The aura has long been associated with folk thought, spiritual and occult traditions, and shamanistic beliefs. It is believed that the human body is apparently surrounded by an aura that can be observed, portrayed, and interpreted.
Its colours are taken as pointers to a person's bodily, emotional, and spiritual state. Some psychics claim to see the aura and its colours; others propose to capture the aura, usually through photography or videography.
Auras are streams of subtle energy bordering living beings, inanimate objects, and even places—they are electromotive energy. This energy is said to emit vast renditions of colours that correspond to frequencies.
Our auras contribute to our sense of presence and spiritual health. Some people can see or feel the aura, but others must quite literally tune in, using their intuition or ‘sixth senses’.
The aura is a gentle vibrational energy field that extends outwards from the body on all sides. It is composed of 7 layers of the aura energetic radiation, each with a different personality, vibration, and function.
The lower layer closest to the physical body is the physical aura, which is concerned with the physical health of that individual.
The second layer, the emotional layer, is associated with emotions, feelings, and relationships.
The third layer, the mental layer, is associated with thoughts, ideas, and beliefs.
The fourth layer, the astral layer, is associated with spiritual energy and consciousness.
The fifth layer is etheric, and here is the energy of the life force (chi, prana).
The sixth celestial layer is farther down spiritual realms and cosmic emanations.
The seventh, highest, and ultimate layer, known as the etheric layer, is associated with the divine. The theta-layer profile of a person’s spiritual potential, which, depending on their level of spiritual achievement, will indicate the individual's full destiny or final purpose.
Aura reading and healing have flourished in Western societies as people search for new approaches to alternative medicine.
Auras shift and change in response to your outlook, emotions, and bodily states by showing different colours and frequencies, indicating emotions like fear, anger, and stress, which shrink the aura or dull it and distort its glow while uplifting emotional states such as love, joy, and healing peace enlarge and brighten the aura’s energy field.
At the same time, energy-healing modalities such as Reiki, acupuncture and meditation help to balance and energise the aura.
Psychics and aura readers are believed to be able to perceive the subtle field of energy surrounding all living beings. Some say the colour of a person’s aura gives clues to their emotional, physical, and spiritual condition. If you wish to learn how to see auras, below is a step-by-step guide to help you.
To create the right environment, choose a quiet and tranquil place. Sitting in these places grants you the opportunity to become secluded and serene with yourself and the environment.
Make yourself a comfortable position sitting on a cushion or a more standard chair or spreading out on a yoga mat. Whatever works best for your body, ensure you’re putting the least resistance in the way of your breath and your relaxation.
Natural light should be in the room, or you can light a candle or two to leave some soft flickering light. This will allow you to concentrate better and put less pressure on your eyes.
Secondly, it is advisable to consider the temperature, which should neither be too hot nor too cold to relax. A cool temperature will assist you in being calm and concentrating well, which are vital for seeing the aura.
Third, remove any potential distractions. Turn off your phone or any other device that could divert your attention. Tell the people around you that you will be alone so they won’t disturb you.
Seeing auras may sound supernatural or even magical. Consider learning to see them as a form of advanced meditation. Relax and clear your mind.
The person you would like to see needs to be correctly placed by you, with an arm held out parallel to the ground. Auras are only visible to some. To begin seeing them, it’s helpful to have a steady perception of them – get a sense that there is indeed an aura there, and then concentrate on it, transferring your gaze from the person’s face to the aura.
One of your first assignments will be to tune in to auras by focusing on a point, which is an excellent training tactic for sharpening your eyes and mind to subtle energies and cues.
First, find a place to sit or stand quietly without any distractions, with your eyes fixed on a single spot on a wall or elsewhere in your field of vision.
Breathe in fully and let go of all the tension in your body and mind by releasing your breath.
Now, you pick one of those single points, focus on it, and try not to blink or look anywhere else for at least a minute. You might notice that the colour or shape of that point begins to shift or even blur; when this happens, it’s all par for the course.
You’ll see better with your peripheral vision, the eye slightly outward of an object or person instead of straight at it. It allows you to relax your lined-up eyes so they can open and widen to let in more of the energy field.
You might notice a faint glow or silhouette when you’ve relaxed your eyes and allowed them to focus on the aura area around the person or object. It can be a band, haze of colour, or a see-through mist. Based on the hues they exhibit, the auric aura's various colours convey emotions and conditions of being, with each colour signifying a specific charge.
The next step is to look at the person you want to see auras around, relax your eyes and focus on the space surrounding the body. You may notice a delicate, shimmery light or hazy mist of light around your body.
Observe the colours arising in your perception. According to colour psychology, every colour symbolises a different quality in the person's energy stream: red indicates passion and vitality, blue suggests creativity and communication, and so on.
While practising, you might begin to see auras as a colour field around the person’s body, perhaps with a pulsating halo or glow. You may note various colours attached to the individual. Learning the spiritual practice of reading your aura provides a deep understanding of your aura health and how this affects many aspects of life. Here is a quick breakdown of aura colour meanings:
With practice, you can develop your psychic gifts as it is more difficult to see your aura and your own human energy field without a mirror, window, or other reflective surface. As such, it is helpful to follow your breath and watch for the associated sensations and emotions that arise for you.
For more than 30 years, Trusted Psychics have been practising spiritual readings to help people feel better and live happier, healthier lives from their intuitive and spiritual connections with those who have passed and their guides.
These readings are non-judgmental and safe places for people to speak openly about how they feel emotionally and mentally and receive the support they need in a kind and compassionate way.
The expert spiritual readers at Trusted Psychics connect with your intuition and spiritual guides so you can benefit from a wealth of information and guidance as you make decisions in your life.
It can be hard to trust that inner voice, intuition, and gut feelings. Still, with the loving guidance and support you receive from spiritual messages from ancestors and spiritual companions, you can trust your intuition and use it to help you feel better, be confident in your decisions, and gain trust and confidence in yourself.
The Trusted Psychic aura readers work with energy centres to cleanse our emotional bodies, which many believe gives them peace, comfort, and a clearer understanding of life around them and within them.
For those who feel unsettled or anxious, spiritual readings can provide grounding and centring, as well as an informative therapy session, allowing the spiritual advisor to help them work through emotional pain and past trauma.
There is no need to make an appointment as whenever you feel the time is right just make a phone call or use the psychic messenger service and contact a live psychic reader at Trusted Psychics.
There are several ways you can go about seeing your auras, one of the most popular being the subject (yourself or another person) standing in front of a neutral-coloured background, such as a white wall or sheet, and focusing on the area immediately surrounding the body.
A lowered aura may signal that the person is under emotional or physical duress or is simply overstretched and depleted.
The first thing you can do is support them and listen—perhaps your loved one is going through a difficult period and needs someone to talk to. You can also provide support by doing practical things for them, such as cooking them a healthy meal or running errands for them.
Encourage them to strengthen their aura in other ways. Get them to take better care of their physical and emotional health—think exercise, meditation, psychotherapy, or simply engaging in a favourite self-care activity.
Second, many energy psychotherapy practitioners also use several holistic and complementary treatments to enhance and optimise the aura to help facilitate the positive effects of energy medicine.
Such techniques aim to help people manage their energy and emotions and include spiritual energy healing, sound therapies, or crystal therapies. Such sessions also claim to cleanse the aura of any negative energy and encourage the free flow of positive energy in the body.
When someone seems more attracted to another person’s aura, trusting that the subtle pressure it might exert on their energy could drive a person’s perception and attraction to the other.
The energy field of a positive, vibrant person, beckoning others’ energies, can make them more appealing and fascinating; a negative or stagnant aura can make the other person look funny and repelling.
