Epiphany is usually used to refer to the Christian feast twelve days after Christmas which celebrates the visit of the three wise men to the infant Jesus.
It can, however, mean any form of divine manifestation or sudden revelation; an illuminating realization or discovery, often resulting in a personal feeling of elation, awe, or wonder.
