Okay, so I’ve been seeing this “priestess symbol” thing pop up everywhere lately, and I got curious. I mean, who doesn’t love a good mystery, right? So, I decided to dig in and see what I could make of it. It’s time for a little DIY project!
Getting Started
First things first, I needed to figure out what this symbol even looks like. I started with some good old-fashioned internet searching. I typed in “priestess symbol” and, boy, did I get a lot of different stuff! It was a bit of a mess, with tons of variations and interpretations.
I spent some time just browsing, clicking on images, and trying to find something that seemed consistent. It felt like detective work, piecing together clues. I finally narrowed it down to a few common elements that kept appearing:
- A circle: This seemed pretty basic, and it showed up in almost every version.
- A crescent moon: Usually inside the circle, sometimes pointing up, sometimes down.
- Some kind of dividing line: Often a horizontal line through the circle, sometimes a cross.
Experimenting with Designs
Armed with this basic idea, I grabbed a pen and paper and started sketching. I’m no artist, but that’s okay! This was about the process, not perfection. I drew a bunch of circles, played with different moon shapes, and tried out various line placements. Some looked cool, some looked… well, not so cool. It was a lot of trial and error.
Then I had an idea! I don’t know why I get this, I found some craft supplies – some air-dry clay, to be exact. I rolled out a small piece, used a bottle cap to cut out a circle, and then used a smaller cap to make the crescent moon shape. I used a toothpick to draw a line across the middle. It wasn’t perfect, but hey, it was starting to look like something!
Making It My Own
After the clay dried, I decided to paint it. I went with a simple dark blue for the background and a silvery color for the moon and line. It felt very… mystical. I even added a tiny bit of glitter, because why not? Everything’s better with a little sparkle.
The whole process took a couple of days, mostly because of drying times. But it was fun! It was like I was creating my own little piece of something ancient and mysterious. I also took the clay I did for practice and pressed them together again to create a new shape, and tried it over again.
So, there you have it – my little adventure with the priestess symbol. From internet rabbit holes to a finished (and slightly wonky) clay creation. It’s not about having a perfect symbol, it’s about the journey of discovery and making something your own. I learned some history from the internet and use tools and materials to bring my ideas to life.
