I love this! Another connection there could be is that Philip never shared his knowledge of glyphs, but Luz always showed and taught others freely. Almost like she was the true messenger of the Titan…

It's not lost on me how the Titan willingly showed Luz his language to share their power with her right from the beginning, as soon as she'd proved herself a friend to King, on a day she needed a little help to connect with him how he needed her to

The way the phone glitched when it was cracked always stood out to me as strange, and now we know why. That was the Titan intervening through reflective surfaces to share his magic with Luz for the very first time

Then we see this even more clearly with the Ice glyph, how he literally moves the stars around to show her another bit of his language with her, right as she's getting discouraged about only knowing one spell and she needs some help to get into Hexside and truly become a witch

I doubt that Fire glyph would have appeared if anybody else had caught that grudgby ball. If it would, then witches would know all about at least that glyph in particular. But nobody recognized how Luz did magic. The Titan intervened again and showed her how to make fire

And there's something kind of poetic to me that Fire is the last glyph Luz learned to become a witch fluent in the language of the Titan, and how fire is connected to humanity as one of the very first things we learned and the mastery of which helped define us as a species hundreds of thousands of years ago

When she finally learned Fire, she knew all the basic ingredients at last. She had finally stepped out of the realm of humans and had become, in her own way, a full-fledged witch. Her mastery of the element is what signified the birth of a human witch. There's a lot of symbolism to unpack in there

I'd say the only glyph Luz discovered on her own would be the one for Plants, given how they're more interested in magic than science I doubt many witches would've looked so closely at a flower before, but it's possible the Titan intervened yet again and rewarded her for her curiosity

The original human witch claimed he could speak to the Titan, but he was actually speaking to and protecting Luz from the very beginning
