How To See Your Aura

Learning how to see your aura and the aura of those around you is not at all difficult. It can be learned by anyone within a very short period of time. To practice on yourself, all you will need is a relatively large mirror through which you can see at least the upper half of your body.

1. Choose an area where you will not be disturbed for at least 10-15 mins. Stand before a large mirror through which you can clearly see the immediate area around your head, shoulders, and chest. A bathroom mirror often serves as the ideal size. You can either sit or stand for this exercise. The important point is that you should be able to clearly see your upper body through the mirror. If possible, ensure that the wall behind you is free from objects such as towels and pictures - you want to ideally see only yourself in the reflection, and not other objects. If there is a wall behind you, then stand against it. The lighter the color of the wall, the easier the aura will be to see.

2. Stand approximately 2-5ft back from the mirror. While gazing through the mirror, focus your eyes about 3 to 4 inches above your head, and to either slightly to the right or the left. Keep your gaze focused on this point throughout the entire exercise and do not become distracted and look elsewhere. Relax your mind, and begin to breath deeply and rhythmically.

4. As you continue to focus your gaze, out of your peripheral vision you will begin to see a rim of energy surrounding your body. Continue to hold your gaze steady on the appointed spot, and do NOT look at this rim (you will find it will fade or disappear if you do). The rim of energy will become stronger and brighter. At this point, you may also see other colors forming around your body out of your peripheral vision. Continue to relax, breathe deeply, and simply observe with your eyes gazing at the same spot.

Continue for as long as you feel comfortable. At first, you may only see a small, thin rim of energy surrounding your body. You may see a bright, white rim, or you may see one or more colors. With practice, you will find that your ability to see more will grow with each session. The following daily affirmation can be used which will help you expand your ability:

    I now become consciously aware of my multidimensional selves.
    I can clearly see my aura and the aura of all living things that surround me.

Use a notebook to keep track of the different colors and shapes what you see as the sessions progress. You will also find that as your ability to see your aura improves, you will begin to see the auras of those around you. Sometimes it will happen unexpectedly (for example, during a conversation). This is often the case with individuals who are excited, angry, or frustrated - hazes of red and orange color may be suddenly become visible around their head or shoulders). As you learn to see auras, you will feel a great sense of excitement as a whole new world of perception opens up to you!
