"Eclipsed"

"Eclipsed" generally refers to an astronomical event where one celestial body moves into the shadow of another, temporarily obscuring it. The most common types are solar and lunar eclipses. During a solar eclipse, the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking sunlight. In a lunar eclipse, the Earth positions itself between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon. Eclipses can also metaphorically describe situations where something notable is overshadowed or diminished in importance by another event or factor, highlighting the theme of one entity overshadowing another in various contexts.
