While Sundogs often hold spiritual significance, their origins are firmly rooted in science. This atmospheric phenomenon occurs when sunlight refracts through ice crystals suspended in the air, producing a halo effect and creating rainbow-like flares on either side of the sun. Sundogs are universally observed, transcending boundaries, borders, and affiliations with any specific race, culture, or religion.
The appearance of a halo around the sun can hold various meanings based on different perspectives. Generally, Sundogs and the rainbow-like effect they create are seen as positive signs. Sundogs often symbolize a change or transition in life, while the coloured halos are believed to herald messages of unity and harmony.
