Asayake (朝焼け)
[ ah-sah-yah-keh ] • noun
"The vibrant, hopeful colours of sunrise"
Asayake refers specifically to the morning glow—the time when the sky is painted in shades of red, orange, and pink just before the sun fully emerges. It symbolizes the arrival of warmth, the promise of a new beginning, and the fleeting beauty of the day’s first light.
