Orb Colours

Hi all, can any one help me by telling me what different colours in orbs are alluding to?

Id like to think that they are trying to communicate but i dont know what! Warnings? Greetings? To date i have filmed Transparent , translucent,white, yellow , green and a very deep blue / turquoise with extremely bright white dot.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi Bryan. First I have to let you know I hate orbs. I believe 99.9% of the ones on the Internet are nothing more than dust or moisture. If any orbs are authenticly paranormal I am not sure what the colors may mean but I can give you a few of my thoughts and possible theories. They could be a form of communication. It is said we carry or personalities with us after we die it could simple be a favorite color of the spirit or a reflection of their mood. Now for the theory I think makes most sense. I think they are colored according to their level of energy sort of the way fire(another form of energy) changes color as it changes temperature. Ok I guess thats it for my mindless rambling hope it helps or at least gives you some ideas to look into it and maybe be the one to find the answer to the mystery of the colors.

There are also many accounts of orbs being mistaken for various types of lens flare especially from infra red sourced cameras! I agree that most orbs are mistaken identity!

However in the case above with the coloured orbs photographed we also managed to film several objects on multiple cameras and camcorders from different angles. They ( the cameras / camcorders) were of varying makes so i presume that it is not a camera quirk of a specific make.

I like the communication theory and im interested in your theory of higher lower "energy level" - do you mean a spiritual energy level or literally an energy which is gaining or losing strength? Or both?

I ask about the spiritual side of things because the area investigated is alleged to be haunted by a monk.

Thanks for your reply and help - plenty for me to think about. Do any other people have an opinion or other theories / ideas?

Thanks.

Bryan.

Actually I was refering to a literal energy but i wasnt even thinking about the spiritual aspect. I believe it could be either or a combination of both. It's sort of nice to think maybe its like paint when you mix the two colors you get a totally different color. Spiritual energy and Pysical energy combining to form a new color.

Since you were kind enough to try and help me, I will do the same for you :) .
I hope these help.

Take Care,

This one deals just with colors and spirit:

I too think that more than 99 percent of the orbs are a case of mistaken identity, but I am VERY impressed by the ones which are viewable on "multiple cameras and camcorders from different angles." I envy you for the privilege of having seen them. I do not have I any advice for you on phenomena that appear to be authentic, but having been a photographer and writer in the Army for five years -- during which time I routinely scanned, enlarged and edited photos in Adobe Photoshop and Quark Express -- I do have some advice on spotting the frauds: The phenomena that are undoubtedly due to moisture on the lens will be extremely angular when enlarged. That is to say, they are generally six or eight-sided and may come as double images, with one laying on top of but slightly off-center of the one beneath it, as moisture bends the rays of light in the same way that a glass of clear water will bend the image of a pencil placed in the glass.

Sadly, these appear to be comprise the vast, overwhelming majority of images that excite unknowing people, which literally causes me to cringe every time I hear them fawning over their photos. Being the sort of person who cannot bear to tell little children that Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny do not really exist (Ohhhhh, I know I am going to catch some flak for that statement ), I have to force myself to walk away from these people without saying a word.

That said, here in Savannah the guests on my ghost tour have also come back with images that I cannot explain, but I fall just short of labeling them "paranormal" until I learn more. The images generally occur in photos shot at the cemetery that opened in 1750 when this place was still a British colony. I have seen fuzzy pink and blue orbs low to the ground; some of them in front of grave markers, some not. A few do NOT appear angular when enlarged (alongside many which do, of course), but I still hesitate to render a judgment. I have also seen photos covered with what I can only describe as a translucent wave, as though the photo was shot through a clear plastic curtain, rippling in a breeze.

The "wave" has occurred in photos shot at the cemetery and in front of the fountain in Forsythe Park, beneath which there is a catacomb filled with victims of the last Yellow Fever epidemic that occurred here in the late 19th century. If anyone has any advice on that phenomena, I will gladly listen.

And, unlike myself, don't be afraid to speak the truth if you know it. I'll carry on.

Hello Bradley - thanks for the support and the valuable information on angular shaped orbs ; its puts 2 of my "unknowns" into perspective now which is gratifying.

My arguement on moisture laden "orbs" was always that the orb is dust. Dust would sink to the ground faster as it was heavier and thus an orb would appear on infra red sourced cameras. Even better if it gets caught in an air current , then it moves.

The orb im refering to however doent exhibit this tendancy as it actually moves back on it self along the same flight trajectory (more or less) and was caught on digital camera and on several cam corders.

Please send me your email address and ill send footage so you can assess for yourself,

All the best and again thanks to all for their help so far,

Bryan.

If you check out my brief online meetup album at:

One of the photo's you will see will be of what appears to be some wicked looking orbs taken by my son, he was horrified. However, as soon as I seen them I knew they were rain orbs, but the picture is an excellent example of what an orb should not look like :P .

One of our members Susan has a really neat looking orb picture at :

Would love to have seen the photos, but the link is now broken, and ghost meetup group #176 is awaiting new leadership. If you get it up and going, post us the link again, we'd love to check it out!

Thanks!! -- Brynn
