omnilucent means all-illuminating; shedding light in every direction.
Why “omnilucent” is a great word
All-illuminating; shedding light in every direction. From the Latin prefix omni- ("all") and the adjective lucent, from Latin lucent-, lucens, present participle of lucēre ("to shine"), first attested in 1651. Unlike "translucent" (which merely diffuses what passes through it) or "luminous" (which glows from a specific surface), omnilucent implies a radiance that is both self-generated and unbounded. It is the glareless white of a snowfield at noon, when light seems to emanate from the air itself; the hollow brilliance of a photographer's softbox, banishing shadow so thoroughly that objects lose their dimension; or the silent moment when a thought becomes so lucid it seems to clarify the entire dim room around it. Omnilucent is light that erases the very concept of direction, a brief, impossible victory over the private dark.
