strange clock issue

Have never sen this before



Control center icon is ok, but clock and date are dimmed.. This is not when clicked..


Any reason this may happen? and how to get it back to normal "white" ?


I tried fiddling with Clock options, hiding am/pm/hiding/showing date etc... but either worked.


Even tried "Relaunching" Finder.. and no go.. Using MacOS Ventura 13.4

You have "Do Not Disturb" enabled. In System Settings type "show focus" into the search field. Change "Focus" to "Show When Active" or "Always Show in Menu Bar". Otherwise the clock dims when Do Not Disturb is active.
