The Painted Lady - Moon Symbol
The Painted Lady, in all variations, has a crescent moon shape on her forehead.
I’ve been thinking about what that could mean.
a) She’s a guardian water spirit. The moon, in ATLA, is connected to the element water. She protects the village like Heibai protects his forest.
b) She was a healer/waterbender from long ago when the nations and the elements where one.
c) She was an Avatar from very, very long ago. (The Avatar cycle is supposed to have gone on for thousands of years and Aang does not seem to have instant recognition of his past selfs - see at the ‘tower of statues’ in season one.)
What do you think?
Crescent Moon - Full Moon
When Aang chases The Painted Lady aka Katara the moon is a crescent, when she takes off her veil it is full.
Taking my previous posts into consideration, I am starting to wonder if I am missing something big here…
Goof or not?
