The Legend of the Woman Who Spoke to the Moon
🌙 The murmur of the lake
Long ago, in a village surrounded by pine trees and mist, lived a woman named Aiyanna, with a gentle heart and a night-like gaze.
Every evening, she walked to the edge of the lake to talk to the Moon.
The elders said that she did not pray… she truly conversed with herself.
Her secret: she could hear the voices of water spirits.
They confided in him the world's pains, the forgotten dreams of humans, the broken promises.
🌑 The disappearance
One winter, the moon stopped rising.
The sky remained empty, and the nights became so dark that people no longer dared to go out.
Aiyanna went alone into the forest, following a pale ray coming from the frozen lake.
It is said that she plunged in without fear, and that the water lit up with a silvery light before closing again.
Since then, every full moon, her voice returns on the wind.
Some say she still sings to remind humans that light sleeps in the depths.
🌌 The message from the elders
“Don’t speak to the Moon so that it can hear you.
Talk to her so she'll remember you.”
Legend says that those who listen to his song by the water's edge feel a shiver in their heart…
And if your soul is pure, the Moon will answer you.
🪶 Symbolism and meaning
