The above pictures are in Salem Massachusetts in 2005. If you have not been there, YOU MUST GO!!!!! The history is unreal. The first picture is of an orb we caught late at night around 1:00 in an old cementary where several accussed witches were barred back in 1692-1693. The second pic is the orb that I croped and blew up. Very interesting to me....It looks like you can almost "see" the engry just swirling around in it. An orb is a spiritual orb represented the soul of a departed person. The soul being the essence of who they were in life, complete with their intelligence, their emotions and their personality. The orb or sphere is common in our every day lives.
I have posted just a little about the Salem Witch Trials for your FYI and love to hear what you think about my "orb" pictures. :)
The best-known trials were conducted by the Court of Oyer and Terminer in 1692 in Salem Town. Over 150 people were arrested and imprisoned, with even more accused but not formally pursued by the authorities. All twenty-six who went to trial before this court were convicted. The four sessions of the Superior Court of Judicature in 1693, held in Salem Village, but also in Ipswich, Boston and Charlestown, produced only three convictions in the thirty-one witchcraft trials it conducted. The two courts convicted twenty-nine people of the capital felony of witchcraft. Nineteen of the accused, fourteen women and five men, were executed by hanging.[1] One man, Giles Corey, refused to enter a plea and was crushed to death under heavy stones in an attempt to force him to do so. At least five more of the accused died in prison.
