An aura is described as a subtle energy field that surrounds a living being, most commonly humans. People who speak about auras claim that:
- It appears as a colored, luminous glow around the body, varying in intensity and hue.
- Colors are thought to reflect aspects of a person’s health, emotions, temperament, or spiritual state.
- Some describe auras as having multiple layers or centers, corresponding to chakras or energy centers.
Perspectives by domain:
- Folk/ spiritual context: Auras are real, perceivable energies that can reveal inner states or be read by intuitive or trained observers.
- Alternative health/energetic practices: Auras are used in diagnostics or healing, with practitioners claiming they can see, sense, or balance the aura to improve well-being.
- Physics/ mainstream science: There is no empirically verified mechanism or measurement for auras as described in spiritual or metaphysical terms.
How people work with auras:
- Visual methods: Some claim to see an aura or to photograph it (e.g., through pseudoscientific “aura photography” or Kirlian-like imaging).
- Perceptual methods: Some practitioners use intuition, clairvoyance, or sensitivity to interpret aura colors and states.
- Therapeutic use: Techniques like meditation, energy healing, or chakra balancing are sometimes framed as ways to cleanse or improve the aura.
