How to See the Aura

HOW TO SEE THE AURA

Soft or low light is the best condition in which to first see the aura. It also helps to be relaxed, so bed is the best place to try this next experiment.

HOW TO SEE THE AURA STEP 1. Turn off the lights. You don't want to work in pitch-black conditions and in most cases the street lights filtering through the curtains will provide enough light. If not, leave the landing light on and close the bedroom door. The small amount of light seeping underneath the door frame should be enough to work with.

HOW TO SEE THE AURA STEP 2. As you lie in bed, hold your hands straight out in front of you. Look gently at them, don't stare hard- you need to gaze rather than look. The aura rarely appears as a bright light, it is more like a gentle heat haze.

HOW TO SEE THE AURA STEP 3. Try fixing your attention on your hands while focusing your eyes on the bedroom wall. The hands will appear out of focus but this will help you get the knack of the way to look.

HOW TO SEE THE AURA STEP 4. Now very slowly bring the fingertips of each hand towards each other until they are very close but not touching. The aura will appear as fine lines of blue and red light between the finger tips. You can try the same again just using the index fingers of both hands.

HOW TO SEE THE AURA STEP 5. As you draw the hands apart you will see the streams of energy connecting each finger. Imagine the energy increasing and you will see the light glow brightly. Bringing the fingers tantalisingly close together in this way seems to increase the auric flow. It's just like when you bring two opposite poles of magnets together: you feel the attraction suddenly increase as the fields unite.

COLOURED AURA LIGHTS

I see coloured lights around people's heads. Sometimes they appear as balls of light. Could you explain these colours?

Margaret T

The colours you see are the light of the human aura which we have described in reply to earlier letters. The balls of light are a concentration of the energy. It is best to use your own intuition to decide what each colour means in relation to the person that you are seeing them around. However a very general interpretation of the colours seen in the aura is as follows:

Dark Browns & Black: Depression/illness
Red: Emotion/sexuality/anger
Orange: Energy/renewed health/cleansing
Yellow: Happiness/humour/changes
Green: Balance/trustworthy/sincere
Blue: Healing/compassion/clairaudience
Indigo: Intuition/deep thought/clairvoyance
Violet: Spirituality/meditation
Silver: Consciousness/holy/intelligence
Gold: Protection/godliness
