What is "Venus's girdle"?
Venus's girdle is a term used to describe a bright pink or orange band seen in the sky during sunrise and sunset. It is named after Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty, symbolizing the enchanting colors of the dawn and dusk. This atmospheric phenomenon occurs due to the scattering of sunlight by particles in the atmosphere, creating a soft glow that can appear just above the horizon. Venus's girdle is often admired for its beauty and is associated with the transition between day and night, evoking a sense of wonder and tranquility in nature.
