If you are not aware of what an aura is, it is something around you, that says allot about you. Their are several layers in an aura, about 7, with different colors. This is something that has been proved in more ways than one. An aura has been photographed for one. Some true healers are able to use the aura to heal people, if you think it is something in someones head, then answer this- how are newborns healed through this technique? Newborn babies are not able to just believe it is going to work. An aura is something that contains energies, and frequencies. The higher the frequency, the more difficult it is to read. The first layer in an aura is easiest to see, it has a slower frequency. The color, as well as any indents should tell you allot about that person. If you are trained, you may begin to see an aura. It is a long process though. Some, however are able to see them naturally. Some people are able to feel them, and are very good about using their intuitions.
