'''Solarian''', sometimes written as '''solar non-binary person''',<ref name="coin"/> is a [[The Alibinary System|gender alignment]] term in the [[Galactian Alignment System|galactian alignment system]], referring to [[non-binary]] individuals whose [[gender]] is [[man]]-aligned and/or [[Masculinity|masculine]]-aligned.<ref name="coin"/><ref name="bha"/> A solarian is someone who has similarities in identity or experiences with men, in the same way some cultures consider the sun to possess masculine energy.<ref name="coin"/> 

It can also refer to someone who has a complicated but existing relationship with masculine genders/alignment.<ref name="bha" /> The term is meant to be a less easily abused form of "[[Miaspec|male-aligned]]."<ref name="coin" /><ref name="bha" /> Because there is no consistent definition of gender alignment, there is no consistent definition of solarian. Possible examples of solarian experiences include: 

* Someone who is partially a man.
* Someone has some connection to manhood, without being a man.<ref name="coin"/><ref name="bha"/>
* Someone who has a [[gender]] similar to, but not the same as a man.
* Someone whose gender is [[mingender|masculine in nature]]/connected to masculinity while not being a man.
* A [[non-binary]] person who presents masculinely (regardless of their actual gender).
* Someone who is connected to manhood through their experience with society. They may be treated as and/or have experiences similar to that of a man.<ref name="coin"/>

Some non-binary individuals may fit some of these experiences but not identify as solarian.

The [[Femininity|feminine]] equivalent is [[lunarian]]. The [[neutral]]/unaligned equivalent is [[stellarian]].<ref name="coin"/>

== Common Definitions ==
{{Quote|Solarian: In many cultures and religious systems, the sun is associated with masculinity, and male energy. As a result, a Solar Nonbinary Person, or Solarian, would be someone who has similarities in identity or experience with men. The term functions as a less easily abused form of “male aligned.”|verges|In or before 2016<ref name="coin">https://web.archive.org/web/20200720224831/https://kinda-girls.tumblr.com/post/153284340413/describing-alignment</ref>}}{{Quote|Solarian is the replacement for “masc-aligned”.
