unclouding

Lifting of haze

Unclouding is the process of becoming clear or making something clear—removing what obscures.

The word applies literally to skies and figuratively to minds, judgment, or vision: an unclouding of her thoughts, the gradual unclouding of the morning.

It suggests a return to clarity after a period of confusion or obstruction.
