Thanks for your question.
Someone once said that nothing is more boring than to tell everything :-)
The use of the word “Light”—in both its verb and noun form—in Masonic ritual is indeed a large part of the the initiation and degree process. Without telling the Secrets of Freemasonry I can say that it has allegorical meanings only, and that those meanings will become apparent in your initiation into Freemasonry. Although I took an oath not to tell these secrets, most things Masonic can be “found” on the Internet. But I don’t think the true meaning can be understood outside a Masonic ceremony.
Thanks for your interest—and I hope you keep searching for light.
