Olga,
"Shoot the moon" has a lot of different meanings; some are vulgar (the act of pulling your pants down to expose your naked rear end) and others relate to card games like poker or hearts. Shoot the moon can mean "leave without paying the rent" or " to leave home secretly in the moonlight."
Here are a few of the positive meanings of "shoot the moon" or "shoot for the moon".
1) aim high, set ambitious goals for yourself
2) adopt a risky strategy with the hope of achieving excellent results.
