Orbs – Are they paranormal & what do colored orbs mean?

Orbs, have seen them behind the house, in the wagon trail, the coaches would come in to the house.  They're weird, it's like someone broke open a glow stick and it just moves like a wiffle ball throw.  Had them in pics but I dont play them up, I also take care of the local cemetery, see lots stuff but I dont play it up.  I respect their space.

Is there a specific way to tell the difference between orbs and dust?  A week or two ago I started snapping random pictures around my room because of a situation I've been having with my clocks. (digital camera)  I never caught anything.  Two nights ago, I decided to ask questions along with taking pictures.  Almost immediately I caught what looks like an orb.  I continued talking and taking pictures occasionally catching "orbs", some brighter than others.  When I would catch one, I would take a few pictures afterwards of the same location, from the same angle, to rule out lighting.  By this point the "orbs" had gotten smaller so I "asked" to make them bigger.  Almost immediatley I got a large one, just like the first along with another picture of a shower of orbs.  But, I never saw with my eyes the orbs until after the pictures were taken.  I don't know what to think.  Coincidence or real, honest-to-goodness paranormal orbs?  (I can't upload the pictures right now because this computer doesn't support my memory stick.)

Thanks,

Annie

Hi Annie.  In my experience, a lot of orb photos can be caused by man-made sources, such as light reflecting off the camera, dust on the lens, etc.  Not all orbs are paranormal—however, not all orbs are dust/reflection/man-made.  If you see orbs at a particular location (in person), and you can confirm this with EVP (or other evidence), then there's a good chance that what you're seeing on film could be paranormal.  My advice is to rule out man-made causes first, and then confirm with other evidence (EVP, video camera, EMF meter).  You may also find this article from Southwest Ghost Hunters helpful.

I have been capturing alot of orbs with my digital camera.  At first  it was only 1, now there seem to be dozens.  They are not in all photos but usually they seem to flock to me.  Most are white but I have caught a few blue ones and even 1 that seems white but has like a pulsating outter ring that's uasually like a rainbow.  I even caught one shooting out of the wall.  What does this mean and why would I be attracting them?  I also had a photo in which there appeared to be a hole straight through my head, you could see the wall on the other side.

Annie, I did the exact same as what you did and I don't know either.  When I take pictures, there would be orbs but I don't know if it is dust or orbs.

Hi.  I have seen mainly blueish purple orbs but I was lying in bed last night and my dining room totally lit up in red and I freaked out and turned the tv and light on.  I've never had that and don't know if it was an orb but it was extremely red and bright enough to scare me.  Can anyone tell me what it was, and I was by myself.  It seems more things happen when I am by myself but my dog starts growling every now and then and stares at the wall.  Thanks!  Tanelle

My daughter has been showing me pictures with orbs that have appeared at random in the photos…even when taken in a series of continuous snapped pictures.  One extremely interesting photo was one taken at Billy Bob's Night Club in Ft. Worth.

My daughter shot a photo of friends on the dance floor.  The area was cluttered with "orbs" of all different colors.  Such a photo does make one wonder.

Thanks,

Barry

Ive witnessed the orbs in blue fly around my living room and what confirmed that I wasn't just seeing things my cats eyes were following it around with me.  I've also seen a group of twinkling stars float around.  Neither of those two events put fear into me.  But I've witnessed shadows and a mist that really creeped me out.

Me and my girlfriend were lying in bed in darkness when we both witnessed a red light emerge from nowhere on the middle of the ceiling.  We immediately looked at each other and both freaked out!  Is this paranormal activity or scientificly explainable ???  Please help!

Looking at some photos of my son recently and noticed orbs all around him.  None of his freinds in any of the pictures had any.  Also the pictures were taken at different locations, different cameras, and different times.  They all seem to be around him.  Do you think this is paranormal activity?

Vanessa — Hard to say without looking at the photo and discounting all man-made evidence (film development problems, glare from the flash, reflections, etc). Orbs are often attracted to children and people in high emotional states.

Reece — If you can't find any man-made explanation for the red light (fire alarm light, reflection from outside) then you can always test your house for paranormal activity. 

Hi, I am a trance medium of many years.  On my photos and video footage there are always orbs.  I believe that the orbs are minds of the spirit.  I have a video of myself going to sit in a cabinet for trance.  As I walked to the cabinet, the orb followed me.  I went into trance and as I came out of trance, the orb left the cabinet, precise timing.  Upon opening my eyes, the spirit orb left.  This video footage was taken about eight years ago, I have no doubt that the orb is the mind of a discarnate spirit.

My daughter and boyfriend were in bed and saw an orb shape above the tv, then another appeared by the door.  This was with the naked eye and was very clear to see.  The one by the tv was going dim then bright again and moving very slowly up and down.  The other seemed to be staying still.  They got up and looked around to see if anything could be causing it and also checking out the curains to see if lights or car lights could be causing it.  It was not anything different from what is normally out there.  We have experienced quite a few things, for example things flying off the shelf, and hearing people calling us when noone is in the house.  Have had laughing waking me up, like someone was leaning over my head.  A couple of us has seen apparitions and it has really scared my daughter as she saw a lady leaning over her when she woke up and watched her run to me.  Is there anythng I can do, as sometimes it feels really uncomfortable here like something always watching you.

Recently I took a pic of my hubby.  I need someone to look at the pic.  I can see 4 orbs, one is amazing, almost like a face of a child or small animal.  Can someone please take a look?  I'll send the piccy.

Okay well when I was little, one night I woke up for no reason.  It was around 2 in the morning if I remember right and all of a sudden I see this red ball of energy…it's hard to explain.  I guess you'd call it an orb, but it just floats there.  So anyways, it was floating up the stairs and slowly made its way into my mother's room.  I was soo freaked out I started crying, haha.  But I never mentioned it because I thought I was just crazy or something.

What does it mean when you see a Red orb fly behind a person from the ceiling to the floor?

Hi, I am a Reiki Master Teacher and a psychic in Indonesia.  Here I wish to share my experience with Orbs and Ghosts.  Orbs are spirit in its real form, and it can help or bother people.  With active third eye, we can see the orbs, if they exist.  It's actually not a perfect circle, but a little bit elliptical with some color, such as green, grey, white, etc (as I myself experienced to see them).  The real ghost in form of animal and human like also exist in this world with parallel dimension of ours, but often different backgrounds, for instance we are in the office room while "they" are in the "forest".  Ghosts are available not just at night.  Some I can see with naked eyes, some by my hearing (the latter occur in the form of soldier walking steps accompanying me after I finished praying at one funeral of a Dutch general in Bogor).

Ok, so the other night my friends and I were taking pictures right after one another at a party and then we went back through and looked and them.  In one picture, there are at least 10 white orbs just surrounding us and a very dark gray one above my head.  A similar thing happened on their graduation night.  They had been taking pictures of a friend of our's mom who has passed away, and she had all these dark orbs around her.  In one, it looked like there was a face and someone screaming.  Can someone please help me figure this out please?

I am basically a tomboy and grew up with four older brothers.  So I did whatever they did.  Well my story is this…we went to the Carlsbad Caverns and it really was something my husband and I wanted to do.  We are into nature and outdoor things.  When we entered this cavern which is 750 ft. below the top, I was not comfortable in the beginning.  The whole hike is a 2.5 mile walk down into this cave.   On our walk, we took pictures.  In a lot of the pictures, there are orbs which I believe is probably dust.  But when we downloaded these pictures to the computer from my chip, if you are looking at the pictures that my husband took of me, there is a red orb over me.  None of the pictures of my husband have them.  Both pictures are in different areas in the cave as we walked.  We would find a spot and I would take a picture of him.  Then he would take a picture of me.  Then walk more, and do it again.  What do you think?  It is strange.  Do you want to see the pictures? 

I see my recently departed Mum as a mauve to purple orb.  This has occurred about seven times or so at work outside and at home outside.  She loved the Garden and I work at a Botanic Garden, so maybe that is why she stays outside.  Sometimes the orb is the size of a tennis ball, and is a mauve colour.  Sometimes it is purple, and the size of a golf ball.  Mauve was Mum's colour in life and I like purple.  My son also saw her once on the front verandah at home.  Yesterday she appeared as if in protection when a guy on the street was approaching who was drug-affected.  We were extremely close, and there has been much heart-ache for me this year in many facets, so I feel she is around to give me moral support.  Sounds weird but I even saw a figure of her foot on the wall at home.  I think she wants to tell me, "That I will never walk alone."  I would like her to be at rest, but also I selfishly enjoy her company.  Regards, Julie.

This might seem really weird and this is why I rushed on the net to see what it means.  I understand that you only see orbs like on camera, but I've just followed a red orb shaped thing going diagonally down in front of my wall in the bedroom.  Then when I logged on here I seen it again in a different place—perimeter of about a centimeter, sort of like a faint laser pen, but erm well it wasn't. LOL.  Weirdly, I had a dream about being chased by death in the form of a young girl last night…erm not really into things like this, but thought I'd add a message anyway – any things have long left.

You say orbs are caught on camera due to dust and etc. explain why I have them in every picture no matter where I go.. I even caught a orb showing a face in it and picture of an angel ( we believe it to be ).  How can you explain this?

Before my fiance passed away…we were sitting on our couch and a ring-like black orb was floating inches away from our faces.  He pointed it out first and I didn't actually believe him until it floated close to my face..backed off…then floated up and floated closer to his face…then backed up…went up and down…side to side…lol for a whole like 5 mins…as we just sat there in shock…could that really have been a ghost?  If so, why a black orb?

I took this photo of a holy church on the peak of a mountain I climbed.  As I zoomed into the photo, I noticed a bright green dot of light above the statue of St. Patrick, and in other photos of the same day in that church the green light had moved to the top and the left hand side of the picture.  So it appeared in 3 different places, but only visible when I zoom in, as it's so small and bright.  Does anyone know what this light could be and what green would be?

For the past 3 days, I was seeing orbs and I was scared slightly in case they could harm me.  I spoke to a friend who said they're just fragments of soul who were so in their routine or upset that they hang around.  I made them go away by saying outloud "Go away I can't help you!"……that made quite the young ladies voice I could hear saying, "Can you help me, can you help me, can you help me ?"  I am going to try and help when I'm feeling braver.  I believe colours represent the feeling they left there, either anger, sadness or determination, happiness and love!

Interesting.  You will be supprised to know that "orbs" are actually spirits (angels.)  Different orbs mean different things, they are usually used as little "space crafts" as you may call them, to take thousands of spirits to heaven.  The "orbs" also contain many loving angels to help the spirits on their way to a new dimension.  Pretty unbelieavable stuff, ey!  But it is 100% true.  They are not here to cause evil, but to help guide spirits on their way to the bright, shining world above us.

Cheers!

