Basic Astrology Part 1
Planets 🌌
When it comes to astrology there are 10 planets , basically in every chart . (there are also many asteroids , but don't matter for now) . Each planet rules a certain sign . The Sun and the Moon are known as Luminaries and play important role . So let's start :
Sun ☀ -> represents our ego , our will , our self and rules Leo ( can also represent the father )
Moon 🌙 -> represents emotions , habits , insticts , the past , childhood and rules Cancer ( can also represent the mother )
Mercury 💬 -> represents way of thinking , communication , expressing ideas , humour , the mind and ruler of Gemini and Virgo
Venus ❤ -> represents beauty , love , aesthetics , music taste , fashion , material goods and arts and ruler of Taurus and Libra
Mars 💪 -> represents desire , drive , physical energy , combativeness , courage , how we express our anger and rules Aries
Jupiter 🍀-> represents expansion , luck , growth , wisdom , talents and rules Sagittarius
Saturn 🚧 -> represents restriction , discipline , blocks , hardship ,maturity and rules Capricorn (can also represent the father)
Uranus ⛅ -> represents rebellion , sudden change , inventiveness , quirkiness and rules Aquarius
Neptune 💒 -> represents dreams , illusions , spirituality , fantasy , beliefs and rules Pisces
Pluto 💀 -> represents taboo , sexuality , transformation , death , hidden emotions , rebirth and rules Scorpio
Moonhammer
No pretentious loretext this time. I designed this meteor-hammer belt thing a while back based on the Bakunawa, the moon-eater serpent. The look of the maw is based in part on Visayan tenegre hilts, and the moon and star are based on my uh- Idk what to call it, a brand logo I guess?
I was going to get it made for myself, then I remembered I'm not actually trained to use a meteor hammer, so-
Indeed it is!
I feel like I should add a little context for those unfamiliar.
The Bakunawa (or Bakonawa or however the spelling varies) is a giant serpent-dragon shared across several cultures in the Philippines, particularly in the Visayas area and those with whom they share close cultural ties.
It is one of several moon-eaters (alongside other giants such as the blade-feathered Minokawa of the Bagobo peoples stories), whose attempts to eat the moon have been pointed out in folklore and mythology as the cause of eclipses.
I can't say too much with confidence; I am by no means an expert on these stories, nor do I belong to the cultures that sing them. Filipino culture is anything but a monolith- it is in fact an enormous mosaic of often intersecting and overlapping cultureS (plural) that only appear to be all the same color if you're not looking closely enough. As it happens, the moon-eaters I mention here belong to cultures far away from where I can claim my own ancestry; we have stories of our own where I come from.
What I can say is that the Bakunawa tends to make an appearance on figural hilts on Philippine blades. I placed an example of a tenegre hilt in the original post, and added here some more examples of Bakunawa hilts on kampilan swords.
It may be that the figural hilts were originally meant to depict something else, or were known by other names, but blade collectors, smiths, and enthusiasts frequently refer to them as Bakunawa hilts in the present day.

" No sé cuánto tiempo estaré aguantando...
Sé que hiciste lo mejor que pudiste Sé que tenías buenas intenciones
Pero me empujaste hasta el borde, me resbalé y luego caí "
New PFP and a background! :D
(The picture of Lunar was a joke- "POV: Lunars confession to Gemini")
Both made by me proudly >:]
Resûl-i Ekrem sallallahu aleyhi ve sellem sabahleyin şöyle dua ederdi:
“Allâhümme bike asbahnâ ve bike emseynâ ve bike nahyâ ve bike nemût ve ileyke’n-nüşûr: Allahım! Senin lutfunla sabaha ulaştık, senin lutfunla akşama erdik. Sen isteyince dirilir, sen isteyince ölürüz. Yeniden diriltip huzurunda toplayacak olan da sensin.”
Akşamleyin şöyle dua ederdi:
“Allâhümme bike emseynâ ve bike nahyâ ve bike nemût ve ileyke’l-masîr: Allahım! Senin lutfunla akşama erdik. Sen isteyince dirilir, sen isteyince ölürüz. Huzuruna varılacak olan da sensin.” (Ebû Dâvûd, Edeb 101; Tirmizî, Daavât 13. Ayrıca bk. İbni Mâce, Duâ 14)
Ppl always told me that freckles are like sun kisses.
I think it's ironic, because I have freckles, but my name means moon

Fire and Ice
Two more just for fun/practice illustrations.
I made this when I went on my first fyre trip (bote that carries cars and you) and I liked how the water looked trailing behind so I made this.
Proud of the water girl, not so proud of the two others tho. I still had a lot to learn on them.
Art can be found here! I love moon so much. Misunderstood fr.
I need more ideas for Daycare Attendant songs though.
