How the lore is framed
The apps use cultural material as symbolic public context for reflection. The wording is intentionally calm and non-prescriptive: it offers questions, not commands; meaning, not certainty.

Coming soon
The next pass expands culture coverage and adds simpler ways to bring the current daily reflection out of each app.
Island and Atlantic lineages
Planned additions include Caribbean island traditions such as Haitian and Puerto Rican cultural lenses, plus wider Islander perspectives where strong app-facing material is available.
Portuguese and Spanish pathways
Future research will look at Iberian, Lusophone, and Hispanic ancestral material, including Portuguese maritime calendar traditions, Spanish seasonal folk practices, and Latin American regional sky, sea, and sun lore.
Ask for today’s lore
Planned App Intents will let you ask for the current Lunar, Solar, or Tidal Lore reflection based on the culture selected inside the app.
