Interesting Facts about Princess Luna from My Little Pony

Princess Luna is a character featured in the 2010 series “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic”. In the first episode of the show, she appears first as a legend, and then as a villain named Nightmare Moon. However, she quickly is defeated and returned to her old, kind self. Luna is the younger sister of Princess Celestia and assists in the ruling of Equestria. She is responsible for raising the moon at night, while her sister brings the sun up during the day.

Did you know?

?
• There is a day dedicated to Nightmare Moon that is very similar to Halloween.
• “Luna” is the Italian and Spanish word for “Moon”.
• Her “Cutie Mark” is a moon, referencing her role in the kingdom.
• As the Princess of night time, she can appear in dreams and sometimes gives ponies advice.
• Princess Luna is one of the few Alicorns in the series.

Although she eventually is found to be a kind and helpful pony, Luna was originally turned into the evil Nightmare Moon by her bitterness. Luna was jealous that the ponies of Equestria celebrated and played when the sun came up, but “shunned” the night time by sleeping.
