Description Despite her reputation of being,not only being one of the most well kept ponies  in equestria, but a goddess, Celestia proves to be one of the most... clumsy ponies to date. Despite her knowledge of running a kingdom, she has not been spared from a dark past of her own. 

Before she had the sad future of sending her sister to the moon, she was quite strong hoofed. Watching over her kingdom was her only priority. Especially after her mentor's disappearance, she felt the need to hold the rest of her kingdom up without  the pillars of equestria to help guide and protect it alongside her. She had felt as if the world of equestria weighed on her shoulders.

This of course had consequences. With her new found priorities, she hadn't once realized just what her new frame of mind had for those around her. She hadn't noticed just how her actions were affecting her sister. With this growing isolation between the two, Luna had shut her sister away, leaving Celestia to realize just what her actions had caused. With the attack of Nightmare Moon at hand, Celestia hadn't an idea of how to fend off this new threat. She had always had her sister by her side to help her out, and without the guidance of her mentor to help, she had done what she had thought was necessary for her people. Sending her sister away. 

As Nightmare Moon was no longer a threat, Celestia was left to wonder just what to do next. Without someone to help her, she had made the decision to raise the new upcoming princesses to help her along the way. One of which being a young Cadence, and bringing a new student, Twilight Sparkle, into the picture. Though, as the thousands of years passed, Celestia had made a moral decision to not only watch over her kingdom, but to guide those in her kingdom, no longer ruling with an iron hoof. 

Though, as her sister was returned to her side, she had done her best to repair what she had once done. Proving to her sister that she had changed along side her sister in all this time. With a much more lenient Celestia ruling over equestria, she had felt more... at ease. Able to be herself, allowing for others to help her, not being alone after so long. 

 

AAAAAAAHHHH the OG sun butt! i had had a thought of where i wanted to go with her character, but wasn't always sure what i wanted to do with her character. Though, the story had always seemed pretty linear, one thing i knew i wanted to change, was her design. Though i know that sisters don't always look alike and the whole sun and the moon aesthetic was what they were going for, i always thought they didn't really... look alike. so! i decided to kind of... overhaul sun butt. making "sun spots" all over her to mimic her sister's design. and instead of the more pastel look, i went for a more... "sun" look! 

Hope y'all enjoy the shorter Headcanon. I really enjoyed making this lil design!

Oh, I love this design for Celestia!  Very strong and bold color scheme.  You can really feel her connection to the sun here.  Celestia in the show never really looked like she had a connection to the sun, other than her cutie mark, did she?  Maybe taking on Luna's duties for so long affected her appearance, making her more in-between or something (I mean, the way her mane looks like an aurora makes me think of night more than day, right?).  Anyway, this is a great headcanon design for Celestia!

Why thank you!!! I did my best to do a bit more of a different take on Celestia. Her design is fine, but I feel like it could have been pushed a bit more

You're welcome!  You did a great job!  Also, yeah, I agree.  There's nothing wrong with her design, but the sun-aspect definitely could've been emphasized more.  I think I might try my own redesign of Celestia at some point, like how she'd look in the present day of my next gen after passing on her role as ruler to Twilight.  I would probably try swapping the pink/blue/green in her mane for red/orange/yellow, and perhaps tint her coat a little orange as well, so that she would resemble the colors of a sunset, showing how her time as ruler has passed.  You're inspired me!
