Can a person sense a comet?

When listening to pandora thumbprint radio, 3 years ago I somehow, was able to tap into my being so deeply, I watched the universe inpode on itself multiple times over, ever since then, I swear I can ( also the only huluccigen I have done was In my dreams 2-3 times/and smoked weed outside and inside of my dreams) see and feel a comet of, well basically images, but then I wonder if I’m actually sensing an actual comet, can a person sense a comet or comets?

Also can you guys point me in the direction of a “r/“ that can answer this question if you guys can’t?

Comet viewing

Why does it seem like every comet that comes through are always only visible right before sunrise or right before sunset. I'm in the northern hemisphere in texas and I've tried to get a good look at a comet for years. But they are always in a bad viewing angle here.

Did I capture the Devil's Comet?

Took this picture today during the first part of the eclipse. Phone time stamped it at 1:11. This picture was taken on my phone with solar eclipse glasses over my camera lens.
