This handcrafted linocut print is inspired by the sacred hare — a creature long associated with the moon, springtime renewal, fertility, and the divine feminine in folklore and myth across cultures. The image features two hares, one sleeping and one awake, poised between rest and vigilance. Beneath them, three silhouetted women dance in the glow of the full moon, echoing ancient triadic symbols such as the Three Hares and the many folkloric forms of the feminine as maiden, mother, and crone. Surrounding them, a spring landscape stirs with new life, while the phases of the moon arc above, tracing the cyclical rhythm of becoming, waning, and return. Hares have long been honored in pagan, animist, and earth-based traditions as liminal beings — messengers between worlds, carriers of lunar magic, and emblems of regeneration and abundance. This piece celebrates the entwined cycles of moon and earth, body and season, fertility and wild femininity. Symbolic, folkloric, and earthy, this rustic, hand-carved linocut is a statement piece for those drawn to witchcraft, druidry, rewilding their homes, and honoring the old stories written in fur, living earth, and moonlight.
