    The term "morning star" generally refers to the planet Venus when it appears in the east before sunrise. However, the term can be used to refer to any celestial body, especially a planet, that is prominent just before sunrise. It's called 'morning star' because of the bright, star-like appearance in the morning sky. It's important to note that the term 'morning star' is used more in a figurative sense since Venus is a planet, not a star.
