SHINE ON

The theme can sometimes be a bit unclear, so I'll break it down to make it easier for you:

It evokes imagery of brilliance and clarity, often associated with celestial bodies or precious materials. Each term brings to mind a unique aspect of this enchanting luminosity, celebrating the beauty of light.
