Aura's About the Aura The aura is an energy field that surrounds and penetrates the human body. Clairvoyants & healers describe it as an egg-shaped field of lights and colors. The aura extends beyond the body anywhere from a few inches to several feet. A special type of photography called Kirilian photography has even been able to capture the aura on film. There are many different layers of energy in the aura, each existing at a different vibration. In order to easily remember the primary layers use the following example: Suppose someone you know begins to exhibit angry behavior. At first, their angry energy hits the outer or spiritual layer or your aura. You shrug it off. You look at them with compassion and assume they must be having a bad day. Now, the next time you see the same person, they are angry again.Their energy begins to filter into the mental layer of your aura. You will think about their behavior and wonder what's wrong, whether or not you did something to upset them, and how you can help them. If the person continues to be angry around you, their energy will filter down even closer into the emotional layer of the aura. Now you may be upset when you see the person coming towards you. You may feel angry yourself, sad, or simply irritated. Finally, if the bad behavior continues, even your physical energy--your body--will be affected. Your muscles may tense, you may stoop, or straighter up in a defensive posture. Chances are likely you won't even realize that you are actually tensing your body as they approach. As this example illustrates, the aura can be divided into four very important layers: (1) the spiritual layer or outermost layer that records all of your souls experiences (2) the mental layer that contains your thought forms and deep-seated beliefs (3) the emotional energy body that contains your sadnesses, joys, angers, and all the rest of the human emotions you experience, and finally (4) the physical layer which is your body. Esoteric literature divides the physical layer into additional layers including one close to the physical body called the "etheric body." Most people who see auras do not distinguish between these layers because in truth they all overlap. Instead the clairvoyants notice the louds of light -- energy that is moving, stuck, or vibrating with different patterns and colors.  ©All Articles ©2000 Ann Albers, all rights reserved.     A Bee bg
