Background Information

Name
The "three lights" refer to the sun, moon, and stars, the most clearly visible lights in the sky. It is from these lights that the fairies derive their power and after which they have been named. Many of their spell cards reflect how they derive their power. These three lights are also referred to in the name of work in which they appeared; The title of the manga, "Sangetsusei" (三月精) is a wordplay, which loosely means "sun, moon, stars" respectively based on pronunciation, whereas "三精/Sansei/Three Sprites" used to be the old name for these three heavenly bodies put together. san (三) can also mean san (サン, Katakana transliteration of English "sun"), getsu (月, "moon") stays the same and sei (精, "fairy") shares the same sound as sei (星, "star").[1]