I was just wondering if anyone has ever seen the following colored orbs before.  Both my mom and I have seen Blue, Green most recently, and then of course red.  Keep seeing stuff on here about red.   But my mom has been seeing green in her home.  Any thoughts?

My grandson who was only 4 just recently passed away due to complications from Leukemia.  Needless to say his parents, his papa and I are devastated over our loss of this bright and wonderful child.  While here in his earthly form, he was a very happy and loving child.  Here is my story and if I'm crazy just please let me down gently.  On Sunday, we went to NYC to release balloons in Aedyn's honor at the Statue of Liberty on the one month anniversary of his freedom from cancer.  We had a couple of instances that really stand out, but I want to talk about orbs.  My husband and I have a Sony digital camera and our kids (Aedyn's parents) have a Kodak digital camera.  Now mind you we were all together the whole time and taking pictures of pretty much the same things.

There was a slight drizzle in the air and at first I contributed what we saw to rain drops.  I know quit rambling and get to it.   There are NO orbs on any of the pictures that my husband and I took.  However, after we released the balloons and got back to Manhattan, the kids started taking pictures of buildings….(only because Aedyn was a fan of Spiderman and always wanted to go to New York where Spiderman was) so they were taking pictures of buildings and talking about how they could just see Aedyn swinging from his web from building to building.  The majority of the orbs caught on camera are either white or transparent with a ring of reddish/orange aura.  If anyone is interested, I can email pics to them to look them over.  Three pictures in particular were taken at 3 different angles and the orb remained in the same location on the building but different areas on the picture if you know what I mean.  Does anyone else think this could be our grandson, or possibly an angel sent down to watch over his parents and his younger brother?

I find the best theory is a decent combination of the most logical theories.  Light waves emitted or reflected might be caused by emotion or energy of some kind.  People are often so hesitant to simply state the obvious.  Take science and religion, they are both one and the same, just a guess based on our measurements that we have created.  Still no one will just say it.  Also, (before i get sidetracked) if you catch something on camera, or see it whiz by you in a dark hallway, if it's not normal or can't be explained, then it's paranormal.  I am only guessing though, no way to be certain. ;)

Hi, I was looking at a pic of me and there was a pink orb.  What does a pink one mean?

Hi, I was sitting on my son's bed today, and above the wardrobe on the wall was a multi coloured ring of colour.  Can you please tell me what this is?  Thank you.

Hi There.  My name is Samantha, I'm writing today as I would like for you to try and explain something for me.  I have recently moved into a new house with my 2 daughters and we have noticed things happening in our home.  Nothing bad, just things moving and doors opening.  We have even heard things crashing, yet when I check, they are still in same place.  I have been telling my friends and family about this, and since then, I have been noticing a blue orb a lot along with white orbs.  So I was hoping you could tell me if these orbs are good energy or not please.

Kind regards,
Samantha Sharman

Hi, I have a couple of pictures that I took and I was wondering of someone could look at them and tell me if they think I got something.

Thanks,
Megan

Me N' my friend took a picture on my trampoline.  There were many MANY white orbs all over the picture and one weird lookin' red one … we were really confused and we wondered what the red orb may have meant.  We asked my friend what it could have meant and they told us that it could have been really bad so we got pretty freaked out N' went back inside.

Hi. Last night, I was watching a movie about pope john paul the 2nd and his life and death.  It made me a bit emotional—I saw a blue orb cross in front of the t.v.  I've never seen anything like this before or didn't even know if I believed in them (photographs)..I can't seem to find much info about seing them in person and was wondering if u knew anything about this??

Will you be able to tell me how the orb is in my picture and why they are here?  Please get back to me on this.  I am really curious to know the truth behind it. Thanks.  x

I am curious about an orb I caught on video in between this 2008 Christmas and New Years.  The orb was caught on tape and it hovered on my spouse's side of the bed for awhile….it appeared to have a black backing attached to the brightness of the orb.  It made me double take what I was seeing, it was strange looking watching it on film….then it flew over to my side of the bed and bee lined it straight to the camera.  It looked like it ballooned up, and then disappeared….it was amazing.

Ohh I forgot to mention it made no noise….that is the strange part, you would think you would hear something.

The leading theory in paranormal community is that orbs are ghosts or other spirit entities in their simplest form. They naturally take up the shape of an orb, rather than always be in humanoid shape, which may cost them more energy to maintain. Another theory is that orbs are energy that is associated with the presence of certain entities but are not the entities themselves. But what is the evidence to back up such an extraordinary claim? In fact, many natural phenomena can be mistaken as orbs, and since it is virtually impossible to tell apart a real orb and a false positive with 100% accuracy. I've been a Paranormal Investigator for years and have taken several courses in Photography and do not consider orbs as valid evidence in favor of paranormal phenomena.

I believe orbs are nothing more then light reflection from air-born dust particles and or moisture directly in front of the camera lenses when the flash is used. There is a distance known as the focal point of the camera, of which objects need to be past in order to be in focus. Hence dust particles that are beyond the focal points do not cause any trouble, but those nearer to the lenses will be out of focus and often show up as orbs when they reflect the camera flash. The same principle applies to night vision or night shot cameras, in which the Infrared light illuminated the dust particles and make them look like orbs. Dust orbs have certain characteristics, such as possessing some sort of nucleus, and elongation around the central axis towards the edges of the photos. The latter is caused by a lens curvature error known as "coma". Cameras with very small lenses and short focal lengths (such as digital cameras) are more prone to coma than other cameras with longer focal length lenses, such as SLR cameras.

Dust orbs are more likely to show up in a large number when you disturb the environment, such as when you just step into an empty house. This explains why the first few photos usually contain more orbs. Also, digital cameras are more sensitive and therefore more likely to capture illuminated dust particles than a film camera.

Other Contaminants

By contaminants, we mean things that may contaminate the data that we collect during paranormal investigations. Besides dust particles, the most common contaminants are pollen, air moisture, water droplets, and snow. Different cameras will create different kind of orbs when these contaminants are presented. Therefore, by taking control shots with your camera, you will know how these contaminants look like in your photos, and not confuse them with paranormal images. Also avoid taking photos when it is raining, snowing, or when the air is very moist for obvious reason.

One thing to notice is that rain or water droplets may cause what we term “comet orbs” where the orbs seem to be traveling upwards instead of downwards. Another source of false positive orbs is light reflection in the camera lenses. Many beginners in paranormal research are likely to mistaken light reflection as orbs. Light sources such as spot light creates internal reflection in the camera lenses which produce the orb effects. This is the reason why orbs photos in a concert hall or any well illuminated places should not be considered as paranormal in origin. Sun light causes similar phenomena often called a lens flare, but can easily avoided by not taking photos facing the sun or other light sources. In a concert hall or other artificially illuminated areas, however, there are multiple light sources and therefore it is more difficult to take precaution to avoid false positive results.

Spider web is also something to look out for while taking photos. A spider silk near the lens will reflect the flash and look like a streak of light that some people mistaken as orb in motion. Of course, even your own hair in front of the lens will create similar effect!

May 16 2009  Hello, do you have an email addi that I could send you 3 photos I have of orbs, and a rather interesting one taken in New Orleans many years ago?  Thank you, Deb

Hi, I just recently saw a red orb in the hospitial while my sister was having a two hour test done. I have seen small dim obs & then something was trying to materialize from the floor it got bigger & brighter & I said Oh out of excitement. It dissappeared. I have seen what looked to be 50 to 100 of bright orbs in a location where there use to be a house. I also seen a big bright orb come from a car in front of me while going to work one early morn.  It came out of the passenger window & went up & over the top of the car & across the highway. & today which is May 20,2009 I saw the red orb outside. I have a picture with a ghost, unexplainable in a window but I haven't seen orbs in my pictures. Only with my own eyes. Does the red really represent anger, or does it need a healing?

Hi, A couple of days ago we went to the house that my aunt barely moved in to. My cousin,sister and I were taking pictures for fun when we saw an orb behind my sister.  We got interested so started taking a LOT more. I took a picture against the wall and without moving my camera I took it again but in the next picture it was moved up a couple of inches. We also took pictures with my cell phone and my aunt's digital camera and they came out. Also my aunt got her digital camera and started taking pictures too, and she took a picture of an orb that kind of looked like a skull.

Hi, I just found out that a green orb represents healing/fertility. I have a cousin who says she sees a green light all over her body. She has been having continuous dreams about a man she knew (but not well enough to talk to him) who passed away several years ago. For the past week, he was taking her to places in her dreams and it would continue the next night. Just recently a young man has commited suicide and she says that he comes to her house at a certain time at night and asks if he could stay. This man used to live there before. When this young man died, he was having troubles of having a place to stay. I just want to know if anyone knows why my cousin sees a green light all over her body, and why these spirits are bothering her.

I just came from my friend's house, and the other day and tonight we took some more pictures. And saw some orbs—more so the other night than tonight. But one was red. And since a kid, I have sensed when ghosts are around, their emotions and all!  And when we were taking pictures tonight I sensed alot of anger and danger! In fact, told to get out of the room immediately. So, the other night's picture when I was sensing anger it was red. Well had red in it with more white I think.  I have seen orbs before with my own eyes at another house that used to be mine. But that's a whole other experience!

I've gone through a lot at different houses. But that one I've never seen before. It had been scaring me when I would go outside. But the part I'm trying to figure out is, its high up like at the roof of the house near it. And it had a very very scary face in it when we zoomed in on it!! When it has a face in it, as well as being pretty far up in the air, what does that mean? The face and high up. Why is it different colors?  The anger could be it—that's what I was sensing with the redish color orb! My friend is having very bad experiences there and it's messing with her and her daughter, not her other kids. A lot is going on! So I was going to try to see who I can get out there to help her. I was going to try to contact paranormal state and see if they'll help. Thought I'd add a coment on here about red orbs, as well as ask. Thanks!

I was sitting in the doctors office on a Monday morning. My husband had to do a stress test. As I was sitting there with him I saw this black light with a white end float across the room. What in the heck was that?

Reece if your house was old, maybe it was a stressed out soul coming home from work or it was one of your family members trying to make contact.

Hey Jennifer, I looked it up and figured the black light with white end. That is when a shadow is turning into an apparition and that is a rare sight because on night I was at camp and I woke up to a noise in the hall and the exact same thing appeared, but it flashed and it was mist.

