Crescent is actually the moon in its fifth day phase- Lord Shiva- Chandrasekhara

 Crescent is actually the moon in its fifth day phase- Lord Shiva-  Chandrasekhara


Crescent: Lord Shiva is typically pictured as wearing a crescent-shaped ornament on one side of his head. This is why he is often called 'Chandrasekhara' meaning "Having the moon as his crest". The Crescent is actually the moon in its fifth day phase and symbolizes the time cycle through which creation evolves from the beginning to the end. 

The moon is a measure of time. The Lord is the Eternal Reality and He is beyond time. 

Thus, the crescent moon is only one of His ornaments, and not an integral part of Him.
