so the moon of the day my older brother was born was a waning gibbous and mine was a waxing crescent... they complete each other and when they do they become a full moon... and the funny thing is.. the day my mother was born there was a full moon...

#what is this...#that’s so romantic hwelp. how did you do that mother hahfnnewjdkcjkdnggjkd 🥺😔#we were just talking about the phases of the moon and suddenly i wanted to learn how was the moon when i was born fnrnejdjkdmcjf #and then it led to here. crescent might be my fav moon phase🥺 it’s also because like... yk i’m turkish hahdhfnwhqjddmkwkfjjf #(we have a crescent moon and a star on our flag in case you didn’t know->🇹🇷)#(wait it’s waning crescent not waxing but still‚ it’s the same in turkish fhrnenwjskksnfh)#(also the translation of crescent in turkish is also a name which i love‚ ‘hilal’🥺)#it says on the internet besides the meaning of ‘crescent’ hilal also means ‘shiny‚ to brighten up’ ... when people see crescent moon again #after the new moon‚ the phase that moon disappears a while‚ they used to shout in excitement all around and tell each other that the #moon is back? and that can explain why the crescent moon is named after a word also means something shiny / something that brings happiness #because seeing moon again brought them happiness at that time🥺#i don’t know if that’s really true or not? but it says so and there are similar words (shiny‚ praising‚ celebrating..) with the same origin #and i also thought that was cute! like yes. name moon after those shiny meanings‚ that’s what she deserves #end of my moon journey‚ 긑!#(we thank to beomgyu btw cuz it all started with me remembering that to the question “what was the moon’s shape on the day txt debuted”#he answered with the correct answer within a second ahhfnrwnjskxjfh (...the answer is waning crescent) and i wondered mine too...)
