An aura is an emanation said to surround humans, (& animals). Chiefly encircling the head, and supposed to proceed from the nervous system. It is described as a cloud of light suffused with various different colors; this is seen clairvoyantly, being imperceptible to the physical sight. Some of the elements composing the aura are projected from the body, others from the astral principles.
ETHERIC AURA
The etheric aura extends about 2 inches out from the physical body & is usually a shade of blue in color. The shade of blue relates to the physical condition & health of the physical body. Athletes have strong etheric auras of a deeper blue in shade. In the etheric aura, you feel all the sensations, both pain and pleasure.

EMOTIONAL AURA
The emotional aura extends about 2 - 4 inches from the physical body & appears as rainbow colored clouds. This aura is associated with feelings. Positive feelings create brighter colors, negative feelings create darker colors.

FEELING THE AURA
One theory on being able to feel your aura is: - draw a circle on your left hand using your right fingertip, don't let your finger touch your hand, keep it at a distance of about 1/2 an inch, move slowly and you should be able to feel the power of your aura.
How to read the Aura
Auras can be seen physically, or sensed psychically. One way to see someone's aura is to have the subject stand in front of a white background. If you look at the person for a while you’ll see some sort of wavy lines of energies, and also maybe a couple of aura colors. “Stand in front of a mirror at a distance of about half a meter, with a wall of neutral color some distance behind you. Alternatively, get a friend to stand about 1 meter away from you and 2 meters from a neutral wall. Relax, and breathe deeply and evenly. Focus your eyes on the wall behind the head. Gently sway your body from side to side (or tell your friend to if looking at someone else). As you stare past the outline of the head, you should be able to see an envelope of light - it's an aura! The room and subject should be illuminated by subdued lighting, but not in darkness or direct sunlight. Do not worry if you cannot see color at this stage, in time you may.” The auric colors cannot be adequately described in terms of the ordinary colors seen in the physical vision, but they are roughly described as follows:
ROSE ~ pure affection
BRILLIANT RED ~ anger & force
DIRTY RED ~ passion & sensuality
YELLOW (of the purest lemon) ~ the highest type of intellectual activity
ORANGE ~ intellect used for selfish ends, pride and ambition
BROWN ~ avarice
GREEN ~ variable significances, its root meaning is the placing of ones self in the position of another, in its lowest aspect it represents deceit and jealousy, higher up in the emotional gamut, it signifies adaptability
BLUE ~ indicates religious feeling and devotion
PURPLE ~ represents psychic faculty, spirituality power rising from knowledge and occult pre-eminence.
