    Not sure how the moon would work on a female character, from an eastern point of view. Traditionally the moon is personified as male. But that doesn't mean all that must in the grand scheme of things.
    This is false. The truth is that it's inconsistent. In japanese mythos, you're right, but chinese and korean is different. It's uncertain tbh but since Yotsuyu is being shown prominently in the teaser poster, it points to the primal being related to her. Also, we already had a unique primal battle (Susano), similar to Ravana from HW. I think the rest of the primal released from this expansion will be FF related. We haven't had more than 1 unique primal in HW, so unlikely to have another new unique primal, hence my Asura prediction.

    Yin is the negative/passive/female principle in nature, and may allude to many other concepts e.g. the moon, shaded orientation, something covert or concealed
    Yang is the positive/active/male principle in nature, and may allude to many other concepts e.g. the sun, open, overt, and "belonging to this world".

    Yuna was the moon to Tidus' sun, as reflected by their color schemes, personalities, and their respective celestial crests and sigils.

    Ravana and Susano aren't exactly exclusive to XIV.

    Susano as in Bravely Default/Second and FF Dimensions II.
    Ravana was a minor boss in Vagrant Story.

    Of which they are that entity in name only. The ravana and susano-o (not even the same name) from their respective games are completely different, as much as Shiva is completely different from the Hindu god, and bahamut isn't a planet sized turtle

    Susano is Susano-o. The probable reason it was changed is because the double O in English might of caused some issues. I don't know why, but yeah it was changed.

    I like helping people with their Job ideas, it's fun to help them visuallize and create the job they'd like to play most. Plus I make my own too, I'll post them eventually.

    Not really.
    Ravana was a four-armed statue that wielded swords...
    Susano-o has been a water-elemental, sword wielding summon...


    Pretty much the same things.
    At least as much as Bismarck was always a water elemental summon.
    Garuda was a lightning elemental enemy with a birds head.
    Ifrit was always more mammalian than reptilian.

    They're the same things as far as the FF series is concerned.
