ORIGINS AND ETYMOLOGY

Astro-English: in Astronese, the noun refulgence is based on the adjective refulgent which means “shining brightly”; in the context of Astronist soteriology, refulgence means to be dedicated to both one’s personal transcension (called astrosis) and the transcension of all humanity (sometimes called collective astrosis).
