Astral/Umbral???

I don't like the whole astral/umbral concept. It feels limited and awkward, I wish they'd change into the more commonly seen elemental wheel.

Astral and Umbral is just light and dark, which consists of 3 Elements each, which are very much similar to FFXI's Light Skillchain properties (Thunder, Wind, Fire), and Darkness Skillchain (Water, Ice, Stone), if I'm not mistaken.

Well in the beginning of XIV, Umbral (essentially dark-based) and Astral (light-based) spells were pretty much all Thaumaturge had (the whole "power over life and death" thing). When they shuffled abilities, CNJ passed three elements to THM, and astral/umbral spells basically disappeared from the game. :< I miss them, and would like to see them back. ^^
