We also find a half moon beautifully encircling the forehead of the Lord.

Moon is the symbol of soothing serenity.

Its presence on Shiva's head teaches that a worshiper of Shiva should have a cool, calm and awakened mind.

His mind should be stable and strong so that no hardship, adversity or exciting situation could ever perturb his mental peace.
