Everybody has the ability to see the aura. For beginners a low light is the best way to start. Turn out the lights and lay on the bed. Leave the window curtains open and let the natural light flow in.As you are laying on the bed hold your hands out at full distance in front of you. Dont stare hard but rather just gaze at your hands. Moving your hands slowly, bring your fingertips together until they are almost touching. You will notice a cloudy blue haze appear around your finger. This is the etheric aura.
To feel an aura, start by drawing a circle on your left hand using your right fingertip. Dont let your finger touch your hand, keep it at a distance of about a half inch. Move slowly. You will feel the power of your aura. Don't worry if you don't, as you will be used to your own aura and it may be hard to feel. Also constant practice will help you improve this technique and skill.
Another Method you can use when seeing Auras of other objects and other people is, to start with an object, sit down and relax, dim the lights, then stare at the desired object, and then allow your vision to blure, in a way that you will start seeing double,and look around the object to see the Aura,it should work, if you dont succeed, dont give up, keep practicing, and be patient, you'll get there eventually....
Also it is important to know that there are many ways in which to sense energies and auras and each person is differnet. Start with this way, then look at others and try them out, then devolp the skill the way which feels most comfortable for you.
