What Actually Is an Aura?
An aura is an energy field that surrounds the physical body. The aura is made up of different colors, and each of them means something different. Someone’s aura colors can tell you a lot about them, whether they’ve got a lot of negative energy, or whether they are creative, introverted, or excitable.
Aura color meanings change depending on where they are in the person. Our aura colors align with different chakras within our body like the root chakra and crown chakra. So an indigo aura at the solar plexus might mean something completely different from an indigo aura at the top of the head.
Tips on Seeing Your Aura Color
This spiritual energy field isn’t visible to the naked eye unless you are a well-trained psychic reader. Typically, to see your own aura, you go and get an aura reading done or you pay for professional aura portraits. But, if you’re interested in seeing your aura colors, here are all the different ways to do so!
1. Aura Photography
Aura photography is one of the leading ways to get an aura reading done. It allows you to see the human energy field and determine what people’s auras mean. There are a few ways to get an aura photo taken:
- Radiant Human – an American company that own an original aural photography camera, allowing them to photograph a person’s aura colors
- Apps – apps like Aurla allow you to see your aura colors just by using your phone. You can see whether you have an orange aura or a purple aura and figure out whether they align with your heart chakra, sacral chakra, or somewhere else!
- Kirlian photography – a system of photography set up in the 20th century that allows us to see the aura of inanimate objects and people. Photographs all sorts of aura colors, from yellow aura to blue auras. Involves photographic film, metal plates, and sending a charge through the metal.
- AuraPhoto – a company that sells aura imaging products that will allow you to see your aura. They also offer aura readings to their customers so that you can truly enhance your spiritual awareness.

2. Practice on Other People
Some people find it easier to see other people’s auras than to see their own. It may be worth trying to see someone else’s aura colors before you jump in and try to see your own. You can do this with a friend fairly easily. Simply:
- Get a friend to stand between 8 and 12 feet away from you, ideally in front of a white wall or white light in a room with plenty of natural light
- Focus on their nose with a relaxed gaze and focus on your peripheral vision as well as what you are looking at
- A shadowy outline should slowly appear, try not to focus on it and instead simply observe it. It should grow and solidify around the subject. You should then be able to make out the aura color, telling whether it is a blue aura, green aura, or maybe even a golden aura!
The more you practice this, the better you will be. Eventually, you’ll be a confident aura reader. You may find the following habits helpful to get this to work:
- Train yourself to see your peripheral vision on a daily basis
- Really tune into colors, learn to notice subtle differences
- Learn to feel other people’s energy – is someone bubbling with negative energy? Are they making you feel the same? This will help you to pick up on aura color
And remember that it may take a few tries to learn how to read auras, but you shouldn’t give up!
3. Try to See Your Own Aura Color
To see your aura color, you need to stand looking in a mirror, preferably in front of a white wall in a room full of natural light. From there, try the following:
- Focus on the area just beyond your fingertips or the side of your hand
- Allow your vision to go slightly out of focus
- Extend your arm out or up; you should see a white aura or mist around your hand – this is your inner aura color
- Slowly and carefully extend your gaze further away from the body, noting each layer and aura color as you go
If this doesn’t work, you might want to seek out the help of spiritual circles to ask them for advice. They may be able to help you to pick up on subtle energies that would otherwise go unnoticed.
