Auseklis

An auseklis star in the colors of the Latvian flag. Pins and flag tops featuring similar designs were widespread during the Singing Revolution.

Auseklis is a Latvian god, a stellar deity[1] that represents a celestial body, but possibly not the same as Venus (Rīta zvaigzne)[2] - the first "star" (how Latvians call it) to appear in the mornings on the east side of the sky. He is the third most popular deity in Latvian mythology after Saulė and Mēness, but is almost exclusively mentioned in folk songs.
