According to the Cambridge dictionary, the day in the Christian religion as a that celebrates the revelation of the baby Jesus to the world, and the 3 Magi.
The term epiphany comes from a Greek word meaning “appearance,” “manifestation,” or “revelation” and is commonly linked in Western churches with the visit of the wise men (Magi) to the Christ child
In other words a Light.
Cambridge also defines epiphany as a moment when you suddenly feel you understand or suddenly become conscious of something very important.
