the heavens shone down favourably again Explanation: ...and he assured (the prospective student) that the Stanford Medical School was one of the world leaders, with more than a century of acquired prestige. Incredibly, that day the heavens shone down favourably again ( after a period of bad weather, high cloud cover, etc, ). (If you want a slightly more poetic turn of phrase) |

peer agreement (net): +1the sun came out at last/(again) Explanation: After reviewing your question a couple of times, I decided that your own approach was better. Even though the text says "de nuevo", it might be more emphatic to say 'at last' - it depends on the context and whether the sun was "out" earlier in the story. |

the light finally appeared at the end of the tunnel Explanation: Moving away from the sky metaphors (from those given I would personally choose "the clouds lifted"), and using the context you have given for a different metaphor with the same meaning. |
