mystic visions

Otherworldly sight experiences

Mystic visions are experiences of perceiving spiritual or supernatural realities—divine presences, hidden truths, or prophetic glimpses.

The phrase suggests something beyond ordinary sight, accessed through religious ecstasy, meditation, or altered states: The saint's mystic visions guided her teachings.

Often associated with religious figures, shamans, or those claiming special spiritual insight.
