Aura Colors: Discovering your soul shade and its meaning

Have you ever met someone whose presence was immediately warm and calming? Or on the other end, someone whose nervous energy made you uncomfortable? Later then, you’ll chalk that reaction up to: “I don’t know, they just had a certain vibe.”

You’re (probably) not a mind reader– but you’re an aura reader. Everywhere we go, we perceive other people’s energy on the auric field. Likewise, your aura influences how you connect with others and the world around you.

Cool, but what is an aura?

Before we can even exchange hellos, our auras essentially make the first impression for us. An aura, while it sounds mystical and magical, is simply a term for the electromagnetic field that radiates from a person. Like a “breeze” or “breath of air,” your aura looks like colors floating above you, each of which corresponds to your current experience and state.

If this seems a little too ‘woo-woo’ for you, it’s worth noting that even science supports the idea that everything emits different energies. Though it’s rare to see aura colors with our naked eyes, we can naturally feel them. Thus, auras are contagious, which explains why we have a gut reaction when meeting someone for the first time.

If I can’t see aura colors, how can I find out mine?

Sure, the chances of reading aura colors are low– but it’s never zero! Learning how to read your own soul shade also takes a lot of time and effort, unless you possess any psychic powers inside of you. In any case, there are many ways an aura can be deciphered:

Trick #1

Look in the mirror for a minute in front of a white background. Relax and concentrate on a focal point in the middle of your forehead. You’ll begin to see the impression of a halo around your head, starting as soft white light. Keep your gaze fixed on the same spot, and you’ll soon see a color. The color you see surrounding your head and shoulders is your aura.

Trick #2

Stare at your hands for approximately one minute. Set your focus toward your palms facing each other, specifically the space just past your fingertips. Squint your eyes, and you’ll begin to see a fine mist around your hand. Spread your fingers out and let the mist expand. The glow you see radiating from the outside lining of your hands is your aura.

What are the colors and what do they mean?

Now, you’ve figured out how to see aura colors and how to start reading your own. But what do the different aura colors mean, and how do you piece all its meanings together? There’s an art to finding out what they’re all about, so here are the seven colors that make up the auric field:

Red

A red aura means you’re driven by your passions, desires, and emotions. You’re an artist at heart who constantly manifests new goals and finds inspiration through creative outlets. You’re ambitious, brave, and you never shy away from a challenge.

Orange

If you have an orange aura, you’re likely an adrenaline junkie or a risk-taker! You’re one of those people who will strike up a chat and get along with others. You always look for something new and thrilling, thus monotony makes things harder for an energetic like you.

Yellow

When your aura is yellow, you have a bright and sunny disposition. You also tend to overcalculate everything and focus on the material world. You’re very witty, smart, and confident, and many people aspire to be like you. Now, move out the way– the boss is in the building!

Green

Green is the color of healing energy, so if you have a predominantly green aura, you may be a natural-born healer. You always grow in self-love, overcome obstacles, and forgive those who’ve wronged you. With this aura, you’ll be radiating life-changing energy to everything around you.

Purple

Spiritual awareness, emotional awareness, and psychic sentiments are marks of a purple aura. You have a keen mind and the ability to think critically and intuitively. If you are vibrating purple, you’re most definitely open-minded and progressive.

Can my aura change over time?

Yes, your aura colors can and will change over time. Auras are not like astrology, a fixed measure of your personality based on when you were born. You’re not meant to be stagnant, for better or worse. Hence, they are ever-changing based on your mood and where you are in life.

Instead, think of them as your vibe, or like a natural radiofrequency. Depending on your energy and moods, your auras flip through different channels, meaning your aura changes colors. Learning about auras can help you stay aware of your energy, manifest quality company, and attract good vibes.
