is there a magical signifigance to a crescent moon symbol?
The crescent moon is supposed to symbolize the goddess Diana. In some Luciferian aspects, the crescent along with a star in the middle is a sigil for Lucifer and Diana, this symbol is played very well in occult theology.
As according to some theories, as Lucifer is the Morning Star, this adapts very well with the crescent moon on an early morning just before dawn.
I forgot to add the "triple goddess" sybolism as well...But this can be found on wikipedia.
I think a lot of things can be found it wikipedia, and your Right it is the sign of the goddess. I had a point when i read this but its to early for me.
Thanks 'SoulShroude'....that pretty much sums that up. I actually always wanted to know that.
pretty much every aspect fo the nature has a magical symbolisms as it hold the energy of the hearth itself so by that is stronger and can influance and effect everythign else
The Full moon represents the Mother aspect
The waxing moon represents the Maiden aspect
The waning represents the Crone
The triple Goddesses of the moon cycles.
cresent moom also means wether or not it is going to rain
if it is on its back like this U it is going to rain soon
if it is on its side like this ) it is not
if it hanging hanging over like a umberella then it has already rained
you can also find it on the police cars in New Orleans.
not gonna comment about them.
The cresent moon is a sacred symbol of the Goddess and also a symbol of magic and the secret powers of Nature.
I really enjoy the crescent moon, as it brings a sense of calm and relaxation, as well as it being pretty to look at ;)
the cresent moon has many old connections to magic, but I'm not sure of them all. It is even tied to most middle eastern religions in some form or another
The crescent moon and star is also an internationally-recognized symbol of the faith of Islam. The crescent moon and star symbol actually pre-dates Islam by several thousand years. The Ottoman Empire began affiliating the crescent moon and star with the Muslim world.
That is probably why it appears in the National Flag of Turkey Tego :)
Tomorrow night in the western hemisphere we have the blood moon :) Now there is a lot of supertition with that
Eeek, I sware there is a ghost in my computer, I never pressed enter for that about post!!! Sorry for spelling error it was away before I could correct it! Anyway, talking about being superstitious tomorrow's moon is the one to watch for :)
It had a magical significance? I just thought it was due to the position of the sun and the earth. lol
ok so im clueless what are we supposed to watch for ..in tommorrows moon?
The crecent moon also represents the Islamic faith. The origin of represention the area comes from its ancient ties to Mesopotamia known as the Fertile Crecent. It was a major center of commerce known for its riches and great cultural center. This is just anthropologically/historically speaking..and has nothing to do weith magic .but i did answer the question :)
But many Muslims reject it as a symbol of Islam and traditionally the faith has had no symbol. They consider it an ancient pagan icon.
Each month has a moon..when full
Blood moon is to plan a ritual for those who have passed over.
You are absolutely right. In the Koran they do no like depictions of God this is reflected in their artwork. If you notice in modern day islamic art, the only thing you really see are patterns leaves or plants. Those who reject the crecent moon are more of the conservative side.
I wanted to bring in a couple of other factss partaining to said crescent, but I did not want to start a conspiracy involving them...But here goes anywho...
As the crescent moon is apparent in many countries flags, it is a representation as well of the Shriners, a chapter of the Freemasons.
On the fez is a symbol of Osiris, the mythical god of Egypt, encased in the scimitar and crescent, the two emblems of Mohammed. Osiris is not worshipped, but his likeness represents the hidden parts of Freemasonry, lying in the state for the unveiling of the adepts, the Houir among us.
Like in the times of Socrates, man sometimes gets carried away with the emblems and symbols, rather than the messages they hope to convey.
The fez is scarlet, emblematical of the Scarlet cord, woven into a fabric, "without seam." Between the points of the crescent, stands the Star, the Masonic Star of Fellowship, the religious star of Hope, the Eastern Star of the Message.
Another answer for you.
Glad I read this...I was kinda curious on that as well. I knew of a ledgen of the new moon goddess but not the goddess symbolized byt the cresent moon. Intresting.
