Auras and Chakras

The word Charkra is an old Sanskrit word for “Wheels of Light” they are another system in body much like the circulatory, Nervous, and Respiratory. They interact most closely with the endocrine and lymphatic system.  There are seven major chakras that actually hook directly into the spine and take perceptions from ones aura. They hold information of past pain and trauma and it can impact ones aura. These affect a persons emotional and physical health through their connection to the endocrine glands that regulate human behavior. The human energy field or aura surrounds the body in an egg shape around he body.

Auras
    Their seven layers to a persons aura if one or more auras are out of balances they will dim or brighten and be uneven. A person who is spiritually advanced will have an aura that is the pure white light of Spirit.

    Level 1 ~ Etheric Body (aka Lower etheric): Color: Red; This is associated with tough/feeling. If         this level is strong, you will have a healthy body and enjoy all the pleasures of your         five senses (Taste, tough, sight, sound)
    Level 2 ~ Emotional Body (Lower emotional aspect): Color: Orange; This is either light and bright         or swirling with dirty clouds of energy. Negative issues, such as unresolved         emotional “baggage,” can stagnate here; conversely, if you feel happy at a core level,         your first and second energy bodies will display clear, bright colors.   
    Level 3 ~Mental Body (Lower mental aspect): Color: Yellow; This is concerned with mental         concepts in the rational world.  It pulsates at a very fine level when you have an         active, lively mind.
    Level 4 ~ Higher Mental Body: Color: Green; This is where our auras merge and interact with         other people, plants, animals, surroundings and the cosmos. Here we feel the love of         relationships, since it is strongly associated with the heart chakra.
    Level 5 ~ Causal Body (Celestial Body):  Color: Turquoise; This is associated with Divine Will and         acts as an etheric template for the first level (the Etheric Body)
    Level 6 ~ Ketheric Body/True Self (Higher mental aspect):  This links us to Divine Mind, our         higher truth, our super-consciousness.
