How do I make light pass through an object in Blender?
Materials in Blender can be set to be transparent, so that light can pass through any objects using the material. Transparency is controlled using an “alpha” channel, where each pixel has an additional value, range 0-1, in addition to its RGB color values.

What should the blend value be in a blender?
The Blend value can be between (0.0 to 1.0). The value is proportional and represents that amount of space that the inner cone should occupy inside the outer cone Size. The inner cone boundary line indicates the point at which light from the spot will start to blur/soften; before this point its light will mostly be full strength.
