Origin & Lore

Offering dishes are among the oldest ritual objects, used in temples and household shrines to present food, flowers and incense. The triple moon symbol belongs to modern paganism and represents the phases of the moon and of the Goddess. Carved from pink calcite, this plate suits gentle, loving and lunar work.

Waxing, full, waning: the triple moon shows a whole lunar month in one shape, and modern witches read it as maiden, mother and crone.

The idea of a triple goddess as maiden, mother and crone was set out by Robert Graves in The White Goddess (1948) and adopted widely in Wicca and neopaganism. Ancient religion knew triple goddesses of its own, such as Hecate, often shown in triple form, but the triple moon symbol itself is modern.
