This is the scene a week ago today at 5:30 a.m. in White Sands, New Mexico. Most of us awoke to alarm clocks at 3:45 a.m. (that’s 2:45 a.m. if you’re still on Arizona time, but who’s counting?).

Families are already gathered to have some fun sliding down the gypsum dunes. The bright light in the upper left is the full moon.

Hot Air Balloon pilots and their crews gather to hear the latest weather reports and restrictions when flying over White Sands.

Three  biodegradable pie balls are released for the pilots’ reading of the wind.

And, the show  begins.

Too windy for the blue and white balloon.

We’ll be taking off now.

Time to get to work. My pilot has been watching the balloons on this windy day, not all were able to ascend. But he’s decided we can get ready for flight. In my next post I’ll be chasing the Blue Moon.

Orb Quest Tonight

It has been too long since I went questing for orbs, but with a friend in town we treated ourselves to a flash adventure on the town.

Neighborly greetings were shared with the orbs.

Murmuring orbs in trees say goodnight.

Thank goodness for friends who say yes! to an evening’s quest for orbs.

Orbs of a Lingering Moon

It was the night of a lingering Full Moon.

If you squint your eyes you almost see orbs.

orbs(c)cheyennemacmasters2013

Yet orbs are there to see.

orbs(c)cheyennemacmasters2013

Orbs dance into view.

orbs(c)CheyenneMacMasters2013

Ghostly in their appearance.

You’ve attracted light beings.

They send their brightest.

To shine upon you.

Lower your contrasts, and open your shadows, and you will see.

Orbs Attend the Night

OrbPhoto@CheyenneMacMasters2013

It was a night of quiet celebration, the birth of a young man 31 years ago.

2OrbsCMacMasters

Poetry was attended by orbs unheralded yet rejoiced.

3OrbsCMacMasters

Realities were questioned as Castaneda was lauded.

4OrbsCMacMasters

It is the Moon rising in the East in this reality of seen and unseen.

5OrbsCMacMasters

Lower your contrast and open your shadows and you will see the unseen.

Night of Orbs

1orbsCMacMasters

It was a night like any other night at the ranch. Dark. Perfect for an orb quest.

2orbsCMacMasters

Here’s one that just got away. It shone brilliantly in my view screen as my camera lit up the night.

3orbsCMacMasters

Orbs in the night.

And then it happened.

4orbsCMacMasters

Suddenly every orb wants to know what the fuss is about.

6orbsCMacMasters

Not every night an orb gets to see a camera flash.

8orbsCMacMasters

When you quest for orbs, they like to check you out.

9orbsCMacMasters

So funny to see trees illumined when shooting blind in the night.

10orbsCMacMasters

Lower your contrast and open your shadows and you will see.

11orbsCMacMasters

Just another night at the ranch.

Guest finds Orbs in the Rain

At my recent talk and slide show about orbs at the Bisbee Library, one of the people who attended brought photos and videos of orbs she has taken at her home. Since I am still on vacation from blogging and at the same time have always welcomed guest orb photographers, this will be a good opportunity to see what others are discovering in their quests for orbs.

Introducing the orbs who appeared to Antoinette Perez:

orb photo copyright Antoinette Perez 2013

Antoinette: my 3rd photo experience with the Orbs. Was in my back yard sitting in our Patio, it was raining that day. I was very relaxed enjoying the colors of our garden. I saw the Orbs up close in my camera that was an awesome feeling that I had.

orb photo copyright Antoinetee Perez 2013 Antoinette: I had called Rev. Dottie & Al Heindl from Metamorphosis Spiritual Center to do a cleansing with burn sage to remove any negative energy around my house. That was in Feb 2013. Funny thing she didn’t feel anything negative in our home. Our youngest daughter ask me to take photos in the house to see if we can spot more Orbs. I was afraid the cleansing might had made the Orbs leave. Took a photo and there was my Orb light greenish color…..I was so happy to see them again…..LOL

orb photo copyright Antoinette Perez 2013 Antoinette: I had friends who was visiting me and was inquisitive about the Orbs and ask me to take a photo. I was so eager to show her 2 Orbs a month ago June 2013 above our coffee table. I have mentioned to you that I can speak to them and they follow my instructions.

Antoinette has also taken videos of orbs speeding through her house. It is always interesting to see how the orbs move and how frequently they appear dashing through the videos. Many thanks to Antoinette for sharing her enthusiasm for orbs with us.

Orbs and the Poets

orbsLoganDirtyVerbsPhillips(c) CheyenneMacMasters 2013

Once again, Logan Dirtyverbs Phillips brought Palabra Andante to the Bisbee Royale. Poets gathered in hopes of being one of the twelve chosen to read by lottery. Logan is a highly energetic fellow who created energy snake patterns in the air the first time I posted this event. Don’t miss him in the last photo of this post.

orbsSuziPretty (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

Suzi Pretty was her usual dry witted self who drew in the orbs as well as the crowd.

orbs SaritaGonzales (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

Sarita Gonzales, our guest star poet from Tucson. If you like peanut butter, you might not want to hear this poem. Her flawless memorization was truly a performance to appreciate. The orbs certainly found amusement in her presentation.

orbs Patricia (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

Orbs also hung on the words of Patricia’s tale of overcooked vegetables.

orbs Matt (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

Matt’s commanding read of a Geri DiGiorno poem really caught the orbs attention. They must have recognized poet laureate quality.

orbs Ruby (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

Ruby’s finely crafted poem also received orb attentiveness.

orbs Thayer (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

Thayer won the coveted baker’s dozen place at the podium with an earthy poem about God at the grocery store. Not only did the orbs line up to listen, but Logan experienced an energetic shift. What was that all about?

You Cannot See Them

orbs (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

You cannot see them

ladies walking home at night

wrapped in towels

dampening sarongs

orbs (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

You hear their laughter

and sleepy murmurs

spirits follow

listening closely

orbs (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

You cannot see them

ladies with attentive spirits

walking gliding

through the night

orbs (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013
Freshly bathed

thoughts of comforts

home draws them onward

ladies walking above

orbs (c) Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

You did not see them

Nor saw the spirits

that shadowed

wet ladies

walking home tonight.

Orbs of Truth

orb photo copyright Cheyenne MacMasters 2013

Not again,

a stranger’s eyes

regard me in a mirror

that lies.

Once again,

I inhabit a body

not mine.

We are all one.

What tripe!

We don’t know that Truth

until the body is not ours

until now.

Not now!

My body, my life.

This body, another’s life.

I do remember

my life, my body.

But that was then,

this is now.
