Auras are yet another universal spiritual concept. It was represented in various ways all across the world.
When a spiritually empowered being is depicted, an aura or 'halo' is shown.

One very famous account is Jesus' Transfiguration.  

 
Jesus being shown with an Aura is actually one of the later instances in a long line of depictions of aura.
Obviously, halos in pop culture are usually used in artwork of angels or when someone is Holy. 
However, this ancient motif in art shows auras present around any enlightened or powerful being. Buddha's aura and its color, called Prabashvara, was described well before the transfiguration event. 
The 'Halo' is seen on Greek Gods/Goddesses, Mithras, and virtually every deity. The sun disks of Egyptian art may be another instance of a 'halo'.  Depictions of auras are a universal sighting across Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia, Australia and everywhere else.

There are such numerous examples of this being shown, all the way back to the earliest human civilizations, that this was clearly a phenomenon seen by the ancients before humans were totally inundated with excess light all the time.
A simple search online of "The Shining Ones" will show much when it comes to all of this.


But the beautiful part about it all?
We now know the aura exists scientifically.

Unfortunately, our eyes have become weakened. With light pollution alone, nowadays we rarely ever encounter darkness. With all of the blue light from our screens, our eyes are further damaged over time.
This makes seeing subtle light with our naked eyes nearly impossible for most modern people.

But our bodies do emit photons. Called biophotons, science has finally arrived at what the ancients knew all along. All life forms emit light in the form of these subtle biophotons. Click the button below to read a quick PubMed rundown on it.

As you might guess, high energy generates more photons. The higher the energy, the shorter the wavelength of light emanating from the body. This determines the hue of color that would be seen.

What used to seem a hippie-dippie exploit like aura may now be gaining traction even in empirical science.  
Everything boils down to frequency. As woo-woo as this topic can sound, using words like 'vibration' and 'frequency' can turn people off because of other New Age
pseudo spiritual movements. Even so, it is simply scientifically true. All physical matter, all energy including brain waves, light, sound, exists at a certain frequency.
The below video shows how emotions connect to frequencies and can cause different colors of aura.

It is important to note that it is not just humans which exhibit auras.
The energy field is found around every living thing, including plants.
Furthermore, spiritual entities like ghosts, angels or deities are reported to have an aura.
Or more accurately to functionally exist in an aura form.
Often with specific colors.

 

Let us get into the appearance of the Aura. The colors can tell us many things. Because of the energetic frequency/vibration behind the photon emission, the fact it takes on that specific color gives us insight into the state of the source of that light.


Red: Energy, vitality, strong emotion. Excitement, seen especially when experiencing anger. Sometimes fear response and adrenaline can garner this hue. An influx in ego (such as when listening to exhilarating music). Can also run the gamut of more base and negative emotions. Embarrassment, etc.

Dark Red: Tension, anger, hatred. One of the danger colors. Stay away from this individual. If this is an entity like a ghost, this is a malevolent spirit and should be avoided. This is strong emotion mixed with darkness and can signal an ill intent.

Pink: Joy, elation, frivolity, at play, sometimes an enlightened state at rest. A loving or at-peace presence. A good aura to see, though rare. Can be seen around someone climaxing sexually or experiencing bliss. Otherwise, more often seen in angelic presences. 

Orange: Courage, overcoming a challenge. Enjoyment, success, confidence, motivation. This seems to be the color of contentment. It is usually paired with activity however, such as work that the individual enjoys. We also see this in athletic, martial art, or other skilled crafts being performed by an adept.

Yellow: Open and communicative. Insightful, mentally alert, easy going, possibly clairvoyant. This is a color of mental activity and acuity. We see this when one is engaged with reading or otherwise learning, taking a test, or flooded with stimulants like caffeine or Adderall. They are currently sharp and ready. It can also signal they are alerted as in suspicious or looking for something. One of the most common sightings.

Green: Teacher, growth, regeneration, healing qualities, neutral, comforting, relaxed presence. This is often seen around those people you tend to feel comfortable going to for counsel. They have a nurturing persona to them that even animals are attracted to. Of the handful of common colors to see, this is slightly more rare. It is seen when someone is literally actively healing as in recovering from injury or rejuvenating from being sick. If you find this person hasn't been sick or injured, they may have great potential for healing and teaching.

