Aura Explained

Yesterday I wrote about charisma and aura. Today, I will try and give more information about the aura. We now know that aura is nothing but the bio-energy or electro-magnetic field surrounding every living being. Even plants, trees, animals have an aura. The aura has colors of the rainbow and each color is associated with the chakras or energy centres or glands in the human body. The aura has seven layers each layer connected to each chakra this in turn is said to give rise to seven auric bodies or planes. The first one is the physical aura or etheric plane which is closest to the physical body and represents our physical health. The next one is the emotional aura plane and as the name suggest it is directly linked to your emotions and its color changes as per your mood — if you are in a bad mood, it will appear dull or smudged. The mental plane is related to logic, reasoning and thoughts — this is the third layer from the body. Beyond this layer is the astral body plane which deals with your spiritual health. This plane also stores your capacity to love. The Etheric plane is the fifth level which is connected with your psychic abilities. A clear etheric plane helps you tap into other’s energy and connect with those who are on a similar wavelength. The celestial plane is related to your dreams an intuition. It is also the plane of enlightenment — a person with a strong celestial aura tends to be extremely creative. The final one is the causal plane — this harmonises all the other layers and basically guides you on your path in life.

The colors of the aura are connected to the chakras. A brief explanation of positive attributes of the same is given below.

Red: (Muladhar or Root chakra) — indicates a well-grounded, energetic and a strong-willed person. Orange: (Swadhishthan or Sacral chakra) — indicates an adventurous, thoughtful, considerate person. Yellow: (Nabhi or navel chakra) — indicates a creative, relaxed, friendly personality. Green: (Hriday or Heart chakra) — indicates social, communicator, nurturing nature in a person. Blue: (Vishuddhi or Throat chakra) — indicates an intuitive, spiritual, freethinking person. Indigo: (Agya or third eye chakra) — indicates curious, spiritually connected, gentle person. Violet: (Sahastrar or crown chakra) — indicates a wise, intellectual, independent person.

With meditation all these chakras and auric planes are formed which creates the auric field around your body. Seers can see the aura; a good strong aura has vibrant colors whereas an unhealthy aura is dull and dark in color. Para-medicine uses aura healing to treat diseases or sicknesses before it affects the physical body — research on this is on-going and it has great potential for preventive medicine.

The best way to remain healthy with a clean and vibrant aura is to live healthy, remain positive, be helpful and compassionate, meditate regularly, banish negativity from your life and your radiance will reflect the state of your mental and spiritual well-being.
