The Etymology Embroidery Lexicon explores the histories, linguistic roots, and evolving meanings carried within names, mythological figures, celestial objects, and significant symbolic terms. By tracing words through their Greek, Latin, and other relevant linguistic origins, the lexicon reveals layers of meaning that can disappear when a name is treated only as a modern label. Each entry is designed to provide a clearer foundation for understanding how language contributes to mythology, symbolism, and interpretation.
Rather than using etymology as decoration, Etymology Embroidery treats language itself as part of the research process. The lexicon is designed for readers interested in mythology, astrology, classical traditions, naming systems, and the relationship between words and the ideas they have carried across time. It serves as both a stand-alone reference and a companion to the wider Penelope’s Page publication library.
