I swear I've seen this image on a "God is an Astronaut" cover. |

From the look of the sun, I would say this is in the far future; when all the mortal ponies have died off and Celestia is left alone on a dying world with only her memories. |

Anyone else think Philomena is looking kind of petrified? |

From the artist's page:
Commission thing for here is his description of the picture "Celestia and Philomena sitting together on some sea-cliff, looking far away, up into to the horizon, where small and gloom red sun slowly hiding after (sunset). The firebird is partially dead, almost the whole of her body covered/turned in cooled down/hardened plasma (the material that resembles rock/stone), and only a few spots are still slowly glowing with life: her eyes and some feathers on the wings and tail. Celestia sits near to her, her wigs lifelessly open, mane and tail lies on the ground and stood still as well. Her eyes and mind is empty, she blindly looks at the dying sun (if you could draw some red lights that reflects in her eyes - it will add some eerie feeling to the scene), like not believing yet, not understanding what’s happening, like she is not here at the moment. Did she noticed that Philomena passed away? Who knows, it is not something that bothers her at this moment. Her mind is empty and – at the same time -- full of random, scattered thoughts, which is like a pale ghosts slowly disappearing away behind the edges of Oblivion. All the things around is not of her concern anymore, she is somewhere deep inside her soul, slowly accepting the fate. Just like everything else in dying world – she will be next as well. And her soul dies along with Equestria because she is the Equestria itself, the heart of this world, the essence of its life. May be she will not die now, may be not tomorrow, but eventually she will pass away. Until that – this wasteland now is the prison of her loneliness." |

Philomena will reborn. But she will be much smaller and whitier. |

Wow, totally called it (and that is awesome). |

If Equiestria is Earth. Than this is not possible. Before Sun become that dull and dying it would become Red giant. Even before it would become red giant it would greatly increase its brightness and evaporate all oceans (no SEA cliff) and tear out atmosphere out of earth (Sky should be black). After that earth (Equestria) would be probably engulfed in the sun (Celestia). |

This is the way the world ends: not with a bang, or a whimper; but the slow, relentless grind of day and night that turns fire to ash and erodes the mind of a goddess down to nothing at all. |
| Xzaws #412310 11 months ago |
uh... and hardened plasma. JUST NO. |
| Xzaws #412317 11 months ago |
Who says that end for Celestia would be so soon? Sun would be transformed into white dwarf, so there is countless millenia ahead, on a cold dead planet. |

... If you have to over-analyze such an awesome piece of art, of a children's cartoon show about talking ponies at that, then you shouldn't even be here. The whole point completely escapes you...
tl;dr = IT'S MAGIC, BITCHES! |

@Anonymous :S Then she is gonna be VERY HEAVY. Do you think that Philomena somehow connected to the star? |

"...engulfed in the sun (Celestia)." Sounds like Fetish Fuel... |
| nyxabuse #412394 11 months ago |
I like to think that Celestia knows that this will be her eventual fate. She keeps making friends with mortal ponies (like Twilight), knowing that they will die and that it will hurt; but also knowing that the memories of their friendship will keep her warm even as the sun burns to nothing.
Even as she lies down on the cold rock that was formerly Equestria, she will never truly be alone: sans teeth, sans eyes, sans mind; the last thing she will feel will be all the friendship she has known, from a hundred thousand generations of ponies. And, eventually, she will fade away. |

In a world where pony rises the sun and the moon. The only one here who has issues with understanding what this picture says is you. Read what 412372 - you are the reason why we can't have a nice things. |

>implying a goddess such as her would let her star ever leave the main sequence stage

@412481 NO. Picture is nice by itself, description of the picture is not. Description is why we can't have a nice things. |

The guy speak with images, metaphors and forms. Expressions and feelings. Just like the show and its creators. You speak with cold breath of logic and science. It's solid, sharp and dead like an iceberg. This is what destroy the whole show's feeling when someone over-analyzing it. People like you are bad persons and should feel bad about that. |

I would like to believe one of the reasons Dr. Whooves is in Equestria is to prevent this particular future. |

And this is just the beginning.
As the sun dies, it will eventually swell to fill up the entire Earth sky. Possibly even swallow the planet. Equestria will burn... |
