The
Three Hares Mystery
What
does this ancient symbol mean?
It
probably had different meanings in different cultures.
What
we can be sure of, is that it has been found in holy places
of many religions.
It
has appeared in many places around the world, from roof
areas of churches in Devon to the ceilings of Buddhist cave
temples in China.
The
clever design shows three hares each with only one ear, but
joined in such a way, they appear to have two ears each.
The
Hare is believed to have mystical links to the female cycle
and to the moon that governs it.
Also
believed to have links to the Greenman.
It's
thought the Tinners guild of Devon and Cornwall carved their
badge of three hares in a
number of West Country churches. This may be because both
hares, rabbits and miners dig tunnels.
The
Hare is also associated with madness, fertility, love and
good fortune.
To
prolong the hand painted bronze effect finish, avoid placing
the ornament in direct sunlight.
