The taiyō refers to the sun, which is the star at the center of our solar system. It provides light and heat to Earth.
Imagine the taiyō as a giant glowing ball in the sky that brightens up everything around it, just like how turning on a lamp lights up your room.
Tsuki (月): The moon, which orbits around Earth.
Hoshi (星): Stars, which are distant celestial objects similar to our sun.
