Today’s interesting fact has to do with magnetic fields and the eye.

Many animals can sense magnetic fields.

There are many different methods that have been developed by nature to allow animals to do this.

One system is a chemical that is found in the eyes of many animals, as diverse as mammals, birds, and insects.

It has been noticed that high power electric transmission lines seems to affect animals with this system.

Recently this chemical has been found to exist in human eyes, although no one has yet determined if humans can detect magnetic fields.

But I had a thought, when I had learnt this.

A small number of people I know seem to be affected by high power electric lines.

They complain of headaches, spots in their vision, and poor eye sight after going under one of these lines or electrical pylons.

Add this to the aura that some individuals claim to be able to see.

Someone I know, lets call them S, regularly visits one of these individuals who claims to see auras.

In a recent visit this individual noted that S's aura was out of its normal shape.

It just so happened that S had just gone under one of those lines.

Could it be that some people can see magnetic lines and see them as auras, because of this chemical?

Watch this space, and if I read anything more on this subject, I will post it here.
