The white flare of the Force was one of the equal and balanced parts of the Force that comprised all worlds. The white flare's heat and intensity differed from but was in harmony with the black current of the Force. The flare was a brightness in beings who were Force-sensitive. Its searing torrent rose like a bonfire that could be a steady beacon or become a blast or an explosion.
The white flare of the Force was first depicted in "The Duel," a short film in the Star Wars: Visions series produced by Kamikaze Douga and directed by Takanobu Mizuno, and first identified in the tie-in novel Ronin: A Visions Novel, written by Emma Mieko Candon. Instead of a light side and dark side of the Force, Candon drew upon the concepts of Taoism and yin/yang as part of re-envisioning the Force as closer to its Japanese cultural inspirations. The white flare is therefore neither light nor dark side.
