The life force that surrounds you — the aura

(Part I of III) 

AS in the past columns, we’ve tackled negative energies and how it affects us and how to make our surroundings charged with positive energies. 

Now let’s talk about your aura. Is there such a thing as the aura? Doesn’t it sound too new age?  Yes, the aura is real. It is scientific and tangible. 

What is the aura?

The aura is the electromagnetic field that emanates from living or non-living things.  In short, the magnetic field is actually the energy coming from within the body and can be felt, seen and measured.  It is actual energy that can be scientifically quantified or measured by gadgets such as the electromagnetic field meter that is being used for industrial purposes.

The aura reflects what kind of energies do you have. People sometimes say, “Ganda ang aura mo!”  Or they would notice how blooming or sad you are.  Folks, whether you like it or not, even if you camouflage or hide feelings, your aura will still show your real state of mind and feelings.

The aura has several layers.  The physical, psychological, spiritual, and emotional, among others, but I will make it simple for you to understand. What you feel deep inside will exude as energy and will be felt or seen by others.  

Can the aura be seen by everyone?

No. Seeing the aura is something one must practice doing.  There are focusing techniques that require a lot of patience and diligent hours devoted to being able to see it with the bare eyes.  During my younger years, as I was devoting time on harnessing my gifts, I dedicated one to two hours daily in meditation and staring at objects. 

However, the aura can be felt by everyone. It can be sensed easily by simply being “open” to energies. Being open is letting things flow, not making any judgmental or logical conclusions. It is simply letting your senses work and let insight come in your thoughts. Being open is not becoming too logical nor easy to seek explanation or reason. 

It can also be captured using a Kirlian camera. This camera was developed in 1939 by two Russians, Semyon Kirlian and his wife, Valentina.  Semyon Kirlian, an electrical engineer, developed the Kirlian photography after noticing a glow emanating from a patient’s skin who was being treated in a hospital. 

Making the long scientific story short, images that were produced from the photographic film that went through several processes, showed a certain glow or life force. These captured energies had different impressions or glow and were called the “aura.”

Aura photography ranges from $80 to $100. It depends on the level of the Kirlian Camera and how extensive the analysis is. I needed only the portrait since I know how to interpret the aura by heart. Being an aura reader myself, I will make do with the oil pastel drawings to illustrate what my “eyes” see.

In the next column, I will cover how the aura affects others.
