Question:

If a RAINBOW represents HOPE, what does an AURORA BOREALIS represent?

in your personal opinion.
:-)

which would you rather be, the spectrum of the day or the spectrum of the night(dawn)?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: If it's anything like the Aurora Australis, as I believe it is - The glory of the universe and the "music of the spheres". Haven't seen the northern lights, but I've seen "St. Elmo's Fire" (electric charge on a mast in a storm), and the flames of luminous algae streaking through the black shoulders of breaking waves at sea at night, like lightning bolts, like monsters searching prey (and you'd see it sometimes streaming from dolphins diving) - and of it all the Aurora Australis was the most wonderful. I've seen it on dark nights, flaring like rising and falling silken curtains of ravishing colors, folding, unfolding, vanishing and appearing again - like a dance of luminous veils, flirting with the darkness. I've watched it for hours shivering in freezing cold, from the deck of a boat at night, and from far inland in the desert. Never seen it at dawn. The first flush of sunrise creeping under the night can be spectacular too at sea or in unbroken desert, especially under heavy cumulus or broken stratus clouds, painting highlights of silver and ochre and violet shadows in the sky, and spilling gold across the land - but not so amazing as the Aurora. So I don't care - any spectrum will do!
