Lunulae come in all sorts of different widths - just saying. These two represent the very narrow and the very wide. Both from Ireland.

[15] Lunulae are a uniquely Gaelic jewellery form & are made of gold in a crescent moon shape. There are a group in the National Museum of Ireland. You can read about one of these 4,000y old collars in this fascinating article: irisharchaeology.ie/2013/02/stol...

I support the semi-colon. "We can thank Aldus Manutius for introducing the semicolon into Venice, in the 1490s. Where brackets, or lunulae, remind us of the moon, simply using a semicolon in a sentence links us to gondolas, to the Bridge of Sighs; to sunlight shining on the waters of the canals."
Humorous article on the decline of the semicolon: "modernity despises the semicolon. It is too courtly, too refined, too subtle."

The semicolon had its moment; that moment is over
The decline of the semicolon reflects a deeper cultural and intellectual laziness. We need to rediscover the power of punctuation.

Oooh - missing lunulae on the ring finger is linked to thyroid or adrenal fatigue. Essentially “running low on reserves.”

I spent months piecing
this jigsaw together at last, and I saw
how the arch of your foot fit the hollow
of my palm, how your head nestled
into the curve of my neck. I knew it: we fit.
