Brocken spectres

close

Despite what it says in the literature Brocken spectres can be experienced at quite low altitudes . A bit like a rainbow it's a combination of mist ,sunlight and an observer in the right position. Could well explain many a sighting of angels ,giants etc. And then here is always the story of the Big Grey Man of Ben Macdhui who has caused people to flee from the hill . One high ranking buddhist chappie actually thought it was a Bodhisattva .

(Thank you for kindly not pointing out my ignorant spelling mistake. It has been changed).
I suppose you just need a low angle of light and some mist. So it could happen anywhere misty?

someone stood on mine once at a festival.
I was quite upset for a while but then I thought:

'hold on a minute , I'm the Son of God!"

and I felt much better - but also everything LOOKED better - I mean I could see all sorts of alignments and connections between things that I never saw before.....it was amazing and I became a Pagan Christian straight away and everything is kool now..

all you need is love
