The planet is orbited by a system of rings with several divisions, these rings play an important role in reflecting sunlight at the night side of the planet, keeping it from complete darkness.{{cite}} These rings have an unknown orbital inclination, as they are not centered at the equatorial region of Canticle and have a notable angle relative to the equatorial plane.{{cite}}
Canticle has a retrograde spin, thus the sun rises in the west and sets in the east.{{book ref|tsm|7}} Is radial velocity is notably slow, at around 28.1 meters per second, though a rotational period of 10 hours.{{book ref|tsm|19}}{{book ref|tsm|32}}
The geography of the planet constantly changes due to the stone melting from the intense heat produced in the atmosphere, and the radiation of its Invested core.{{cite}} This intense heat is produced by the atmosphere being unnaturally resistant to the flow of Investiture, causing it to produce large amounts of heat via [[wikipedia:Joule heating|joule heating]].{{cite}}
