How is Aoife linked to the sun?

thanks for the ask!

aoife is linked to the stars, of which the sun is one, because of her... eldritch form, i guess? like how she appears normally isn't her only appearance, as well as through related symbolism.

her eldritch forms almost embodies a star (along with a bird, giving it something of an appearance similar to a phoenix, which brings with it a completely different kind of symbolism).

symbolically the sun has been associated with life, confidence, power and, obviously, light, amongst others, which are things aoife has or is or embodies. she embodies light because of her connection to the stars, she has confidence, she has a great degree of power (physical and social) and she's associated with life in that she's a mother and often takes care of others in order to ensure their survival.

she is also associated with burning, or death by burning, so not all of the links are positive.