I am just getting into ghost hunting and would love to see your pic. I have red orbs in pics and am concerned that is why I was looking on this sight. Feel free to send me any pics :) Thanks, Lori

This past 4th of July, my friends, boyfriend, as well as myself were all very close to my mother, who in october of 2007 passed on. We all felt a very "weird" sensation the whole night, but didn't notice anything until we started taking pictures. The 4th of July in my family, was a very important holiday. We used this time to have family reunions and catch up with old family and friends. It was always a happy time, and we all looked forward to the 4th of July throughout the year. ANYWAY…my boyfriend and I had taken several pictures through out the day. Nothing was ever wrong with the pictures, and our cameraa worked perfectly all day. BUT, when we started feeling weird, like sensing my mother was there, things started happening. My mother loved a particular type of firework, and a friend of mine baught one in her honer. I was all set up to video tape it, but my camera froze for no reason, and would NOT work. However, after the firework was finished, my camera worked fine….for a while anyways. About 30 minutes later, I went to take a picture of my friends, and it wouldn't take the picture. Until I turned the camera facing me, and then it quickly flashed in my face, taking a partial picture.

I know this sounds funny, however, it really freaked me out. And after we got home, and examined the pictures we took more closely, we founf that 80% of our pictures had Orbs, faces, demons, and etc in the middle of them. Needless to say, I am still shaken from it. I still feel her presence near me…but not nearly as strong as last night, the 4th of July. I have several pictures…over 200 pics were taken in all…about 130 of them have some sort of face and what-nots in them. But the difference is, the ones taken during the day were fine…the ones that were compromised were taken at night.

My personal theory of orbs in a few aspects goes along with many others. I beleive it is a reflection of their death, or something a spirit may be guarding and their attitude towards that place or object. But my theory is a closer link between life and death. People have auras, as do objects, however I think there may be a link between a person's aura throughout their life that coincides with the orb they reflect. I once was able to see people's auras, yet I've always been able to detect a spirit's presence. That is why I believe there is a link between the two.

I have had a large red orb appear infront of me and my children just recently. It was completely solid and about 10" in diameter. It hovered for about 20 to 30 secs then disappeared. It was a truly amazing sight to see. Then my son was in his room last night [he is only 8] and he came running through after seeing a pink and yellow orb. I am finding all this orb activity fascinating to say the least. I have contacted Dianne Cooper who says that this is the Arch Angel Metratron [not sure of spelling] this particular archangel is closely connected to children. I personally thought that it was my late grandmother so I guess I will just have to wait and see what else happens. If anyone has any views please e-mail me at lindamhendry@aol.com Thanks!

This is a pic from Rosslyn Chapel in Midlothian, of a pink object, it's not in any of the other 20 or so pics taken that day.[IMG]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii282/calamity2008/rosslyn20chapel20067-1.jpg[/IMG]

I spent five years in the Chicago, IL area and have photographed its cemeteries and churches and odd places extensively, but I never once caught an orb. Then, I did a late-night tour of the Lemp mansion in St. Louis, proportedly one of the most haunted houses in America. Result? Orbs all over the place, and the tourists around me were getting them too. So… my question is, why don't I get false 'readings' periodically over time. Why was it that all the orb photographs came from that house?

I have experienced orbs before, and I'm not sure what they mean. My grandfather passed away recently and when I was visiting my grandmother. I took lots of pictures and in almost all the pictures there is a bunch of "orbs." Very interesting. I have also experienced goosebumps on my arm but only in one area and it looks like someone brushed against me with their finger. It feels like electicity. Again I find this very interesting.

I have recently been taking pictures around my home and came across a weird one that I took of my partner, while she was decorating my house. I just thought I would take a picture of her and after I took it, a rainbow appeared across the picture. Also there was a fairly large orb at her feet. I would love to know what this means as I am interested in this kind of thing and for the past few years I have had many strange things happen around my home. much thanks xx

I have the gift and see orbs in my house and am trying to ascertain who they are. The orbs that come to me are mainly situated in my bedroom and when I switch the light on, they appear and then when the light is off they travel towards me, like a yellow colour with a red outline and a bit of green and sometimes follow me around the house. There are about 4 of them. I know my granny is with me, but I have the feeling there is someone else trying to connect to me who I don't know as the light keeps flickering when I ask it questions.

My dog was barking at something down the hallway at 4:00 a.m. I grabed my camera next to my bed and started shooting pictures in the dark. my camera is equiped with infrared. When I examined the photo's, there were multiple orbs, some in color and various sizes. I have been doing research on them and still, their is nothing concrete. Can someone explain to me what these light's might be? Thank you.

I have had a similar experience like yours. I am getting lots of white orbs in my backyard, and getting blue orbs in my house. I have a picture of a blue orb in my eye and 2 blue orbs on my head. There are numerous white orbs in my swimming pool, the wooded area behind my home, around my shed and in my backyard. Have You been able to find out anything about your orbs, I hope You can help me shed some light on mine. Oh yeah, also a couple of the orbs in my pool are pictures of skulls, it's a skull orb?

Mayra
I would love to see your pictures, I have skull photos also. Have You been able to find out any information about your pictures? My skulls pics appear in my swimming pool in my backyard.

My mom slept over my grandma's house on Saturday. She said that about 50 tiny orbs appeared in her room bright enough to light up the room. She said she was scared because they swirled around her. They lasted about 3 seconds and visited twice that night. Is there anything I can tell her to calm her down? She wants to know if this is cry for help from beyond. Any help please. Thank you.

a few nights ago my wife was saying there people outside trying to get in the house. i looked out all the windows didnt see nothing she took pic around the house on her cell phone i started going thru them and zoomed on them i saw a a man with black hair a crazy looking face that didnt look human in the closet and other faces around the house. The next day i get home she told me she had to beg for her life or they were going to hurt the kids and me i told her she was crazy. that night i started taking pic in our room and saw faces on the tv and it was off and the mirror in our room and we where nowhere near it when i took the pic on my phone i saw a black shadow scary face and set of red eyes it scared the crap out of me i took more pic and you see red eyes in a few of the pic and evil faces in every room of the house my wife freaked out and tried to kill her self she never done any thing like that before. i dont know if its the spirits in the house. whatever there havent gone back in the house since that day hoping somebody can guide me in the right way to get these things out of my house but plan on moving out at the beginning of the new year. hope this doesnt happen to anybody else. it's a scary feeling and believe in the paranormal. if somebody can help me on this please email me back @ d2.power@yahoocom thankyou for whoever can help me out on this situation. god bless

Never seen a ghost or any orbs in pics over the years, but a few years back an amber colored orb appeared over my clost door. It even had the protoplasm stuff inside and was translucent and lighter amber colored in the middle. It hovered there a few seconds, I glanced away and I've never seen it since. I can't figure out what it was, and why it was there.

We had a boxer that was dying from bone cancer. He was more than a dog, he was a little man. Anyways, we had the tumor removed and in every recovery pic and pic from that point on, there is a large orb on him, or above him, some where near him…. Every picture. Call it dust, I call it his angel.

Well I am not sure about orbs and what causes them.. I was married for 35 years and my husband pased away Jan 5, 2009. Up until that time we never had orbs or white spots in any of our pictures and seriously we probaly have millions of photos with different cameras. Since his death, the white spots are in almost every picture and with different cameras. After I had surgery in the middle of the night I was lying in bed facing the wall and I was awakened and seen a very pretty pink circle floating back and forth like a watchman on lookout. I rubbed my eyes and looked again 3 times, but it kept floating back and forth. Then two months later again asleep and awakened to see a light red circle, it to was moving back nd forth like a watchman. Do you have any ideas on my circles?
Thanks

In my opinion, orbs are the most common way that ghost are witnessed. When you have orbs around you in pictures, it is more than likely someone that has past and is watching over you. My uncle past when I was very young. I don't even think my cousin was old enough to remember him, but he was in every single picture at my cousins wedding as a white orb. I have only seen white orbs until recently. I took many pictures at the St. Augustine lighthouse in Florida and have a red orb in one of them. I would like to know if color has any meaning or is it like an aura. Maybe the color changes with the mood of the spirit?

I have seen a yellow orb and a blue orb as well, what does that mean ?

Can anyone tell me what unexplained red dots are that appear in photos? I was taking pictures in a 1800's cemetary one night and I caught several red dots in the pics later upon reviewing. Any answers?

I saw an orb 3minutes 13seconds on the left hand side of this video on youtube, An orb appears then just dissapears into jessica. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K2bdic6lHE This lady is very gifted and has her eyes wide open, Wish their was more like her.

i was with my girlfriend walking one of her friends home. i said be careful she said ok. but a cat followed her all the way home…and as we were walking my girlfriend ( she can see ghost) got in a daze and said she was gonna see her grandmom come out of this red light at a school. i was like cmon babe lets go.. she said no and walked to it. now i hear that symbolizes death. idk this is not a joke if anyone thinks im kidding if any one has answers post back. but when i got home. i had like a flash back of everything that happened but… i saw her grandmom… i didnt see her when we were walking… but it was just like how she told me she saw her

What does it mean when you see one silver and one gold ribbons in a photo anyone know?
email me brylo55@yahoo.com I will provide a photo if you wanna see.

I was taking photos of my hair the other day in the bathroom, and in one photo, behind me is a freaky black shadow. It looks like a blurred figure of a face with a black cape. I am kind of freaking out and i dont know whether its just a weird thing from the camera or a spirit. I'd appreciate it if someone could help me please.

Me and my brother were trying to unlock the door at our dads shop and the door was being a little difficult to open so I started to shake the door and wiggle my key back and forth making a little noise when we noticed a vibrant glowing blue orb staring us in the face. We stopped looked at each other and we asked ourselves "did you see that? Ya did you? Ya" so we decided to not stay and we left. Now I've always have known that the shop complex has been "haunted" cause we could be working late and the shop next door would all of the sudden have air tools and other automotive tools going off with nobody being there.  Kinda creepy at midnight.

I believe in ghosts because when i was a kid strange and paranormal things used to happen to me and my sisters. we used to stay at my aunts house and every time we walked the long hallway i felt a presence watching me so i stayed in the bathroom till someone knocked on the door. one day my sister karen stayed in the house with her grandmother and she was siting in the room by herself reading.  the picture fell off the wall and the lights turned out. she wwent in another room, and the some thing happened. then she heard a loud banging noise. she thought someone was working outside. there was no one in sight…she went back in the house.

the noises started, they were coming from within the house. then the dogs fur stood up on his back and he started growling. then my sister and grandmother grabbed some palms and started praying..after that mom my and aunt came back. karen told her about the frightning expreience they had. they did not believe them..then my grandmother saw a ghost walk through the wall. They did not believe her, they thought she was crazy…when we grew up we still had paranormal stuff happen to us…one night when me and my other sister charlene were siting on the sofa watching a movie, all of a sudden, the sofa shook and i could see the water glasses shaking with ripples in the glass, and a strong colonge smell would be in the place. we ran and got our other sister, she came up and we told her. it was like nothing happened, very weird.

I have experienced the same thing. I was in a bed and breakfast (built in 1885) with my husband. We where celebrating our 10th Anniversary. I felt somthing touch my nose and jumped up to see an orange orb in front of me. I was startled and couldnt speak. The orange orb dissapeared very quickly. I think maybe it didnt like my snoring. I know this sounds funny but my husband says I snore very loudly. This thing touched my nose very lightly and then it was gone. This memory will always stay with me, its been 14 months and I can still remember it like it was yesterday.  Anyone have any answers for me?

