Umm.. no?
It never was stated when their birthdays is. Despite the fact Luna was called younger they still can be born at the same time (as deities). You overanalyze and fanonize it way too much, but I agree about the dates - those are Celestia's and Lina's days to celebrate Sun or the Moon. |

This is all some guy's headcanon. It's not a part of the show. |

That's actually kind of cool, it'd been nice for fanfiction. |

If you look at some deities in legends, you can have them born only minutes apart but look around 20+ years apart, so for all we know Luna could only be about 12 hours younger. |

I do think having there birthdays on the solstices is a good idea anyway. |

I think they are just very talented sisters that somehow managed to find immortality and ultimative power.
Consider the fact, that Blueblood is not directly related to tthem, but their nephiew! This means they had mortal siblings. |

I doubt that they are dieties. There are possibly more alicorns too. Celestia mentions that when she and Luna saw Discord ruling over the three pony kinds, they discovered the elements of harmony to defeat him. This implies that She and Luna were living separate from the pegasi, unicorns, and earth ponies. It also implies that they previously held no power or rule over the three pony kinds since she did not say Discord overthrew her's and Luna's rule. Also Luna and Celestia didn't act to overthrow Discord until after he had been cruelly reigning over them. As for their long lifespans, it could just be that Alicorns, particularly very powerful ones like Luna and Celestia, have exponentially longer life spans that pegasi, unicorns, and earth ponies. |

in my head canon Tia and Lulu are Gods. Discord is a daemon of chaos who started fucking shit up. Lulu and Tia saw what they did and created the Elements of Harmony to defeat him. |

I actually like this one, but I'd add a caveat:
"However many more years the older has, though, are dust in the wind compared to their current age." |

Nah, my guess is they've FORGOTTEN their actual birthdays, what with changing calenders and such, so have decided to celebrate their birthdays on the most symbolically appropriate day.
Which would be Winter Solstice for Celestia (because from then on days grow longer) and Summer Solstice for Luna (because from then on nights grow longer). |
