    Very cool explanation, thanks! I think dramatization is the culprit here, introducing noise to the facts.

    Your visualization of a type of visual aura is distinctly different from when I have them, which is very cool because another response tells us they do recognize it! Mine is more in the negative space around the ‘aura’ you shared, rotating on some pulse-timing (about half of the heart BPM ), counterclockwise (am a right-handed human), like a white bolt lightning-wave circling around the middle, covering about half the circle at any time. I’ll try and recreate the visuals sometime.

    Thanks again for elaborating on this subject, you expanded my understanding :-).

      Absolutely, and they don’t have to look the same for sure, or even involve visual parts of the brain at all for some people. I don’t get them, but I think the various illustrations of them are quite interesting.
