Novel & Cerita Upside Down Crescent Moon Meaning

It’s not a scar at all on the back of her head instead, it’s a symbol a seal to be more accurate. The seal is the sign of the eclipse: half the sun and half the moon entwined together. The symbols of both the sun god Helios and the moon goddess Selene. I switch on the light on the bedside table to get a clearer view. It’s not possible … but her wolf is white like the moon goddess and she smells of sunshine.

Above them, the crescent moon bled crimson, a sign the moon goddess was watching them. And wrath, as all wolves knew, was a storm that always returned.

Everything went fuzzy and I was out. Present Day. I stood from the couch and walked over to the picture on the wall. I stood in front of it, moving my eyes over the mix of colours. It was like a galaxy of stars, glitter and beautiful colours. It was the kind of picture that would make someone calm and happy. It was the type of picture someone could marvel at for hours. It was the kind of picture that someone would smile at. But not me. It was the same picture that I have been forced to look at thousands of times throughout my life. I crossed my arms and my fingers moved slowly over my forearm. The fingertips traced over the countless raised scars left behind from my childhood education. I le

He responded with furrowed brows. “Oh… We call it Maan Dans in Crescent Island. It means Moon Dance." I said softly, then dropped to the wide couch I had been sitting on a few hours ago. "Unlike you, the heads of each house gather before the bonfire, slit their wrists, and gather their blood in the moon chalice. The blood is poured onto the fire, and when the flames turn blue, it means the goddess has accepted our heartfelt gratitude, and has given us the green light to continue with the celebration. And like you, we do it when the moon is at its peak." I continued and was thankful to see that the deep furrows on his forehead were easing off.

She snuck across the chilly floor and cursed the loud sound of her bare feet peeling off the polished concrete. The door was solid steel with the family crest carved into it, and she anchored her attention on it. Minnow had been taught the history behind the family fleur-de-lis since she was a child. Her fingers trailed over the familiar design. The shape of the crest was a full moon with the outline of a waxing crescent. She was told the moon was said to have the same sovereignty by night that the sun had by day. The waxing crescent reflected the new moon, showing the family were always ready to go forth with new light and added energy.

I asked wiggling my brows at him. I mean, they were supposed to be two equal halves of a full moon, symbolising our new tenure of office. I laughed at my own choice of words. And now he'd reshaped them, and the crescent is what was holding the tiny little round moon in it. "So technically, my half being bigger symbolises and means that'd I'd..." I started intentionally trailing of, he caught onto my drift and shook his head slighlty, his smile widening, his left dimple poking at me.

How could I explain years of whispers, insults, and cold looks? She's wolfless. She's weak. She's useless. "Guess I just didn't fit there," I said finally. Kael crossed his arms. His jaw tightened some. "You're Luna of Nightfall now." The way he said it sounded almost like a promise. Before I could answer, sharp pain shot across the back of my neck. I gasped softly and grabbed the spot. Same place where the glow showed up last night. Kael noticed right away. "What?" "My neck," I said. "Hurts."

I swiftly pulled away in fear, because I recognized this strange symbol, I have dreamt of this crescent, night after night as a child watching over my dreams in a third person's perspective. I never knew what it meant, but every time I saw it, it was engraved in the middle of my forehead, surrounded by a purple glow. “Wher...Where did you see this? What does it mean?” I whispered lowly to him. “Well it can mean a lot of things, a representation of your dark...mysterious side, true self-reflection but some—believers worship it, because they believe in the coming of their protector, it's the emblem of a virgin goddess,” he explained.

’ I pointed at the second symbol—an empty circle. Elena nodded. ‘Good guess. It symbolises the moon. The empty space depicts the purity of the deity.’ ‘Does that mean the dark whims are represented by a dark circle?’ I remarked, thinking it as a joke. But the Luna nodded with a serious look. ‘That’s right again.’ She squinted at me. ‘You’re pretty good at this.’ I shrugged, noting that the third symbol is the same as the second, so I moved onto the next one—an inverted triangle, the one in the circle of the first symbol. ‘What does this mean?’

Crickets and owls were the background tune as Icelyn and I walked around the fortress. I had made her wear my coat. I didn't tell her the fur was mine. I didn't have the strength to explain that to her just yet. But I could transmit some heat to her even better than earlier because she wore me. “The moon, it's really pretty,” she said all of a sudden. I looked up to see the crescent moon in the sky. “The crescent moon signifies new begining in our realm. It's the start of a new phase. When people want to count down to a special occasion, they start with the crescent and end on a full moon,” I explained.