My daughter and I were driving around about 3:00a.m. We were in a wooded area and were slowing down because we were approaching a traffic light. A green orb, about the size of a baseball, floated in a gentle up and down motion from one side of the road went in front of our car and went into the woods on the other side of the road. We both saw it plain as day.

In the past month I have seen tiny orbs above my bed at night, they look like faraway twinkling stars or fireflies. White in color mostly. When they come I am overcome with a calmness and feeling of well being. Now I don't see them every night but maybe half a dozen times or so. I have started a log and have noticed usually something happens the day after they appear and its almost always a good thing that happens. Now yesterday not as many appeared, just a few and there was one tiny pink one, then a blue, then a red one, then a few white appeared then they all vanished. Has anyone ever experienced this type of visual? I would love to know. Thanks

Ghosts..possible..some fleeting observational data..but no real formal rigorous study.. we are not there yet..to say for sure anything more than..well, maybe one day this observational stuff can be put thru a more scientific approach( eMF meters and high tech equipment are instruments–not science) — so I like working with gifted studetns in the 5th-8th grade range..we work on improving formal logic ,criticalthinking–not defaulting to supernatural–that is lazy, before you exhaust all possibilities and even when you exhaust them– the supernatural is so ill defined and documented– it is only an educated "guess' despite any "certified ghost hunters" out there. Brain injury/seizure/migriane–epilepsy aura (all codnitions are common –20% of Americans have some form of migriane)–it is a condition that everyone may want to google. variations that are more normal for migraines are migraie with aura–but complicatedimigraine you can have visual , smell, taste, and auditory (hear voices etc) experiences–hallucinations– you will think if uneducated about that condition that you may be being haunted or visited by Jesus or Allah. –almost 20% of the pop. has migraine. Beofre you go paranormal–look for horses whenyou hear hoofbeats as the saying goes–not zebras. Extraoridnary calims require extraordinary evidence…the late astronomer Carl sagan.. .plus, any brain–working fine–can "blip".

I have paranormal experiences(I think–can't know for sure, but my "paranormals" behave differnetly from migriane auras/hallucinations I am very familiar with) and I too have audio/dgital camera stuff that I would have said a year ago if seen with my eyes was some new migraine aura….having true meidcal brain based halluciantions that makes it difficult to study many things–including paranormal (I have a science bkgd and am married to a physicist who does not believe in paranormal things,depsite his seeing a few of the things–he has to attribute them to something –a funny shadow where light is playing tricks with your brain etc) because in Newtowian physics–the world we are made to deal with physically– these encounters– such as picking up EVps simply "cannot be" and a scientist can get really nervous when things don't obey natualr law.. and rules of the phsyical Earth..I think he just thinks i am having more and diff. auras–even I did– but eEgs etc– went and got a compelete brain check when these things began–or I began noticing them (after having taken a hard fall hitting my forehead–May 2009)– that is when the weird stuff began–so I got it checked outmedically–it is not anything new medically..but that is a good way to think about any thing you are unsure of..check out the normal possibliites. and then re-check them in 6 mths..:) –

I discovered my little odd "ghosts/voices" etc quite by accident when I bought a low end Canon digital camera and digital Sony audio recorder for use for my teaching work.. –although as a migrianeur i was quite used to hearing voices and smelling things like my grnam'as denture cleaner–she's dead– and would not have that stuff in myc ar– those are "smell memories" migraine -based– and I am fmailiar with thing s like that.. –not schizophrenic–another think tolook for–esp.if you feelyou are being "possesed"..get they to a doctor fast–psychiatrist and neurologist..now.. I am not commande dto harm anyone, etc by migriane auras– just random memory type things–mostly "memories" I would say that play back– a person with eplepsy/seizures can have these same types of hallucinations pre-seizure etc.. so i have determined ways to differentiate between what is migraine and what is something that I am not ready to say 100% is a ghost or ssupernatural( but am open to those possibilities)–we cannot doconfrim in any scienitific way yet the existence of ghosts etc..despite all our photos and picutres and voices….even mine..and I think itmight be really attributed to paranormal…but there is no way to formally know thru mainstrream, respectable science.. …anyone who thinks that running around with cameras snapping photos and weird eVPs is working scienctifically IS NOT… For one thing.. we have yet to "find" definitvely and I mean definitvely using the current best available scientific method (a formal way–not an intuitve way of studying somethng) ..so we have never seen a pink zebra or a ghost for sure to the statistical statisfaction of science–in most science–for soemthing to be accepted as being real and "so", your ghost or haunting has to be able to be studied under the very same conditions, repeatedly (for decades–not coming in 2-3 times) and has to be studied against a control situation that is the same or as close to the same as the paranormal thing and area you are studying as possible..under the same conditions of weather, temp, season, same everything– minutely the same and boringly slow is the way of real reserch. Other investigators must be able to come onsite–repeat your slow,long often painfully boring research techniques… and succesfully replicate your results a bunch of times to reach statistical significance to say a ghost let's say or a haunting is "real". that has never happened and it is Dec 3, 2009.

If we had def. results, we would see mainstream reserarch money poured into this field. It is the zillion $ question–what happens after we die. Unless the brain/mind are separate–the mind(intellligence) has to die with the body and the body' brain's death. Energy would be either tranferred into soil or into the air like steam if the brain/mind are the same things…mainstream neuroscience is getting more data that says that when we die..we die andno afterlife..BUT, maybe mainstream science is not right. Mainstream science has been wrong before on lots of things–we later find out something else is proven right to a confidence of being 95% sure. But that is the beauty of real science. When it finds definitively that something we alway s thought was right is not right..then science accepts the new right idea…and that is what sep. scientific thinking from religion..any reigion that tellsyou not too think, but to trust, and have faith..be very wary of being willfully ignorant. Being asked and told "not to think" just have faith. What we all are getting w/ our EVPs and photos etc.. is really interesting observations(so there is a part of the Sciencitfic Method being used by some)–some folks just chase for the trhill–that is fine too.. — we are getting observational data–but in an "uncontrolled" way.. so until you can say scientifically that if you and I both went to the same haunted house and 4 other people studied it the same way got the same results enough times over along enough period– and we ran it thru some statistical framework–we woudld be considered valid and right — if we could say that the data shouws w/ a 95% confidence –that means we only have a 5 % chance of being wrong–thensomeone willhave found their ghost.

With what we all have–observational data–your eyes,ears, etc can fool you is just a big idea with some "wathcing the lions like on a safari".. that's ok forthe amateur as long as you do not draw conclusions not supported by your incomplete data. ..and anyone who wants to study the paranormal needs to understand first a bit about the earth world(normal science) and how iEarth's "normal" physics work.. and how our bodies and how our brain is wired together ..how it works.. fo example, how our brians can detect patterns broadly–see them even when they do not exist (Mary in the grilled cheese sandwich) –it is a genetically, evolutionarliy acquired way of thinking–to see something that we think may bedangerous,etc –a built in sruvival mechanism. But science doesnot work that way.It requires formal learning techniques that are independent of your views of the world. For example,.. Correlation does not always equal cause. If you say " Mr ghost, please–bang on that pipe I am standing beside inthis basement and bang 2 times " and that actuallly happens—it is interesting–but not "proof"..it is a leap of faith, not science to say that your request of the ghost was answered by the ghost(you can't even see the ghost–no one has proven they exist)–and tmany things ar just coincidence or we perceive a "pattern" that is not really a pattern at all. Your brain is wired to do this because someitmes you may be usnusre about something dangerous–so it would be better to be wrong and out breath from running away from animaginary tiger than be right if it was really a tiger and mauled.. –now–your observation (the pipe bangin 2x on command) has more "weight" scientifically if you could get that g"ghost" you are talking to to bang on that pipe in the basement let's say 2x upon your request for 100 times you asked it to do. In a row and then for the next 3-5 yrs when codnitions are the same and you are studying this same dingy basement..that is scienitfic way… That would carry some real weight.

Enough "trials" to maybe say that the command was equated with the sound from the pipe scientifically. So that does not mean you do not study the paranormal..if you are interested. but take a moment to learn about physics on the earth and about the device you will need to know the most about–the brain/mind and how humans think–how they can make leaps of logic etc.. we have to do that at times–it serves us welll in day to day life–but it is a poor way to formally study something..that is why the scientific method has to be learned..it is not a "natural way" the brain thinks..you have to set aside your own brian's baggage and "follow the data" and as I said–that data cannot just be observed–it has to be observed and observable and testable etc by not just a person who is "sensitive" but by the biggest skeptic of all–a physicist like my husband (works for NASA) and I have both 4 yrs of nursing school and and a masters inscienceduc so I have had to formally learn how to think. But learn a little about how your world works on a daily basis–nd how your body works –simple things like light–visible light spectrum, the ways the sound and light carry–and the "way" your eyes and ears /brain process these stimuli things like, what is "energy".. and just wiki Scientific method and I htink you willget the idea as to how something is studied scientifically. and it willhelp you in your own stufy of the Para-normal". Observational data is mostly the best we can do right now with paranormal observation, I think. And we have to also look at formal logic, and philosphy to help us think aobut possiblity.. The answer may lie in subatomic /quantum particle phsyics– and that is so counterintuitive no one understnads it–not even many physicists..

Quantuam physics–we are talking about things smaller than electrons.. operate under different "physics"laws than we use on Earth.. the kind of rules that are Alice in Wonderland..up maybe down– spac and time are 2 ways of looking at the very same thing–that kind of thing–I cannot explain it..but , science may eventually–as it finds "observable" subatamic data and establishes a separate or special form of the Scientific Method and tools–right now we have very blunt instruments for regualr folks –digital cameras and such–even IR etc.. and even the very best equipment used by NASA, CERN etc may help provide the the type of ifnormation that is discovered by those theoretical phsycists that eventually helps us make sense of what we get very quick "fleeting" observations of "in the ghost field.. but, thought exercise and field investigation…and parnaormal researchers who want to work as scientists would do would do better by learning form regualr science–how to do formal reserach.. less hoarding of their work –more sharing and setting up formal international protocols for real'research" even given the limited data they have. As for people like me –an amateur paranormal Natualist" I feel. Obsrvations, feelings, recoridngs, etc and am willing to live with uncertainty of probability that there is afterlife and we sruvive intelligently somehow– but will never ever no matter how manny wraiths or sounds I get on tape tell another human being that I a m"sure" their house is haunted..I cannot be sure..because there isnot a body of scientifically, peer reviewed data that is good enough for me touse as a bsis fr studying this scientifically. I think there is a strong possibility that we "get" sometimes things we don't have ready answers for or that are not "normal" inthe sense of the way our Earth works phsyics -wise. But it is aleap of logic to go from that idea to saying you know for sure…when i began having such horrible migraine aruas before I thougt of the supernatural, iwent to the Medline , National LIbrary of Medicnie on line and learned more aobut migraine and that it and seizures could cause these "hallucinations"..but there is a long history..going back many years and it has been replicated under controled codnitions in the lab of academic medicine– paranormal right now cannot.

