Jonathan sims who’s eyesight has been progressively improving throughout the seasons. Jonathan sims who is first delighted then later horrified. Jonathan sims who continues to wear glasses out of spite, despite them making his head hurt and blurring his now perfect vision. Jonathan sims who holds onto his glasses as something that makes him human, reminds him of his humanity. Just like. Jon holding onto his glasses until the end. Holding onto his humanity until the end. Even when it hurts

Here’s a wild fan theory:

You see these blue triangles on Din’s gauntlets?

And these two little triangles on Boba’s (Jango’s) helmet?

And kind of here on Jaster’s cuirass?

I’ve pondered the significance (there was a post that made the connection between the triangles on the armour of various Mandalorians and clones, but I can’t find it anymore) and here’s my wild little theory.

You know what’s significant in Mandalorian culture and associated with the number three? The three Mandalorian gods Kad Ha’rangir, Arasuum and Hod Ha’ran.

So maybe for the Taung the triangle was a symbol of the three gods, the cosmic battle between growth and stagnation, and the Mandalorian faith as a whole. I like the idea of the triangle standing on one of its corners (“upside down”) ▽: the two upper corners are growth and stagnation, the bottom corner represents the fickle nature of fortune which may at any point tip the scales this or that way. The arrangement of the corners is also reminiscent of the iconic T-visor, and in that way, the T could be another representation of the idea of these teetering scales of cosmic battle.

After the Mandalorian Wars, the Mandalorians reinterpreted their old faith, came to view the gods as metaphors, and moved towards the belief in the Manda, the collective oversoul. And perhaps they also reused and reinterpreted a lot of the old iconography.

So for the modern Mandalorians, one triangle is symbolic of the Manda, the collective oversoul and shared identity. And two triangles… well, what’s significant in Mandalorian culture and associated with the number six? The Resol’nare, or the six actions. Or in Din’s case (his gauntlets are of course a pair, so 6 corners in total), The Way of the Mandalore.

And I like to think that the placement might also be significant. Perhaps Din’s are on his hands to signify honour: “the Way guides my actions.” Boba’s over his view plate might signify vision. Jaster’s around his kar’ta, perhaps justice or faith. Near the mouth parts, truth. On the back of the helmet or on the back plate, it might be a protective cantrip: “watch my back.” And on the shins or feet, a wish for the Manda to guide one’s steps.

The Mirror🪞

Why are Sirens always checking their reflections in the mirror?

Full Post @Patreon.com/honeysiren

Sirens pride themselves in their appearance but the mirror is also a deeper symbol for self awareness.

When you gaze into the mirror, you are faced with your reflection and the truth of who you are. Mirrors are tools that allow us to see our true selves, but it is always up to us, whether or not to accept what is there, flaws and all or reject it.

When leaning your Siren song this is the first step, because you must be able to look in the mirror and love what you see, flaws and all.

Aphrodite, The Goddess of love, holds up a mirror to represent the unconditional self love she has for herself. Self love is required in order to become the best version of yourself. Aphrodite adores all that she is, without negative self judgements.

Your Siren appeal isn't based solely on how beautiful you appear to others or how talented you are. It's actually not necessary to be super talented or beautiful at all. Creating an hypnotic Siren Song, is all about your ability to bring out your best qualities unapologetically to create an alluring and hypnotic effect.
