Dreaming About Eclipse
What it means
An eclipse in a dream often marks a moment when something usually clear is briefly hidden — a sign to look at what has been overshadowed or temporarily out of view.
In more detail
Because an eclipse is light and shadow trading places, the dream can point to a turning point, a secret surfacing, or a part of yourself stepping out of the dark. It rarely lasts; its quiet message is that what is obscured now will become visible again.
