Examples of spirit orbs can often be seen in photos of auras. These show up as little round balls of light floating around the person’s body. Usually, they float around the head area and, in particular, around the ears and above the crown of the head. The spirit orb above the crown of the head is often thought to be the astral embodiment of the higher self.  This orb is used in some spiritual disciplines as a way of attaching the crown energy to the higher self which, in turn, talks to the highest power of all – God.

These spirit orbs are not to be confused with religious concepts, such as the Holy Spirit, although there is a Holy Spirit school of metaphysics that believes in the gifts given to people. Gifts of Holy Spirit are considered to be empathy, telepathy, clairvoyance and clairaudience. You can even attend a Holy Spirit retreat center that specializes in this type of spiritual development.

There are many different types of churches that deal with Holy Spirit possession. Usually, the spirit is summoned by the calling of “holy spirit come.”  Elizabeth Clare Prophet is an excellent example of a modern prophet who uses these types of chants in order to draw things like money and love into her life.
