Moon
The spiritual significance of the crescent moon or ‘luna’ has ancient roots in feminine empowerment, representing the feminine moon goddess, Selene, in Greek mythology, the curves of Diana, the goddess of hunting’s bow in Roman mythology and the female yin to the sun’s male yang in ancient Chinese philosophy. Today, it is also widely recognised as a motif of dreams and new beginnings – a positive energy talisman. Traditionally, jewellery embellished with or formed as crescent moons were given to a loved one on a full moon, when, legend has it, they would always hold the gift giver deep in their hearts.
