Lunar Lore

The crescent moon, set like a silver signet in the western sky, delayed a little the approach of night. – Stowe …

The Mother is the giver,

We value what she gives.

Her earthen power has given Life to all that lives.

The Moon in opposition to Mercury, shews a good day for all things, except Writing and Contracts. ~ Bethem’s “Centiloquium”.

For ages the army of spirits, once so near, has been receding farther and farther from us, banished by the magic wand of science from hearth and home, from ruined cell and ivied tower, from haunted glade and lonely mere, from the riven murky cloud that belches forth the lightning, and from those fairer clouds that pillow the silvery moon… – Frazier, “The Golden Bough.”
