Celestial Sparkle Champagne Star & Moon Crystal Earrings Gold Color

This is a pair of gold colored star and crescent rhinestone earrings. The crescent hangs below the ear and features champagne and white rhinestones. The star serves as the stud and has a pinky peach color to it.

The symbol of a crescent moon and star has been used since antiquity.

The Greeks used it to represent the goddess Diana, the Carthaginians used it to represent their goddess Tanit, and it was used in worship in Central Asia and Siberia.

The symbol has been used by cities and to commemorate battles.

It has been imprinted on coins, flown on flags, and approximately one thousand years ago, it was painted on the ceiling of a rock canyon in the American southwest.

Some of these artifacts may also record the supernova that created one of the jewels of the night sky, the Crab Nebula.

There are several records that document the supernova in 1054. In the records of the Chinese Sung Dynasty, a “guest star” was observed in the constellation of Taurus.

A Japanese observation describes a nova as bright as Jupiter and in Arizona, New Mexico, and Baja California, Mexico, indigenous people were painting a crescent moon near a star on canyon walls and boulders. But are these the only records of Supernova 1054?

To find of the meaning of the symbol moon and the stars you'd have to look to ancient civilizations.

The rulers or shamans would look to the moon for when to plant, when to sow and other festivals because until written language this was their only way to do things by the repetition of the moon each month.

The stars were used for navigation.

So to say the least they would both represent direction or courses/events/plans to follow.

And it could just be that the first person to make the symbol of out metal just like the symbolizing of something magical, bigger than the person and the beauty of the two most prominent things in the sky.
