#Valacirca
And speaking of fanmade stuff, probably the most notable Tolkien thing I’ve done over the past five years was contribute some illustrations depicting the characters, settings, and scenes of Tolkien’s Middle Earth.

Here’re a few favorites:

You may not have noticed it (I certainly didn’t!) but Bilbo did in fact see the Valacirca constellation during his adventure with Thorin’s Company!

Gonna start telling people this is Valacirca, Sickle of the Valar, set in the northern sky by Varda as a challenge to Melkor

Me, watching Moana with my two year old when Maui's fishhook constellation appears in the sky: "Look, it's the Valacirca! It was put in the sky by Varda to foretell the fall of Melkor!"

Oh, my Ada! Yes, that is a perfect date of birth. The Valacirca is really wonderful🥹✨️
It would definitely makes sense if I would be born under the Valarcirca stars.

Hm. Let us see, then 🥺🤔 As one of the oldest Uruks, outliving Morgoth 's rule and doing so in freedom for so long, you represent a true challenge for Morgoth. The constellation Valacirca was for long read as a warrior defying Morgoth, that might suit you well...

'CAUSE THE THING IS.

LotR is not actually secondary world fantasy like what I complain about so often with language choices. It's a sort of pseudohistorical, long-forgotten past of EARTH.

The constellation called Valacirca ("Sickle of the Gods") is LITERALLY Ursa Major.
I have to re-read Lord of the Rings to really pay attention to the language Papa Tolkien used, because I'm at a point of feeling like "well, LOTR was supposed to be a translation so we could understand it, so just assume all fantasy novels do that!" is little more than a thought-terminating cliché.

Las estrellas no estaban dispersas al azar. Varda diseñó constelaciones con propósito: Menelmacar el Espadachín (Orión), 🗡️ Valacirca la Hoz de los Valar (Osa Mayor), señales de desafío contra Morgoth.

A Valacirca é um lembrete cósmico de que, mesmo na escuridão mais profunda, a derrota do Inimigo já está escrita nas estrelas.

Você sabia que a Ursa Maior tem um significado épico no universo de Tolkien? 🌌✨

Valacirca, "A Foice dos Valar", foi colocada nos céus por Varda como um desafio direto a Morgoth e um símbolo eterno de esperança para os Elfos.

A Elbereth Gilthoniel,
silivren penna míriel
o menel aglar elenath!
Na-chaered palan-díriel
o galadhremmin ennorath,
Fanuilos, le linnathon
nef aear, sí nef aearon!

Tráva byla po dešti svěží, bláto čvachtavé.
Po setmění jsem viděl jen Tiliona. Menelmacar ani Valacirca ještě nevyšly. #HikeToMordor

“And high in the north as a challenge to Melkor she set the crown of seven mighty stars to swing, Valacirca, the Sickle of the Valar and sign of doom.“ - The Silmarillion (2/2)

Little details that I loved in The Rings of Power season 1, episode 2: Looking up to the sky, Galadriel saw the Valacirca, a star constellation created by Varda as a challenge to Morgoth: (1/2)

Sabia que...

... que esse escudo que representa a Valinor (www.valinor.com.br) é a Valacirca? A "Foice dos Valar") foi colocada nos céus por Varda para iluminar o despertar dos Elfos e reunida por Varda entre as estrelas antigas. Eram sete estrelas situadas no norte como um desafio a Melkor.
