What is the aura?

The aura is the energy field, invisible to most people, that surrounds one's physical body. This energy field is affected by internal factors such as our emotional state and mood, as well as external factors such as interaction with people and egregories of places that can leave impressions and alter it.

Because it is influenced by our emotions and feelings, the aura usually changes color. Each color has a specific association and refers to different qualities of emotions, thus revealing the emotional and energetic state of someone.

Although we tend to classify a person's aura according to one main color, every aura is multifaceted and filled with multiple colors. Therefore, it is common for there to be color alternation, in which one color becomes more dominant and consequently more evident than others.

Do you know when you look at someone and can "read" them, feeling, for example, negative energies coming from them? Well, this means that you were able to perceive their aura. This article is about that. Understand the meaning of auras and learn how to see them right away.

Meaning of the colors of the aura

Auras have many layers of colors. However, only one color tends to be more evident. This most evident color is used as the key to unlock the secrets of someone's energy map. Have you ever thought about being able to decipher people just by observing them? If the answer was yes and you were curious to know how, you will find out everything you need below.

Blue

The blue aura reveals a person with gifts of healing. Being the color of mentalism and spirituality, people with the blue aura operate in "other realms", moving between the mental and spiritual planes. They usually have a very keen intuition and act in a calm manner. Their attitudes transmit serenity and their personality is comforting.

In addition, blue aura reveals an idealistic person, sincere and with strong tendency to spirituality and supernatural. Blue is the color of the throat chakra, which governs the expression of truth. Therefore, blue aura means expression of the flow of internal ideals.

White

The white aura is quite rare. It points to an inclination for perfection, with high mental agility and a nervous energy. If you have the white aura, you possess a high degree of spirituality, and can even contact beings from other planes.

This aura also evokes purity and stimulates love for others through truth. Your spiritual truth is so powerful that it resembles a light gifted with divine gifts. White is the sacred colour of the crown chakra, responsible for connecting us to the energies of the Universe. Therefore you have a strong sense of connection with higher beings and something beyond this reality.

Silver-white

The aura with tones reminiscent of white and at the same time silver reveals someone with advanced steps in evolution. You have a powerful inner light which directs you into the energies of the cosmos and puts you in tune with evolved entities. There is an evolved spiritual glow which emanates from you into the world around you.

Grey

If your aura is grey, you may be experiencing problems of self-esteem and therefore are among those people who tend to see the world from the perspective of the "glass half empty".

People going through anxiety problems tend to have their aura vibrating in shades of gray. Likewise, insecure, shy and "Mary goes with the flow" people also have an aura of this color, as they are afraid to express their own opinions or desires.

Orange/yellow

Often auras can have quite similar tones that are difficult to distinguish. This is the case with the colors orange and yellow. The orange aura shows someone at their creative potential, as the color orange is connected to the sacral chakra, ruler of sexuality and creativity.

Through your art, it is possible to find peace, but there is one condition: one step at a time. If you have an orange aura, you are in a phase with a lot of energy, so it is essential to tame and direct this energy. Furthermore, you are able to get along easily with people, so take the opportunity to work in groups.

The yellow aura denotes optimism and peaks of enthusiasm. This is the time to dedicate yourself to the present and not worry too much about what hasn't happened yet. Being the color of the solar plexus chakra, the yellow aura also demonstrates confidence and your sense of identity.

Black

The black aura is not the color of the aura itself, but a sign that there is a part of you that is extremely tired. It can manifest with rude behavior, social indisposition and selfishness. People who have this aura act instinctively, possessing an energy linked to shyness, search for knowledge, and especially a tendency to loneliness.

If you have a black aura, it is important to get rid of your emotional baggage in order to live better. Try to rest and balance your chakras so that you can recharge the energies of your energy field.

Rosa

The pink aura points to someone who is "given." If you have a pink aura, you give yourself completely to others, expecting nothing in return. While it's nice to help others, it's important not to let people take advantage of the situation and end up draining you energetically.

The pink aura is the color of altruism, of sympathy worthy of "a hand heart," in which kindness and empathy are aligned to be sensitive and help others. Because it is the secondary color of the heart chakra, a pink aura is a sign that your chakra is open to others.

