Orbs
The prophets conference, Sedona AZ
May 2007

featuring
Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D, Bill (William) Tiller, Ph.D., Joan Ocean,
JZ Knight, Klaus Heinemann, Ph.D., Martin Gray,
Miceal Ledwith, Ph.D., You, The Orbs

THE ORBS SEDONA PROPHETS CONFERENCE is an avenue to flesh out the orbs enigma, and in so doing perhaps assist in the manifestation of a more evolved human species. Ancient prophets and seers, from literally all traditions, have foretold that a time would come when we would witness and possibly move through something extraordinary into realms of being beyond our dominated and conditioned limits that we call our material reality. We have been told that there will be signs available for all to easily experience pointing the way into a hopeful new era of life.

We might feel very sure that there is no more to reality than the material world in which we live, but we cannot prove that this is the case. Theoretically there could be other realms, other dimensions, as all religious traditions and quantum physics alike maintain. No empirical evidence rules out these realms. No empirical evidence rules out the orbs no matter how hard the so called “debunkers” stretch to negate their existence.

5. crop circles are another
fascinating subject.

I also saw a video taken by someone in the UK at 5am in the morning - these circles were in the making and it only took seconds - all Sacred Geometry. So beautiful.
This, somewhat strange man (at least my impression) Mr. George Green, says that he was told the crop circles are being made by ET's to help our planet, and that the exact mechanics and reasonings behind it - we should not concern ourselves with. Just appreciate. :shrug:

Orbs in Japan are called "Hito Dama" Person Orb or "Hi No Tama" meaning Balls of Fire - they do attribute it to souls. A regular on Lafcadio Hearn's "Kwaidan", a compilation of oral ancient ghost stories. :)
Some scientists explained it as burning phosphorus from bones buried at cemetaries - well, very strained explanation to me. I want to say show me what the ignition source is....

here is what I found on that:
Hito-dama

The spirits of the newly dead are said to take the form of great floating balls of fire, glowing in amber, pale blue or ruddy-white like the moon, sometimes dragging long blue flickering tails behind them. A hito-dama is often seen shortly before a sick person dies, leaving the weakening body and heading off for the next stage of existence. They often fall to earth or fade away shortly after they are seen, leaving a foamy or slimy residue on whatever they touch.

7. Some clairvoyants say they can see the soul leaving the body.
Edited on Mon Feb-19-07 04:04 PM by cassiepriam
Which would be the hito dama. Very interesting.

Yes I don't buy the burning bone theory either.

Crops circles are so interesting, yes they are done very quickly obviously not human in origin. They are beautiful and getting more complex every year.

The orbs that were near the crop circle in the video that I saw looked just like the ones in NJ Cher's pics. Amazing.

8. maybe they gathered there
gratitude? celebration? interesting.

Dr. Villoldo, Four Winds Society has an interesting chapter in his book "Shaman Healer Sage", where he talks about helping someone die - he did not describe it as an orb then, but he said it flew out of the window.

9. Not sure what the orbs are...
the ones making the crop circles, or just watching, or celebrating it?

Yes most clairvoyants describe the spirit as rising out of the body just before or close to death.
Have not heard it described before as looking like an orb.

10. I have pictures of some great orbs! I thought my camera was...
malfunctioning until I saw this site. Mine were taken in the Vatican, at a private pallazo in Rome, and various other places. I don't know how to upload them to the site. Any help would be appreciated!

13. Oh my - any non-spiritual explanation for those orbs?
Is Obama protected?
How long has this phenomenon been noticed? Were there any orbs in old JFK photos?

14. I just read the Yahoo article on Obama
It said that rain had started to fall. Those streaks of light look like rain, not the round orbs that are sometimes seen in photos.

15. Sorry ...
I forgot to comment. I knew it was raining. There are over 100 pictures, and I didn't see any other with the 'orb-like' rain. Seeing it just made me think of this thread. You had to have an internet generated ticket to get in. He was right in the crowd. I didn't see any body guards, but surely he has some.

in another thread that when she visualizes him she sees him covered in a field of spiky white light.

19. hey rum
It looks very much to me that there are orbs in with the dust.

Somethings about the orbs that I've noticed is that there are more questions than people who know exactly what they are. Most other popular phenomenons, from what I've seen, have many interpretations of what they are, where they come from and why from many people, for ex. crop circles and hauntings.

But, with orbs their are mostly questions of what, where and why they are. Even people who have claimed to communicate with them still show up on boards asking questions about the orbs they've become aware of. I find that very interesting.

But, so far what I get most from different accounts of encounters are that they are entities that do not originate from this dimension (as with souls of recently departed people). Although, they seem to have recently shown up often along side ghosts or spirit apparitions in pictures.

Also, they all seem to be benevolent entities and even give spiritual insights to people who can communicate with them. There have been several threads about them on Shirley MacLaine's web site.

Here's a link to a search I did on the topic. http://shirleymaclaine.com/encounter/search.php?searchid=186165 Every interesting reading! And it looks like there may be much more info about it since the last time I was there.

21. thanks, I did not realize S Maclaine had such an extensive site
one of these days I will explore it more....

Your comment about another dimension is quite intriguing.

In the book "Mad Bear"(medicine man) he talks about small light beings and something like fairies/gnomes. He even had a little skull of the little beings. He did not reveal much to the author. But the light beings may be orbs. I never had the impression he was speaking of souls, but other beings. As a shaman he communicated with all of them.

Since the picture above is from an Egyptian cave I thought it very interesting. Quite a few ancient and somewhat newer cultures have buried their dead in caves around the globe. A back to the womb (mother Earth) concept. Then the soul departs into another dimension.

If those are orbs or light beings, and not related to human souls, could their connections or attractions be rather to this planet than to "us", and we just see a glimpse of another dimension here?

The more I think about it, that conference must really be interesting.
