Current was added unilaterally and while not bad feels somewhat abstract. Possible suggestions (amongst many other ones that can be better given how common this trope is) for replacement:
1.1:

Wait, are we sure that isn't too similar to MessianicArchetype.Video Games

Looks like that was added unilaterally, if 1.2 ends up being replacement can always pull or make a thread for replacement for MessianicArchetype.Video Games.

[tup] to Alina (1.1). Also the image should be potholed to Literature.The Grisha Trilogy and not Literature.The Grishaverse.

1.2's also good though (I'm guessing it was added in MessianicArchetype.Video Games because it's a popular meme).

Do we want to show the light doing an explicitly good thing? Like healing?

[up][up] Noted!
[up]I feel like light itself being good can work? The above is great too but I feel like there's overlap with Healing Light

Yeah, the Mercy photo looks the same as the one from MessianicArchetype.Video Games. We could suggest the other photo of that sub-page if we'd like, and use that photo from there.

I actually prefer the imagery of current, since the trope's very broad and the description explains its roots in sunlight/religion. The suggestions look more like specific subtropes.

[up] I feel the exact same. OP notes that the current "feels somewhat abstract", but I like it for that exact reason; being broad as possible ensures there's no overlap with extant subtropes, which most of the suggestions are too close to.

[up] & [up][up] are good points though on that note I like 12.4 for drawing on similar imagery but not being for a real world religion.

Current is strickingly simple yet existential,

Sounds like nonsense, but it's to say I'd keep it even with how strong 12.4 is

12.4 has three-day consensus. I’m not where I can put it on the page at the moment. Caption?

From some Lathenderites saying

"Offer prayers to Lathander, and his light will shield thee."

"In the dawn, beauty reigns, and the way is clearer."

"Does not our faith tell us that there is always a new beginning? Look for that new light, then, and be cheerful."
