About the Collection
In ancient times, a humble yet noble hare lived on Earth. One night, the hare encountered a weary traveler who had journeyed far and was in desperate need of nourishment. Unbeknownst to the hare, this traveler was no ordinary being but a god disguised as a mortal.
Moved by compassion, the hare selflessly offered his own life as food to sustain the traveler, showing unparalleled courage and generosity. Deeply touched by the hare’s sacrifice, the god revealed his true identity and, in gratitude for the hare’s noble act, lifted him to the heavens. To honor his bravery, the god placed the hare on the moon, where he remains to this day—a shining symbol of kindness, selflessness, and eternal sacrifice, forever etched against the night sky.
The legend of the hare on the moon is a well-known tale that originates from ancient Mesoamerican cultures, including the Mexica and Maya civilizations. This story reflects the themes of sacrifice, humility, and divine recognition, deeply rooted in these cultures' beliefs and worldviews.
The legend explains why, when looking at the moon, one can see the faint shape of a rabbit etched on its surface. This enduring image symbolizes the value of selflessness and is celebrated in various legends and myths across not only Mesoamerican cultures but also in folklore from other parts of the world, such as Asia, where similar stories exist. The tale serves as a reminder of the power of kindness and the idea that even the smallest acts of sacrifice can reach celestial heights.
