This arresting crescent moon pendant sparkles brightly, like a shimmeringmoon on a dark, silent night. Manylarge and small crystals create a glitteringeffect that catches the eyes. An ornate filigree design adorns the sides of the pendant.

The moon is ever-changing, growing from a thin sliver to a round, glowing orb and then slowly fading back again to nothing.

In this subtle way, it reminds us that all things on Earth have a natural cycle. Water evaporates from the ocean and falls again as rain. Fruit falls from a tree, carrying a seed that grows into a new tree.

We are born, mature into adults, and eventually die, but our children are there to start the cycle over again.

These cycles of growth and decline are also seen as symbols to guide our own personal development. The new moon is a time to make new plans. The waxing and full moon are a time to take action and for reaching the height of power. The waning moon is a time for reflection and purging - a time to get ready for the cycle to begin again.
