Farandole under the red moon, leaf and moon earrings in silver and carnelian

"Farandole under the Red Moon" is a pair of earrings that weaves a link between nature, the moon, and the cycles of life—themes deeply rooted in pagan and ancient beliefs. They embody the dawn of autumn, that period of transition when the earth, after generously bearing its fruits, enters a phase of rest. The changing colors of the leaves, shades of red, gold, and copper, resonate in the design of these jewelry pieces, symbolizing both the end of the harvest and the emergence of a new cycle.

These earrings are inspired by the celebrations of Samhain, a major Celtic festival that marks the end of the agricultural year and the beginning of the dark season. More than just a period of apparent death, this festival represents the continuity of natural cycles where death prepares for rebirth.

The silver moons adorning these earrings are not mere decorations, but symbolize the lunar phases and the fluidity of time. Indeed, in pagan and Celtic traditions, the moon is often perceived as a manifestation of the divine feminine, governing the tides, harvests, and even human moods. The lunar cycle directly influences growth and transformation, which these pieces of jewelry seek to evoke by harmoniously blending natural and lunar symbols.

Carnelian may refer to the "full red moon" (or blood moon). This is an astronomical phenomenon occurring during lunar eclipses. For the Celts, as for other ancient cultures, this unusual color of the moon could be perceived as an important omen.

The cut edges of these earrings subtly recall the oak leaf, a symbol of strength and wisdom.

These earrings are a true invitation to reconnect with nature and its cycles.
