Aries
For people who start things. A white page printed in obsidian and deep crimson on a scorched-crimson desk, like the first page of something new: the day in an arch with a small sun at its foot, a gold star for what's done, and a voice note that plays from a small shield, drawn as a row of suns. What you keep goes up as engraved posters: woodcut broadsides with the ram cut in a block, armillary spheres with the day's sun on its path and tarot cards in fine rays, and your photos stay whole.
Free while Haumm is in early access. After that, every journal has White and Night, the paid year adds three looks you choose, and more are a few dollars each, yours to keep. You can try any look on your own pages first.

and dark
Aries, dark
The same page scorched dark, for the night before something starts: warm white words, pale crimson for the date, and the arch, the stars and the shield in solar gold. The same ram and the same suns, and the same wall in Commonplace.
A page like the first page of something new.
(one page, in the app.)
A page in Aries, drawn by the Haumm app with a made-up journal, and what makes it Aries.
- 1
The day in an arch
The date in an arch: the weekday over the day, the month and year under it, Aries's sign at its top and a small plain sun at its foot. On a computer, the sign and a star start the title's rule.
- 2
Lists ruled in gold
Each list a white card ruled twice in solar gold, its mark a small shield.
- 3
A star for what's done
Done ticks turn into gold four-point stars, so a good week of habits fills with them.
- 4
A row of suns
A voice note plays from a small shield, and its own levels are drawn as a row of small suns, their rays as long as the note was loud.
What you keep, cut in the block.
(one wall for both.)
Keep a line, a photo or a voice note and it comes back as one of twelve engraved posters, printed in one or two inks on old paper: a tarot card, the day's sun and moon, an old magazine's cover, a fortune card's border (it tells the date, never a fortune), an engraving's plate, a sheet of stamps, a star card, a voice note's rays or clouds; and Aries's own, a woodcut broadside in black and red, an armillary sphere with the day's sun on its path, and a photo in a woodblock's border. Many show their day's sky, worked out from the date. Never a horoscope or a reading. Photos stay whole. Re-roll for another. With Posters off, each piece is a card ruled in gold.
Not just the page.
(every room, in Aries.)
This is the app itself, with a made-up journal. Click through the page, Commonplace and Bookmarks, light or dark, and flip the writing between serif and sans.
