Raphael about to use Holy White Light
White Light is the devastating ability to emit burning light from one's body, mostly through the palm. This ability is rare and is limited to extremely powerful beings, such as angels and some high-tier demons. Sam Winchester is immune to the demonic version, and it is presumed the other Special Children share his immunity, however the angels' version could easily destroy them. Exactly how different the angelic version from the demonic version is is unknown. Though the angelic version is much more powerful than demonic version.
Its strength can also be controlled, from harming a single being to destroying entire cities.
