Thread: am i seeing energy in the air?

I guess you missed the biology class when they were talking about the wonders of the eye.

so its just m eyes?
because thats what i allways thought till i saw that video

It's a pretty common phenomena of your retinal centers, and could be a consequence of pressure around you eye cavity, or miniscule particles of dust caught around your lens/pupil area.

I've seen it 2. I also seen a bunch of 0s and 1s like the matrix after having OBE.

I dont think the full extent of the perception can be explained by "dust", "pressure" or our physical structure... I think you should get more information on both directions, learning about anatomy and phisiology is just as useful as learning about ki and etheric energy

This out of all phenomena is one easily explained by basic bioligy. In our eyes there is rods and cones, cones detect light using green red and blue photosensitive pigments (like a tv screen) and they only work in high light conditions. These pigments dont detect the colour of light but more if light is present. therefore red light at a certain intensity can produce the same exact response in a photoreceptor as green light of a different intensity. In low light conditions our colour photoreceptors signals are amplified while they are technically not recieving enough or accurate information as to which colour is being detected, therefore many of the photoreceptors will send out false information to your brain creating a haze of red, green and blue dots.

Im not saying there is no possibility for some spiritual visible energy to be in the air but this is definetely not one of them.

Biology is cool, buuuuuuut! People who engage in this kind of "focusing practices" are perfectly able to see all kinds of curious things, even in broad daylight, when the seeing conditions are adequate for "appropiate" eye perception. Have you ever tried sitting in front of a mirror with a relaxed gaze?
Im not saying the scientific method is useless, Im very fond of it, but it shuts the door to everything which does not come from the discursive state of mind, and that state of mind does not cover all the gamut of possible experiences which are valid knowledge about the world.

Indeed, I believe somehow science could explain everything, but our valid knowledge about the world hasn't fully developed yet so ruling out theories that haven't been disproven would be ignorant. In this case the static which he describes is most definetely not energy (one of the things science does explain) but I know of a few peculiar things that havent been explained by science like why sometimes curtains of light form in our eyes near sources of water.

How about this, some of the static is biological, but that does not mean a visual effect very similar to it but responding to a energy of some kind is not also there. I can control and shift these static patterns, there fore I draw the conclusion that my experiences involve more than my eyes and static impulses. After decades I have a extremely high degree of control over this. I do think some of the things people see could be retinal, but clearly other things can be viewed that look similar, but are something harder to explain than that.

It doesn't seem plausible that the retina would react differently to areas with higher EM activity. And yet energy becomes more visible in these conditions.

Well think of it this way, is there a higher probability that there is an entire form of energy that no computer or detector has ever sensed except for the brain, or is it more likely that these effects are created by your brain and therefore you can control them. The fact that you say you can control the visions actually proves that it is more likely a biological thing.

My own feeling is that the aura vision or energy sense does not arise form the retina at all. I believe that it is appearing as if it is retinal due to a type of synastesia. I honestly believe we have a sense devoteed to this type of energy, but because it is something we rarely deal with, prior to meditation or similar, it gets mistranslated as a visual thing. Here is an example. When viewing auras, which appear as some form of visual component best described as a distortion, the view of objects behind the aura are not distorted. I am saying, the presence of auras does not change the visual images normally present, as if the aura are being interpettted 100% aside from the visual.

I think what ur talking about is visual snow, i have the same thing since i was a child.

Visual snow - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

People confuse this a lot with flooters as many doctors/people don't know about this, or even to go as far as 'energy'

What u see is particles of dust illuminated by light as the eye is changing fast light conditions'or when the eyes are out of focus.

or visual snow too.

Its not just your eyes you could also see dense energies and electro magnetic activity like static and illuminates from the sun and in the dark I see energy all the time its just speed up matter, I also see a light in my head when I close my eyes once in a while.

Watch Alex Collier ufo hypothesis 2 a video from 94' that talks about 2013 we evolve to the density of 5th and we become energybodies in a lucid dreamstate but being awake and it is the matter around us speeding up and becomeing a higher frequency of energy/light.

What you are most likely seeing are the white blood cells passing through your retina. Its the same thing you see when you "see spots" from standing up too fast. Next time you see it, try to watch specific dots and notice that they follow the same paths every time they appear. They are easiest to see when there is light but still high contrast, like looking up at a blue sky during the day.

ok that too.

they are alot smaller than that, to small to see thier paths

i have floaters aswell, they are lots bigger and kinda look like aboriginal art floating around my eyes

From the article "No etiology for visual snow has been identified, and anecdotal reports point to a multitude of associated conditions, possibly rendering it a non-specific symptom."


I will agree that what we are talking about fits in with the title "Visual Snow", but having a name for it does not mean it is not caused by an awareness of energy. They do not know what causes it!!!


How many of you can see energy or auras, and want to take the side that it is not energy we see with Visual Snow? Because if you do not see the stuff, you are a poor judge for what this experience really is. If science does not know why it happens, and it only happens to some people, and those people often say it is them seeing energy,,,,, how would anyone know it is not true. So, I will call it Visual Snow,,, and only go so far as to claim, it is only an opinion with no basis, to say it is not energy. Oh, and I do not mean Ekyu, just anyone who wants to flat out say "It is not"

Sorry if I sounded scolding or anything... Peace and Love

My last post was probably a little bit wrong, sorry if i offended anybody.
But im open minded about it being some form of energy, but also skeptical think that's a healthy approach for something like this.

From my experience with visual snow, it's kinda hard to say. At first i thought it was energy aswell im not gonna lie. But there are so many other answers laying around. we should take a look at those aswell.
