Xeresian Astrology
The Twelve Celestial Signs of Xeres
In the world of Xeres, the positions of the three moons (Verdant, Lumina, and Umbra) at the time of one's birth are said to influence their destiny. Each birth sign spans the latter half of one month and the first half of the next, embodying the transitional nature of time and the blending of seasonal energies. These celestial patrons are believed to imbue those born under their sign with complex, sometimes contradictory traits and affinities.
The Three Moons of Xeres
The celestial influences that shape Xeresian astrology come from the three moons that orbit the planet, each with its own unique properties and cycles.
🟢 Verdant (The Green Giant)
Cycle: 28 days (one full month)
Massive, with a distinct green hue visible even during the day. Associated with nature, growth, and primal magic. Farmers plant crops according to Verdant's phases.
⚪ Lumina (The Silver Messenger)
Cycle: 7 days (one week)
Small, bright silver, moves quickly across the night sky. Linked to communication, travel, and divination magic. Merchants and travelers plan journeys based on Lumina's position.
🟣 Umbra (The Shadow Keeper)
Cycle: 84 days (one season)
Medium-sized, dark purple, often appears hazy or partially obscured. Connected to secrets, mysteries, and illusion magic. Believed to reveal hidden truths during its full phase.
