The seven auras
When the advanced student carefully studies the human aura, he will find that there are a number of straight, white, very fine lines emanating from the body, and particularly the head, which resemble rays of white light. These are magnetic rays which do not deal directly with the psychical condition of the subject.
The innermost aura will be found to consist of five different coloured bands.
The first will be pure white, the second light blue, the third darker blue, the fourth lemon yellow, the fifth dark red.
The second layer of the aura will be found to be bluish violet, merging into rose. Those two interpenetrate one another forming very beautiful combinations.
The third layer consists of three cloudy zones, the first pink, the second violet, and the third orange.
The fourth layer consists of green, cloud-like waves, tinged with yellow, resembling the golden edges of clouds behind which the sun is shining.
The fifth will be seen to be slate or indigo in color with silver edges.
The sixth will consist of a beautiful light blue with a whitish golden fringe.
The seventh or outermost aura will be seen to be a greyish mist of a light violet tint.
The outer aura completes the auric emanation of man, and is the outer shell, as it were, constituting the so called “auric egg” surrounding every human being.
When a golden yellow light is seen about the head, it may be assumed that such an individual has great intellectuality combined with spirituality and in some cases it has been said that this contains a cloud of “gold dust” each speck revolving spirally on itself.
These colors of the various auras are not unchanging so that the student must not expect to see them exactly as described.
They are greatly modified by the mental and psychics condition of the subject and the thoughts and emotions which the latter may be experiencing at the time of observation will also affect the aura.
Thus fear gives rise to circles of bright rings, spread out in the form of a cone, of varying shades of grey, pink and purple.
A beautiful devotional thought may be expressed in the form of a star of bluish mist, tinged with yellow.
Pity may be seen as a reddish violet cloud, from which issue pointed cones of a brighter pink.
Deception will give rise to a steel-blue mist tinged with pink and taking the shape of any regular spiral.
Fear may give rise to balls of grey, pink and yellow mist while fear combined with anger will give forth a blackish grey mist, from which red electrical flashes appear to issue.
These colors extend over the whole of the auric egg and may be seen by the clairvoyant to be influencing it throughout.
This auric egg which is formed around an individual by the atmosphere or aura, emanating from him, extends both above and below his body, as well as sideways, and is from nine to ten feet in height, and five feet in diameter.
If the colors of this auric egg be examined by a clairvoyant characteristics of the individual may be clearly defined after the necessary practice and development, and the general character of the subject may in this way be discovered and interpreted.
Colors are not always associated with the human aura or with any human form.
They are often seen by psychics who are developing themselves as cloud like masses or shapes which form more or less distinctly in front of them and appear to take the outline of flowers, flashes, etc.
Colors are occasionally seen in dreams but the dream-images of most people are colourless, or only light grey, like a shadow.
They are in fact, “such stuff as dreams are made of”
In general the precise interpretation of these symbolic messages is a difficult question to settle.
A spirit who may be trying to communicate and to give a certain message to a medium may apply this same method of color symbolism to convey his meaning but this is often confusing to the psychic and difficult to interpret.
