Orbs are believed (by many) to be ghosts in the form of balls of light. They are life forms that travel in groups and are believed to be the human soul or life force of those that once inhabited a physical body here on earth. Psychics claim to communicate with them on a regular basis, and paranormal investigators encounter them quite frequently. It is said that they are those spirits that have willingly stayed behind because they feel bound to their previous life or previous location for whatever reason. It should be said that the majority of us, when we die, proceed gladly and willingly to the next level of existence after saying our good-byes, which means we are off to the spirit world. Then again, as stated, a select few elect to stay behind because of a refusal to move on. Apparently the longer they stay behind, the harder it is to find their way to the next level, which again, is the spirit world.

Another leading theory concerning what orbs are is that the orb is the energy being transferred from a source (i.e. power lines, heat energy, batteries, people, etc) to the spirit so they can manifest. This may not even be a conscious thing the spirit is doing, just a natural way they get their energy. This would explain why the orbs are round balls. According to the laws of Physics, energy being transferred like that would assume is natural shape of a sphere. This theory can also be tied into the EMF readings we get during spirit activity.

My Thoughts

• I am happy to go with any of these theories they both sound possible to me.
• There are a large number of Orb photographs taken around children - is this the guardian angel or the imaginary friend that children are more in tune with than adults?
• Why has almost all of my own personal Orb photos been captured in places which have a reputation of having paranormal activity?
