Well, for starters, here's a quote from wiki:
"Moe (??, Moe? /moe/, pronounced mo-eh literally budding, as with a plant) is a Japanese slang word originally referring to fetish for or love for characters in video games or anime and manga. For example, ??????, meganekko-moe, glasses-girl moe, describes a person who is attracted to fictional characters with eyeglasses. Since then, the term has come to be used as a general term for a hobby, enthusiasm, or fetish (non-sexual)????, tetsudou-moe, train moe, is simply a passionate interest in trains."
Now, based on this, this is how I see it: it can either be used as an adjective, replacing words like "cute", "hawt" etc etc when talking about a female character. It can also mean your fetishes more in general, for example that you like characters wearing megane, seifuku, have long/short hair etc or even non-female character things like mecha and trains. Like K>>478218said, there's more definitions than one out there and I'm not sure if I've managed to grip the concept fully either...
Also, have a random moe picture! /o/
