Auras Before looking for your aura you need to know what you're looking for, or its like looking for a needle in a haystack. The Aura is actually an energy field that surrounds your physical body. All living creatures have this energy field. Some are wide spread, others are not. It really depends on the person or thing. The aura is three dimensional, and extends out from your body, so you may see more then one colour at a time. The healthier you are, physically and spiritually, the more vibrant your energy will be, the further the aura will extend out, and the better you will feel. Don't expect to see something right away; it takes practice, practice, practice and a few good guinea pigs. Some people never see colours and are only able to feel the aura. If you find that you don't know if what you're feeling is your aura, then move your hands towards and away from your body. You should feel a difference - if not, go slower and move your hands further. The difference may feel like heat, or simply a slight resistance. Take the time to try this.
2 Ways To See Your Aura 1. The first is the Intuitive Manner, which is the method of seeing your aura with your minds' eye. The visualisation is within you. If you close your eyes you can visualise what your own energy field may look and feel like. 2. The second is the Objective Manner, which is the method of seeing your aura with your physical eye. Yes, that means you open your eyes and look at yourself in a mirror and see energy surrounding you. (no negative self talk aloud in this exercise) There are tools you can use to help you find where your aura is, though tools will require practice and familiarity. Dowsing rods are an extension of your eyes, providing visual clues that you can recognise more easily. They can be made with a willow branch or other traditional wood. You can take a limb that has a fork in it (with the tree's permission) and hold it loosely in your hands. Feel the vibration of the limb while circling around your body. You should be able to feel a difference in the vibrations moving the rod in and out around you. A pendulum interacts with a particular energy field. You can use a necklace, a crystal, or almost anything that hangs from a string. Place the pendulum in your right hand and circle your body. Feel the difference in your vibrations and see how the pendulum swings. If you look in a mirror, light a candle and close your eyes slightly and look at your outer self to see if you see any colours. Colours closest to the physical body usually reflect physical conditions, while outer colours reflect emotional, mental and spiritual energies. The clearer and more pastel the colours the better. Muddier and thicker colours reflect imbalances, or over activity. Dark colours and bright ones indicate high energy levels. There is often more than one colour in the aura. Remember that when you look at someone else's aura you are looking through your own. So keeping that in mind, you will need to know what colour your aura is before deciding what colour someone else's could be. By Lady Therese © 1997
Interpretation of the Aura Colours The following descriptions of the aura colours give you a general insight into interpretation of auras. Please be aware of the fact that not only the colours but also shapes and combinations of colours play an imminent role. The right side shows the male active energy while the left side indicates the female passive energy. RED: desire, vitality, power, the urge to win, to have success, intensity of experience, action, doing, love of sports, struggle, competition, force of will, leadership, strength, courage, passion, eroticism, earthiness, practicality, desire for possessions, sense of adventure, the survival instinct. A majority of young children and teenagers especially boys, have bright red auras. ORANGE: creativity, the emotions, confidence, ability to relate to others in an open and friendly manner, sociability, intuition or gut feeling. The ability to reach out and extend one’s self towards others. Many talented sales people, entrepreneurs, and people who deal with the public have orange auras. YELLOW: sunny and enthusiastic, cheerful, bright, great sense of humour and fun, optimism, intellectuality, openness to new ideas, happiness, warmth, relaxation. Uninhibited expansiveness, release of burdens, problems and restrictions. Talent for organisation, hope and expectation, inspiration. People with yellow auras encourage and support others by naturally being themselves; they radiate like the sun and they also may have a great ability to analyse complex concepts. GREEN: perseverance, tenacity, firmness, patience, sense of responsibility and service, self assertiveness, high ideals and aspirations, dedication, puts high value on work and career. Ambitious desire for respectability and personal attainment, deeply focused and adaptable. Green is also the colour of growth and of dedicated parents, social workers, counsellors, psychologists, and other persons focusing on creating positive change in the world. BLUE: Depth of feeling, devotion, loyalty, trust, desire to communicate. Puts great importance on personal relationships. Empathetic. May be a dreamer or have artistic ability. Possibly tend to put the needs of others before their own and may have the ability to meditate, and live in the moment. Blue may be emotionally sensitive, intuitive, inwardly focused, may enjoy solitude, non-competitive activities, be receptive and desire unity, peace, love and affection in relationships with others. They need a calm and tranquil environment. You’ll find many blue artists, poets, writers, musicians, philosophers, serious students, spiritual seekers, and people looking for truth, justice and beauty in everything. VIOLET/PURPLE: magickal, original, tends to be unconventional, often has psychic abilities, unusual charisma and charm, the uncommon ability to make their dreams come true, or manifest their desires in the material world, wish to charm and delight others and can easily connect with higher planes of consciousness. Playful, non-judgemental, tolerant of others’ eccentricities. Sensitive and compassionate. "Purples" appreciate tenderness and kindness in others. Not especially practical, they tend to prefer to live in a dream world of their own creation. You’ll find many "violet or purple" entertainers, movie stars, free thinkers, visionaries, revolutionaries, and otherwise singular and magnetic individuals. Dark violet could indicate a need to take charge of their life, or perhaps, that the person needs time to spiritually ground him/herself. WHITE: spiritually motivated, the ability to be open and receptive to the divine, or spiritual world. Can merge with ALL THAT IS. Probably unconcerned with worldly matters or ambition. Inner illumination, cosmic wisdom characterise the white energy. Young children, energy workers, and intense meditators often will show bright white in their auras. Generally, white does not often appear in the auras of adults.
