Have you ever wondered what these little colourful balls of light are in your picture or video’s? They are called orbs, an orb is an energetic being, something or someone from the spiritual realm. There are so many entities that we normally don’t see, such as angelic beings, our ancestors and deceased loved ones.
These spiritual beings usually need bright light or darkness to show themselves, this is easier due to the contrast. Sometimes you can see them with your own eyes when it’s really dark, or when you make a picture on a sunny day and you catch some rays of sun, that is the perfect light spectrum for them to show themselves. Sometimes when I feel a presence but don’t know for sure who it is, then I will point my camera into the light to see them. Based on the colour they present, I will know the energies they want to send me and/or who the spiritual being is.
The orbs come in all kinds of different colours. These colours are an agreed upon consensus, but its always important for you to feel the energy yourself and to consider the situation. For example, when you have a funeral of a loved one and you see an orb above their casket, it is most likely your loved one in Heaven that is there with you. Trust that when you see it, you will feel it intuitively. Don’t doubt yourself.

A black orb. Black orbs in pictures are often associated with lower vibrational energies or spirits that have not yet detached from earthly energies.

A black orb can also represent the need for protection, cleansing, and the removal of negative influences. It serves as a reminder to focus on spiritual strength, healing, and moving towards the light.
The size of the orb. The size of an orb also carries meaning. The larger the orb, the more energy and spiritual evolution it carries. A larger orb represents a stronger spiritual presence, a higher level of consciousness, and a greater amount of energy surrounding the person, place, or moment captured in the picture.
What is important to realize is that the colours and the size of an orb do carry different meanings. But the spiritual world also works in a personalized way. If you start to associate one colour with a certain spiritual being or loved one, that is the colour that will show up more often in your reality if that is the spirit you want to connect with more. The more aware you become, the more you will perceive the signs, messages, symbols, synchronicities, and orbs. Stay open, and stay in the Light. God bless.
