The myth of the Moon Gazing Hare reflects ancient beliefs. Pagans believed that seeing a moon gazing hare would bring growth, re-birth, abundance, new-beginnings and good fortune. The hare is known to be sacred to the goddess Eostre and eventually became known as the Easter bunny. At Easter we eat Hot-Cross-Buns, the cross on the bun is said to represent the four quarters of the moon, these buns were originally pagan offerings and were often hung from rafters to scare off evil that lurked in houses.
The spiral is an ancient symbol thought to be the earliest known symbol of spirituality. It’s the symbol of the goddess, fertility, growth, rebirth and continual change. The spiral is said to represent the continued cycle of life and death. It is thought a clockwise spiral represents the first half of life and the anti clockwise spiral represents life in decline and returning to source.
