  Nice photos. Was a special lens used to capture this effect, or was this effect captured in real time? I would love to see a video.

  Absolutely stunning imagery! Looks a lot like overlapping dimensions to me... or eyes, beaming with pure consciousness... : )
  
  I wonder how much weather phenomenon like this will help awaken the masses... Or is it a sign of the times?
  
  Much gratitude and Blessings...<3

    this specific phenomena aspire people to divinize man to saint 'status' or 'god like' ...  as a nimbus or halo around heads, In India, China and etc .... 

    

    The pagans used it to symbolize their relationship with the sun-god: their own 'halo' of feathers representing the circle of light that distinguished the shining divinity in the sky. Indeed, people came to believe that by adopting such a 'nimbus' men turned into a kind of sun themselves and into a divine being.

    In Pre-Islamic Iranian faith of Zoroastrianism in the form of Mithraism, or the Mysteries of Mithras, the Hvrena was depicted as a halo on the head of Mithras. And then later on was adopted by Christianity, who knows why.

    another one is Sumerian Scribes of Enuma Anu Enlil - 'used sun or moon halo's' as omen to predict events: http://www.thelivingmoon.com/42stargate/03files/Sumerian_Astronomy_...

    So it is a sign of change  ... in form of beauty and inspiration?

    Thanks Tally ... ;))

      Interesting, Ara... My feeling is that the Halo is much more than a symbol... and the higher we raise our vibrations/consciousness, the brighter we will shine... and the more we'll see manifestations like these in the skies/heavens. : )

  One of the earliest scientific approaches to weather prediction occurred around 300 B.C.E., documented in Aristotle's work Aristotle tried to explain the weather through the interaction of earth, fire, air, and water. Several years after Aristotle's, book, his pupil Theophrastus put together a book on weather forecasting called The Book of Signs. Various indicators such as solar and lunar halos formed by high clouds were presented as ways to forecast the weather. The combined works of Aristotle and Theophrastus had such authority they became the main influence in the study of clouds, weather and weather forecasting for nearly 2000 years.

  In weather lore, WHEN A HALO RINGS THE MOON OR SUN, RAIN’S APPROACHING ON THE RUN.
  In Native American lore – halos is the sign of change, many traditions of weather magic indicate that a ring around the moon means bad weather, rain, or other foul atmospheric conditions are on the way.

  Here is a sample from Diosemeia: by Aratus
  And weather foul expect, when thou canst trace
  A baleful halo circling Phoebus' face
  Of murky darkness, and approaching near:
  If of two circles, fouler weather fear.

  And as you watch for halos, compare conditions with the halo's forecast:
  A ring around the moon
  May pass away soon,
  But a ring around the sun
  Gives water in the tun.
