Rabbit language, symbolism, and quite possibly the best familiars. Dedicated to Hoppington RIP

I hope I'm not hopping around too much from concept to concept.

Well to honor jumping, (with an added binky) on to the 3rd page It's time to start a new section...

THE 3 HARES, THE TRINITY, AND EASTER

A research team led by a British archaeologist is to travel to China in search of the origins and meaning of a mysterious ancient symbol identified in sacred sites across Britain, Europe, and the Middle and Far East.
Striking depictions of three hares joined at the ears have been found in roof bosses of medieval parish churches in Devon, 13th century Mongol metal work from Iran and cave temples from the Chinese Sui dynasty of 589-618.
Academics are intrigued at the motif's apparent prominence in Christian, Islamic and Buddhist holy contexts separated by 5,000 miles and almost 1,000 years.

I learned a bit about this in art school, then some more when esotericly digging, and then still more in the last couple days working on this thread.

It's a fun thing to draw, the concept is to draw 3 hares where if you look at just one it has 2 ears, and if you look at all 3 of them together they are sharing pairs of ears, all locking together to from a nice trinity.

The Medieval Christian used this symbol as an attempt to describe the concept of the Holy Trinity.

The first known literary reference is from A Survey of the Cathedral of St Davids published in 1717 by Browne Willis. It says: "In one key stone near the west end are three rabbits plac'd triangularly, with the backsides of their heads turn'd inwards, and so contriv'd that the three ears supply the place of six so that every head seems to have its full quota of ears. This is constantly shewn to strangers as a curiosity worth regarding."
The three hares are depicted in churches, chapels and cathedrals in France and Germany. The symbol has been found in Iran on a copper coin minted in 1281 and on a brass tray, both from the time of the Mongol Empire.
The earliest known examples of the three hares are in representations of textile canopies painted on the ceilings of Buddhist cave temples in Dunhuang, an important staging post on the Silk Road.

from the same article

3 rabbits - 6 ears - 12 legs

"It's a wonderful mystery. Obviously they've got to have a meaning, but we're not sure what it is. Was the symbol given a special status in a religious context? It has been found in a Christian context, Buddhist, Islamic and Jewish.
Motif in Egypt
The motif has even been found in Egypt
"We think we'll be able to show a Hindu context as well, although we've not been able to do that yet.

So our skittish little nose wrigglers have been around a long time, hopped all long the Silk Road to make it here.

Western Religion, Far Eastern, and everything in between, these guys get around,

Speaking of RAW, T&C-25, and rabbits...

Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit

Sorry I haven't finished the Easter part of this thread, and I have some more bunny language stuff.

I have found something really creepy and related to moon magick

which we've already learned is directly connected to rabbit lore.

I have a weird theory about this, that there is rabbit moon magick, which Is good, and then there is serpent or dragon moon magic, which is evil.

I see a dragon in the moon when I look at it, I never saw the rabbit until it was pointed out to me.

well today I ran across a weird evil moon magick thing.


I made a new thread about it here:
