The Spiritual Science of Aura and Energy Fields
The human aura is an electromagnetic field that surrounds and interpenetrates the physical body, containing information about your emotional, mental, and spiritual state. Understanding the science and spirituality of auras opens a gateway to deeper self-awareness and intuitive connection.
What Is the Aura?
The aura is a multi-layered energy field that extends beyond your physical body. It's composed of electromagnetic energy that vibrates at different frequencies, creating colors, patterns, and textures that reflect your inner state. While invisible to most people, those with developed intuitive abilities can perceive and interpret these energy fields.
Scientific Basis
The aura has a scientific foundation:
Electromagnetic Fields: Every cell in your body generates electrical impulses. These create measurable electromagnetic fields that extend beyond your physical form.
Kirlian Photography: This photographic technique captures the electrical discharge around objects, providing visual evidence of energy fields.
Biofield Science: Research in biofield science studies the energy fields that surround living organisms, finding measurable effects on health and well-being.
Quantum Physics: At the quantum level, everything is energy in motion. Your thoughts, emotions, and physical state all emit specific frequencies.
The Seven Aura Layers
Your aura consists of seven distinct layers, each corresponding to different aspects of your being:
1. The Etheric Body (Physical Layer): Closest to your physical body, this layer reflects your physical health and vitality. It appears as a thin, blue-gray light and extends about 1-2 inches from your body.
2. The Emotional Body: This layer reflects your emotional state and feelings. It appears as colorful, fluid energy that changes with your emotions. It extends 1-3 inches from your body.
3. The Mental Body: This layer contains your thoughts, beliefs, and mental patterns. It appears as bright yellow light and extends 3-8 inches from your body.
4. The Astral Body: This layer connects you to the astral plane and reflects your relationships and connections with others. It appears as rainbow-colored energy and extends 6-12 inches from your body.
5. The Etheric Template: This layer holds the blueprint for your physical form and life purpose. It appears as a dark blue grid pattern and extends 1.5-2 feet from your body.
6. The Celestial Body: This layer connects you to divine love and spiritual ecstasy. It appears as soft, pastel colors and extends 2-3 feet from your body.
7. The Ketheric Template: This is the outermost layer, connecting you to your highest self and the divine. It appears as golden light and extends 3-5 feet from your body.
Aura Colors and Their Meanings
The colors in your aura reflect your current state, emotions, and spiritual development:
Red: Physical vitality, passion, anger, or stress. Bright red indicates strong life force; dark red may indicate anger or physical issues.
Orange: Creativity, joy, sensuality, or emotional healing. Bright orange shows enthusiasm; muddy orange may indicate emotional blocks.
Yellow: Mental activity, optimism, or intellectual pursuits. Bright yellow indicates clarity; pale yellow may indicate mental fatigue.

Indigo: Intuition, psychic ability, or deep wisdom. Bright indigo shows strong intuitive gifts; dark indigo may indicate confusion.
Violet/Purple: Spiritual awareness, mysticism, or connection to the divine. Bright violet shows spiritual development; dark violet may indicate spiritual arrogance.
White: Purity, spiritual protection, or connection to source energy. White often appears in highly evolved individuals.
Black: Protection, grief, or blocked energy. While often seen as negative, black can also indicate strong protection.
Gold: Divine connection, enlightenment, or spiritual mastery. Gold is rare and indicates high spiritual development.
How Psychic Readers Interpret Auras
Skilled psychic readers can perceive and interpret auras through:
Clairvoyant Sight: Seeing the colors, patterns, and textures of the energy field.
Clairsentient Feeling: Sensing the energy through physical sensations or emotional impressions.
Intuitive Knowing: Receiving information about the aura through direct knowing.
Aura Photography: Using specialized cameras that capture the energy field.
What Readers Look For:
Color Patterns: The dominant colors reveal your current state and needs.

