Mysterious Green Indoor Orbs: A Retrospective (Part 8)

 Below is Part 8 of a retrospective showing some of the better photos I have taken indoors of mysterious green orbs.

The photo below shows a mysterious orb I photographed indoors.

The photo shows four mysterious orbs I photographed indoors, three of which were green. They all have rings near their outer circumferences, something often seen in such orbs.

The photo below shows a mysterious orb I photographed indoors.  As in these photos, we see two different rings near the circumference of the orb.

The photos below show some colorful mysterious orbs I photographed. The one at bottom was in front of an air filter that has no green color at all.


In the photos below, we see two mysterious orbs I photographed near my TV, one green and one blue.

Synchronicity Strikes Again

 I have quite a few times on this blog discussed remarkable cases of synchronicity I have observed, often cases that seemed to be a potential spiritual manifestation. The latest such case happened just a few minutes ago. 

I sometimes amuse myself thinking about the fantasy of a mind-reading polyglot who dazzles people in a subway car, by going from person to person and speaking in each of the diverse languages used by those sitting in a New York City subway car.  In this fantasy I also imagine this person being able to read the minds of those sitting in the subway car, so that he knows their names, though they have never before met. 

This time I thought of the fantasy with a twist involving a deceased sibling. I imagined the mind reader knowing a pet name occasionally used by my deceased mother when referring to one of my two deceased sisters. I imagined the polyglot mind-reader encountering this sister and saying, "Aha, it's V___ J____ R____. " When I imagined that, I used the full name(s) or word(s). 

Within 1 or 2 seconds after thinking of that V___ J____ R___ referring to a deceased sibling, the light in front of me (from the window in back of me)  mysteriously flickered quite noticeably, causing the wall shown on the right half of the photo below to briefly look different for a moment. 

There were no electric lights on. Here was the view in front of me:

And here was the view in back of me (the windows were all closed, and the curtains are heavy):


I can't imagine any reason why the light falling on the wall in front of me would have flickered. The back lot behind the window shown above was an unoccupied concrete lot with no trees or bushes, surrounded on three sides by white walls about 7  feet high. After the event described above, I stood for minutes facing the spot where I noticed the strange flickering, and noticed no other flickering of the light from the window.

New US Government Document Dump Mentions "Orbs of Light" at the Spookiest Ranch

 The US government has just released Tranche 7 of its release of documents related to UFOs or UAPs. Searching for the word "orb" using the search page you can reach here, I get a search result corresponding to the page here. The page has this remarkable statement: "It also records extensive reported accounts involving 'dog-like bipedal creatures,' orbs of light, 'little people,' 'prehistoric-looking' birds, among other phenomena, and states that BAASS intended to use interactive methods to attempt communication with the presumed source of reported anomalous activity." 

There is a link to a pdf file you can read here. The file is a report on mysterious occurrences at the famous Skinwalker Ranch, which has been associated with the strangest observational reports. On page 8 we read this jaw-dropping claim: "Eleven (11) separate individual witnessed a bipedal 'dog-like' creature and/or orbs of light at different times in different locations near the Utah property."

Around page 46 we have a "Lighting Anomaly" table. Reading the table is a bit tricky, because rows on multiple pages of the table refer to the same observation(s). The presentation of the data is clumsy, and it would have been better to have presented the observation reports outside of a table arranged in such a way.  The table seems to tells us this:

  • Multiple people saw floating "glowing balls of white light" the size of basketballs, which had "flickering colors within."
  • One person saw a blue orb the size of a basketball at an altitude of 3-4 feet, and another person saw a blue orb the size of a golf ball.
  • Another person saw a golden orb. 
  • There were various other orb sightings. 

The document dump also includes the pdf file here, where we read the following: 
  • "Witnesses say the amber glowing orbs are like nothing they've  seen before" (page 36). 
  • One man saw a single ball of light, which spawned several other lights (page 36). 
  • Witnesses saw for 20-30 minutes a white ball of light with a red ball of light traveling around it (page 77). 
  • "One of the blue orbs flew across the road in front of the car, while the other two entered the car as it sped along at 85 miles per hour" (page 126). A witness reported one of the orbs entering her body and exiting it, and causing nausea, and also additional symptoms.

"String of Pearls" Orb Motion: A Retrospective (Part 6)

What I call the "string of pearls" effect is an effect in which a photo seems to show multiple position states of an orb traveling very fast. Below is Part 6 of a retrospective of my photos showing such an effect.

My photo below was taken in Grand Central Terminal in New York,  We see a most spectacular example of a moving orb. This example shows what I call the "string of pearls" effect, where we see multiple position states of a moving orb, which end up looking rather like pearls on a pearl necklace. 

My photo below was taken in Grand Central Terminal in New York. We seem to see an orb that is moving in a W-shaped motion (tilt your head and you can see the W-shape). We see an example of the "string of pearls" effect in which different position states of a fast-moving orb look like pearls on a pearl necklace. In this case there are at least six "pearls" in the "necklace."

My photo below shows a featureless indoor wall. We see an orb that seems to be moving very fast. The camera seems to have captured four different position states of a hurtling orb. The apparent size was about 20 inches.

My photo below shows what seems to be an orb moving fast above a wooden floor. The camera seems to have captured three position states of a fast moving object.

My photo below was taken in Grand Central Terminal in New York.  We a blue orb that seems to be moving very fast, in an undulating manner (as we also see in these 20 photos).  We also see the "string of pearls" effect shown in this series of photos, in which we see position states of a moving orb that resemble pearls on a pearl necklace.

Below is the larger photo from which this photo was cropped.

My photo below shows what I call the orb "string of pearls" effect, in which we seem to see multiple position states of a single fast-moving orb. The end result looks like a string of pearls on a pearl necklace.

My photo below shows an orb that seems to be moving very fast, in a squiggly wiggly path, next to a big flag in Grand Central Terminal in New York.

Below is a closer look at the orb. We see the "string of pearls" effect in which we see contiguous position states of a moving orb, which look like pearls on a necklace. There are three different changes of direction in a short space, something that is impossible for dust, insects, or birds.