Blue: Balanced. Sensitive, peaceful harmony, at ease. New growth, freshness and spontaneity. Social and charismatic. This is a color we see quite a bit especially in those who are humorous and social butterflies. But not always. Sometimes quiet ones are seen with this aura, and it has been found that in these moments they feel relaxed or that there is a new experience that they feel good about. This could very well be THE most common color you will see. It seems to denote a neutral state and you will even see those who are sleeping donning this color.

Violet: Spirituality or deep thought. This is a high energy wavelength. Those who are presently scrying or engaged in the Arcane. Quite transcended. If they are not presently actively engaged in a spiritual activity then this person has extreme potential for spiritual affairs or psychic types of tendencies. We see this with higher levels of our own members or people who are already gifted and have made leaps and bounds in spiritual cultivation. These are often deep, talented and wise people or entities.

Brown: Down to earth. Sensual, even sexual. When you see this aura usually you will find that they are organized in nature, usually pragmatic or practical or even rigid, but not always. It has more to do with balance. This seems to be the expression of the rational or logical left brain, but there is usually a characteristic that is hospitable, warm and intimate. It is a comforting and trustworthy presence to be around essentially and has a more rich and complex dynamic that needs exploring further. Depth of character.

Grey or Dull: Business mode. Often seen when people are working on autopilot (NPC). Organized or bored. We also see this when people sleep but they are not yet dreaming. Or when one suffers from severe mental disablement. Whereas you might see an orange aura with those who enjoy their work, you see grey around those who dislike what they are doing or are otherwise checked out mentally and spiritually. This can also simply be that they are just too busy physically to have much internal activity. If you look hard enough there is almost always an underlying color that is so dull that it appears greyish. For further context, try to make out that underlying color.

White: The highest energy output. Purity and energy. Newness as in a newborn or one who has been 'Reborn'. Clarity, innocence, balance of all energies, possibly an angelic presence. Often seen surrounding either newborns or the newly dead as well as beneficent entities. The most likely way you will see this is around those who are born again. That is to say those who have undergone a spiritual transformation and are starting anew. Otherwise, this is a special and significant individual if you consistently see them shrouded with a white aura. This however is also the most commonly mistaken color to see because of a known trick of the eye and the photoreceptors. Also, pure white is very rare and like grey there is usually an underlying color or two that are of lighter shades and coming across as white.

Black: Usually Injury, dysfunction, or disease. Absence as in Anti-matter, something which is capable of absorbing or sapping energy. Can entail wickedness. More often we see this when someone is diseased, especially with cancer, or struggling with severe mental problems like depression or suicidal tendencies. We have even seen this when someone is merely overworked, so be careful about jumping to conclusions about this person. If it is an entity however such as a ghost, this appearance is created by an absence of light. This does not always mean a threatening presence, but often does. Trickster spirits all the way to demons. It can simply be such an old spirit that there are no longer any photons attached to it. But even then it should be noted that any spirit that old that is still attached to the world and still not absolved... well, there is likely a troublesome reason. 'Shadow people', the 'hat man' and others are quite popular sightings. In the same way that purely white or grey colors are rare but are usually underlying colors with lighter or duller shades, you will see darkened shades of colors which offer a lot of interpretation. For instance, an underlying color of yellow that is being clouded and darkened with black might mean that they are mentally consumed with negative thoughts and obsessions, perhaps jealousy or other crippling worry.

Silver: Sincere, idealistic and fresh. A crisp clean feeling and refreshing presence is felt with an aura such as this. Many successful speakers, business leaders and pastors have this quality of aura. This is either someone who IS trustworthy or someone who is such a great charismatic presence they naturally charm others by projecting idealistic feelings and qualities. They can easily be tricksters or mercurial in nature, rapidly changing. Because of this changing quality and the rarity, among other reasons, this may be the aura type we currently know the least about.

Gold: Wisdom, spiritual mastery/Enlightened. Though you would think that the color would be hard to discern from yellow or orange, there is usually no mistaking this aura. There is often a feeling behind this aura and the aura will be bigger. It will seem to influence all around it with a shiny pulsating consistency. It is hard to explain but this is also among the rarest occurrences. To see a gold aura means you are in the presence of a spiritual master or World Teacher. One of great world significance. Someone who will do great things. Otherwise it is a particularly powerful entity.

