Significado
Things getting better or literal sun.
Contexto cultural
The sun determines the daily rhythm of milking, herding, and moving camp. 'Нар гарах' is the signal to start the day's labor. The sun (Etseg Nar - Father Sun) is a deity. Its emergence is seen as a spiritual blessing. Due to winter smog (smoke), 'нар гарах' is used when the wind blows the smog away and the blue sky is visible. The sun is a constant metaphor for the mother's love. A mother's presence is often described as 'нар гарах.'
Use it for People
If you want to compliment someone, tell them they are like the sun coming out. It's a very high compliment in Mongolia.
Past Tense is Key
When talking about your feelings, always use 'гарлаа' (past) rather than 'гарна' (future) unless you are expressing hope.

Blue Sky Connection
