Why Are Sunsets Beautiful?

Scientifically, the sun is low on the horizon, and sunlight passes through more air than during the day.   More molecules in the atmosphere scatter the violet and blue light from our eyes, which we find hard to see, thus what we see is a beautiful yellow, orange, and red sunset.

What Does The Sunset Symbolize?

Sunsets symbolize the end or completion of a day, completion of the days’ tasks, and show the passing of time. When the sun sets, it is a reminder by nature of the forces of good and evil.

What Do Sunsets In A Dream Mean?

Sunsets in a dream often signify a change or transformation in your life. This is not necessarily bad if you are going through hard times; it means good times are coming in your future. You are coming to a period of rest, and a new cycle will start with enlightenment.
