In ancient times, the crescent became the symbol of goddess Artemis, the virgin hunter goddess associated with the Moon. This crescent moon necklace represents the female principle, especially virginity and feminine purity. Numerous depictions show Artemis, the Roman equivalent Diana, wearing the crescent Moon as part of her headdress.
 
The ancient Wise Ones/Magi of Mesopotamia and ancient Persia celebrated the Crescent Moon each month. To begin to understand what the Crescent Moon meant to the ancients—and still means to spiritually aware people today—this necklace carries a deep symbolic heritage.
 
The Crescent Moon has long symbolized the birth of children, new leaders, and even new ages. This natural form of creativity has given life to everything on our planet. The Crescent Moon also represents the birth of new relationships, creative efforts, businesses, and personal transformations. Wearing this necklace is a reminder of renewal and continuous growth.
