So, after I have begun watching Most Haunted on Youtube, it has gotten me thinking about things in my past and recent-ish events.

In the past, with an ex girlfriend of mine, we decided to do some amateur 'ghost-hunting' after discovering that there were three distinct areas around my parents' house that at night time, and even during the day, that my dog when going even near them, would whimper and cower, trying to get away from them, which is odd, because he was a Golden Labrador and usually very friendly and happy.

So during these 'ghost-hunting' sessions, at the first area where my dog would cower, which was a street near my parents' house, we picked up lots and lots of little white orb

The second one which was my high-school oval,. we picked up not so many orbs, but they were larger and brighter ones there.

And the third one, which was a small playground near my parents' house, the one where I used to go to go on the swings, smoke a cigarette and think for a while. We picked up only two orbs, but they were massive and bright red.

At the time, my ex girlfriend told me that red meant evil, aggressive, which obviously freaked the hell out of me.

But come to think of things from my past, what I've read on a site about orbs, I am more inclined to believe that information...here it is:

White or Silver Orbs
Spiritually, white or silver is associated with spirituality and connection with a higher source. Some investigators believe orbs that are either white or silver in appearance are an indication that a spirit is trapped on this plane. It may also be a sign that the spirit is there to offer protection to the people in the area. White energy is typically perceived as highly positive in nature.

 

Red or Orange Orbs
From a spiritual perspective, red and orange colors are associated with safety and security, as well as a sense of belonging. While these warm colors are often associated with strong emotions such as anger and passion, this may not be the case when it comes to ghost orbs. Some paranormal investigators believe that a red or orange orb is a sign that an entity has assumed the role of a protector. This could be someone who was charged in life to keep watch or be a caretaker.

Another page from following a link on that link posted above:

• Red: Anger or passion
• White: Protection of holy light and power
  

Meaning of Orb Size
The size of an orb is often believed to be significant. Some believe the size indicates the level of soul evolution - the bigger the orb, the more spiritually evolved the ghost is or was at time of death. Others believe the size of the orb indicates the power of the emotion. A huge red orb would indicate a very angry spirit or even a demon.

So, sadly as this was about 10 years ago, I no longer have the photos, but the white orbs were small, some even barley visible, but the red ones were rather large. I'd say about the size of a cat's head, maybe half..

How-ever, about two weeks later, I find out my ex-girlfriend had been cheating on me, using me and abusing me all along. She soon leaves me because her dad 'made' her choose between me or her cat, but I think that was a cop-out (though her dad was a right royal b@$$T@RD)..so it is possible I was being protected and not having evil spirits after me.

Another thing, apparently, because I am not cis-gender and not with the sexual norms (I am transgender and panromantic), I am more susceptible to the spirit realm and I am more sensitive to it.

So my question is, are there any other believers in the paranormal and spiritual here? Have you had any similar experiences or heard of anything?