 Not everybody will be able to see auras starting out.
To increase your chances of seeing it, you may begin training your eyes (but more importantly your pineal gland) by standing in a mirror in a darkly lit space. Too much light will crowd out the subtle light being projected by the body. Try to achieve the light quality and the amount of light you might see outdoors during a full moon. 
It helps to engage the third eye while attempting to see auras. We will train on this at Level 1: Magician in classes related to reaching a more subconscious state.

Don't worry if you are not able to see them starting out. When you start training in the Pentacle, you will be taught to feel them if nothing else. One important thing to cover right now is to understand that when you are seeing someone's aura this is their present psychological and emotional state. It does not necessarily reflect that person and their qualities as a whole. That is to say, if you were to see someone with a pitch black aura, many times a person might judge that individual as wicked immediately. This is not the case! You cannot jump to conclusions like this. They could simply have cancer or be mentally sick at the moment. The aura is a very delicate, impressionable, mutable, mercurial thing. It can change on a whim. It is much better to get at the root of what is causing that state of feeling.


But all of this so far merely covers the appearance of this light body.
1. What really is this aura?
2. What is its function?
3. What can you do with it?

1. The aura is the same thing as what has been called the Soul, the Astral Body or your ghost. It is what is left behind when the body dies that retains your personality and temperament. It is the vehicle for those who experience out-of-body experiences (O.B.E.s), near-death experiences (NDEs) as well as the vehicle for reaching transcended dimensions such as what has been called heaven. It is what people see when they see ghosts. In many ways, it IS your soul, and there is a distinguished difference between soul and spirit.
We will be covering more about how to perform Astral Travel if you stick with us for that long.
Astral Travel is a good way to begin using your aura to explore realms, starting with a safer one.
Let's look at some ghost videos to get a feel for what ghosts' auras can look like and practice at identifying their temperaments through the color, our feelings about them and visual cues.

One other topic brought up, O.B.E.s or Out of Body Experiences, and also N.D.E.s or Near Death Experiences may interest you. This video, although long, shows the debate going on and exemplifies a slow paradigm shift in science related to spiritual phenomena. Just how seriously the scientific community takes these topics is very slowly starting to change. However sluggishly, it seems that modern intellectuals are beginning to push back a little at the discrediting and censorship of this type of information.
It also gives good insight into how our auras are engaged upon death.

2. The function of this light body is actually a more intimate and personal version of you than your physical body. It is the you behind all of your experiences in this life, behind the personality mask you have had to put on to survive, closer to how God made you in His image. One step removed from your body as well as the mundane 3rd dimension. Yet it still acts upon this dimension. It is your presence, your true personality when unaffected by this world. Beyond just the physical self, but rather the essence of you that transcends life and death. It is your your real Being. It can have far-reaching effects and affects everything around you in subtle more subconscious ways. People often feel this presence before you ever say anything, and it is typically their very first impression of you without them knowing it. Animals and plants can sense it as well. It can be anything from a negative influence that sucks the air out of a room to a healing sensation others experience. And it can vary in size, or more accurately, in range. Some auras have been recorded as having influence miles away. 


(The closest estimation of our understanding of the subtle bodies/auric layers.)




















3. As stated above, the aura has been called the 'Astral Body' that you can use to travel outside of your physical body to explore or gather information or even transcend dimensions. It can also be utilized to act as a continuously acting, working force of your spiritual power that surrounds you. It can be a healing force as Jesus exhibited or other things like a permanent spiritual shield. Depending on what abilities or qualities you want it to have, there are ways to condition the aura and access its power latent within us. No matter which color of Focus you choose, you will be training your aural awareness as you advance. It is not just a Red Focus pursuit, but important in all spiritual affairs.

Etheric Bodies.jpg

Kirlian photography was an experiment of the past used to try and prove the aura, but it actually required an outside source of electricity. These images were simply showing the electrical current as it was conducted through the body and discharged. Therefore, these are not images of the aura. However, it can still be used to show how the body assimilates energy and how the energy disperses through the body. It could theoretically be showing the aura's form and range by showing where the electricity surges through the aura outside the body, but this is hard to prove scientifically. There are also claims that in more spiritually trained individuals the electricity takes on different qualities while coursing through the body and this is shown through different color patterns the electric takes on in the Kirlian photographs. This is something we would like to investigate and reproduce as one of the experiments conducted by the Brown Focus. There are many exciting avenues to follow currently relating to the scientific investigations of these matters.

