gryewaren:For @mythologicalnet‘s creation event → Latvian Mythology ↳ Auseklis (derived from root aus-, meaning "dawn") was a Latvian god, and the personification of the celestial body Venus. Auseklis is closely associated with Mēness (“moon”). They both are Dieva dēli (“sons of God”), and are thus confused with each other and with other male deities. Auseklis is the groom of Saules meita (“daughter of the sun”). -- source link
