Orbs are spherical “lights” or balls of energy, though usually not visible with the naked eye, they typically appear on film or in photographs.

Apparent in variable size, most often they appear in shades of white; however, on rare occasions

they may take on different colors.

One of the leading theories concerning “what orbs are”, is that they are not the spirit at all. 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.

Energy, like a globule of water in zero gravity, is drawn together to form a sphere. Orbs may also have something to do with human bio energy & may be an effect of the energy of the aura. People have certainly seen orbs around other people's heads when making a spirit link.
