Blessings received following this violent outburst? (6)
I believe the answer is:
sneeze
'outburst?' is the definition.
(a bursting out of air from the nose)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sneeze that I've seen before include "Explosion of air through nose and mouth" , "Minor bodily explosion" , "See Zen at the sign of a cold" , "Sudden, involuntary and noisy spasm" , "Nasal eruption due to head cold" .)