Turquoise

If your aura is vibrating with the color turquoise, you are in a position of high creativity. Your artistic gifts are more in evidence and you will be able to communicate and express yourself through various languages such as speech and even art.

In addition, you balance rational intelligence and emotional intelligence, possessing a deeper interpretation of your surroundings. Therefore you are able to react more quickly to external stimuli.

Green

The green aura reveals someone who loves nature. This person is also quite centered, hardworking and dedicated, being always open to grow and promote growth. Despite these extremely positive points, there is a dark side to this aura color: green is also the color of jealousy and if your aura vibrates in green, you are more prone to want to compete with others.

The green aura is also the self-confident aura as it is connected to the heart chakra. You are in a phase which is quite sensitive to others and will easily exercise virtues like forgiveness and compassion. This is the aura commonly found in music lovers, so auras of musicians usually vibrate with this colour.

Red

Red is the colour of passion. If your aura is in this hue, you are driven by your desires and your own emotions. Having this aura also indicates a typically creative essence, able to manifest your dreams and goals, and inspire others through change and creative solutions.

The red aura also reveals stable health, however there is a tendency to angry outbursts if you are faced with something that goes against your plans or wishes. Being the color of the root chakra, if your aura is red, it means that this power point is stable and unblocked.

Violet/Lilac

The violet, lilac or even purple aura reveals the need and constant search for establishing a deeper connection. Violet is the color of spiritual awareness, emotional perception and psychic powers.

This association is not at all surprising, if we remember that the third eye chakra, responsible for psychic faculties, is ruled by the color violet, so if your aura is exposing this color, it is possible that "paranormal" things are happening around you.

So be open to manifesting your psychic powers at this time, and you will be more intuitive and can bring about spiritual change and inspire spirituality wherever you go.

How to strengthen the aura

One of the main doubts about the work and initial contact with the aura energy is about how to strengthen it. If you also have this doubt, you will find the answer you are looking for below.

We point out as options to help strengthen your aura techniques such as creating the habit of praying, practicing walks and other options. Discover them below.

Beware of feelings

The aura is very prone to the influences of your feelings, so it is important to be careful with them, as they are directly linked to how your aura will react. Low astral feelings like sadness, despair, anger, envy, anguish and fear end up altering your aura negatively.

Once altered, your aura will change color and may reflect causing a number of problems in your body, many of which are psychosomatic in nature. Consequently, it is important to always remain in a state of alert, policing what you feel and replacing feelings of a negative nature with those of high vibration.

Avoid possible stress

Stress is one of the main negative agents that affect the mind. With the aura could be no different. When we are stressed, we are more prone to mood swings and end up lowering the threshold for negative entities and low vibration energies that affect the quality of our life and consequently the tone of our aura.

Therefore, avoid situations considered stressful and, when it is not possible to avoid them, at least try to identify them, so that you can reinforce your psychic and energetic defenses and protect your auric integrity.

Morning walk

Walking during the early hours of the morning is not only recommended to maintain your physical health. This simple healthy habit, when incorporated into your routine, will make you maintain the energy of your body, including the state of your aura.

When walking, try to look for natural areas surrounded by greenery such as parks, woods or more wooded neighborhoods. If possible, walk by the sea or the edge of a watercourse so that you benefit from this positive influence and recharge the energies of your aura.

Moments of joy

Living well is also another effective option when you are trying to strengthen your aura. Try to surround yourself with loved ones, do what you enjoy and set aside a moment in your routine to dedicate to yourself.

It is possible to find small moments of joy and happiness even during your ordinary activities, as long as you align your thoughts with this goal and are willing to improve your mood. Invest in healthy (and tasty) foods, relaxing and more cheerful music to facilitate the strengthening process.

Energy bath

Another option for those seeking to strengthen the aura is to take energetic baths. To prepare them, choose herbs and flowers, preferably fresh, aligned with the cleansing energy. Herbs such as myrrh, rosemary, sandalwood or cedar are wonderful to be added to your bath water.

You can also take energetic baths in other ways. As examples, we can cite the moon bath, the sun bath, or even the sound or energetic bath with different crystals.

