If you saw something like this:

Then it is completely normal.


The circle you saw around the moon is called a corona; in fact it is common among celestial bodies like the sun and other planets.
They are seen when the clouds are thin enough that each single corona light ray reaching the eye is scattered or diffracted by only one droplet. Of course, the whole corona is made by a great many droplets individually scattering the moonlight.

Sometimes as clouds pass over the moon the corona shrinks and swells as different sized droplets mould it.
Small droplets make the largest coronae with aureoles a few moon diameters across.

You do not see the sun's corona because it is so bright, but you're able to see it during an eclipse.
This is what the sun's corona looks like:


So you can see, OP, that it is nothing to be scared of.

Hope this helps.
Cheers.
