Aura colours

"Human auras emanate light, energy, sound and colour."

All living beings, objects and planet are surrounded with rainbow-like colours.

The human aura is also divided into bodies or layers, each one representing different states of awareness, of emotionality, mental activity and spiritual development.

Life vital information

Besides carrying information about our present lives, these layers also carry with them karmas, obstacles, thoughts, emotions and  suffering.

Therefore, while reading a person's aura its important to focus on each layer individually and all the information it contains. And this information often comes across through colour, symbols, though forms and messages.

Next we gathered a brief overview of the most common aura colours. Although there's a wide array or colours with very subtle variations, we will only mention the most common colours and often used during aura readings.
