Moon Lore

Timothy Harley’s "Moon Lore" explores the moon’s role in myth, folklore, religion, and popular belief. Historically, it belongs to the nineteenth-century tradition of collecting comparative folklore and celestial symbolism; inside are stories, customs, lunar associations, and observations on how the moon has shaped human imagination.

Timothy Harley was a British writer and lecturer known for his interest in spiritualism, comparative religion, and the occult currents of the late nineteenth century. His works helped popularize discussion of psychical phenomena and esoteric belief within a broadly Victorian, reform-minded framework.
