Abstract

Lunar symbols refer to features that are related to functions and holy manifestations of the Moon (as a goddess). These features generally include transformation, adjustment of time, making fate, fertility and rain bearing, revitalization, death and resurrection. Anything or phenomenon that has one or more of these attributes presents a lunar symbol and the Moon dominates it. The Lunar symbols have also been reflected in Iranian national Legends. The Legend of "Cheshme Pari", selected from Iranian Legends and Fairy Tales Encyclopedia, covers a collection of Lunar symbols. By using descriptive-analytical method, the authors of the present article try to examine the Legend of "Cheshme Pari" and to show the trace of worship of Moon and Water in the mythological beliefs of the Iranian people. Water is the most important symbol and element of the Legend; it is pillar of the narrative and is present at all events. Almost all of the functions related to lunar have been used in the Legend.
