I'm not sure if this is the best link - it's not very well spelled, I'm not sure it would count as a reputable source? Lottie10:13, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
Just a little bit of a response, out of curiosity. I see these "magical" little white dots, when I look at the sky and when it's dark. They are as described by the page you mentioned as "Scheerer's phenomenon is distinguished by the appearance of multiple, identical-looking bright dots that follow each other rapidly along the same path." The same path part is the bit I have difficulty with - I see so many of these silvery-glowing dots that I don't think I could ever confirm that they were following each other, or on the same path. They're mostly just a mess...
Perhaps the author isn't implying that they're magical, just that they use the same "type" of focus that viewing auras requires?
Either way, I agree with the deletion because I thought that was a silly section - didn't know there was a policy on it though. Lottie13:48, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
Well, the section did state "it is assumed that they are a form of information-energy that the universe uses to communicate and replenish itself.", so yeah. I just used WP:RS and WP:FRINGE as one normally takes medical literature to be more reliable than a single, fringe book.
As for what you're seeing, I'm not en expert. They could very well be white blood cells; the article describes them as moving along "squiggly lines", and if you're seeing more than one at once it could get very confusing as to where they are. And I'm not sure how likely it is that most of them would follow the same path, considering the sheer number of capillaries in the retina. They're more visible when looking at blue light, but I've also seen the same thing when not. Though, if you're seeing them when it's completely dark you're likely seeing something different (Aura (symptom) ?) -- Consumed Crustacean (talk) 20:06, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
"it is assumed that they are a form of information-energy that the universe uses to communicate and replenish itself." Eek! I must have skimmed over that, I don't think that's true at all... The dots I see do move in sqiggly lines, though it doesn't sound like it's Aura (symptom). Maybe it is the white blood cells. Hmmmm. They do look different in the dark, mostly because there's a lot more of them. How bizarre, I am clearly a freak of nature! (hehehe...) Well, thanks for your input, it's appreciated. :) Lottie10:49, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
