Whirling rainbow appears

The whirling rainbow or the sunbow was what astounded many in Nigeria on Tuesday. Many rushed out at about 1.00 p.m. to view the spectacular event. But the blaze of the sun stopped many from a direct gaze.

Scientists say that this isn’t technically a rainbow since it is on the opposite side of the sky as the sun, so they call it a halo. Whatever it is, it is marvelous to see.
According to lifeheartandsoul blog One source says: “While meteorologists have a physical understanding of the circular rainbow around the sun, wisdom keepers of the Americas and Tibet have complementary spiritual understandings about this dramatic omen around the Sun which is known as the Whirling Rainbow or the Sunbow.
For some traditional native people, the Sunbow or Whirling Rainbow is considered to be a sign from Creator, marking a time of great change, or transition on the Earth. This full-circle rainbow around the Sun, some elders say, can be understood as a sign to people of the necessity to live a life in respect and harmony with all the creations that make life possible: plants, animals, water, minerals, fire, wind and human beings.”
