born under the sign of the wheel and with gibbous selûne under the sign of the chalice
those born under the sign of the golden wheel are determined, self-motivated, enthusiastic and responsible. natural leaders, they remain calm in a crisis and are not easily swayed by opposition. although serious minded, they are cheerful and optimistic and do not give up easily.
those born with selûne under the sign of the chalice are mercurial, innovative, creative and confident. easily bored, they crave mental stimulation and challenge. they are eloquent and gifted performers, exuding natural charm.
the sun in the second decan of the wheel: the sun in this decan indicates a highly creative individual, who responds to life with vigour and enthusiasm.
gibbous selûne in the second decan of the chalice: selûne stationed here tends to lack stability and encourages both physical and mental restlessness.
the ability to act without conscious thought, giving her the finesse of a stage magician || little difficulty focusing on dangerous tasks
birthstone: diamond, stone of spirituality, protection, courage, and strength
lila would give almost anything to be reborn as anyone else—anything else. she has never had any desire to be who she is, but it is difficult to fight one's nature. singing and dancing were lovely, and something she would have loved no matter who she was born as, but the attention they often called to herself as well as her sisters was unwelcome. even as she struggled to remain true to who she wanted to be, she had to do what she needed to do to survive, and sometimes, that included things she didn't want to do, but she would always defend herself, and her sisters, at any cost.
her life was carefree, but her heart was not, and these struggles wore her down, over time. she felt that she needed to see more of the world, to better understand her place in it. she wanted to love being who she was, but as things were, she was unable to do so. she thought perspective might allow her to better understand herself, though she was loathe to leave her sisters and the mostly happy life they enjoyed. still, she knew that it would be something that she would have to do for herself eventually.
when she finally left her sea home, she found the world a very different place than she imagined. using her magic to glamour herself that her true nature might not be known, she passed from place to place and promptly fell in love with the world. and, eventually, with someone who showed her that she was strong enough to do anything, even to be someone she could be proud of being.
varan was everything lila could have asked for in a man, and she could ask for a lot. she absolutely adored him, and even as she struggled to keep her distance for his own good she found herself being drawn in to his world. he became everything to her, and he gave her another reason to fight against her destructive nature. he made her stronger, and gave her the courage to reject the part of herself that she had never wanted, but she knew she could never be anything to him.
the night she finally revealed her true identity to him, her face was streaked with tears. she had cried for hours before she was able to work up the nerve to tell him the truth about who she was, and the things she had done. what she was. her heart pounded so loudly in her chest and ears that she couldn't hear his response, but when he kissed her, she knew that she had made the right choice with him.
though it was several more years before they were married, the couple was fiercely dedicated to each other and nothing would tear them apart, though they faced their share of trouble and then some. less than a year after their wedding, their first daughter. she was followed by another daughter, and then their youngest, a son.
