01

More than an astronomical event

A conventional eclipse is the visible meeting of celestial bodies. A True Eclipse is the convergence of three aspects of reality around one location, being, or operation. A solar eclipse may symbolize or accompany it, but is not inherently required.

02

What alignment enables

When the barriers between aspects are temporarily thinner, some operations that ordinarily need several distinct spells can be coordinated as one working. Lunor may be particularly suited to such operations because of his constant Signature and bond with the Sanctum.

03

Cost

A True Eclipse is not an unlimited power mode. It requires precise correspondence, stable Lumen flow, and control. A failed alignment can damage a manifestation, scramble perceptions, or close intended Thresholds.

04

Visual language

Cyan is associated with perception and knowledge, orange with manifestation and change, and full eclipse imagery with convergence. These are motifs and working aesthetic rules, not necessarily fixed universal laws.
