In Christianity, Lucifer refers to devil or "Satan." Lucifer was cast into hell because he acted against God's wishes and rebelled against Him. The name Lucifer means "morning star," or "the light bearer," with reference to his former beauty as the most gorgeous of angels, before God threw him to hell. Anything which tempts, lures, prompts a man to sin and causes contempt in the eyes of God is said to be an act of Satan. Lucifer thus is the embodiment of evil and everything wicked.
In literature, the planet Venus in its appearance resembling the morning star is also called as "Lucifer." A lighter comprising of a thin piece of wood tipped with inflammable material or chemical, which burns with friction, is also called as a "Lucifer." The term also stands for a rock group which formed in 1969 and disbanded two years later.
