The Aura

The Aura is an energy field that interpenetrates with and radiates out beyond the physical body.
It is made up of different energy vibrations or frequencies that are also known as the outer bodies.
These, in turn, make up the physical, etheric, astral, mental, causal, and higher spiritual aspects of the multidimensional human fo...rm.

The Aura and the Chakras are linked; the chakras are part of the auric field and each penetrates the other.
The chakras are the means through which a physical being or body communicates with the aura and vice-versa.
The main function of each chakra seems to be as a step-down transformer for the higher frequency subtle energies of the aura.
These energies are converted into chemical, hormonal, and cellular changes in the physical body.
While the aura and chakras are not usually accessible to the naked human eye, and not easily proven to exist using conventional/traditional ‘scientific’ methods, recent advances in science, medicine and psychology are showing that there is more to the idea of body-mind-spirit connection than was originally thought.
In quantum physics we have discovered that the human observer can affect the observed, and consequently the outcome of the experiment.
The next step would be to consider human consciousness is poweful enough to affect matter.
Doctors understand today that the mind can make the body ill - stress illnesses and condictions such as hypertension, ulcers, immune disorders, etc. easily demonstrate that.
In metaphysics an aura is a field of subtle, luminous radiation surrounding or emanating from a person or object (like the halo or aureola of religious art).
Some people can see an aura with their physical eyes, although that is rare.
Usually, when an aura is ‘seen’ it is with the more subtle inner or third eye.
It is thought that each color of the aura has a precise meaning, indicating a precise emotional or spiritual state.
The aura emanation is visualized as an outline of cascading color and may be held to represent soul vibrations, chakric emergence, or a reflection of surrounding energy fields.
Layers of aura are separate and distinct yet connected to all the remaining layers.
In the books of Carlos Castaneda auras are referred to as luminous cocoons.

Modern New Age metaphysics identify the aura as electromagnetic fields.
The existence of electromagnetic fields around every object in the known world is a scientifically proven fact.
What is debatable is whether or not humans can see these electromagnetic fields as colors with the naked eye.
This claim is considered paranormal because devices that sense electromagnetic fields at magnitudes many times smaller than that which allegedly exists in auras have recorded nothing.

However, these energy fields can be documented by a rare form of photography called Kirlian photography.
In truth this energy field not only goes around you, but moves within your body as well.
It is not just the outside of your body that is made of electromagnetic energies, every part of your and everything your experience in third dimension.
Auras vibrate to different color, sound and light frequencies.
The color spectrum varies with one's physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual states. It is thought that auras change all the time according to the person's mood and environment.

Seeing Auras
Auras can be seen physically, or sensed psychically, or both.
To practice seeing auras - have the subject stand in front of a white background and look to the side of their body - either side is fine.
Daylight is often the best light as the sun's rays are full spectrum.
If you watch the person for a minute, you will see their electromagnetic energies as sort of wavy lines of energies.
This looks a lot like the energy you see when you are watching an airplane taking off in a movie.
It helps to let your eyes go a little out of focus while you are looking for an aura. You may only see the aura for a few seconds, then it will disappear.
After you see that energy, you may also see or sense a color frequency, maybe two or three colors, in the aura. After several minutes you should be able to see some sort of energy field around the person, even if you cannot determine the color.
As with all psychic tools, learning to read auras seems easy for some people while others need lost of practice.

If you would like to see your own aura, find a mirror that is in a well lit room. Relax. Look at your head or head and shoulder area.
Focus on one side of your head. Soon you should be able to see the electromagnetic energies as a field of light - around your head.


Feeling Auras
The color of your aura is determined by your emotions, physical surroundings, spiritual work you are doing, items in the room, such as crystals which can magnify or change the colors of any aura.
Anything that can affect an electromagnetic field can affect a change in one's aura. As everything that is in our reality is created from electromagnetic energy, everything has an aura - plants, animals, etc.

A healer such as a Reiki Master or a Massage Therapist, can help their clients by bringing balance to the person's electromagnetic field.
They will observe the person and determine if they have any holes in their aura.
This will appear as if the electromagnetic energies had suddenly stopped.
This indicates where there is a problem or imbalance in their physical body.
All healing must be done on the soul level first!

Do you want to feel the electromagnetic energies coming from your body?
Try holding the palms of your hand facing each other - about two inches apart.
Wait a few seconds. You will feel something.
If you hands are nervous and cold, that will hamper the energies.
Once you begin to feel the sensation of electromagnetic energies between your palms, move them slowly to and fro.
You will feel the movement of your aura. Look between your hands to see the electromagnetic energies, your aura.

Try moving your palms further and further apart slowly.
See how far you can go before you no longer feel the 'pull'.
Remember to check periodically by moving your hands slightly and slowly.
Now try pointing your fingers towards each other and feel those energies.
Again move your fingertips to and fro.
You can repeat this with another person.

Aura energies are linked to colors, the chakra system, musical tones/notes, as they all resonate to the same frequency.
Sound, light and color are all interconnected at source.
Aura around living (conscious) objects (people, plants ...) changes with time, sometimes very quickly.
Aura around non-living object (stones, crystals, water...) is essentially fixed, but can be changed by our conscious intent.

Meditation or working with anything that can enhance your electromagnetic energy fields will raise your frequency and move you to a higher frequency color of light.
In other words - you hold a few clear quartz crystals and meditate, it will have a clear white tone unless you have a serious medical problem.
So as you see all things are connected by the flow of the electromagnetic energy fields that create our reality
