My mlp princesses redesign!  
 
First I want to apologize if there are grammar mistakes, I’m not native in the language, and I also have difficulty keeping my focus on writing and I’m not good at putting my ideas down on paper, so sorry if the texts are also confusing!  
 
These headcanons and redesign are initially before Luna’s ban/curse, but I also put parts after Luna’s return!  
In my au, the three princesses are 3 brothers (Celestia is a stallion now), in reference to the gods Helio, Selene and Eos.  
I really like how these gods are similar to mlp princesses, plus horses bring day, night and dawn together with these gods.  
Equestria is a matriarchal society, as a herd of horses, luna and cadance had more influence in the kingdom for a long time.  
These three were taken to be trained by starswirl, they were already born alicorns different from their pegasus families that brought day, night and dawn for generations Anyway, it’s just some summarized information, I have a lot of their history that I’ll unfold in other drawings!  
 
King Celeste / Phlegon  
 
“Helios circles the earth in the so-called chariot of the sun, riding the sky to the ocean to bathe the horses, starting the night. Nothing in the universe escapes his sight, which is why even the gods conjure him to act as a witness in important events. events.”  
 
-About genderbend and color choice; in many philosophical systems the Sun is the masculine energy, or yang, and the colors yellow, orange, white and gold, or a mixture of them, are associated.  
 
-Celeste is its name after the banishment of Luna, before it was Phlegon, name of one of the fire horses of Helios according to the Roman poet Ovid  
 
-Despite the intimidating appearance, Celeste is kind and laid-back, always tries to cheer up her sisters, among royalty he is the most social, paternal and friendly, loves to fit in with the ponies and gallop around the kingdom making friends with strangers, the ponies consider him an excellent King! It is a public image and takes care of matters by faithfully handling matters of diplomacy, trade and general politics,  
 
-Gardening is her hobby, she loves golden, yellow and orange flowers, her palaces are full of sunflowers  
 
-It has two palaces: the one located in the Far East of Equestria, from where he leaves every morning after waking up and his sister Cadance announces him the crystal empire, and the one that was at the end of his daily trip, in the Far -West of Equestria.  
 

• Sovereign of the sun, with extremely powerful magic linked to sunlight, heat, fire, harvest (being an important figure for terrestrial horses); I drew him with the body of a draft horse, because he has to carry the sun, he has phoenix wings, and just like one he has periods when his magic gets weaker, but instead of being seasonal it’s from day to night; your magic can end up going haywire due to being used to complex spells, a simple telekinesis spell can end up spiraling out of control and charring a hall at millions of Fahrenheit.  
   
  -Philomena is still your pet  
   
  -Had a relationship with King Sombra, are the parents of Umbra, Penumbra and Autumbra  
   
   
  Queen Luna:  
   
  “Just as Helios drives the sun-cart until nightfall to bathe the horses in the ocean, so Selene finishes bathing hers and drives them with the moon-cart across the skies until daybreak.”  
   
  -Sovereign of dreams, nightmares, psyche, astral projection, magic and witchcraft, ocean tides, hunting and cycles; her wings are like an owl, unlike Phlegon, Luna is nocturnal; It is a nightmare hunter being extremely agile and fast; Because she has owl wings, her flights are usually low, hovering around cities in equestria while the moon rises, watching over dreams and taking care of the psyche of the population, especially foals, Luna is quite maternal.  
   
  ~~Luna is underestimated and feared by many, seen as mysterious and severe; she has always lived in the shadow of her brothers, no one seems to understand her; There are many legends about her since she is not very “seen”, Luna can manifest in a frightening way in ponies dreams. Therefore it is necessary to devour “nightmares” (which are types of thought-forms) just as an owl devours its prey whole; Luna for a while lived isolated in her palace in the everfree forest, as she never felt welcome wherever she went in addition to never having adapted very well to real life because she was wilder. One night in the dark woods of everfree he met his beloved Zecora  
   
  ~~ To those who revere her as a deity, the “lunatics”, those who were touched with her horn and graced with lunar magic and therefore have greater magical knowledge; “the witches”. Luna describes Flegon and his magic as impulsive, Flegon only enjoys brutality so has difficulty controlling it; Luna has always had an easier time and control of magic since she was a filly.  
   
  -Luna starts having Twilight as her neophyte, according to her, “a being with such a powerful ancient magic within her deserves a better direction than my brother gives”  
   
   
  Empress Mi Amore Cadenza (Or just Cadance):  
   
  -Cadance’s main function is to open the “doors” of heaven, shining the crystal empire away the darkness of the night for the passage of Phlegon, thus being the Empress of the dawn (When Phlegon begins to fly, and the Sun is rising ) and dusk, more specifically, the sunset (When Phlegon returns towards the crystal empire, the Sun is setting).  
   
  -Cadance now has the title of Empress instead of Princess for running an empire  
   
  -Cadance is careful, agile, graceful, showy, outgoing, capricious and carefree. She is always described as perfect and beautiful; Cadance, like Rarity from my au, is a “Sparkle Eyed Pony”, it’s kind of imperceptible in the image but she has crystal eyes, which one of her main powers is persuasion; Cadance strengthens this magic when she opens her peacock tail, making everyone she passes through to be hopelessly enchanted by her.  
   
  -Sovereign of dawn, love, enchantment, light, your magic can break Luna’s spells waking up creatures from the deepest sleep and pouring dew on the leaves; responsible for the brightness of the Sun and the shades of the sky, it paints the sky in different shades of color, mainly pink, yellow and purple.  
   
  -Your design was very experimental, I thought the combination of wings with butterfly-shaped feathers and a peacock tail would not work very well, but I really liked it  
   
  -The hooves and horns were at first to resemble copper, because within alchemy it is the Metal of Venus, planet of love, since I made gold (sun) for Flegon and silver (moon) for Luna, but I thought it wasn’t very good oh I left it pink  
   
  -Currently married to Shining Armor, with him she is responsible for the equestria armed forces; I’m planning to make more children for them!; Flurry heart rebelled against Cadance but that’s another story
