MYTHIC ORIGIN & SYMBOLISM

The Moon Tarot Ring embodies the mysterious power of the eighteenth Major Arcana, The Moon, a card steeped in symbolism and ancient lore. This card traces its esoteric roots to ancient lunar deities like Selene, Hecate, and Artemis—goddesses governing hidden truths, psychic insights, and transformations. Historically, the Moon represents an intermediary passage between the visible and invisible worlds, illuminating paths shrouded in mystery and obscured by shadows.

In the Tarot, the Moon evokes illusions and profound introspection. Its imagery—twin pillars signifying gateways, a crayfish emerging from deep waters (the subconscious), and the wolf and dog symbolizing the duality between wild instincts and domesticated consciousness—invites the wearer to traverse inner landscapes with courage and clarity.

ICONOGRAPHY & ATTRIBUTES

1. Crescent Moon: Symbol of waxing intuition, psychic sensitivity, and hidden influences rising to the surface.

3. Wolf and Dog: Reflect primal instincts versus conditioned responses, urging balance between wild nature and rational control.

4. Crayfish and Water Path: Illustrate subconscious fears and hidden truths rising to awareness; the watery path signifies a journey of emotional discovery and transformation.
