Weāve covered many different types of magick over the past year of challenges- but out of all of them, Aura Reading has likely been the hardest one for me yet
Like several others have mentioned- aura reading is not a big part of my practice. Iāve squinted and meditated and tried both focusing hard and not thinking about it at all, but alas- to date, I have not been able to see any aura colors when I look at people .
While part of me thinks that a shame (from reading othersā experiences, it sounds like a really cool ability to have! ), another part of me thinks that just how it is. Every magick user has different talents and varying abilities- and thatās absolutely fine!
Although I wonāt continue trying to see aura colors, this challenge helped me to become more aware of how I sense auras- aka the energy, moods, and overall character of people around me. I believe this sense is how auras present themselves to me.
Intuition is a big part of magick- we use intuition when reading tarot or other forms of divination, we use it to time spells and to know what spells to cast, to sense the energy around us
Iāve done plenty of work building and enhancing intuition when it comes to divination, but my practice tends to be very personal and I very rarely do intuition work when it comes to sensing other people. This challenge opened my eyes that perhaps I cannot see auras (or even sense them as strongly as others) simply because I havenāt devoted much time to developing that magickal sense.
Iāve realized that I have a lot to gain by working on enhancing my intuition about reading others, and in turn, building my ability to sense (and perhaps even see someday!) auras- something to focus on going forward!
If you would like to participate and havenāt done so already, please post about your challenge experience(s) by the deadline: Tomorrow: August 17th, 7:00 AM CET (Central European Time Zone)
Same here! I could read others energy like a book. Itās a feeling Iāve always had. Then as I look into their eyes, thatās a given! Growing up, I thought that everyone had this āfeelingā.
You did a wonderful job!!! Iād love to meet you Moonshine and Alphie!!! And thanks for the Pinterest pic bc Iām saving that!!! Swiper, no swiping!!
I could never do those either and I hated it because I was the only one in my family (siblings) who couldnāt do that stupid stuff!! Lol
But now Iām the one that can and they canāt! Na na na boo boo!!
Yes! The different names of auras are correct!! I was going to add them and the corresponding colors to my entry but I ended up forgetting. Theyāre correct anyway!!!
I think Iāll catch this challenge during a catch up week. I didnāt have time to do anything yesterday, what with all that reading I was doing. LOL! I donāt want to just slap something together, especially since I need to research more for auras.
For this weekās challenge, Iāve been working on trying to actually see auras. As I mentioned previously, I can feel various energies and can intuitively read them, but I couldnāt actually see auras or anything. Throughout the week, Iāve been able to see the auras around trees! I havenāt yet been able to see them for other plants, but Iāve been working on that too because Iāve been swept up by my fascination with plants/herbalism recently.
I have briefly been able to see them around my own hand and arm, but I havenāt yet been able to see them around other people. I also still canāt see any colors in the auras, but I can see the faint ālightā (for lack of better words) around trees and my own hand/arm! Rome wasnāt conquered in a day, eh?
@Jewitch thatās great! Iām so happy for you! I have some time today, so I want to go into my backyard & try in my garden & with the trees that we have here. I also saw them briefly when I did it with my dogs. They are so willing to help me with these things when itās just us & they are literally laying around with me.
It was in mine years ago. My little isnāt so little anymore most of the Spanish I can speak came from Dora the explorer. I can even say thank you and hello in Chinese from watching ni-hao kailan with her while I was getting ready for work
My youngest didnāt really watch Dora or Diego, but my oldest was all about Nickelodeon. Blueās Clues, Dora the Explorer, & he did like Bear in the Big Blue House too. My 2 younger children liked to watch Disney more than Nickelodeon. My middle was a good mix of both though. Lol
Iāve not done much for this challenge, but I have had another go at reading my own aura.
Iāve tried both a phone app, and method suggested here for reading the aura by softly staring at my hand. I gather that looking at your hand in your peripheral vision, with a soft focus similar to looking at a magic eye picture is what youāre aiming for.
I think Iām seeing something blue, turquoise and possibly a hint of indigo but I need to work on jt.
For interest, hereās a few shots taken using the app.
