Lesson 7: Changing the Bubble Shield to Different Colors

Depending on the purpose, you may need to change your shield to different colors with each color serving a different purpose. You may even need to combine colors, but, as the color wheel shows, be mindful that primary colors will mix. You do not want to combine colors that will mix into a shade that will not suit your needs at that particular time. This is true for if you try to make your own shade for a single shield, but this rule may not apply when working with more than one layer shield. Multiple layer shields will be covered later in the lessons.

The colors of your aura will meld with your shield as well to produce vivid results. Be mindful of that as well. Your state of mind and personality at that particular time will affect your shield. If you do not know the state of your aura, start simply with the primary colors. Then, you can gradually progress to secondary colors. Colors will also affect you mentally and physically. Bringing about changes to your body and your emotional/thinking state.

If any of this is a worry for you, or if you find your aura does affect the shield colors, you can put a buffer of pure white light between the shield and yourself. The white light will absorb the color of the aura, but also block it from affecting the color of your shield.

A list of colors is below. Primary colors are red, blue and yellow. Secondary colors are green, orange, and purple. Be mindful that the secondary colors will have a mix of both the primary color’s attributes plus their own, leaning to or away from a particular color depending on the hue and shade. For example, green is of blue and yellow, yet, if it’s more towards a blue-green, it will be more peaceful and soothing than if it were towards a green-yellow, in which it would be more bright and cheery.

[Cherry] A friend had come to visit, staying a week with me. She had her son who was about 6 months old. Because of being in a strange place, and away from his father, the child had a hard time sleeping. I would go to the baby and rub his back, encircling him with the color black. Within about 15 minutes, he would be sound asleep.

Gray:

Increases harmony and peacefulness, reduces stress, and aids in protection. It also strengthens physical fragility, and promotes relaxation.

[Luna] How I change colors of the shield is per my purpose. As the colors have general meanings, I will use them as to what I need to. For example, if I want to appear aggressive, I focus my aura to the red range and it will in turn affect the shield color, turning it more red. If I want to go unnoticed, I will focus more for the white colors. Learning, I will use yellow and for need to calm down, the blues.<o:p></o:p>

In Lesson 11, more color meanings will be given. But, for now, use the above as a starting guide.

This makes dealing with the mundane world very helpful as colors affect everyone strongly.

Homework:

1. After creating a bubble shield, imagine your favorite color and change the shield’s color to that. Note: your favorite color may have a different meaning than the above list which is just a general outline.

2. Notice when you feel a strong emotion. Do you ‘feel�?a certain color? For example, do you “see red�? When a situation arises where you do feel strongly and need to calm down, practice changing the color back to a more calming one. If you feel angry, go from ‘red�?to ‘blue�?

3. Practice changing the colors.