But if personally asked my opinion — I would say that I think given my own personal experiences etc and observations and my photos and audio recordings…there is a "possibility" what the probability it is that it is what I think it is " intelligence moving without a body– a former living ,breathing human,etc or whatever..I could not say what the probability of that is..the more things you canuse to verif something–the closer you come to being able to be a bit more conviced of the possible of paranormal. But you will still need to test against controls– of some sort–to see if in whatever is considered "non-haunted" can produce the same results , similar results, or confirms that given 2-3 same situations–hthis one has 'something going on" and under the same conditions "the other 2 do not show the same results". Then you have to ivite 20 of your peers in to be able to get the same results you do to have anyhting more than personal meaning… I am content to live with a "personal meaning" of the apranomral. But I never say that it si "true or untrue" because scientifically it is not possible–if you use the accepted methods of the real science community..a trained scientists ways of working.. but have fun, find patterns, analyze, use criiticalthinking skill, and who knows –today's parnaormal observations may eventually be numerous and compelling enough to get reall funding if the paranrmal commmunity who is interested in science gets together and does more than tell stories, show photos, evps–but sets up real protocal that everyone who studys as science has to follow..you cannot do it any other way..that would be comparing apples and oranges.. but perosnal observation is like enjoying "bird watching" or nature study as an amateur–and feel free to satisfy your own curiosity and also form even a personal pilosphy —as long as you do not promote that philosphy as being scienitfic or your results as being 100% "true" .. enjoy,learn, have fun, and just maybe something might come from this will warrant further formal study.

It is enough for me to satisfy personal curiosity. Thanks for listening to this old head..i enjoy this site. And very thoughtful comments –am learning a great deal from you all. Happy Holidays to all and thanks for listening ..Will be shorter in future. Much shorter in text. Cheers, Kath

Check out this white orb i filmed in my house, I have loads more but this is by far the best. http://www.youtube.com/ratash2009

When I was a teenager, In my country Poland, my parents tooked a pictures and it came out like a massive white orbs surrounded by us. The other thing is that I also discovered that my room has a good spirit attached to it cause the light floated like a blink (simuliar to a flush light). Can u have help? Other things I have been hearing are voices nonstop in my room.

A few months back, I was on a trip in California, taking a tour through the Queen Mary. While wandering an old boiler room, I snapped a of a doorway, and there appeared to be a rather large purple orb near the top of the frame. I can't figure out what it means to this day.

I am an indigo child. I have seen many orbs in the few very short years i have lived. I attract different entities. I was also born on the cusp of gemini and cancer. My originality seems to have a magnetic effect on orbs. I scare myself at times because for my age i think way too deeply. usually i just keep to myself but i am also realizing i need to know if there is anyone at all like me? i need to know. i dont fit in with other people.

Hi, we have just had a work party and an orb appeared over one of our faces. White with a clear view of a skull in it. Another few photos showed the orbs around one with a clear cross. What do you think this may mean? I have taken other pictures with faces before but not any with such a clear orb?

Laying in bed the other night, in the dark, when on the ceiling was a round bright green circle, bigger than a baseball. It stayed there for about 10 seconds. Then dissapeared. I do not beleive in paranormal stuff, I think there's an explanation for everything, but this I cannot explain. When i told my daughter about this large green light, she told me its called an Orb. Ive never heard of this until now.

During the am of 23 Dec 09 I awoke to a number of green orbs floating around my deceased husband's face. They were very much like green fire flies except larger. I have never experienced anything like this in my entire life. It was frighting to me. Sometimes I smell a strong cigar odor in my home. I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experince?

Wow. That sounds exactly like what happened to me. I got a camera for christmas and I started taking photos in my bed room. At first I was taking a silly picture. and when I looked at the photo there was one large orb lightblue/gray colored clearly on my leg. After further examination, There was one smaller white orb on my head. So I started taking more photos, more and more orbs started appearing in every photo. Then after 4 photos they all vanished. I took 10 or more photos. In the same areas as before and they were just gone. I waited about 2 hours then took a random shot. there were littlerally a hundred + orbs. Some large some big. I noticed rainbow patterns on one. Blue , Purple ,slight red, green, There are a ton of blue purple and whites. Only 2 or so orbs in the photos had other colors.. I took another photo really fast on a different camera. and There were still alot of orbs. But far less. Then I took a third photo on my first camera and not a sign of any orbs. Its really intriguing. But I think they are shy ^^ (One day a small glass stacked itself into a larger glass and spilled water on my computer desk.. it was very strange. all I heard was a clank and turned on the light. I was the only person in the room :O

Recently I have been looking through my photos and I have been seeing these circular objects that vary in color. This recently started happening and I 'am very scared. Im 13 years old and I dont know what to do. And I dought that it is dust particles because me and my friend took the same picture with her camera and mine and we got the same thing. And her camera is new. Please someone help explain this.

I have a question about red orbs that you can see with the naked eye…..A few days after my daughter was born I woke up in the middle of the night to check on her and when I looked into her bassinet there was a bright red orb the size of a pencil eraser. It stayed above her head for a few seconds and then it disappeared. At first it scared me but the more I thought about it the more it became interesting and I wonder what it was. I only seen it once and it was very bright like one of those laser pens but this was back in 1996 before people had laser pens. Does anyone have an idea of what it could be? Has anyone else seen a red orb around a baby before?

On Christmas this year i took pictures of my tree and on it all the way in the back of the room was a blue circular thing…. is it a ghost?

well we were taking pics in my apartment and we saw clouds but not foggy, weird shapes that were brightened up and we kept taking pics. he saw that there were orbs all around.  as i did that i thought that if i could catch a spirit not knowing i turned quickly stayed still and it was like an orange.  we made a close up and it had like another orange dot in the middle. there was another small orange one. is it a good spirit or not? and what kind could it be? is it harmful?

hi my name is claudia. i recently took some pictures where i was surrounded by spheres of light that weren't there when the picture was taken …in these pictures there seem to be faces in the spheres. what could this be?

Hello, I consider myself an expert on orb identification, if you send me the photos, I will analyze them with my infrared scanner, and tell you what I think.

Last night I went to bed the usual round 11:00pm. I awoke at 12:29 and used the bathroom. When I went back to bed I began to lift my blanket and saw this extremely yellow or green bright ball of light inside my blanket which startled me so I hit my husband and he awoke startled as well. As he asked me what happened, I thought to myself it must have been the light on his cell phone hanging on his pants on the left hand side post of the bed… I told my husband if the heat was still on because I was too hot. I didn't want to try to explain what I'd seen. He quickly fell back into a deep sleep and I kept trying to spot the light from his phone but couldn't. Again, I lifted my sheet and blanket only to see this exact same light now completely opposite where I'd originally seen it. This time it was lower all the way to my left. I was no longer startled but scared and turned on my tummy covering myself completely till I forced myself back to sleep.
Whatever the round ball of light was was inside my blanket not hovering over it but inside. Also, it was no bigger than a lil larger than the size of a quarter.

Also, while on the subject my daughter took this photo a couple of years ago. She wanted to capture the colors of the foliage that fall from our terrace where we live. One day I was going to use her camera and noticed a tiny speck from the small screen and asked her to upload it. This is what was captured. Not exactly sure what it is some sort of anomaly? A co-worker mentioned it looks like a face inside – sort of like a pixie – if that makes sense? Also, on one side of the diamond shape there's a blue light on the other yellow. Any ideas? I'd appreciate your response.

Two photos taken on the same day no flash was used.

Beginning of January 2010 at 10am i saw an oblong shape ORB. its color is purple and it changed into violet. it was moving on my wall on my headboard of my bed. it really moved up and down like it was dancing. i saw it for about 5 mins. pls help me. what is the meaning of it?

well my first encounter with a orb was when my first child was born. he was a month old. i was in my room getting him ready for bed that when i saw a white orb on my wall. i was surprised that it was just there and it wouldn't go anywhere. my mother lived next door to me so i ran out the house and banged on the door. my sister answered the door.  she said what's wrong. i did'nt want to frighten her so i said nothing just bored. she said you act like you just seen a ghost. i said 'naw.' so the next morning she told me she had seen something that looked like a ball of light in the hallway. she said it seemed like it was staring at her. she said she closed her eyes and went to sleep. i told her that's why i came over. she said maybe it was following me. what do you guys think?

now i dont know if this was a orb, but when i had my second son he was a month old. i laid next to him. he looked like he had a red light on his face. his face lit up like he had a light inside his skin. i rubbed his face but it was still there. i started praying to God and the light went away. can someone please tell me what that was?

hi my name is sarah. i went camping with my friend and her family and we were taking photos and thease white orbs started poping up…the next day the park rangers told us where her parents tent was it used to be an indian burial ground…when we went home we zoomed in on the photos and it looked as if there were faces in them ….its kinda freeky so i became more interested in knowing if it was paranormal or not..so if you could please answer my question it would be greatful!! thank you

Hi, I was wondering if some one could answer this question. does anyone know what a black orb means? I havent seen it myself, but our grand daughter is 14 months old, and for about the last 6 months, my husband, grandad, has been seeing little black orbs floating around her face on a regular basis. sometimes they are there and some times they are not. I was nursing her on my knee one day and he said that there was one floating around her forhead, but I could not see it. Does anyone know what it could be!!!, thanks Kimmy

i bought i cctv thingy for my dad yesterday, night vision the usual, just to watch foxes that come into our back garden! we were shocked n still are shocked by some off the things we have seen on it. seems there are orbs, or what i believe to be orbs, all over, and im not just talking a few. im talking 100s, they go quiet, until someone moves. then they're back brighter than ever and they seem to follow people.

i have a picture that we took and was just flipping through them and I found a dark color orb, on the eye of my grandmother. it was like a charcoal gray color. i even have the picture. i can e-mail, i was standing by the door and she was in her chair. if someone could please tell me what it is?

