The '''Moons''' are the two natural satellites of the [[Glade of Dreams]] – the world in which the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]] takes place. Both of the Moons are white, and one of them is larger than the other. Like the [[Suns]], the number of Moons visible fluctuates between one and two, even within the same game.

The Moons are first seen in [[Mr Dark's Dare]] from the Sega Saturn version of [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]; the second Moon is exclusive to the European version, as only the larger of the two Moons appears in the American and Japanese versions of the game. In the European version, when [[Rayman]] confronts [[Mr Dark]] in [[Candy Château]], the smaller of the two Moons can be glimpsed through [[Candy Château|the Château]]'s skylight. When [[Rayman]] finally defeats [[Mr Dark]], the five stained-glass windows of [[Candy Château|the Château]] shatter, revealing the larger Moon. At an earlier point in the game, [[Rayman]] battles [[Space Mama]] on a theatre stage made to resemble the surface of the Moon.

The Moons are visible more frequently in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', where they are often seen in levels which have night-time sections, such as [[the Fairy Glade]], [[the Precipice]], [[the Echoing Caves]] and the [[Tomb of the Ancients]]. One of the Moons can be seen looming large in the sky above [[Polokus]]'s domain, and one can even be seen above [[the Hall of Doors]] in the PlayStation version of the game. However, the number of Moons visible varies between one and two.

The Moons are a common sight in ''[[Rayman 3]]'', where they appear in [[the Fairy Council]], [[the Bog of Murk]] and [[the Summit Beyond the Clouds]]. Like the [[Suns]], neither of the Moons are ever seen alone in this game.

In ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', the Moons play an important part in the story: it is revealed that [[Rayman]] was woven from rays of moonlight by [[Betilla]] the Fairy, and that this was the source of his name.
