A quick video log regarding the search for Guardian Beacons. The "glancing" technique for finding Guardian Ruins does not seem to work for beacons.

The "glancing" method works as such: While leaving your targeting system off, one can find Guardian Ruins by looking at them, even at very long distances. The ruins pop up on the HUD if no target is selected.

However, this does not work at arbitrarily long distances for Guardian Beacons. A word of caution for those exploring for them: you must be within 1000 Ls of the beacon for the "glancing" method to work.
