Straight from the book........"Scrooge covers the spirit with the cap (which was made by the sins of man and had a beam of light coming out of the top) it carries and he is returned to his room, where he falls asleep. He also noticed that the light of the cap had never extinguished and this is a symbol because it is foreshadowing that Scrooge's light in him will never be extinguished (his hope will never die)."

It represents the "Aura" that surrounds Jesus, as it also is depicted around other "Saints" within the Christian religions, or Buddha in Buddhism, or Mohammed in Islam, or Shiva in Hinduism.
