According to Wikipedia...secondary rainbows are caused by a double reflection of sunlight inside the raindrops :)

Interestingly enough, according to the philosophy of Feng Shui, double rainbows "are considered symbolic of transformations in your life !

It’s a sundog. It is formed when sunlight passes through cirrus clouds in the upper atmosphere. The ice crystals in the clouds act like a prism and form the halo around the sun. Usually only happens just after sunrise or before sunset. ☀️ 🌈
