The way to become human is to learn to recognize the lineaments of God
in all the wonderful modulations of the face of man.
- Joseph Campbell; 'The hero with a thousand faces'

            The Aura is the energy the Soul emanates. Some people refer to this as electromagnetic energies. This is suspended around the human body in an oval shaped field referred to as the "auric body." The size of the auric body differs from person to person due to the level of spiritual growth that person is experiencing or the type of awareness they have. It's an energy field that exists while we are alive.

The importance of our Aura cannot be ignored as it's in constant exchange with all forms of energy whether man-made or natural. At the same time it reveals the health and emotional state of a person. People with the ability of clairvoyance can read a person like a book as the Aura contains the past, present and future thoughts, as well as the feelings and actions that a person has. Aurically, we all give and take what we need without question or conscious recognition, from whatever energy source is in close contact.

The human energy field is composed of the seven auric bodies which are translucent and colorful, appearing much like the colors in a rainbow, only more subtle in intensity. Below is a table of all auric bodies with a brief description including an estimate size of each layer, starting from the closest to the physical self and ending with the outermost layer.

As previously stated, the Auric Body is the human energy field, and is comprised of many colors. To find out more about this, please check the Auric Colors page . This energy field is in turn comprised of whirlpools of energy which process and distribute incoming energy as well as release outgoing energy. These whirlpools are referred to as Chakras.
