"He's acheived orbit." "He's riding the rings."
Now everyone pat me on the back and tell me how clever I am!

In the story I am writing, the planet my protagonists encounter has Saturn-like rings and two large moons (as well as numerous ring shepherds). I was thinking that since the rings are so bright in the sky, they may be seen as a sort of purgatory, with the moons representing the afterlife. Some euphemisms I was thinking about include "[X], of the rings" for recently-deceased people (in lieu of the gaps inside the rings) and "[X], with the moons" for long-past, but I am wondering if it may be too on-the-nose of a saying.