Keep in the habit of praying

Practicing prayers, especially creating them, is an important way to strengthen your aura. When saying your prayers, choose a deity or spiritual entity that you have the most affinity with. Ask for their protection and give your consent so that your spirit guides can act through you to help with the aura strengthening process.

You can recite your prayers throughout the day, but waking up and before bed are the most traditional times for this purpose. Despite these more fixed hours, remember that your contact with the divine is determined only by you and your spirituality. Therefore, pray whenever you wish or feel the need. Just don't forget to make this act a habit.

Techniques of how to see the aura

Throughout this article we have talked about how to strengthen the aura, its colors, but we have not yet dealt with a very important topic: how to see it. For this reason, we present in this section 6 easy and proven techniques to start your extrasensory perception to see your auric field. Check it out.

Cardboard technique

To see the aura through the cardboard technique, you will need 1 sheet of blue cardboard (preferably dark blue) and a volunteer person. To perform it, find a quiet place in which you will not be disturbed and that necessarily needs to have a white wall (or a whiteboard background).

The volunteer should stand in front of the white background, looking at you. While she waits, stare at the blue cardboard for approximately 5 minutes, avoiding blinking during this period. When the 5 minutes have passed, look at the person positioned in front of the white wall. Her aura will be visible.

Counting technique up to 5

In this technique, you need to be sitting facing the person you are analyzing. Stare at the person's third eye chakra region (between the eyebrows) and count from 1 to 5. Then close your eyes quickly and keep them closed for another five seconds.

Then open your eyes again and look at the root chakra, located above the head, of the person in front of you. Count once more to five and close your eyes. Then mentally ask: what color is [person's name]'s aura? Take note of the first name or the first color that appears on your mental screen. This is the color of the person's aura.

Approximate Finger Technique

To do the close-fingers technique, place your hands in front of your body so that they are no more than 2 inches apart from each other. Then, fold all the fingers of each hand, except the index fingers, which should be straight.

Then, start staring at the space between your index fingers, taking care to focus only on this area and ignore all the other elements in your field of vision. Avoid blinking. In time, you will notice that your vision will start to blur and a sort of smoke will fill the space between your fingers.

This smoke increases and decreases as you move your fingers apart or closer. If you can see it, congratulations, you are already seeing your own aura.

Technique of observing the hand

In the hand observation technique, you will need to stretch out your arm, preferably the arm that is the hand with which you are writing. When your arm is fully extended, stretch the fingers of your hand, stretching them as far as possible toward the sky.

Finally, focus on the tip of your index finger. Stare until you see a smoke or filament of light above it. This is your aura.

Foil technique

Find a sheet of white sulphite paper, without staves. It is important that the sheet of paper you have chosen fits your whole hand on its surface. Once you have the paper, stretch your hand out on it and draw, with the help of a pencil or pen, a dot above your index finger.

As with the previous technique, you will need to stretch out your arm and keep your vision centered on the dot drawn on the paper. Stare, ignoring your peripheral vision, until your aura becomes visible. It will appear as smoke or mist and its color will vary according to your state of mind.

Mirror technique

To practice this technique, you'll need a mirror. It can be your hand mirror, as long as it's possible to see your whole head on its surface (for this, in the case of small mirrors, you'll need to move your head away until it's fully reflected in it).

Then stare at the mirror, staring only at your head and ignoring furniture and all other objects reflected in the mirror. It is important not to blink. During the process, you will notice that your face will reveal a kind of smoke, which may have different colors.

This smoke is your aura. Take note of its color to interpret it according to the information in the first section of this article.

Is it really possible to see the aura with the naked eye?

Yes. Seeing the aura with the naked eye is not only possible. Although people with more developed psychic abilities (known as mediums or psychics) have an easier time seeing the aura of people, plants and animals, this ability can be developed practiced by anyone, provided they have the time to train.

If you are initiating in the world of the reading and interpretation of auras, you can find easier to pay to have a photo using the Kirlian method and have a physical record of the existence of the auric field, but this is not necessary.

In this article we show you 6 easy and inexpensive techniques to help you in the process of developing your extrasensory perception. Therefore, you have in your hands all the necessary tools to start seeing the world through a new look.
