The Moon Symbol

Traits: Protector & Guardian of the Earth by Night

Description: The Moon was the exclusive crest of only a few of the highest-ranking chiefs among the Haida; rights to this crest are still inherited. Raven is said to have released Moon and the stars are pieces of Moon, flung into the sky. An eclipse was said to be a codfish trying to swallow the moon and a bonfire, set with green boughs, choked the cod and stopped it.
