Lunarian is a gender alignment from the galactian system. In many cultures around the world, the moon is personified as female, or is associated with feminine energy, so lunarian is useful for non-binary individuals who are female or feminine-aligned.

Possible examples of lunarian experiences include:

Someone who is partially female.
Someone who has some sort of connection to girlhood/womanhood, regardless of actual gender.
Someone who has a gender similar to, but not the same as female.
Someone who is fingender or connected to femininity regardless of actual gender.
A non-binary individual who presents femininely (regardless of their actual gender).
Someone who connects with girlhood/womanhood through experiencing girl specific attraction. For example, a non-binary individual may be lunarian because they are a lesbian/feel attraction to other girls as a girl.
Someone connected to girlhood/womanhood through their experience with society. They may be treated as or have experiences similar to that of a woman.

The term is meant to be a less easily misused or manipulated form of "female-aligned." Since there is no consistent definition of gender alignment, there is no consistent definition of lunarian. Some non-binary individuals may fit some of these experiences but not identify as lunarian.

The masculine/miaspec equivalent is solarian. The neutral or unaligned equivalent is stellarian.

Subsets

Selenian: A subset of lunarian that describes a non-binary individual that who is female-aligned, but not necessarily feminine-aligned.
Artemian: A subset of lunarian that describes a non-binary individual that who is feminine-aligned, but not necessarily female-aligned.
