A Moon Necklace with a Nude Woman On It

Are you searching for a moon necklace with a nude woman on it? Moon necklaces are a popular theme. To some people, the necklace represents a spiritual message. Other people see the necklace as a symbol of feminine strength or as a simple fashion statement. Learn about moon necklaces and where to find them.

For centuries, people all over the world associated the moon with femininity. The Chinese saw the moon as representing the Yin or feminine principle of Yin and Yang, symbolizing purity and kindness. The Greeks and Romans associated the moon with the goddesses Selene, Phoebe, Artemis, Diana and Hectate for childbirth, fertility and life cycles. Western European Judeo-Christian traditions associate the Virgin Mary with the new moon, symbolizing peace and purity.

The phases of the moon have been associated with menstruation because the average woman's twenty-eight day menstrual cycle closely matches the moon cycles. In fact, the word menstruation comes from the Greek word menus meaning moon and power and the word mens meaning month.

The moon also represents the seasons of a woman's life from youth to old age. The Wiccan triple moon goddess symbol is an example of this association. The triple moon goddess symbol is comprised of two crescent moons and a full moon to represent the three aspects of the goddess through the waxing and waning of the moon. Jewelry with this symbol is sometimes accompanied by a nude woman's form to represent the goddess and womanhood. The moon's cycle symbols represent the three stages of womanhood:

• Maiden: The waxing crescent moon represents birth, youth, innocence and virginity.
• Mother: The full moon is the symbol for sexual maturity, fertility, motherhood and female power.
• Crone: The waning moon symbolizes maturity, wisdom, peace and death.

Many triple moon goddess jewelry incorporates moonstone and amethyst because of the gem stones' symbolism and metaphysical properties.

The triple moon and moon goddess themes are popular moon jewelry themes.

As far back as ancient Greece, people used the moon symbol in jewelry. The use of the moon accompanied by a female form appeared in Art Nouveau jewelry and briefly in the 1960s. Lunar necklaces also were popular in the 1970s. Today a moon necklace with a nude woman on it can be found in many different styles.
