Hope you don't mind me asking this question here, it seems to fit in with the subject!
About 3 or 4 months now, been seeing brillant Flashes of Light for only a second! I didn't say anything at first to anyone, I was rather nervous something was wrong with my eyes, but their isn't, I had that checked!

Then without saying anything others came to me asking for me to pray about something, which they too were seeing the flashes. My Son, Dad, & Friends. Well, since they too were seeing this, I was relieved it just wasn't me. Then we wondered if it was just here in Mass. But then My Son gets a call from His Friend in England, and she said the strangest thing is happening there, that many are seeing this Brillant Flash of Light, mostly all see it like resembling Lightning and sometimes a brillant blue flash- The days when it happens can be Sunny & Bright or dull & rainy, ( of course on rainy days one might say lightning, this isn't, it's different) it doesn't matter what the weather is, & this also has occured to us all even at night too! The Flash is so brillant it will fill your room. So it's not just in Mass but reported in England as well so far.

Yesterday I saw it once again, so Did my Dad who was with me, and another Women who we didn't know us as well, had happened on our way out to the car which was parked at a store! I turned and asked Dad what his thoughts about this were, and he was wondering about the Activity of the Sun Flares latley. I said good point, I will ask my friends on ATS, I know someone on here must know something about the current status of the Sun & if their are any more Sun spots that are emitting any flares at us.

Last year, I heard of reports of people seeing brilliant flashes of blue light - several reports were said, many were driving when this occured which blinded them for a second. At that time, my Son had called me in a panic, when that happened to him for the first time, riding on a highway one night! At that time I hadn't seen any!
The reports then didn't last long, & I believe final news reports attributed it to the Sun.
Now I'm wondering if the last few months, is this the same thing that has been occurring? Their hasn't been a week that hasn't gone by, that we haven't seen them, its just been non-stop at the present time!
Any input?
Thanks Angel

What do you see? is it a localised flash, or is the whole sky illuminated with no apparent source for the light?

I've never heard of it, and not heard of any over here in UK, have you any links?

The only time I saw a series of bright flashes was in 1981 North Wales UK. at night time we saw massive semicircles of white light arcing into the sky from the horizon. At the time we put it down to a powerline must have fallen over and was sparking. But later i heard of UFO's which regularly did this in Camarthen Bay which was no where near where we saw them but it's possible it was the UFO in another location. However the light was not in the Sky, it was coming from the horizon so possibly ground level.

I have no idea what your flashes could be. Perhaps a 24/7 video camera set up viewing the sky could be an idea.


Hi, the only way I can describe it, I would say, is that all I see at that instance is the Brillant Flash which is so blinding at that second, I see nothing else. So I cannot say that the whole sky is illuminated or not, but it sure is totally illuminated right in front of me!
Whoever mentioned the cell phone tower, their were no towers at all nearby at all! And I had no feeling of accension or any spiritual enlightment within my body at that time. What I can tell you though, is that everytime it has happened, I'm startled greatly, and slightly nervous lol because it's so intense & unusual.
Correct, I see no apparent source from the light! Someone on here asked if I had links from what I read before on it! No, I don't but I will try to see if I can remember where I read about them, I have a few places I will check and let you know if it's still on their site!
Hmmmm you mentioned Video camera, good idea! If I see it happen again at night in my bedroom for instance, I will set up a video camera. I really thought they had stopped before the last time, because their was a short time that went by when nothing happened then BAM another one!

That's what I think it really gets you, seems to happen when you least expect it! I remember one night it was one right after another, I would say three that night! Everyone was asleep but me, and I really got spooked by it! See the reason I was so spooked, because my whole room would light up, and my shades were all down and one can only see outside because the shades don't lay flat up against the window, so you can see a little of the outside from the edges of the shades. Hope I explained that part clear enough lol! But now that others have seen it with me at the same time, I'm relieved it's not my eye's or something else wrong lol! For instance nothing so far today! Thanks for all your help and idea's!

I've had these too, i remember reading in a UFO book that they are sometimes the cones or rods in your eye being temporarrily unrecognised by the brain, or something to do with nerve endings...sorry to be so unclear. Apparently if you suffer any head trauma they should be increased short-term.

All i could find on them was this info, however it does not describe my experience of them at all.


What are flashes?

Flashes are the experience of brief sensations appearing to be bright lights at the edge of vision. Flashes are usually noticed all the way to one side and are more prominent in the dark or when going from a well-lighted area to a darker area. Usually the flashes have no specific shape, but can sometimes have the appearance of lightning bolts. The experience of flashing lights, especially in conjunction with new floaters, can be an indication of a posterior vitreous detachment, retinal tear, or a retinal detachment. The flashing lights represent the release of an electrical signal from the nerve tissue of the retina when there is pulling on the retina from a vitreous gel that is separating from the retina. If the pulling is especially strong, or at the site of a weakness in the retinal tissue, a retinal tear may occur. Any experience of new flashes should be reported to your ophthalmologist and he or she will usually perform a prompt dilated exam of the retina.

Some flashing light phenomena involve the experience of a very distinct, often multicolored or fiery jagged line of light with or without an adjacent black spot in the vision. Such "fortification scotomas" may start in the center of vision and then spread to the side, or start at the side in the first place. Often, if you carefully close one eye and then the other, you will notice that the flashes are actually going on in both eyes, but are just more prominent in one or the other. This type of flashing light typically lasts from 5 to 30 minutes, and may or may not be followed by a bad headache. These flashing lights are different from the flashing lights caused by tugging on the retina described above, and represent the eye portion of a migraine (with or without a migraine headache). This type of flashing lights is usually not serious, but if it is the first time you are experiencing them, or you have any doubts, you should contact your ophthalmologist.

How are flashes treated?

If you are experiencing new flashes, it is important to undergo a dilated exam of the eye with a careful exam of the far peripheral edge of the retina. It is at this very edge of the retina, which is thinner than the more central part of the retina, where most retinal tears occur. The ophthalmologist will often use a device called a scleral depressor to gently indent the side of the eyeball in order to bring the peripheral edge of the retina into better view. If no retinal tear or retinal detachment is found, then no treatment is usually indicated. However, after the initial exam, it is helpful for you to screen yourself periodically by carefully observing the world around you with one eye at a time. Look for new symptoms such as increased floaters, new or increased flashes or flash intensity, or a shadow. If any of these additional symptoms occur, you need to return to your ophthalmologist for a repeat dilated exam, immediately.
