Dear
Intuitive Times
Could
you explain to me a little bit about what an aura is? Sometimes
when I am watching people, especially someone who is speaking
to a group, I can see a white blue glow around them. Is that their
aura?
JC., Halifax, N.S.
Yes,
you are most likely seeing the aura surrounding people. People
who are speaking can sometimes project their auric field so that
it enfolds the audience. A truly charismatic speaker has perfected
this ability.
The
aura is a field of radiation, an emanation which can be seen by
some around the body. The aura has different names to different
people. It has been called a halo, an electro-magnetic field,
bioplasm, spiritual energy. And more. It is a concentrated field
of glowing energy that can be seen most clearly around the head
and upper shoulders. This personal force field can be seen surrounding
the full extent of the body, but is usually not nearly as bright
below the waist.
The
aura is seen most often clairvoyantly. Sometimes it can be viewed
through physical sight using the peripheral vision. To do this
you have to unfocus your eyes and look beyond the person so you
can see the aura using your physical eyes. It is most often seen
as a white or white blue light but can have color.
The
colors seen in the aura do have special meaning. The aura, could
be considered a "coat of many colors" indicating the
physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health of the individual.
To many for example a brilliant red means anger and force; dirty
red means passion and sensuality; brown means avarice; rose means
love or affection; yellow means high type intellectual activity;
purple means spirituality; blue means religious devotion; green
means deceit and jealousy, and in a deeper shade it can be interpreted
as sympathy. Using another system of understanding gold stands
for spirituality, pale blue and purple for healing power, pink
for pure love and affection, red for desire and anger, green for
intellect, browns and dark muddy shades for disease. Very generally
speaking, when you see dull, murky colors it means that the person
has a mental or emotional problem. Bright and vivid colors indicate
a healthy state. Depending on what book you read, there tends
to be disagreement regarding the interpretation of a color. Caution
should thus be exercised when attempting to read auras. The question
that one must ask is , " What does it mean to me?" For
things of Spirit, there are no absolute right or wrong answers
when interpretation by an individual is involved.
Auras
have been part of human experience for a very long time. Medieval
saints and mystics noted four different kinds of auras: the nimbus,
the halo, the aureola and the glory. We are familiar with the
halos that surround the heads of Jesus Christ and the saints.
Five hundred or more years ago, Assyrian and Egyptian sensitives
reported that a glowing light radiated from the bodies of humans.
Richard
De A'Morelli, in an article entitled "How You Can See the
Human Aura," says the aura consists of two distinct sections:
... The innermost region, called the introvertive aura, is by
far the most spectacular. This is a broad, highly luminous band
of light which extends outward from the body in all directions
for a distance ranging between 18 inches to several feet. This
section typically represents about 75 percent of the entire aura.
Its coloration may vary from one moment to the next depending
on the major health, mental, and emotional qualities expressed
by an individual. ...
The
outermost region, called the extrovertive aura, is a narrow band
of luminous energy having a depth of four or five inches to slightly
more than one foot. This area tends to be dimmer than the introvertive
portion of the aura, and it may likewise change its coloration
from moment to moment."
Auras
have been captured in ways which make them visible to everyone.
In 1911 an English doctor, Walter Kilner (1847-1920) published
the book, The Human Atmosphere. In it he told of his research
with auras and made the prediction that one day medical science
would turn to the aura in diagnosing illness.With the use of a
dicyanin dye screen, he was able to make the human aura visible
to sight.
Another
technique is Kirlian photography which was discovered by the Russian
electrician, Semyon Davidovich Kirlian,. The process takes photographs
of auras and has provided evidence that auras exist. The Kirlian
photos are of the "bio-luminescent" patterns of living
things. It is done with a high-frequency oscillator that creates
a field of electrical waves moving as fast as 200,000 cycles per
second. The 'bio-luminescent pattern' of any living thing inserted
into this field while clamped to a special photographic paper
will be reproduced on film.
Today
there is also a number of electronic apparatus which are advertised
as capturing images of the aura on a computer display or as a
printout. These tools are sold as both novelties and as diagnostic
tools.
