Ep. 08 - the poetry and physics of rainbows

Rainbows 🌈 witnessing one feels like a sudden, unexpected gift ~ we exclaim with joy, point them out to those around us, and linger in their beauty for as long as we can. Their presence brings such AWE and presence, even to the most mundane moments.

But something you might not know about rainbows ~ no two people ever see the same rainbow, even if you're standing right next to each other! Rainbows, which made of tiny droplets of water that bend and refract light, can only be seen when the sun, the rain, and the observer are in perfect alignment.

In this episode of Tiny Portals, we explore the physics and poetry of rainbows ~ and dive deeper into the symbols and wisdom that these wonderful spectrums of light hold.
