Google describes a sundog as "bright, often colorful spots of light that appear on either side of the sun, often resembling extra suns or detached pieces of rainbow, with red closest to the sun and blue on the outside".
ArcticSundog is a nod to where I grew up and then I included sundog for a couple of reasons. I've always thought sundogs were beautiful but recently when I've thought fo them I've been reminded of masking. Something I've done extensively all my life. I think it's the idea that the false suns being visible can distract attention from the true sun.
The second reason is because some cultures view a sundog as a sign of hope and purpose. I thought including the reference might remind of why I joined the group. This might be helpful on tougher days when I'm feeling overwhelmed and hopeless.
