Geocentric where "Geo" means Earth and "centric" means at Centre.
It is the theory which said that the Earth was at the centre of the universe and all other heavenly objects like stars, the sun, other planets, etc. revolved around it.

Similarly, Heliocentric where "Heilo(s)" means the Sun in Latin and "Centric" means at the centre.
It is the theory which said that the Sun was at the centre of the universe and all other heavenly objects including the Earth revolved around it.

In fact, as we know, both of the theories have been proved wrong in case of universe.
But, the Heliocentric theory, as we are aware of, is true with respect to our Solar System, where sun is at the centre.
