The Lunar Embrace ♋︎

from $850.00

Under the Moon’s silver light, Hera called forth a loyal guardian from the depths— Karkinos, the steadfast crab. Against the Hydra’s coils and Heracles’ might, it waded, small yet unyielding, driven by devotion alone. With a single blow, the hero crushed its shell, but even in death, its service did not go unnoticed. Moved by the crab’s loyalty, Hera lifted her fallen champion into the heavens, weaving its form among the stars. From the goddess, Cancer inherits a heart shaped by tides — protective, nurturing, and fierce when those they love are threatened. Ruled by the Moon, they swell and recede like the sea, carrying its luminous rhythm in their soul. They are the embrace after the storm, the shelter in the deep, and the quiet power of a tide that always returns — forever bound to the goddess who welcomed them home..
