Chasing the northern lights often resembles playing a card game.<\/p>\n
Knowledge and experience clearly enhance your chances a great deal, but in the end, it\u2019s all about a little bit of luck.<\/p>\n
And then there are these nights:<\/p>\n
Perfect forecast, right timing, clear skies \u2013 and yet \u2013 little to nothing happens.<\/p>\n
Some might feel a bit of disappointment rising in their chests.<\/p>\n
Lady Aurora just asked for a dance \u2013 and then blew you off like your date for the prom.<\/p>\n
Maybe even give you a little glimpse of her glow and glory, but then disappears after just a few minutes, like Cinderella heading home before midnight.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But wait. Aren\u2019t you a bit too focused on this green sparkle in the sky, that you maybe miss out on all the other magic around you?<\/p>\n
All the stars, the constellations, the milky way. A night sky that most of us haven\u2019t seen since our early childhood. If ever.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The breath-taking silence of complete absence of human-made noise.<\/p>\n
The sound of a cracking glacier in the distance, or the waves crashing on the shore.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Feel into yourself. Listen. Notice how all your senses sharpen in the absence of light. How focussed you become. Was that an arctic fox? Or a snow owl?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Nights out in the arctic wilderness are fascinating, and an adventure in itself. No matter what. Take the chance, immerse yourself into this adventure. Stay open-minded, and just see what happens.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Northern Lights still keep some secrets.<\/p>\n
And it\u2019s part of their magic, that they are still yet to reveal.<\/p>\n
