"Prana Sparkles" and other Etheric Visions

Sometimes I can see these little tiny swirly sparkle things everywhere in my field of vision, especially if I'm looking at a clear blue sky or if there's a lot of sunlight in a room. I was just reading up on Kundalini awakening and some people claim that what I'm seeing are actually prana sparkles. Does anyone else get these? Is it just some weird optical thing? Eye doctors and scientists say it's just the blood moving through/against the back of your eye. I'm inclined to believe this, EXCEPT that I never saw them before until one morning when I was 18, during my first "real" experience with psychedelics, which happened to be absolutely amazing. It was a combination of mescaline and MDMA, supposedly. (Please note that my experience in this realm is limited to what I would term "dabbling." I think drugs are fascinating but they're not the way to go for me personally, at this point in my life.) Anyway the morning sun was coming into my friend's bedroom and we were all sitting there and I looked up and I was like "What the hell are all those little sparkly things?" ... And that was that -- I never stopped seeing them. So I guess I either fried something in my brain/eyes, or I had some kind of legit "awakening" experience. I'm fine with either one.

...

HEY -- this is interesting. During that same trip, I had one really persistent closed-eye vision the whole night, of this really weird and beautiful and HUGE eye. It was upside down, and it had a geometric or kaleidoscopic or, as I then termed it, "stained glass" look to it. Anyway I was just poking around on that same Kundalini page and apparently other people have experienced very similar visions, sometimes in conjunction with a UFO sighting? Creepy!

The other thing I want to throw out there in case anyone else has had a similar experience is this ball of light/blue pearl thing. I saw this one when I was 17. It was the middle of the night, and I was sitting on the floor in my bedroom reading about God and the universe. I was feeling deeply moved, and I asked to be given a sign or a confirmation of some sort. Within a couple of minutes, this ball of whitish blue light, about the size of a plum, appeared out of nowhere and went whizzing right past my head. It then disappeared. The entire experience lasted maybe 2 or 3 seconds, but it was VERY real and I've never before or since seen anything like it.

Anyone else?

Well...

I've tripped a good bit, but not regularly by any standard. I'm not an "acid head" like some I've known.

While sober, I often see/"pheel" cats in my vicinity that aren't there... they lurk in the corners of my vision sometimes. When in between the waking and dreaming world, I'm often visited by cats I've known and loved that have moved on to the next world... I feel them curling up on my chest, but if I open my eyes to look, they're not there.

Last few psychedelic experiences I've had (LSD and MDMA) have been No Boundary experiences... though with the 'cid one of my sharper-dressed and mischievous friends turned into Satan, scaring the crap out of me.

One thing that MDMA does for me is to link me intensely to the Zeitgeist. I'm still ME, I don't lose identity, but I can feel the flow between people and my intuition takes off, giving me little gifts of insight here and there about social things. Occasionally I get inspired and have to write.

I share a funnier one with you: I call it the Potty Poem.

We all sit upon a Throne
Of porcelain, flesh and bone
And from this cold and mighty seat
We fill the world with shit replete
And from it's grown our daily bread
And grain to keep the cattle fed
But do you sit there, all alone
Wondering why shit happens, and where it's gone?

I get these all the time and I don't think it's bloodflow. It could be DMT activity in the brain, but it was brought about as a result of meditation along with all sorts of hypnagogia, kundalini, etc.

Ive seen these sparkles long before I became closely aquainted with the delights of acid etc, and when outside in the summer nearly everyone I know can see them too when pointed out; tiny little sparkly sperm-like comets, winking in and out of existence and very energetic when its a really nice day. I first saw them as a young kid while on holiday with my mum and dad in the Alps (we all saw them when I mentioned it so I dont think you have to be especially psychic like some people claim).

Next time you get on a plane, take the window seat and see what they are like at altitude, awesomely active!

They are called "Orgones"
Kate Bush wrote a song called Cloud Busting. Its about the man who claims to have discovered them.
I see them too. Especially in the Alps AND by the Ocean in California where I now live. I previously lived in london and they were not visible. (I had seen them before in Canada ) . \
I think it might be prana as said before. ( or aliens LOL) be well Tara
