THE STORY
The crescent moon has been considered a symbol of protection, transition and new beginnings due to its waxing and waning cycle, which represents both the time before something new begins (waxing) and after it ends (waning). This cycle can also be seen as representing life’s journey from darkness into light; it offers guidance to those who lost on their path and also reminds us there’s always hope in trying again.
The moon in any form is considered to be feminine, an empowering symbol that represents female influence, intuition and kindness as well as the power that women wield throughout the world. Crescent moons have been worn by lovers for centuries because they’re believed to signify love and fertility. In some cultures unmarried women wear them believing they’ll find their soulmate, and married couples use them to represent their lasting relationship.
The crescent moon, between full and new moon, is a phase in the monthly cycle where the interconnection of the sun, the Earth, and the moon create a sliver in the sky. While all lunar phases are rooted in this balance of celestial elements, the breathtaking view of a crescent moon is especially symbolic of the motion of this cycle, its ebb and flow. In this way, the crescent moon invites contemplation of constant change, as well as the promise of a return to center.
As the moon recedes and approaches its "new" phase once again, it starts to appear smaller. In the same way that the waxing moon encourages you to be more expansive and outgoing in your actions, the waning moon should turn your mind toward downsizing.
