[Opinions] Re: Themistoclea
Many winners here. Cristofania, Syncletica, Skuld lmao! Shivali, I'll permit Sopheap but that is quite swampy, Selvaggia, Sosipatra... I think Solaris is the actual #1 winnerWHat is off-putting about the meaning? Themis is one of my favorite images of divinity

Idk, Law and Glory do not seem aesthetically compatible concepts to me. They're so ugly together. Unyielding and glaring. Self-righteous, on average.Laws are necessary evils. I do like having them but not when they're glorified.I guess the most charitable way I could think of it is 'splendidness of proper proportions and natural forces'...which still seems a little priggish.
Or 'equality and order as a manifestation of the divine' doesn't seem too bad, but I don't think that'd be an honest rendering of custom and law, as concepts IRL.I don't hate it. I mostly just feel suspicious of it. Maybe because I'm left-handed, who knows.

Oh! To me natural law is the only way existence is able to manifest and do anything. Cles of themis is glory in the things about the world that make creation and some sense of predictability possible. It's a celebration of being here! But I am cap moon

hm, well maybe as a pisces moon, I would rather nurture chaos than celebrate order.
