orbing
Moving in circles
Orbing describes circular or spherical movement, or the act of forming something into an orb shape.
In paranormal contexts, orbing refers to the appearance of mysterious glowing spheres in photographs, which believers attribute to spirits or energy: The ghost hunters captured several instances of orbing on camera.
In television fantasy, orbing is a mode of teleportation where characters dissolve into floating lights.
