Morning Star
The planet Venus is usually regarded as the morning star. This planet is visible just before daybreak. Hence the morning star is used as a metaphor for the coming light of God, the light that dispels the darkness.

- In Revelation 22:16
the morning star is used as a metaphor for Christ. - In 2 Peter 1:19
