PANGSINAN MYTH: The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars
In epochs gone by, a deity named Ama, sovereign and progenitor of all, sculpted humanity with hands bathed in divine grace. His celestial realm, elevated above, bestowed upon him an all-seeing gaze, encompassing the vast canvas of creation. Among his celestial kin, Agueo, the embodiment of sun and day, and Bulan, the radiant moon, stood as cherished favorites. Ama adorned each with a palace ablaze in celestial brilliance—Agueo's crafted from the golden hues of day, and Bulan's adorned in the shimmering silver of night.
Harmonizing with the benevolent yearnings of their celestial progenitor, Agueo and Bulan embarked daily, shoulder to shoulder, across the terrestrial expanse, generously showering luminance upon humankind. Agueo, with a temperament as solemn as twilight's gentle hush, exhibited unwavering obedience to his paternal guide. In contrast, Bulan, bedecked in playfulness and mischievous whims, reveled in the enchanting dance of moonlight.
One eve, as their celestial labor drew to a close, the divine siblings observed earthly thieves coveting the cover of night for their nefarious deeds. Bulan, a kindred spirit to the nocturnal rogues, implored Agueo to hasten their departure, shrouding the world in darkness. Yet, Agueo, resolute in his measured pace, declined to yield to urgency, sparking a celestial discord between the radiant brothers. Ama, the ever-watchful patriarch, witnessed the quarrel and, incensed by Bulan's playful transgressions, seized a colossal rock, hurtling it through the heavens. The rock collided with Bulan's celestial abode, fracturing into myriad fragments bathed in perpetual radiance—the very stars that now adorn the night sky as Bituen.
From that moment forth, Bulan was forbidden to join Agueo on their celestial odyssey. Instead, he was tasked with illuminating the nocturnal paths of thieves with his now-dimmed fiery palace—a cosmic penance for his playful transgressions.
