A planet seen close to the Sun at dawn or dusk is sometimes called the Morning Star or Evening Star.

In the context of medieval weaponry, the Morning Star resembles a combination mace/spiked club. It could be either a foot soldier's or mounted soldier's weapon. In the simplest terms, it was a wooden-handled weapon (betweeen 2 and 4 feet long), with a metal end. This metal end was usually an iron cylinder, which had roughly a dozen or more 4-inch iron spikes protruding out perpendicular to the shaft, plus usually a long spike at the end (typically 6 inches in length). It is different from a mace, in that a mace's head was usually a forged ball or cylinder with metal studs or short (1-2 inch) flanges cast as a single piece (i.e. the flanges or studs were not added later). It differs from a spiked club in that the spiked club did not have the protective metal cylinder at the head end.

It is nautical and travel related and falls into the same group as compass, nautical star and swallow tattoos. it also has symbolic relevence to new life or a change or a great experience involving travel either physically or spiritually :)