Astral traveling can be dangerous so don't yet attempt this until after you have a good handle on Apotrope. For now, try and actually feel your aura. It is distinctly more corporeal or tangible in the upper half of your body. Take both of your hands and press them together in a prayer-like fashion. The handblade form of prayer with the fingers pointed up.

Pull the two hands apart while retaining the handblade shape until your hands are about 6 inches (15 cm) apart. Now ever so slightly push them toward each other but not touching. You will notice a sensation like a fuzzy electromagnetic field. Keep hovering them closer and closer until you feel this sensation. You may even notice a slight pushback as if there is a foam or other light material between your hands. Keep increasing the distance between your hands and lightly pushing them toward each other to get a sense of the size of your auric field in its natural state. Then repeat this process while actually trying to push energy out of your palms and see if you notice any difference. This is also a good practice to do in the mirror and many report actually seeing color appearing between their hands and elsewhere.

Getting to know your aura is important in many of the fields we cover. Feeling others' auras can give us profound insight into spiritual matters concerning other people who we want to help. This appears to others what they might call 'psychic'. When one seems to know what they are thinking and feeling. It can lead to diagnosing illness and spiritual healing. It will also make you more aware of what a ghostly presence feels like for those who get into paranormal investigation with us. It is the start to literally feeling the energy and the energy movement needed in all spiritual work. The aura is an important vehicle for engaging with the spirit realm in general, so getting to know it is very important.

You may become aware of a whole other side of life you hadn't noticed before. Some people inadvertently and unconsciously use their auras to leech energy. You might start to notice certain people that act like incubuses or succubae, actually constantly sucking energy from those around them. They typically also have a deep void that they are trying to fill so they need constant attention whether sexually, emotionally or otherwise. But more than taking your time, they are actually sapping your soul without knowing it. You may find yourself spiritually and energetically taxed after being around them. And some more predatory people actually ARE doing this intentionally.

Some engage in small spiritual wars pushing their auras back and forth between one another. Or testing another person by aurally feeling you out or trying to drown out your aura with their own. In short, there is a whole other field going on that has been invisible to most, that you will slowly become aware of and actually start seeing. Tapping in to the Aura (or the Astral Plane) is a bit like being able to switch the frequency of a radio to a different station. Suddenly you have access to a channel that is the auric field.

This is important because as stated before, plants, animals and everything living has a distinct aura. And the level of reality auras are on transcends language and other mental barriers. This is why animals can be attracted to certain individuals like St. Francis of 
Assisi for instance. This is also the medium through which druids and other nature attuned practitioners may 'communicate' with trees and other plants/animals.
The very World has a soul. Called Anima Mundi or Spiritus Mundi.

Below you will find some buttons to begin playing around with your aura. Try to familiarize yourself with its substance and develop its functions.

-The 'Aura Shield' link is a meditation platform to try and 'build' your aura up. While hearing the vibrations of the music you should start by feeling the musical vibrations pulsate through you. Your goal is to get the energy to flow around you. You may tense your muscles or do whatever you feel you have to do to build up the aural field that surrounds your body like a sheath to start blockading the frequencies from penetrating through you, but rather wash over you and go around.

-The 'Raise Vibration' button is a good introduction to practical ways in raising your energy levels. Always remember to continue your research on things that interest you. It should be pretty clear by now that there is a vast wealth of information and resources available to you out there. And the special set of skills you develop while you go over these basics can give you a special edge when you reach Level 1- the role of Magician.

-'See your Aura' is one easier way to try and catch glimpses of your aura color. Our eyes catch light easier in our periphery than looking straight at something. You will notice this while looking up at the night sky. You can actually see stars out of the corner of your eye better than looking straight at them.

'Your development' is a rundown of some of the things you may have been experiencing if your Third Eye is beginning to be activated.

There's a long road ahead for those who want to truly develop spiritual abilities.Your spiritual power comes with a ton of practice, training and cultivation. One pivotal way to develop this and enliven the aura is through awakening the chakras.
