(ש"ע) האפלה; ערפול; חוסר בהירות; בערות

n. state of being obscure; darkening, dimming; befogging, making vague; lack of brightness, lack of clarity

(v. t.)
The act or operation of obscuring; the state of being obscured; as, the obscuration of the moon in an eclipse.
  

Obscuration A state of sleep or dormancy of greater or less extent, that prevails between two successive periods of activity on a globe of a planetary chain as the life-waves succeed one another in their serial rounds on such a chain.
"A globe when a Life-wave leaves it does not remain in obscuration or continuously dormant until the same Life-wave returns to it in the next Round. The Life-waves succeed each other in regular file, and each Life-wave as it enters a globe has its period of beginning, its efflorescence, and its decay, and then leaves the globe in obscuration so far as that particular Life-wave is concerned. But the globe within a relatively short time receives a succeeding Life-wave, which runs through its courses and leaves the globes again in obscuration so far as this last Life-wave is concerned, etc. It is obvious, therefore, that a period of obscuration on any globe of the Planetary Chain is much shorter than the term of a full Planetary Round" (OG 118).
Obscuration should not be confused with pralaya, dissolution or death; obscuration is rest or dormancy, analogous to sleep:
