Cutie Marks would be a big source of confusion for Bronies over the years. Put simply here's the facts as we've learned them (no spoilers): 1: A Cutie Mark appears when a pony discovers what he or she is best at doing or making. It's not their whole personality, just their unique special skill that makes them stand out in one role or another. 2: A Cutie Mark does not define what a pony does with their life. Rarity and Pinkie Pie are prime example of this. Pinke loves to host parties and make ponies smile, so her mark is a trio of balloons. But what she does for a living is baking and pastry making. Similarly Rarity designs dresses and is into fashion, but her cutie mark is a trio of diamonds symbolizing her desire to make beauty wherever she can. 3: A cutie mark only appears when a pony discovers their true talent. That 'ah-ha' moment when they realize what they are doing just 'feels right'. There's a bit more of course, but those are spoilers best saved for now.

yeah not a fan of heights and my pony is nothing special at all so he's a earth pony who's cutie mark is a blank flank (he's a guidance counselor) cutie marks at this point in the show for us was as well explained as pony names

YAY! More Pony! And some of the best of the season! So excited for you to get into more as things really get good, and then complete kick it into a new gear next season! So this time, we have the second of the Big Three "This is what made me a Brony" episodes of Season 1, along side Dragonshy, and one other yet to come. A large reason for that, aside from just being a great story, is just how damn catchy Winter Wrap Up is, it's been over a decade, and that song still lives rent free in every Brony's head. So,fun trivia about that song, well songs in general, it almost never existed. See, when going through the initial draft ideas for the series, the early thought was not to have these big, elaborate,all Ponies bursting into song musical numbers, that the only real musical bits would be from Pinkie randomly bursting into song.... but eventually they realized how great going full muscial could be.... that said there was great debate for years over if the non-Pinkie Pie sings are meant to be diagetic or not. If they were actually taking place, in 'verse or just something done for the viewer. Speaking of sings, you wanted covers? Well given your attitude about the season, check out Animated James' "Winter's F***ed Up" We get one other major fandom lore drop here, Ditzy Doo! Fan consensus is that the pegasus who went North to get the birds was in fact Best Pony Derpy, something that Lauren agreed with. It wasn't intended, but Lauren said if the fans wanted that Pony to be Derpy, she could be. This led to another split over, should her name be 'Derpy Hooves" or 'Ditzy Doo'? You can kind of track when a fan project was started by what route they take, Ditzy, Derpy,or both with Ditzy being her real name and Derpy something ponies call her, with both good or bad connotations depending on the context. Also in Best Pony lore,we see Dinky Hooves/Doo in this, the little light purple/pinkish unicorn filly we see dancing around in the song. The fanon has decreed that she is Derpy's daughter,and the Derpy is a wonderful, caring single mother who loves her little muffin so much.... and the Dinky/Derpy stuff is some of the most wholesome and heartwarming things the fandom has created! Okay wrap this up, other notes, Spike's "Your not mommy" has been used ever since as ammo for the "He does not view Twilight as his mom" crowd. Twilight got up so early to clean up Winter.. the snow hadn't even fallen yet. Using magic really was never the answer, it was just a need for better organization. And yes, Ilove the moral here and it showing good leadership and organization as something that really is a skill and something vital to large projects. Despite how so, so so many people in those roles suck at that part and just want the power of them..... but not Twilight! So yeah, one of the most beloved episodes of the show, and for damn good reason!

Then we have another major milestone, the creation of the Cutie Mark Crusaders... it is said that all over Equestria, insurance adjusters and disaster preparedness workers felt a cold chill run up their spine the moment those three met..... Those three fillies' journey is probably one of the best handled across the entirety of the show.. it's going to be wonderful seeing you experience it! So Drakin pretty well gave you a good overview of Cutie Marks.... the one thing to always keep in mind is that.... not even Ponies fully understand the mechanics behind Cutie Marks. They know the basics, and what they've seen... but nopony truly knows how or why Marks appear on a technical level. So whenever anypony says "this is what Cutie marks are/how they work" it's mostly just their interpretation of it, how they think it works. Not objective, 100% fact. So, commentary notes, technically, AJ doesn't own an orchard. Big Mac is the one whose name is on all the paperwork, at least according to the writers, and he handles most of the paperwork/legal end of the business, while AJ handles the day to day field work and the most of the dealing with other ponies. Asking 'Does she have a name'? Really? This is the Brony Fandom.... of course any being on screen more then a second has a name,a backstory, and at least a few fics about them! Trivia, so we get a few things from this ep, first, hints about the Mane 6's relative ages,with it being made pretty clear that AJ is at least a year or two older then RD, given them being last/first respectively to get Cutie Marks in their class. General consensus is that AJ and Fluttershy are the oldest,R and Pinkie the youngest, with Twi and Rarity somewhere in the middle... but all of them being fairly close in age, like no more then 2 or 3 years apart. We also get the first spoken line by Bon-Bon, the mare Applebloom tried to extort into buying apples, but who got the whole thing for free. This is notable because of all the common 'Background Ponies" she has the most voice lines.... and ye every single time she has a wildly different voice.... leading to many, many headcanons about why that is. We also firmly establish Berry Punch as the town drunk. The berry colored Pony who drinks right out of the punch bowl. Nite, this isn't just fanon, this is outright exactly what the show staff was going for, they intended for her to come off that way, and kept trying to push the edge of what S&P would let them get away with in terms of showing her being a drunk. But yeah, a landmark episode that brought up some of the most important characters in the show into focus. One of the things I most love about Cutie Marks and how the show used them is, they are very, very much their own, solid thing... but they also serve so well,and are used so perfectly with the CMC, as an allegory for growing up,coming of age, just, all the fear,and stress and worry a young kid in the verge of becoming a teenager have about the future... growing up to slow? Am I not as mature and grown up as I should be? What if I do it wrong? What if I never grow up? etc.... and it handles weaving things together with that through-line so very, very well.

I'd always held Rarity up an example of the "cutie marks don't define you" because of that. Her special talent, being the 3 gems, is that she's good at finding gems. She even has the ability to locate them through magic. But what she chooses to do with that isn't defined by the ability itself.
