From hole stared out seeing skylight (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
fixed star
'seeing skylight' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'from hole stared' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'hole' could be 'fix' (synonyms) and 'fix' is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'stared' is 'edstar' which is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'out' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for fixed star that I've seen is " Heavenly body appearing not to move".)