Size: An expanded aura may indicate openness but also vulnerability. A contracted aura may indicate protection or withdrawal.
Holes or Tears: Gaps in the aura may indicate energy leaks or areas needing healing.
Shapes: The shape of your aura reveals your energy state—rounded indicates balance, while jagged may indicate stress.
Chakras and the Aura
Your chakras are energy centers that spin within your aura, drawing in and distributing energy throughout your system. Each chakra corresponds to specific colors and aspects of your being:
Root Chakra (Red): Grounding, survival, physical security
Sacral Chakra (Orange): Creativity, sexuality, emotional expression
Solar Plexus Chakra (Yellow): Personal power, will, self-esteem
Heart Chakra (Green): Love, compassion, relationships
Throat Chakra (Blue): Communication, truth, self-expression
Third Eye Chakra (Indigo): Intuition, insight, psychic ability
Crown Chakra (Violet/White): Spiritual connection, divine awareness
When chakras are balanced, your aura appears bright, clear, and harmonious. Blocked or imbalanced chakras create distortions in your aura.
Cleansing and Protecting Your Aura
Your aura can pick up energy from others, environments, and situations. Regular cleansing and protection are essential:
Smudging: Burn sage, palo santo, or other cleansing herbs, allowing the smoke to pass through your energy field.
Salt Baths: Soaking in salt water helps cleanse and ground your aura.
Visualization: Imagine white or golden light surrounding and cleansing your aura.
Crystals: Certain crystals, like selenite or black tourmaline, can cleanse and protect your aura.
Energy Healing: Reiki, acupuncture, or other energy healing modalities can balance and cleanse your aura.
Aura Reading Practice
You can develop your ability to see and read auras:
Soft Focus: Look at a person against a white or neutral background. Soften your gaze and look slightly past them, noticing colors around their body.
Peripheral Vision: Use your peripheral vision, which is more sensitive to subtle energy.
Practice with Plants: Start by observing the energy fields around plants, which are often easier to see.
Meditation: Regular meditation enhances your sensitivity to subtle energy.
Trust Your Intuition: Even if you don't see colors clearly, trust the impressions and feelings you receive.
The Aura and Health
Your aura reflects your physical, emotional, and mental health:
Physical Health: The etheric layer shows your physical vitality. Gaps or dark areas may indicate health issues.
Emotional Health: The emotional layer reveals your feelings and emotional patterns. Bright, flowing colors indicate emotional health.
Mental Health: The mental layer shows your thoughts and beliefs. Clear, bright yellow indicates mental clarity.
Spiritual Health: The outer layers reflect your spiritual development and connection to the divine.
Regular aura reading can help you identify areas needing attention before they manifest as physical or emotional issues.
Aura Photography
Aura photography uses specialized cameras that measure the electrical conductivity of your skin and translate it into colors. While not a perfect representation of your actual aura, it can provide insights into your energy state.
Types of Aura Photography:
Kirlian Photography: Captures the electrical discharge around objects
Aura Cameras: Measure biofeedback and translate it into colors
Bio-Well Imaging: Uses gas discharge visualization to show energy fields
Interpreting Aura Photos:
Color Placement: Where colors appear in the photo (left/right, top/bottom) has meaning
Color Intensity: Bright, clear colors indicate strong energy; pale colors may indicate blocks
Color Combinations: Multiple colors reveal the complexity of your energy state
The Living Aura

Your Thoughts: Positive thoughts brighten your aura; negative thoughts can darken it
Your Emotions: Strong emotions create immediate changes in your aura colors
Your Health: Physical health directly affects your aura's appearance
Your Environment: The energy of places and people you're around influences your aura
Your Spiritual Practice: Meditation, prayer, and spiritual practices enhance and brighten your aura
Understanding and working with your aura is a powerful tool for self-awareness, healing, and spiritual growth. As you develop your ability to perceive and interpret auras, you gain deeper insight into yourself and others, creating opportunities for healing, connection, and transformation.
Remember, your aura is a reflection of your inner state. By working to balance your chakras, process your emotions, and maintain your physical health, you create a bright, clear, and harmonious aura that supports your highest good and protects you from negative influences.
