CE ÎNSEAMNĂ CRESCENT ÎN ENGLEZĂ?
Semilună
În artă și în simbolism, o semilună este, în general, forma produsă atunci când un disc circular are un segment al unui alt cerc îndepărtat de la marginea sa, astfel încât ceea ce rămâne este o formă închisă de două arcuri circulare cu diametre diferite care se intersectează la două puncte. În astronomie, o semilună este forma laturii luminate a unui corp sferic, care pare să fie mai puțin de jumătate iluminat de Soare, așa cum vede spectatorul. Matematic, presupunând că terminatorul se află pe un cerc mare, o astfel de semilună va fi de fapt cifra delimitată de o jumătate de elipsă și o jumătate de cerc, axa principală a elipsei coincis cu un diametru al semicercului. Direcția în care se află fața "coarnei" indică dacă o crescentă se ceară sau se înrăutățește. Cornișoarele orientate spre est indică o coborâre ceară, în timp ce coarnele care indică spre vest indică o semilună în scădere. Rețineți că direcțiile punctului coarnei față de observator sunt inversate în emisfera sudică.

Every phase of our life belongs to us. The moon does not, except in appearance, lose her first thin, luminous curve, nor her silvery crescent, in rounding to her full. The woman is still both child and girl, in the completeness of womanly character.
'Little Night' has layers of meaning. There's something enchanted about night. All those heavenly bodies, shooting stars, the crescent moon, celestial phenomenon. Owls fly at night, and first kisses happen. Night is romantic. Alternately, darkness hides the worst of human behavior.
