Weaver moon

As per Mayan folklore, the moon goddess was silently watching a tiny spider spinning a scintillating web at night. This arthropod is deft at the craft. Its web creates a tapestry of dancing shadows, unique in artistry.

The moon had no haughty airs for being a goddess. She softly and silently watched the spider busy tailoring its home. From a minuscule creature that society would term as insignificant when compared to the mighty moon, she modestly learnt its unique handiwork.

Soon, the moon started weaving magic on Mother Earth in embroideries of shadows of various shades of black. She couldn’t have done this alone. The trees, houses, hills, mountains and living beings became her spontaneous paintbrushes. That’s how the orb of the night spun magic on earth.

Night after night for millions of years, this celestial body has created aesthetic enchantment on our planet. Waxing, waning, crescent, full moon and in the hues of silver, white, black, gold, yellow, orange and red; the moon works as a skilled painter.

When there are no objects in the way, it shines in uniform grandeur on snowy mountains, ice caps, glaciers, sandy beaches, white volcanic mountains and marble. The landscape sparkles with the beams of silver and diamond.
