Being born in the month of February is perhaps one of the main reason why I’m such a believer of spiritual and energy powers of the things around us.  One great example is the belief that the moon holds a great power among us. Believed to be mystical and powerful, the moon defines and affects who we are as a person. The shine that it gives every night is just an understatement of the mystical power it holds just like the moon glow jewelry.

Since the ancient time, the first people believe that the moon signifies many different things. They use it to identify the time of the year and even help them to go to places without holding a map. They say that the Moon Goddess is a giver of life and possesses power to help fertility.  One attitude and character is also associated in the moon.

The Moon Glow Accessories is indeed a great gift for someone who believes in the mystical power of the moon. The first time I saw it on a fellow blogger, I told myself that it would be a great gift for my birthday.  They say that I’m such a lucky gal in may different aspect and yes for once, I would agree with them because my wish just came true.

We all have a different character, good and bad side which make us who we are, uniquely different from each other.  This yin and yang necklace is just one of the many beautiful necklace collection at Moon Glow wherein you can purchase a personalized accessory featuring the moon phase of your birth.

Here’s an interesting fact about yin and yang which i got from their website,

Taijitu symbolizes the natural dualities, such as male/female, up/down, hot/cold, life/death, or light/dark. Each side of the circle contains the “seed” of the other. Yin (the female blue side) is the “shadow”, and Yang (the masculine gray side ) is “light.” A good analogy for the Yin-Yang relationship is the way the sun dances on a mountain and the valley. As the sun moves across the sky, Yin and Yang gradually trade places, revealing what was obscured and obscuring what was revealed.

Everything has both Yin and Yang qualities: a shadow can not exist without light. Yin and Yang transform each other: like the waves in the ocean, there is always an ebb and flow. Yin and Yang are opposing forces dependent on a flow in a natural cycle always seeking balance, together forming two parts of a whole.

I thought that having my husband and my moon phase at the time of our birth in one necklace is a great idea but I was surprised upon learning from them that we shared one moon phase which is the 6th Descending (Waning), which come to think of it, he was born in January and I in February also with a different year. (I told hubby about this interesting news and he giggled while telling me, “you see we are meant for each other, even our moons tell it so”) funny as it seems but having the same moon phase on my necklace will look odd so I decided to just choose my son’s birth date which as you can see is just one slice different on my moon phase. I was thinking of choosing a half moon but it would not be personalized, don’t you think?
