my theory is it has to do with your aura and soul...
see a soul is built over time and becomes a resonator... YOU are a beacon of energy.
and if you are truly vibrating, then it affects electronic things around you... ( some folks auras are HUGE )
I can at times, make them go off and on at will...
though most of the time it is when I'm driving.
I ALSO think it has to do with how many guardian angels are flying with you...
as they are MOSTLY electromagnetic, they would in some ways cause an effect on unstable lights, timers and magnetic ballasts...
MY experience is when ALL OF A SUDDEN I have a lot of them going off, I am, on track for something that I need to randomly veer away from... maybe there is a future probabliity ahead and unless I change course, direction or even momentum, I may have an unwelcome event.
So I randomly will turn down a street, go in a shop or just stop the car a bit... and it's worked in helping me avoid something... bad.
so take it as a sign you are on a course and you either need to ALTER IT or WELCOME IT...

dunno but it does it to me too. Might be a rational explanation like some kind of movement or light sensor. |

Took a ride into the CA desert at night once. Stopped and just gazed at the milky way. My first thought was - it really does exist. LOL Very beautiful.
Funny thing - grew up in Iowa, spent many a night in the country, couldn't see it from there. |

What a strange comment, City boy.
I'll go check for you to see of it's still there...
Yup still there.

Sometimes lightpoles turn off when I walk passed them. Anybody know why this happens?
sometimes lightpoles are operated by motion sensors so that they don't have to be on all the time but are useful when a vehicle or person is approaching. after you are out of it's field some of them will turn off again. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 401189

If you really want to know. Light ballasts and some light bulbs contain a overheating protector called an "overload".
The overload protector turns the light off if it gets too hot, to protect the light bulb or ballast from exploding. Usually, over time, the overload becomes weak, and will cut off the light prematurely. So what happens is the light will shut off and after it cools, will turn back on again. It will stay on for awhile and then turn back off. The light will keep doing this until the light pole is maintained. |

Its just science dude. Overloads are used in allot of things, like hair dryers, clothes dryers, air conditioners. Usually anything that can get too hot and catch on fire or explode. |

My opinion is that you only notice when they do turn off, and you don't notice the ones that don't, therefore thinking you turn them off. |

This has happened to me too. It was weird because it wasn't just one light. It was about 5 or 6 lights in a row. I tried driving underneath these lights again a few days later, and it didn't happen again. When this happened, I was coming home from Kohl's. And, I'm the type of guy who goes into a store to get what I need to get and leave. But, that night, it took a little longer than usual because it was busier there than it usually is, and I got a little agitated. I still turn some lights off once in awhile, but that night, it was just crazy how every light would just turn off as I drove underneath it. |

yes i know i was just messing with ya. actually in a recent class the instructor demonstrated one of these "safety switches" and hooked it up directly to the terminals of a car battery. Wires smoked and the switch flipped and actually burnt its self out so it never did close. |

Funny thing is this phenomenon has been happening to me to and I can say it played into my delusion of being something important. I tell you some delusions are caused by external events that all line up in the right way to make you nuts. The truth in my opinion is however that it happens to remind you there is a reality outside our perceptive reality, as in the parable of the cave. We only see the shadows of what exists we are so so so limited it isn't even funny. |

I have this phenomenon as well.. I believe it is called technokinesis - effecting electrical devices with your mind. It will certainly come in handy the day we create robots that turn against us. |

Random occurrences in our vicinity could easily be attributed to mean more than just mere co-incidences.
If a street light blinks out 200 times a night and you walk past it when it does, is this auspicious, or an event of high certainty? |

Been happening to me for years. It's a known thing--some people who have this also have trouble with electrical equipment and battery powered watches. I don't--have particularly good luck with computers, copiers, etc., in fact. No big deal. Since we all have electricity in our bodies, I suspect those of us who turn off street lights, etc. just have slightly different charges or something. |

hmmm. It could be the relection of light from your poorly aligned headlights triggering the streetlight sensor so that the light goes out, because it thinks its daylight. They don't come back on immediately because of a time delay in the circut to prevent overconsumtion of power.
Naw.......
Demons are chasing you. thats the only logical explanation. Yeah, its demons dude. Better find a priest. PS watch out for priest that look you up and down to much..... |

Come one, come all. Glad I'm not alone.^^ I too frequently experience this phenomenon. Base on experience, it ranges from 1-8 street lights simultaneously. It was the 8 street lights that freaked me out the most. Could it have something to do with +/- energy within our body/mind? |

I'm so relieved to know there are others. Streetlights have been turning off when I walk or drive under them for a few years now. There was a period of time where they stopped turning off (Though, It's possible I just stopped noticing), but a few weeks ago they began to do it again, more often, now. As far as I know, other electronics aren't affected, only streetlights. |

Thanks God, I thought I was the only one having this problem.
Each time I pass a light pol or pass close to it (other side of the road), the light turns off.
I talked to some people but they don't believe me. |
