SLIder phenomenon strreet light interferrience?

Question

everytime i stand under a street light, it will start blinking , the longer i stand under it the more it blinks until it becomes like a lightening show, soon as i walk away from it, it stops, then ill walk to the next one and it starts blinking, until ive walked under all the lights in the street...its not a coincidence, because i have been able to demostrate it to every single person i know, and happens every single time, all over the place, where ever i go.. I hadnt done it for a while, and last night i went for a walk down my street and it still happened, on every light i walked under.. Ive noticed it happens more intense when im charged up, like excited or angry, and only mild when im relaxed.. My sister kicked me out of her house one night cause i was angry and all the lights inside started flashing on and off, where ever i stood.. can anyone give any explanation as to why the lights react to some people,and how, whats the connection...

Answer 1

I can't explain it,I'd sure like to see it though.Could you possibly post a video?

Answer 2

In my neck of the woods, many streetlights will blink every now and then. Stand under any one for long enough and you'll likely see it flicker, and then you can attribute it to your presence if you want, but really it's not.

Your sister probably started turning the lights on and off as you walked off, just to mess with you since she knows you would interpret it as supernatural. Don't expect her to admit this to you, though.

It is my opinion that we all have an electrical field that is different with each individual. The higher ones field the more likely it is that it will interfere with electrical equipment. I notice that sometimes I get the same reaction you get. It is a rare individual that has the electrical power to do this. Animals have it also. My gf's dog and I were walking at night and several lights flickered and some went out. It happened more with the dog and I than when I walked alone. There are many other websites you can check out when you punch in the SLlder phenomenon. I don't know what use it is in a practical sense but I think if the power can be harnessed it could be useful in studying psycho-kinetics.

Answer 4

I have the same thing, mostly when I'm mad or upset about something.  I can do it to florescent light in stores and the mall some times.  I kill watches too.  I'd like to now more about the investigation and web pages you found.

Hi Kelly,

Hillary Evans, an author and paranormal investigator with The Association for the Scientific Study of Anomalous Phenomena (ASSAP), is also studying the phenomenon. (You can download the original SLI Effect book in PDF format by Hilary Evans completely free from their website.) She has established the Street Lamp Interference Data Exchange as a place where SLIders can report their experiences and share those of other SLIders.

Answer 6

The lights are simply trying to scare you off ( they're devils for doing that - often just for fun! )

Answer 7

Welp, you're not the only one, and other people seem to notice it when they personally are experiencing strong emotions or otherwise feeling strong emotional vibes.  Check the source for other stories similar to yours.

There is, of course, a relatively easy explanation for this, but, hey, I know where I'm commenting.  I doubt you'll go for it.

Answer 8

I had this happen to me at one time but it was after i was electrocuted by 240 volts . More then street lights would go off though . I couldn't go into a hospital room with heart monitors or anything like that without them going nuts. Same with automatic opening doors  . If i stood at a certain point they would open and close for as long as i stood there and it wasn't close about 30 foot away .

The neatest thing was the parking meters would ring up time if i touched them but that only lasted about a year .

Ive lost most of my charge now and i don't see it happened anymore but i still cant wear a digital watch for over a day without the battery's going dead .

We all have an aurora around us and street lights have a light sensor .I think the light sensor pics up our aurora that's what makes the lights go out . You may have a bright aurora or a certain color when you get into your moods . Mine was charged by 240 volt

  Just good to see some one ells that happens to besides me . I cant prove mine anymore but you have a believer that yours is real.

Answer 9

333..this is really "far out". !!!  If it wasn't YOU  saying this..I think I wouldn't be able to believe it. I really doubt that the skeptics will.Maybe you've been into so many spiritual things that it causes this. I'm anxious to see the other answers on here.I sent my sister your copy of Gregorian Chant and your other pictures. You are a very unique person. I'm glad we "met". Thanks for sharing.

Kelly...I'm SO GLAD other people confirmed what's happening with you is real. Hope you find the answer soon. If this ever happens to me in the future...at least I'll know I'm not the only one. (1 is the lonliest #) (esp. in the paranormal section !) lol

Answer 10

The lights that they use for street lamps are filled with gas. As they get old the gas will cool and settle, and the light will go out. Then the gas will reignite and it will come back on for awhile until the gas settles again.

My guess is that the town you live in needs to change some of the light bulbs.

Did you notice that it doesnt happen with normal household lamps?

The reason it seems to happen all the time, and be more than coincidence to you is it probably does. What you dont realize is that it happens to everyone who is walking by the lamps, and has nothing to do with actually walking by or being near the lamps. This is just a coincidence.

The fact that you are looking for this phenomena to happen, and that you want to believe you are part of something magical creates what is known as confimation bias. You remember the times it happens and dont pay attention when it doesnt happen.

There is no such thing as a slider. This is just a concept used to sell books by convincing people they are part of something special, when in fact they are just observing common everyday things.

In conclusion, its all in your imagination.

Answer 11

Aha!  Finally, something that can be tested.

Establish that it's you and only you that this happens to.  Test a handful of different kinds of street lamps.  Then see if the same thing occurs if someone else does the same thing you do.

Once you've established that it's you and only you having this effect on lights and it's not happening to the lights when you aren't near them, then you have something to measure.  If you are giving off an energy field strong enough to have a visible impact on electrical devices then this field will be measurable.  If it's legitimate they you'll have a number of interested parties.  A university is probably the best place to find someone to measure this sort of phenomenon.

I suspect there's a bit of confirmation bias happening here also.

Answer 12

I have to say, I have had this same thing happen for years, only its when I am driving my vehicles and the lights go out as I pass them,
