In the Ballad, "Sir Patrick Spens," it speaks of the new moon with the old moon in her arms that the sailors saw the night before they were to set sail. The language used is figurative for a crescent moon and this was a foreshadow that something bad might happen when they sailed. It was a type of superstition.

What is the symbolic meaning of the moon for Catholics?

In Catholic semiotics (symbols and significations) the moon usually represents mutability or change. This is not original to Catholicism; the moon has been used as the basis of religions, lunar calendars, time-keeping and superstitions since man looked to the sky. This is because the moon is constantly waxing and waning and moving through the sky. This mutability is not a positive thing. Probably the most popular image in Catholic iconography depicting the moon is the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe, a miraculous image placed on the tilma (cloak) of Blessed Juan Diego by Our Lady Herself. In the image she is standing on the moon, the changeable things of this world, communicating to us not to trust in worldly things but rather in her patronage before God.
