AHA!

To [livejournal.com profile] maybethemoon -

Thank you, you have my day. Holy crap.

Hey, guys? The symbol on Sirius's chest? It is "the coming together of the two opposing forces of the Sun and Moon."

Also, she says, "Positioned upside-down, it is also the symbol for 'amalgam,' which is the combination of mercury with another substance, preferably silver. Otherwise, it most closely resembles the sigil of Neptune.".

I think I am going to line up to also have Cuaron's babies. Dudes.

It's canon.

(Off to get up and go to work. With books. YAY!)

That is the best news I've had all week. So good, in fact, that I had to nick it and put it in my LJ, too (hope you don't mind). riouisypuyisopyfIfksh;jkfsl;hjkm,mvbnusflkhjk!!!!!

NICE. I did say it looked like the symbol for Neptune when I first saw it.

But for reference sake, do you know where she got that info? I'd like to have it - about the sun and moon. I found the Amalgamation symbol and it looks exactly like that.

And if it's true then, the star and the moon... that would be SWEEEEEEEEEEEEET!

And if not, it's still sweet that he has tattoos. :D

Hee.

Various and sundy alchemic websites, dictionaries and the lot. My dad and I spent about two hours looking it all up.

Yeah, you heard me, my DAD and I.

He understands the Light and the Way of the true canon love, man.

HEE.

I'm not sure if I know you, but I had to say that your dad ROX if he was helping you look for all that.

I was just glad that my dad didn't comment when I made a t-shirt of the two of them making out.

Hee hee.

Do you have the dopey smile? I have the dopey smile. The dopey smile of canon LUUUUUUUURVE.

Whee!

It probably just has something to do with Animagic or the like.

Hate to burst bubbles, but I'm willing to bet it has more to do with A: magic or B: friendship, than anything else.

Cuaron is much improved from Columbus, but still, I don't see at ALL why tattoos are something to get excited about.

But I'm probably just a jaded old queen.

Huh? How does that make it canon, now?

I'm sorry, I don't mean to burst any bubbles or whatnot, but they're probably going to invent some other meaning, or something. Anyway, Sirius never was the sun.

Liz, I love you dearly, but sometimes? A cigar is just a cigar.

Unless it's a bubblegum cigar, and then it means that I've been forced to go to a baby shower.

[identity profile] themorningstarr.livejournal.com 2003-07-23 02:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I love you for telling me that, Liz.

*gets in the baby line as well*

But you know... now I'll be insufferable. As if my wearing a t-shirt of the two of them making out wasn't enough... no one will ever hear the end of it now.

Can't... fight... the... urge... must...

AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Adding that the sun is a star... close enough for me. ;)

Hope your first day at work went well darlin.

I get the Sun and Moon thing but what's the deal with the mercury and silver?

Am I being thick?

[identity profile] lea-ndra.livejournal.com 2003-07-23 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
well... about the Sun thing. The Egypts (I think it was the Egypts, but I'm not sooo sure) thought that Sirius (the dogstar) was enhancing the power of the sun. It's were the expression "dog days of summer" comes from.

But the mercury and silver?

[identity profile] lea-ndra.livejournal.com 2003-07-24 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. I want to have it explained myself...

Is this the wrong place to jump in and say I hope he's wearing glasses in the film? They look kind of cool, especially with the wild hair. That said, they also look kind of like he just has two black eyes. I'm not even sure they are glasses.
