Thoth (pronounced tehuti) was the Egyptian God of the moon, wisdom and magic. Ancient myth tells us that it was Thoth that ‘measured the heavens and planned the earth’. Thoth is often depicted with the head of an ibis, its crescent-shaped beak links the bird to the shape of the new moon, a symbol of a source that has governed the seasons and night and day throughout time. The shape of the tail is also an inference to the moon, forming a beautiful crescent shape.
