In using exercises to see auras I learned to softly focus the gaze and look without seeing.
In applying the same soft focus to stars a strange phenomena occurs! The star appears to wander around the sky in a random fashion.
And, there is a show of hundreds of other stars coming into vision faintly in the background.
Try this out for yourself.

Q Has any one else experienced this?
Has any one an explanation of what might be happening?

Dear Michael,

In relation to the question on "Dancing Stars" 15/11/01, I have georgian style windows (window divided into squares) in my house and noticed one night that the stars were moving rapidly from square to square. I stayed in the one position for a few minutes to make sure it wasn't a trick of the eyes. Since then I have spent many nights lying watching the stars move from one square to another. Unfortunately I have no idea how this happens!

Thank you Tracy - this is interesting.
The other night I was looking at the stars with a low focus and sometimes they would just disappear and other times there were many more of them. The plot thickens.

Answer:
There is a technique to train yourself to see clairvoyantly; it involves holding a soft focus on the sky, on a clear day, preferably on a sunny day. Fix your gaze well away from the sun to avoid blinding yourself and focus your gaze softly on any part of the sky close to a tree line on the horizon. You will notice after a few minutes, hundreds of small 'globules', dancing around the sky, they are translucent and again you'll notice they seem to disappear and emerge from the tree line itself. Please note I am not talking of the dust particles on the eye which can be seen also in a soft gaze.
This seems to be the same thing happening as in the above technique, these globules are carriers of universal energy and are also themselves universal energy. The globules also reflect light, this may be what is happening with the 'dancing stars', however the energy globules are usually most active on a bright sunny or after a thunderstorm. The globules would be slow moving at night. For those who have seen the dancing stars, try it out the above technique and see if it's similar as the dancing stars.
