Epiphany

Epiphany refers to the moment of sudden revelation or insight, when a concept or situation becomes clear and significant. This term is often used in literature and psychology to describe a character’s realization or awakening. In a religious context, Epiphany is also associated with a feast day in Christianity that celebrates the revelation of Christ to the Gentiles, especially marked by the visit of the Magi (Wise Men) to the infant Jesus. This event is observed on January 6th and symbolizes the manifestation of Jesus to the wider world. In everyday usage, an epiphany can occur in various forms, including an enlightening discovery or a profound understanding that leads to a shift in perspective.
