Romeo compares Juliet to the sun.

"But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? /

It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.

/Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,

/Who is already sick and pale with grief (Shakespeare)."

Juliet is compared to the bright, warm sun that will chase away the sick, pale creature who is the moon. The moon is very jealous of the sun.
