, sometimes when we don’t address our fears in a relationship, they become specters that haunt us and can guide the relationship in a negative direction. These can be issues that would simply vanish if we were to shine a light on them.
Be strategic about how you approach this issue. If there is deception happening, you want to avoid doing something that may alert your partner before coming to a certain conclusion. And if your partner is not being untrue, it may damage your relationship if you approach this without tact. Asking a friend or loved one for perspective may be advisable.

Love / Relationships <3
Reversed The Moon can still represent deceit, confusion, or unaddressed worries in your relationship. If allowed to go unchecked these fears can fester and cause even more issues.
While confronting these problems may be something that you need to learn to do in order to grow as a person or as a couple, it does beg the question. What kind of a relationship are you in if you do not feel safe discussing your feelings with this person? If you don’t have a ready answer for that, reflect on it like The Moon upon the water in the image.
