rdfs:comment
  • An Orb experience was a vision experienced by an individual when exposed to one of the Bajoran Orbs. Individuals had varying experiences ranging from intense thoughts to fully developed realities. Orb experiences can have a profound effect on the individual, particularly on Bajorans who believe they act as a direct communication with the Prophets. Experiences can also be quite physically taxing. (DS9 novel: Avatar, Book One)
  • An orb experience is a vision experienced by people when confronting an orb. The experience is normally similar to what happens when the Bajoran Prophets appear to people, as familiar figures appear representing different parts of one's psyche. Orb experiences can last a long time, sometimes even days. (DS9: "Rapture") Vedek Bareil had several orb experiences concerning his guilty feelings about the Kendra Valley Massacre in 2370. (DS9: "The Collaborator")
  • An orb experience refers to visions received when a person encounters a Tear of the Prophets. Experiences varied in intensity and duration. In 2376, Sara Jackson had an orb experience in the Bajoran temple on Deep Space 9.

  • An orb experience is a vision experienced by people when confronting an orb. The experience is normally similar to what happens when the Bajoran Prophets appear to people, as familiar figures appear representing different parts of one's psyche. Orb experiences can last a long time, sometimes even days. (DS9: "Rapture") Vedek Bareil had several orb experiences concerning his guilty feelings about the Kendra Valley Massacre in 2370. (DS9: "The Collaborator") Quark had an orb experience in 2371 in which Zek seemed to be taunting him. It was later revealed that the Prophets had de-evolved Zek. (DS9: "Prophet Motive") Benjamin Sisko had an orb experience in 2373 while consulting the Orb of Prophecy and Change in order to make sense of a series of prophetic visions, including a Pagh'tem'far, that he experienced after being exposed to a plasma burst. (DS9: "Rapture") When Sisko found the Orb of the Emissary on Tyree in 2375, he experienced multiple visions sent by both the Pah-wraiths and the Prophet that inhabited the body of his mother, Sarah Sisko. At the conclusion of the ordeal, Ezri Dax told Sisko "that must have been some orb experience!"

(baldwin: "Home") During an orb experience Timothy Sinclair experienced life as Timothy Morgan, a writer from the 20th century. (Star Trek: Pendragon) Orb experiences are also possible when viewing the Orbs of the Pah-Wraiths. Cardassian resistance fighter Skrain Dukat was forced to look into a Pah-Wraith Orb during his captivity on Bajor, and was shown visions of alternate selves that succumbed to the will of the Pah-Wraiths. Prayer to Oralius disrupted the Orb mid-vision. (Sigils and Unions: Catacombs of Oralius--"Exits in the Haze")
