Auras

Some psychics read aura's when giving a psychic reading. What exactly is this?

Auragrams (drawing or pictures of auras) can be used to find areas in a person s health, be it physical, emotional or spiritual, that need healing. The best way to begin doing this is to have your subject stand against a wall, preferably off white and softly lit. This will allow you to see if the colors in the aura, whereas a brightly lit white background will make it nearly impossible.

Have a collection of colored pencils or crayons, and a piece of off white paper, or translucent vellum. Draw an outline of the person s figure. It doesn't have to be perfect, just a general shape so that you are able to place the colors you see.

Next, draw three concentric circles around the body. The first will be the physical, the second will be the emotional and the outermost will be the spiritual. Now, focus on the area closest to the person s body. What do you see? Begin to color in any blocks of color you see. If there are areas that are clouded or dark these are areas that may be in need of healing.

Don't make too big a deal out of it as people tend to be very sensitive about their health and what you're seeing may not be serious. Just note that it is an area that needs looking into. This first layer will cover the body outline that you've drawn. Start at the heart and work your way out. You may notice that the charka areas (top of head, forehead, throat, solar plexus, navel area, womb, hands and feet, etc.) may each have their own separate colors. They should, at the very least, be brighter than other areas, and I will speak more in my next article about the significance of this and how to interpret them.

Once you've shaded in the first circle, move on to the next. This is the emotional health. Focus on the area slightly outside the body of your subject. What do you see? Are there any sparks, streaks, clouds or dark areas? Note all of these.

Do the same for the spiritual layer, starting about a foot from the body. The extension of the spiritual layer depends on the person. You will notice if someone feels uncomfortable that this layer will shrink considerably, however if they have unlimited personal space it will grow. This is important to remember as we all need time to ourselves to allow our spirits to expand and rest.

Color this layer in the outermost circle. Once you are finished, look it over. Are there any predominant colors? Are there many areas that are dark or clouded? Note these off to the side of the image.

I will speak in my next article on how to interpret the colors you see, and how to begin healing any areas that are not congruent with the rest of the aura.
