Antlers, and likewise, the Moon, are associated with feminine energy.  The fuller the Moon, and perhaps the larger and antlers, the more powerful and attuned we become.

As archeologist Marija Gimbutas points out in 'The Language of the Goddess,' "The belief in mortal women who can change into deer and who appear in groups is perhaps a folk memory of deer priestesses.  There may have been a ritual in which the priestesses donned and doffed their vestments, a deer hide with antlers."
