Moongazing Hare Figurine
£27.60
A beautiful sculpture in bronze finish of a hare gazing up at the moon. Cast in resin with beautiful fine detailing.
The ancient Celts believed that the goddess Eostre's favourite animal and attendant spirit was the hare. It represented love, fertility and growth and was associated with the Moon, dawn and Easter - death, redemption and resurrection. Eostre changed into a hare at the full Moon. The hare is sacred to the White Goddess, the goddess of the moon.
The sculpture is 180mm (18cm or 7 and 1/4 inches) high.
The symbol of the moon-gazing hare is almost universal and dates back to ancient times. It symbolizes fertility. Pagans believed moon-gazing hares would bring growth, re-birth, abundance, new beginnings and fortune. To others, the hare symbolized purity, and a single hare was often used to signify the Virgin Mary's purity.