I have a question that I have been seeking answers to and have not come up with much of anything, yet. My grandmother and I were very close, she passed away this past Thursday February 12th at 2:53 pm. My mother and I were there on both sides of the bed hysterical and crying. After about 5 minutes, we calmed down a bit and the first thing I noticed was a song, rather a theme from Young and the Restless by henri Mancini playing on the TV (music channel). This struck me as odd at the time because I don't think that she ever missed an episode since it aired, and she was just talking about the theme song and how pretty it was a week earlier. Then my mother was telling me that she and my grandmother had been seeing lights and shapes of mist in the apt. (my grandfather passed jan 30th 2008). So, my mother told me to look up, and I am not one who has ever seen anything but I do believe. I looked up and it is quit hard to explain but there was a fog not white but greyish, charcoal in color…..you could feel the heaviness when your hand touched it. Then there were at least 20 or more black like specs, small almost looked like it was a dustball. That is what I thought until it went straight toward my head, I moved back watched it go through my hand and then it shot back up to the ceiling. They were all moving around , it was so surreal and 3-d looking. I know I saw this and was perplexed by the color???? Also when the body was removed they where gone , I have not seen them since. Interesting fact as well my grandfather died 6 days before my mother birthday and my grandmother exactly 6 days afterward……I would like to know if anyone can tell me what the color of these , what I believe to be spirits, mean?

i live in derby ct. just moved here about a month ago and i live about 3 blocks from an old cemetery and one cold wintery nite i went to that graveyard and i went up to the gates. i don't know, i guess the keeper locked them. when i took my camera phone, on the camera, in between the bar zooming towards tombstones i can see a flaming red ball (which looks like a hot red orb) and i couldnt see it with my own eyes. i was like what the hell? And i snapped it and got the red orb and towards the upper right, a ghostly looking face.

My father passed away last year and i recently have been asking him to show himself to me. i have several pictures of orbs and was wondering who could i get to take a look at them to tell me if it's real or not. The big white orb that keeps showing up in my photos is very large and very bright. i believe it to be my father but is there someone who can take a look??

A good way to tell the difference in the orbs is if it has a ring or several rings in the orb in a picture than it is dust or just a reflection of some sort of particle in the air. If the so called orb has somewhat of a smiley face inside of it than it is also some sort of dust or particle in the air. I dont believe in posting orbs in pictures as paranormal evidence only because the chances of it being a real paranormal orb is about slim to none. I am sorry if that sounded harsh, I am an investigator myself and I am personally tired of looking at other paranormal investigators websites and seeing every picture they post being either orbs when you can clearly see it is either dust or some other particle, lens flare, or reflection off of something in the room. And they also post the energy mist and that is more than likely breath (even tho you cant see it yourself it still shows up in the cam) or smoke regardless of the person saying oh noone was smoking.

But to answer your question, a real orb will emit its own light, and you will be able to see its own flight path, sometimes it will look like a tail behind it. These are just some of the descriptions of an orb. I hope this helped some. If you have any other questions please feel free to email me.

I took lots of photos of my friends and when we looked at them there were orbs around their head.  may went to a party and when she looked at the photos there were orbs around her friends heads too.

i've seen orbs before, but mostly orange orbs. im not expecting them of course.

In pictures, why do they pop up like that?

well sarah, that was kind of paranormal. i would be freaked out too, notice that it was a indian burial ground.

I had a dream last night that I was at my wedding, and in real life I'm not even married. I'm only 18 but in the dream my whole family was there and it's in a church, kind of angled down. as I'm walking down these stairs/aisle I see something quite unusual. it's my grandfather who has been deceased since I was about 6. in the dream when I see him I can't help but to start crying. the weird thing is my whole family is aware that he's there for my wedding too. they are all staring up at me, and next thing I know he's gone. as I sit in the aisle next to a cousin I begin to cry again. I ask how it was posible, and they tell me at first they all saw a pink rubbery orb/ball floating at one of the pews/seats next to them and he appeared. as they were saying this, I see the same exact thing. it is going up the aisle and it stops directly in front of me. I can actually feel the orb, it feels as if it were made of a verry soft rubber and looks like as if it were two circles intertwined. in this circle I see an image of my grandfather smiling at me. I feel his arm around me squeezing me tight hugging me. I begin to cry again. this is when I wakeup from my dream, only to see I am still in tears. I still felt his arms around me as I woke up. will someone PLEASE tell me what this means. it will mean alot if you told me or made an attempt. u can get ahold of me at my email markruiz2323@yahoo.com. thank you

i have a picture taken at my aunty's wedding with all of all the family. there are 2 pictures taken one after the other. in one of the pictures there is a big purple orb in front of my face and a purple shine in my right eye, but in the other picture there is nothing? i also have a picture of me at my friend's house with a duller purple orb again in front of my face, with a duller purple shine in my right eye. its as if im looking streight at it. i have seen orbs before but they are always white. what does the colour purple mean?

I have seen orbs three times since my brother in law was violently murdered the night before our wedding. 6 months after he passed we finally got married in Santa fe and I saw two circling orbs super white light next to each other. I saw a red one fly over me when at a silent retreat in the woods months later. finally i saw one last week that split apart in the sky and danced around the sky, again white in color. i've been angry and confused about his passing and some of his life choices. Could this be him trying to connect or simply angels? i never feel anything during the experiences but do wonder what's going on. Any ideas?

whats an orange orb mean? if someone could answer that for me id be so grateful.

look im not gonna lie me an my buddie have been experiencing some unexplainable encounters with what we think are to be are orbs..we have both seen orbs together, and apart from each other … just this last weekend we were having a get together taking pics from a digital camera at night, just catching up an remembering the good times. well when we put the pics on the computer there are unexplainable white yellowish transparent floating balls there were "orbs" on us literally on us chilling there …ranging from 5 to 20+ orbs in different picture… some clearly gave off light . there were 3 ppl in one photo at a time and they were literally right next to me and josh nobody else .. we get goose bumps just looking at the pictures or telling a story .. we havent let it bother us till now.. after we have seen these pictures with 20+ orbs in one pic jsut around me and josh … We are not making this up. We need some sort of advice, some sort of help with this.  We don't know what to do.  Honestly could some one please help us out…

I have recently been experiencing really bright little looking orbs around me. I notice them out of my peripheral vision but they are very vivid. It's really strange they just appear out of nowhere, I find this to be a little strange because I am experiencing them in person. they only last a few seconds then disappear. Can anyone let me know if they know what this is or if anyone else has experienced this before.

The orb I saw was a translucent red, about the the size of a baseball, and moved like a wiffle ball, like someone else accurately described. It appeared out of nowhere in my large backyard in a very populated suburb of california. When it appeared, it was 30 feet directly in front of me at a height of about 10 feet.. it drifted north, along a fence line (3 feet above it), and when it came to a very large bushy tree it proceeded to arc into a VERTICAL ASCENT to avoid the tree. After ascending about 5 feet it either faded out, sped up to speeds my eyes cant detect… or ?????? This was in the middle of the city around 10 o'clock at night. Lasted approx 1 min. The orb was not completely uniform in color (red). It seemed to be radiating energy, pulsing, moving, (something) very midly, because of the variations of orange to red that happened from the center out. There may have been movement within the orb as well, imagine a ball of light with a gyrating center of energy. Trippy huh? How the f am I supposed to interpret that, lol. I was 18, good health, never needed glasses.. just walking through my backyard. Nothing ever again. At the time I thought it was intelligent vs an actual illuminated ball. Remote or internal intelligence idk ^.^

The first orb that I saw was around a little girl about eight years old. I saw in a dream and she had a dark red orb around her. I looked up the color dark red and it means anger, pain, and psychological impairment. Now I take this into consideration and take the orbs I see more seriously.

What you saw was an orb. Do not fear because all it is is a spirit trying to communicate with you. I have the ability to see orbs and I'm looking for the answers I have. Charlotte, you have to communicate with it.

My in laws came to visit thanksgiving and they have a fancy camera where you take quick frame by frame pics. so we told them that we hear stuff and pics fly off the wall and such. he went to the stairs and made pics. well in them was a blue orb that was flying around and into the wall. then my sister in law proceeded to go upstairs and ask it questions. one of my pictures then flew off the wall. As they were leaving, she was making pictures and there was a redish orange orb floating around outside. someone please tell me what these colored orbs mean.

what do orange orbs mean?  usually i know they're trying to talk to you. they just cant because some of them are orbs and light.

I had an unusual experience. 9 years ago I had saved a friend's life, and when she was out of the hospital we sat in total darkness in my TV room discussing Kaballah. I was exhausted at the time. All of a sudden I saw a stationary purple orb about 3 feet high and somewhere between a round and oval shape in the next room. I kept blinking my eyes because I couldn't comprehend what I was seeing. Then the orb floated into my room and placed itself about 8 feet away from me in front of the couch. After a minute or so it disappeared. Then all of a sudden 3 similar purple orbs appeared together in the same spot in a formation in the other room, remained stationary for a littl bit, then floated into my room and placed themselves in front of the couch. After about a minute they suddenly vanished. I didn't know what to make of what I had just seen, and waited a few minutes before asking my friend if she had seen anything unusual. She had not. So, these orbs appeared to me for some reason, and I have yet to figure out just what type of energy being they were. Some people have speculated that they were angels.

I saw a white orb when I was little inside my house. I put my hand over it

Hi Fran, I have seen 2 orbs. One at my moms house when I was little. I got married and was living in another house and saw another one. Inside my house is where they were. I put my hand over the light and I covered it. Weird. They did not move around. What do you think this means?

Help,
Marilyn

When I ask my daughter to ask this ghost, why is she here, who are her parents etc. My daughter said that she don't want to know that, because she want to feel alive. I almost lost my daughter because of all those things that was happening to her. And a lots more things. My daughter voice change sometimes to. My instinct as a mother, know that, that is not my daughter. She always talk alone, wel with this thing. I even brought her to a psychology.

i have a picture of my son at his soccer game with ghosts behind him. not orbs, but faces in a tree and a girl with red hair looking from behind the tree. he has a white shadow going over him. my son sees the dead. mainly his uncle. he has been able to see him for the last 4 years. at first it freaked me out. i know my brother is still here with him cause he turns on his t.v. and i can hear him talk to him. the picture is what concerns me. if any one knows anyone i can send it to, to get them to tell me exactly what it is, please do.

There are always weird lights of pictures i take of my daughter, can someone please help me read them. Thank you

I took a photo of a friend of mine and on the top right hand side of his torso he has an orb in the picture. Later he was showing me another photo taken maybe a year earlier with an orb in the same place. I have since noticed that most of the photos of him taken by all different people, in different places at different times of the day have this orb in the same spot.

Any clues on what's going on?

My husband had almost exactly the same experience at his parents' home three days ago…old farm house…my research led me to your posting…cell phone, etc. But the air was cold. Please…if you get any more info I would really like to hear about it.

can someone help me figure out what has happened to me? i was in my bathroom getting ready for work. a bright light or fireball flew over my head and hit my bath tub and made a big boom and dissappeared without a trace of anything left behind. if anyone else has had this happen please let me know what you have found out about this.

