Humans have gazed up at the moon for centuries and, in that time, have associated it with various beliefs.
One of the most popular meanings linked to the crescent moon is its symbolism of femininity and fertility by exuding nurturing energy and its link to lunar goddesses in Greek and Roman mythology.
A crescent moon, in particular, is said to represent a new phase of life. It is the natural cycle that we have to embrace and take as a reminder of the inevitability of life and death.
Other than the symbolism already attached to it, keep in mind that wearing a crescent can mean whatever you want. Perhaps you like astronomy, or you feel it connects with your femininity—channel your own beliefs into it and make it your own.
Spirituality and religion have used the crescent moon for hundreds of years, but it's easy to say the symbol has continuously increased in popularity.
Alternative fashion is no longer as unconventional as it once was and is now working its way into mainstream trends. Even if you're not necessarily into symbolism, the crescent moon is a beautiful jewellery piece that will collect compliments wherever you go.
Along with its rich symbolism that lots of people relate to, whether it be femininity or a new stage of life, the crescent moon is a practical motif to work with.
It can be turned into earrings, necklaces, rings, and anklets while maintaining individualistic elements. Shop our Crescent Moon Zirconia Studs to join in on the fun.
Store your crescent moon earrings in a small size bag when you're not wearing them.
The crescent moon can also be worn upside down, but it carries a different meaning from the typical position.
Also referred to as an 'inverted moon', this symbol is used to protect against evil spirits such as demons and witchcraft. This began in ancient Rome when little girls were often gifted inverted crescent moon necklaces as an amulet to serve them through to adulthood.
Serving as protective talismans for little girls also coincides with the moon's representation of female power. So, no matter which way the crescent moon is facing, your feminine side will connect to it.
To create more texture and add a layer of elegance, pair your moon earrings with a sterling silver chain.
It's common to see the sun and moon used together in jewellery designs, and the main reason is to showcase the balance between both feminine (the moon) and masculine (the sun) energy.
The sun has long been seen as a masculine figure and, in some cultures, is considered a masculine deity. Together, they create the powerful harmony of life.
Wearing both sun and moon earrings also serves as a reminder of the cycle between light and dark. As well as referring to the earth's daytime and nighttime, people wear them as encouragement to go with the flow as no matter what we do, life goes on.
