Verse 6

In that day the luminaries will dwindle (lit. congeal) and there will be a reduction of light on the earth (cf. Joel 3:15-17; Amos 5:18).

"The meaning is that the loss of light is explained by the congealing of the heavenly bodies, their ’thickening’ as it were to the point that they cannot shine [cf. Exodus 15:8; Job 10:10; Zephaniah 1:12]." [Note: Merrill, p. 351.]
