I love watching the moon as it waxes and wanes....observing the changes it shows and its mysterious charm with unimaginable power. Its florescence and dominance can never be hidden even behind the creeping gray clouds, the moon shines intimidatingly on the land beneath it straight into the soul playing peek-a-boo.
The waxing and waning of moon is like the two sides of a coin or the two faces of a man. Everyone has a dark side that is known to none or a selected few. Another aspect of moon is the fact that you know it is always there whether you see it or not. It is believed to be an embodiment of loyalty.... always present whatever may be the condition or circumstance. The moon though has no light of its own and is reliant on the sun, still has a great influence. The moon has a subtle but empowering nature representing the rhythm of time and the cycle of life itself.
The moon is in glory in the midst of darkness, a vessel of unknowable power and strength. The lunar cycle has, in time, also been attributed to the various mental and emotional states of people. Sometimes the behaviour is compared to the waxing and waning of the moon. The moon is a metaphor for a lot of human aspects. With an air of mystery and magic, the moon is also associated with love and is often considered as a symbol of unattainable beauty with all its flaws.
"The moon is a loyal companion. It never leaves. It’s always there, watching, steadfast, knowing us in our light and dark moments, changing forever just as we do. Every day it’s a different version of itself. Sometimes weak and wan, sometimes strong and full of light. The moon understands what it means to be human. Uncertain. Alone. Cratered by imperfections.” Tahereh Mafi.