So two nights in a row I had translucent purple see through skulls floating like three feet in front of me for like 2-3 hours each night. They where rotating and each one was a different shape. Fat heat, tall head, average head. Well when I looked to left of the room they driffed farther away acording to how far I looked. And the more I looked straight, the closer they came. So they were there when I closed my eyes too. I couldn't get rid of them till two hours into the second night. I jumped out from under my covers and swang at them and they vanished. So what do 3 purple skulls rotating in front of u mean? Or what spirit is represented by skulls…purple see through. I just was so scared and I really think this has to do with the spiritual.. Respond please and thanks for your time.

Hey Please email me about this green orb of yours. I'm starting to see something like that in my new home, but i happen to see couple of times like for a mili second. but there are noises around our rooms and beds at night time. It is 2:35am and it's starting to get increase but I wouldn't consider it something serious. I see something like greenish with mix of a bright blue.

My niece (6 years old) has seen many red orbs at night in a bedroom of my mom's 100 yr. old house not long ago. She woke and saw like 100's, they were moving up and down and side to side, and touching her grandma and granddad who were asleep, but she woke them and was very scared. It happened the next night too. I know of 3 people who have died in this house. My mom has seen only 1 or 2 white orbs every so often in the middle of the night in her bedroom, but she's never scared.

I am 70 yrs old and have seen orbs for years. There are gold ones….red always appears when there is danger or trouble. Green is near if i am ill. I see white and yellow, and blue as well. They are spirits….and always helpful in some way. they behave in an intelligent and helpful manner.

Orbs are also in churches. i went to a service where there were 3 priests. There was a gold orb above each of their heads. Also….when sincere people pray the room can fill up with tiny gold lights…but only if it is sincere and from the heart.

How many people have seen the orbs at Lake Las Vegas? My friends go out to concerts, and see them out over the lake? We are going to go out to see a concert next week,and I hope to see them there.

Pink denotes "The Heart Chakra" and indicates "Love."

To me "blue" denotes "communication."

I have seen with my own two eyes a BRIGHT blue orb at least 3 ft by 2ft that froze me stone cold for at least a minute. Im absolutely not joking, it scared the shit out of me and i can see it still in my mind to this day. It was 3 am and i woke for no reason cause it felt like something was watching me and i looked up… I was so shocked i could not even shake my boyfriend awake. Strange thing is i was not scared but i knew i did not want to get up and fool with it. Honestly i cant remember how it dissappeared, it just did. 

What is worse is it wasnt one of those orbs you see on the tv where they have pictures of tiny orbs. No this was a huge mass of an orb that i dont think i will ever see again… I dont know if i would want to.

This is insane. I'm a 13 year old and i have been seeing abnormal things like this for a long time. I have just recently become scared of them because i have a dark red one and  white one following me. I feel the need to be blessed but i dont want to disturb it…help on ideas and any help i would love :)
Thanks

I've taken mutliple pictures with orbs in them and i've seen and felt some stuff around here…. i give them their space generally and only interact with the spirits if they do first. only scared of one in my house in the back room. but i pretend it isnt there and keep the door closed.

Karleigh, don't be afraid, they feed off your energy. i'm 14 myself and i understand. if they mess with you just ask them what they want or simply tell them to leave you alone for awhile. they usually will only contact you if they need help. they may be following you to protect you or because they feel attached to you or something. they shouldn't do anything to harm you. just ask what they want. good luck.

what do red orbs mean? cause when i once took a picture of my hallway i saw one.

i had took a photo last night. it was my friends birthday, anyway the lights were off and the candles were still burning on the cake.d i took a photo on my phone, the next morning i woke had a look and noticed these two red orbs, and they were large orbs. they wern't tiny as seen in some photos. i want to know what the red orbs mean? why were they there on that night of 13-05-2010.  please email me back

Re: Floating Purple Skulls:

Hi, in ancent times skulls meant wisdom and knowledge and purple was the color that corresponds to this as well. Research the various crystals skulls and the various unknown skulls being found around the world. There are crystal skulls that have been found whose shape denote other alien races that have/may exist or intereacted with humans here on Earth. What you are experiencing sounds like a Shamanic initiation should you choose to accept it.

By taking the skulls into yourself you would be in contact with those races of beings and begin downloading information from those people. Why? Because as we approach 2012 we as a race are changing from a carbon based being to that of a sila base. This means we are graduating and as we do will be allowed to move among more spiritual and knowing beings. You, seeing the skulls, more than likely have come to Earth for the sole purpose of helping to seat such knowledge within yourself and thus would gain the ability to give it to others in the world.

We, as a species, have incarnated time and time again. Well, now it is time for graduation and some of us have come with a purpose and a mission to assist others in waking up… Congradulations, it sounds like you have a very intersting mission and will be working with the Crystals Skulls. May I suggest you arrange a meeting with one of the skulls to get more answers. There are several people that own the skulls and travel around the world with them allowing people to touch them and communicate with them. Sound too fantastic??? Not at all, a single skull of crystal can house more information that all our worldly computers now combined… research..research..research… your path is before you now. What you do with it is up to you.

Bright Blessings and Good Luck

RE: Orbs

Some orbs are spirits this is true. However, there are larger orbs that are a plasma type of ship that can be driven by people of various species. How do I know…been there…done that…

RE: Orbs

Orbs can come in many different shapes, colors and sizes. The color of the orb is the key to the energy of the being or spirit within and many life forms can take the shape what is commonly known as a orb. But there are also pin pricks of lights from the fairy or elemental kingdom and larger orbs that can house smaller and larger humanoids as a mode of transportation.

These energy balls are a form of living plazma and we are all beginning to feel or see them because we are evolving. This means our vibrations are rising and so we can not into connect and contact such beings. Most of the orbs are friendly and inteligent, with very few being negative. If, you think you have a negative energy…send it pink love and white light. Do not send anger or fear. Anger and fear feed lower energies as that is all they know or can feed on.

By sending LOVE, Compasion, Forgiveness and asking for guidence for the orb you can discern which are posiitve and which are negative. Negative Energies/Orbs cannot feed or exist except by creating mischeif. By calling out to "The Source" for guidence, education and the removal of the negative energy you clear your space and the negative energy will be removed for help and assistance. This is best for you both.

Otherwise, many orbs are in your life to bring joy, love, healing and help…

Indigo child-You are not like others. I am like you and am older. Since young like you, I had the "knowing", am so empathetic I pick up feelings on the living and the passed on souls. You can probably feel all of creation in your soul and mind. You don't think like others probably huh? Feel alone often within your own thoughts that others never think of. You may have what I call my "epiphanies." So much with an Indigo Child that no one can understand, but you will find others who are like you as you grow and learn. Develop your skills and don't be afraid.

i seen loads of things.  i just try not to think about it.

I recently did a house clearing and took pictures in different rooms. Two clear ones and one very unusual one. It wasn't round and it was 4 different colors. Black red green and yellow.It also changed its shape at one point.

The other morning as the sun was coming up I decided to take some pictures and discoved these orbs. Red on the ouside and yellow in the center.At first I thought it was a refection of the sun but when I enlarged the picture it was very obvious it wasn't.Very interesting.This is the first time That any of my pictures have ever shown orbs.

Whenever my grandmother would come over we would always take pictures and all these white orbs would be around her. White means protection so we have nothing to worry about. We may think it's our family that is these orbs. Her daughter ( my aunt ) died and her husband died also( my grandfather). It could be them it could not. My house is really old so it could likely someone else.

For four years now I've seen apparitions and orbs this starting during my first pregnancy. I have tried to recently ignore the blue and white orbs I usually see and a couple days ago one tried to gain it's energy by the TV as usual and i deliberately rolled my eyes and stared harder at the TV. The orb went from blue to red and in that instant that I saw red I watched it float over and knock down my crutches leaning top up against the couch a few feet away from me. I looked straight at it and said "Please don't do that" and the orb changed to a big blue white and purple one as if to say "Thank you for finally aknowledging me." I usually don't get physical interactions like that but I don't want to start talking to the orbs like they are a person next to me because people who don't know about it can think your crazy or weird to talk to the open air. It gets pretty frustrating and I feel I put up a huge guard whenever I go anywhere public so that there are no wierd instances while I'm out and about with my family. I feel like I'm stuck between being a normal fun loving parent and an accepting and understanding medium, I guess I have to roll with it and try to naturally go back and forth between the two.

Dear anna I can understand what you say, I have always been a quiet and sensitive girl scared of the dark and secretly beleiving in spirits. I have grown into my early twenties now and with all my experiences combined I have become more open with my family and close freinds about what I have witnessed but only a few people. My whole family has always looked at me as being highly intellectual and sensitive to feelings, but I still feel that I can't reveal my true self to many because some people i start to tell things to get a confused look to their face and they seem to tell themselves " I thought I knew this person but now I'm not so sure." The only person I can talk freely about it with is my mother in law who is of strong cherokee heritage but due to the hardships of her life she can be manipulative and deceiving when it comes to being social with people. Sometimes I think the only truths that come ot of her mouth are things that involve the paranormal. I am one who beleives in things just and fair and I start to feel very alone sometimes. I just wish Icould meet someone who truly knows what I feel. My husband had scarry experiences as a child so he does not like to talk about it at all. My mother in law says my children are very strong with "the gift" as she calls it, and I get tinges of excitement, knowing I'm not alone, and fear, also knowing that if a person gets too scared it can lead to isolation and I strive for my kids to be outgoing and happy in their future. I was one who became isolated and I have been working on this my whole life. I am farther in progressing toward having and keeping freinds but even those I met in high school and are stiil freinds with to this day do not know all about meIf you know what i mean. I don't want to scare people away with what i know to be true. I almost feel that my best freind is science because science is never wrong or judgemental. Thanks!

hi my son who is 9 years old says he sees red dots all around him and shadows hes so scared to go to bed at night on his own what can i do please help anybody thanks.

I took a picture of my self on my cell phone and down loaded it on the computer. When it came up on the screen i noticed a blue haze to the left of me with a figure of my ex husbands wife that recently passed a way a year ago. You can tell it is a woman and it looks like her. It is a face figure of her. I had not seen him in about ten years and he showed up at my door for help, him and his kids. We got back together and now we are apart again. I pray a lot and asked his wife to please send some kind of signal to him from her to make him straighten up his life for his kids. Do you think that it is a sign from her to me. Letting me known she is here to help.

