All of us – even plants, animals, crystals and places – are surrounded by an aura: a three-dimensional elliptical energy field composed, to varying degrees, of the seven colours of the rainbow, emitted by the seven chakras. And we all have the innate ability to sense or see this field if we dig deep enough. Our aura reveals the state of our mood and health and even our personality, and it can be enhanced or depleted by our actions and external forces. Auras will introduce you to the life-enhancing effect of aura awareness and the benefits of a healthy aura. In Part One, discover the ‘Anatomy of the Aura’: what an aura does, what a chakra is, the seven layers of the aura (from the ‘etheric body’ though the ‘astral body’ to the ‘causal body’), the chakra system (from the ‘root’ to the ‘crown’), how energy flows and colour visualization. Part Two is all about ‘Taking Care of Your Aura’, with guidance and exercises: ways to shift your consciousness, using the four fundamental ‘energy tools’ (Awareness, Intention, Presence and Empathy), how to use a crystal to cleanse your aura, smudging for purification, how to strengthen your aura, how to protect your aura, how to interpret your aura using your different senses and understand the meanings of the colours. The clear text, vibrant design and inspirational imagery of this book will set you on the path to feeling fantastic, having more energy and, most importantly, personal and spiritual evolution.
