I live in Northern Alberta, and have the privilege of watching the Northern Lights from my backyard. They are so awe inspiring that I never tire of watching them, and still tear up at their magnificent beauty. They really do look like spirits at times! I've seen angels, birds that look like a Phoenix, dragons, a mother holding her baby, a Chief in his regalia, and more. It always feels like a blessing is being bestowed upon me, to witness such stunning displays. It reminds me I am just a speck of cosmic dust. To appreciate my spark of existence in this ancient universe.
So lucky. I'm in southern Oregon and hope to see them just once someday. Have a good week
Beautiful.
I remember the first time I saw the northern lights in Aberdeen Scotland. They are known as The Heavenly Dancers around here due to the song ‘the northern lights of old aberdeen’. I like the thought of Heaven shining through the waters above the firmament. It is a sight to see.
Amazed how many idiots there are
Would love to visit Canada one day
You're welcome anytime 😊
My favourite UA-camr for listening to while walking.
Good morning, sir. Watching from Kelowna British Columbia Canada
🇨🇦👍
Absolutely fascinating.. I remember when I was younger my family and I saw them once, having never seen anything like I before. We live in Southeast Kentucky. It was magical. Now I watch them on live streams. Thank God for UA-cam. Now I can watch them whenever I want and learn more about Canadian folklore. Especially First Nations. Love it. Thank you for your hard work on this channel.
Thank you Hammerson! I just love the Native folklore stories. Thanks for all your hard work and research in bringing these outstanding gems to us. Love light and blessings from your Southern neighbor in Michigan.
Top tier underrated UA-cam channel! I really appreciate all your videos, and I applaud you for your last piece about adre no chrome. Thank you sir!
always fascinating to here the tribal lore of our neighbors to the north.
I Thank You Hammerson Excellent, well done and Narration. 👍
Greetings from England hammerson, and of course,,thank you for your fantastic content!excellent brother✌🏻
Keep up the good work Mr. Petters. Always a joy to see you have posted a new work. Also, I quite enjoy your diction.
I had heard that one of my uncles was out walking the dirt road home.
He was fairly passed a light buzz when he saw the lights above & began to whistle.
There he claimed the lights came down picked him up and dropped him from only 5 feet from the ground.
Crazy honestly, I also live in northern Alberta.
Thanks another great story
Thank you for everything, the effort of your diligent research does not go unnoticed. I love your stories ❤ wishing you & all here a wonderful Sunday & peaceful week ahead ❤️🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸❤️
You can use the app My Aurora Forcast to try to see them based on your location. Love your channel. I'm working in Jasper Park for the summer and appreciate all the lore you talk about from the Stoney people to David Thompson. Big fan of your channel
Excellent top notch video as always bud!
Always top-notch, Hammerson! Thank you for sharing.
Spectacular video and remarkable stories!
Beautiful. Thank you.
Another great addition, thanks! I've observed something strange happening on your channel. I've watched every video on it. Lately I noticed that videos I've given a thumbs up on that I'm rewatching, have the thumbs up missing. While I'm signed in. Seems they've been removed. Sad!
Thank you for your stories. The Northern lights can be seen in Prince George, British Columbia, as well as in the back east.
Yes! I see them in kamloops quite a bit
Great video thank you. I hope you're doing okay up there with the rains in Nova Scotia
Very insightful! I'm my family's tradition, the lights are from light of the heaven, shining through the waters above the firmament. Some interpret that as the throne room of God, but other like myself am not sure what they come from but it's as good of an explanation as any! Loved the information you've gathered!
Show some respect for canada and drop the god crap
Thank-you!
Watching the Northern Lights bouncing off the balcony during the Ice Storm 2013
Awesomeness ❤😊
Very fascinating stuff. I wasn't aware that the Northern Lights were used as a means of predicting the future, although it makes sense. I wonder how many other wars have been foretold by red auroras. It'd be interesting if someone did a study on that.
Brilliant video.
I would like to learn more, have a better understanding, of Canada's 'today's, Administrative, Political, Financial, and Citizen relationship to/with England and Great Britain" + the Journalist and Media Standards.
Having been born a USA Citizen, my personal educational interests and degrees including: USA Curriculum (1 - 12 and College, University of Memphis 🐾), + (Post Grad Studies and Research > 7 yrs) Sociology, Journalism, and "History", inc Ancient History and particular World History, it is become most clear that there's quite a void in a variety of subjects in the Standard Classroom Education offerings.
I would appreciate any Resource References that provide clarity on the afore mentioned Canadian subjects.
I'm interested in understanding Great Britain's current position of Political, Financial, Administrative influence on a Global Scale, what Countries a under their Political and Monarchy Influence, and a factual clarity of the Control they have over the People's that are in specifically Canada, but also generally, the other Countries, States, Districts, they held Colonial Rulership over, and those they continue to govern.
Political, Financial, and Media (any Media Standards, Requirements, and/or Laws, + like content clarity.
This is a subject few have clarity within the auspice of this USA, and certainly it's lacking in those outside our borders.
Anyone who can offer a suggestion of reference, would be most appreciated.

What Is the underground shape that you see during the 4.04 min?
Aurora Borealis?
At this time of year?
At this time of day?
In this part of the country?
Localized entirely within your video?
Yes
Dazzling nocturnal luminosity. Lol.
At this time of year in this part of the country localized entirely within this video?
Perfect puff break.
I think that the northern lights are what was referred to in the bible when God kicked Adam and Eve out of the garden and he placed cherubim at the gates with fiery swords to block their return. Just as good a theory as any.
Energy heaven?
☺️
Oh this narrator he's for sure a Canadian, eh.
The firmament is showing the glory of YHWH the Most High God Almighty is in the center and that's the north pole the compass points to Him like all truth Hail Yah!!!
Man growing up with them I never understood when people got Awed by them lol it does make sense but it felt like everyone saw them at the time