I live in Southeast Texas. in the area around our Bayou we have cemetery's. they are the most active with Orbs and a lot of Orbs with faces. this is a Paranormal Orb. they are very interesting. So look closely at your orbs in your pictures and show your friends .

well last night i was lying in bed just listening to music in the dark when a white orb appears above me next to my bed. I freaked out and moving my ipod incase it was light reflecting off of it, and of course it wasn't. So i got up and ran past it which made all the hair on my body stand up.
Before i saw it i got emotional and cried over some family issues
so i dont know if the spirit was there to comfort me or what

My mother passed away on April 30 of this year. As she was dying my sister and I whispered in her ear to give us a sign that she was ok after death. I was sitting in my recliner on July 8 about 12:30 – 1:00am just looking up at the ceiling – the room was totally dark when suddenly I noticed a bright white light about the size of a baseball (maybe a bit larger) slowly move along the ceiling right up to where I was sitting. I got a little nervous and turned on the light and it disappeard. This light was unlike anything I have ever seen. It was not an outside reflection or headlights or a flashlight. I was not dreaming it either. I tried to recreate it the following night with a flashlight and couldn't. I am sure this was my mother letting me know she was ok.

This is absolutely fascinating stuff. My own research into similar phenomena has been recorded in 'UFO: The Search for Truth', which was my last book.

I just saw 4 orbs go across my room i looked them up online and it says that the colors mean…

*peach-ability to comfort
*gold- free flowing energy, tolerance
*light blue- tranquility
*white- high frequency protection and shielding
before my great-grandmother died, she said that i will always be protected and looked after when others couldn't, is this what she ment?

As a young child I have memories of seeing up-close Red and yellow beachball size orbs of light behind my head while sleeping in my bed that would move from left to right and stay there for quite some time but would never allow me to get a face to face clear look at them, I know the orbs was moving in this pattern becuase they would light up the whole wall behind my head and I could see them out of the corner of my eye sort of speak. for the fist couple of occasions this happened It would scare me to the point of hiding under my duvet covers until it went away although I could still see the light shining through the sheets so often I would shut my eyes hoping it would go! After this had happened a few times it no longer scared me and I would often ignore the fact it was there and simply go back to sleep, But I clearly remember the yellow orb to have a calming, soothing/peacefull effect on me and give me a sense of safeness even though there was no reason to feel unsafe.

eventually I think it simply stopped happening as it became a normal thing I didnt really notice when it stopped totally, but ive often thought what it meant or what they were now im much older (32). Ive never seen anything like it since and I KNOW it was real, it wasnt some reflection or light source from eleswhere this was a physical floating ball of light that you could litrally reach out and touch!

maybe someone out there has seen the same ….?

Hey! i liked your story id love to see the pix :)

red orbs mean anger so becareful. not necessarily angry with you, probably angry of a situation that happend when they were alive and it never got resolved.

religion and science are far from the same,so tired of people saying that!

green orbs mean fertility or healing

Hi Anna,i believe your daughter can see into another world.This little girl knows your daughter can see them and your daughter has im sure lots of energy and the ones on the other side like that,thats how they still feel alive.your daughter needs to some how learn to either ignore them,or tell them they have to leave.that should make them go.No phycoligist can help.your daughter has to do this.and yes black shadows are not good,thats evil.sometimes they will make child ghosts do things they dont want to do or manipulate them into doing so.

i believe the white orb is there to protect you.

Lynn is right red does mean anger, so be careful.

Do you teach new students in Reiki ? If yes pls provide your contact and address. Might be interested. Jimmy

When I was 14 i was in New Mexico in my Grandmothers trailer with my dad. We were going to sleep in a room and I was not sleeping. There was a window at the head of the bed and for some reason I touched it with my hand. I put my hand back down and without me know why and for no reason I did the same motion again. When I did all of a sudden an extremely bright blue orb like neon blue the size of softball went straight through my face and followed by one more really quickly.

These two orbs hit me and went straight through my body and it felt like the most powerful awakening flash of pure energy. A moment after they went through my body , I looked at my my father who was lying to the left of me and we simultaneously looked to the left side of the bed and for about 10 seconds the two orbs hovered and about 10 inches apart and about 5 feet in the air. Then they slowly floated one after the other in front of the bed and through the door and down the hall I suppose because the door was closed.

My dad grabbed me after that and asked if I was ok. He thought I must have been electrocuted or something. Then I laid my head back down and peacefully went to sleep.
**As a side note: I dont know if this is connected but. That day earlier we went to visit my grandfathers grave in Santa Fe that I had never been too and I also went down into a Hopi Kiva and was down there for about an hour by my self and felt as if I may have had a bit of a vision of sorts as me sitting around the fire with men putting red tail hawk feathers down my arm. Then I came out. It felt like I was only sitting down there for 10 min. But my Pop said I was there for about an hour.

Please help if anyone has any footage of something like these orbs or has ever had one pass through there body. This is very real. I am not lying. I have studied my whole life and never heard of another story similar to this. I am glad at least my Pop was there to confirm my story. Help Please.

Jason, New Mexico is a very spiritual place. I'm sure you were definitely experiencing your Grandfather's presence.. I lived outside of Santa Fe of 6 years and have heard many stories from people..

My house is probably around 100+ years old. My mom went into the basement and saw an orb. At first she thought that it was her watch reflecting light, but she couldn't recreate the scene. She also had said that it was a yellow orange color. Say that a – represents an orb. She said that is moved as follows (left to right):

– _ _ _ – – _ _ –

and then it disappeared.

I've also myself heard some noises (tapping, footsteps etc.) and my question was always do we have a ghost or is it my imagination. My question is, can orbs make noises? And can they harm you?

Please and thanks.

@ Tammy Weaver – do you by any chance live in Eastern Colorado? Because there is an area there where I saw a very large bright blue orb hovering over (but moving, like… following the curves of the land, but from high up) what looked like an old wagon trail. I do not normally believe in anything paranormal, but I saw that with my own eyes, right next to my car. It is so funny you mention a wagon trail.

the only time i have seen these "orbs" we pictures taken in my house. But anywhere else they are not there. I even have one of my cat and dog looking at it…

My wife of thirty years passed away last week. Prior to that, by about two weeks, I installed a security surveillance system in my home office which is about sixty feet from the house. My intention was to be able to watch the house while I was working and when I was at work. I have been working in the computer and security field for most of my life. By profession I'm a writer so I have seen a lot, but nothing like what I'm seeing now. I also have an electronic background and have several major degrees. I just want you to know that I'm not a quack even though I have written several horror novels among others. A few days after I installed the first camera's the motion detectors began picking up all kinds of weird stuff including orbs, spikes, rods, small clouds and an assortment of geometrical entities too numerous to describe.

I have seen these on cameras for many years while working in securing but nothing like this. My cameras are night vision camera's that use IR (infrared beams) and they are extremely powerful. I have eliminated bugs, lens flare, reflections from the moon and all the common things. I was also a UFO investigator so I know all about how most people misidentify most common reasons for a sighting and other objects. As I sit here now I'm looking at several orbs that are strung together like a translucent pipe or spike. As this thing moves in front of the camera (which the motion detector has activated) the coin-like orbs make it look a little like a large spine. The fact that it has activated the motion detector is proof enough that it is real and not some defect in the electronics or active molecules. It acts like a human or animal would act. It hovers in front of the camera, real close up and sometimes you can only see part of it. I went outside and checked for small spider webs and there were none. I never saw any moths or bugs around. It is absolute dark outside but the night vision picks it up clearly.

You can see objects in the background through its body. Sometimes it hovers there right in front of the camera and at other times it moves in different directions. The fact that it can appear on camera one at one instance and then fly away (zip is more like it) to appear on several other cameras and activate them is pretty good proof that it is some kind of energy. They seem rally interested in the beam coming from the camera. I don't know if they are curious or if they are getting energy from the cameras. Right at the moment I have three of twelve camera's activated by these creatures. It is really scary late at night. As a writer, I'm writing this as it is happening trying to document everything in exact detail so some of my spelling may be off.

At the moment I can see an orb at the bottom of the string (it is translucent) and dimmer orbs. I believe when you see orbs (as I'm seeing one on another camera) I believe that they are only one orb of many that exists in a string. If you took a flexible glass tube and put silver dollars in it so they could move back and forth with variable spaces between the dollars and you could see thorough it then you'd know what I'm talking about. A black cat just activated my motion detector on my light and the orb has disappeared on one camera. That has happened before but as soon as the light went back, it is back again.

If these things can activate IR cameras with night vision then they must be physical. This thing is annoying. This camera has been activated for over an hour now. The other night one of them hovered around the camera for over half an hour and then zipped back toward the rear fence. Instead of going through the fence like I expected it to do, it went right over the fence and appeared on another camera later.

I'm inclined to believe that when we die we just release our souls (I prefer to believe the soul is just some form of electromagnetic energy like you get when you wrap copper wire around a nail and run low voltage through it) and that what I am seeing are souls or ghosts. I don't believe they can see us but I do believe they can sense us like we sense them. My wife's urn is in the living room waiting for transfer somewhere else. When I walk into that room I get cold chills all over.

I live in Cincinnati and can't explain the high amount of activity here. I have worked in many security control centers late at night and you might see a few of these worms or orbs in an entire year. I have seen hundreds of them here in less than a month. Right at the moment, I am looking at three of them. Remember, I know moths from these things. IR turns almost everything white when it's viewed on the screen. Some of these things show a little color but not many. The other night while it was so dark out you couldn't see the tip of your nose, one appeared at one of two camera's outside the office door so I took my Nikon camera out and shot twelve pictures. None of the orbs showed up on the camera but they were still on the monitor inside. The cat doesn't seem to be disturbed by these things although I'm sure the animal can see it. They probably ignore the ghosts.

More proof of the reality of these things will be this winter when bugs and other insects won't be out. I have recorded some of these things on a DVR but sometimes you cannot record them. When they activate the camera's the DVR begins recording. If these things appear in the winter when spiders are out then I will know that it is not spider webs or anything like that. I have seen these on security cameras when it was snowing outside.

Well, it is still activating my camera outside my office door. I stepped outside and there aren't any moths or spider webs on the camera or near it. It is pitch black out. It acts like a bumble bee sometimes that hovers over and around the camera. They can move up, down, in/out and can move very fast. They can move forward and backward. They only show up at night. Noise and other human activity doesn't disturb them. Two nights before my wife died there were several on the camera in the backyard all night.

If this was lens flare or something inside the camera they would not be able to move in every direction. It's almost like it is trying to aggravate me. It's doing one hell of a job. If you want to experience this phenomena you can get a complete night vision camera system from tigerdirect.com for well under three hundred. Do not point night vision cameras at each other and mount them on wood not something like the siding on your house that is grounded.

This thing definitely reminds me of a human spine. I'm only seeing a little of it in the left bottom corner of the camera. Perhaps this is like going to Myrtle Beach for them. A day at the beach to soak up infrared beams. Someone could make a fortune by attaching a small IR night vision camera to a monitor in a small case and selling it for a couple of hundred dollars.

As I close I now have four camera's activated and not getting much writing done. I'm sorry about the length of this but I'm trying to document everything as it happens. Some of the things are not orbs. They are smaller and could be moths but I don't think so. This area I live in was once a cemetery where people came to escape cholera. They call it Mt. Healthy. I'm not feeling that way now.
