For most of my life, I didn’t even know what an aura is
I grew up Christian and was very limited in my knowledge of…
Well… everything spiritual
I didn’t understand energy, spirits, auras, or anything that didn’t involve common Christian practice
Please note that I am not putting down Christianity
It was just not for me
I started moving away from my religion in College when I was learning about many things that I was not taught growing up
It wasn’t until I was 26 years old that I stumbled into witchcraft and felt at home for the first time
But aura reading isn’t really witchcraft
It was just something that I learned about when learning about witchcraft
It immediately fascinated me
The idea that someone can see auras is amazing to me
And that started my journey
A journey that I am still on
What is an aura?
An aura sounds intimidating but it is just the energy field that comes from all living things
This energy field is full of information about the creature that it comes from
The only thing is that you need to have your third eye open to see auras
It is a very spiritual practice
Most people have the ability to see auras, but they have forgotten since childhood
It is believed that babies have the ability to see auras
But they forget as they get older and their third eye starts to close
Some people will naturally be able to see auras easier than others
But there is no shame in needing to put in the work
Auras consist of shape, size, color, and shade
Each part of the aura will teach you something different about yourself and whoever you are watching
What you see is also connected to the Chakras
If you actively keep your root chakra open, you will be able to see the energy from root chakra the best
So not only will you want to work on your third eye, but you will be better at seeing auras if you actively keep all your chakras open and healthy
Does everyone have auras?
Everyone and everything is made of energy, and some of that will radiate around them
That energy radiating is an aura
So, yes, everyone has an aura
That aura will change and evolve throughout their life, but they will always have one
What does that mean for me?
Your aura isn’t a good or a bad thing
It is strictly information about you
If you want to know more about yourself and others, then auras are a tool to do that
If not, then it isn’t something to worry about
Having an aura only means something if you want it to
Unless you are trying to hide something big from someone else that can see auras
Then it may affect you
But if you are a real and honest person, there is nothing to worry about
There are not many people that can see them anyways
But I still recommend being a real and good person
What do the auras tell you?
Auras can tell you a lot about yourself and others
The shape can tell you if they are people pleasers, stone-hearted, or balanced
The color can tell you what kind of energy they have and the qualities that they are made of
The intensity can tell you if they have the positive or negative qualities those colors hold
Yellow, for example, can mean joy and happiness
But too intense yellow can mean anxiety
Light colors are a calm version of that energy and dark colors are blocked energy
Black is completely blocked energy
There are a lot of details when it comes to reading auras
So I recommend starting with learning to see them
Then focus on just the color and learn to read the basics
Then you can start paying attention to shape and shade
If you just jump into the deep end, you are more likely to struggle and get frustrated
The most progress is made with the smallest steps
Important notes about people online
If you spend any time on the witchy or spiritual side of social media, you probably have experience with scammers
Don’t accept requests from people without doing some care and research
Often, the account will be fake
Look at the username and see if everything is spent right compared to the actual person you follow
Look at their following
If there are only a few or a couple hundred then they are probably a fake account
Fake accounts usually have a mismatching username stamped onto the videos too
Look at the following side too
A lot of people will follow back when you follow them, but not the majority
So if there is a huge number in the following part and a small number in the followers, then it is likely a fake account
If you get a message from someone, don’t ever send them money
They may claim that they feel something is wrong or that you are cursed
It is a scam
There are a lot of scammers in these social media communities
Don’t be fooled!
