Auras, How can you tell the difference Options

Hey,

Had a quick question, and I didn't quite know where to put it, but here it goes. If you stare at an object for a long time then shift whatever you were looking at you will get what many consider an aura colour no matter what the background. If you stare at a person, no matter what the background (though it should, preferably be a lighter colour) you will get the same results. My question is how we should differentiate between auras that are produced by objects and auras that are produced by persons. The colours do indeed change in objects as much as they do for persons. For many, auras are considered definitive proof of the astral body encasing the soul. How do we defend this notion in light of the question at hand?

Good day to you and yours,

Mr. Curi

from my personal point of view, the aura of a living thing keeps changing in color as well as intensity.. at the finest level you can say it changes everytime...

As for an object the aura you find is pretty much like the after image that holds onto your retina or image centers in the brain... its not exactly its aura as such.. but as these items do have a vibration you might find an outline but still this will be cause of light.. Its not aura as such..

My point of view..

Additionally you can feel the emotion of a person from his aura...

from a bottle for instance you wont be able to feel anything unless someone has had contact with it.. then may be you could detect some residual stuff..

Hopes i am not leafding you on the wrong track but its what i believe

IMO, Inanimate objects have energy that is neither intelligent or feeling. They still have energy and it can percieved as ever changing and even containing color like a person's aura. You might even be confused if an object is living or not as living energy does seem to collect as residue on inanimate objects. The thing about this kind of energy is that its not just matterial objects that seem to radiat energy. Its really everywhere and in all stages of matter. Living energy is different from the rest because it is emotional and intelligent. Even plants share these qualities.

When we create egregors or give inanimate objects energy we in away give life to the object. Its not actually living on its own but the object reinforces intention and the energy you give it and continue to give it keeps the intention of the object alive.

An experiment you could try is to create a doll or statue and give it to a friend. Ask them to spend once a day holding this object while thinking about one specific emotion and what in their life is causing this. It can be any emotion really but they can't tell you what it is until at the very end of the experiment. After say two weeks of this get the object back and you yourself spend time with it and try to feel the energy in the object. I do this by clearing my mind and vissualize the energy of the object touching my aura and I try to pick up sensations. The importance of clearing your own mind is so that you don't corrupt the energy in the object and feel something from yourself. Try to think of both the emotion presant in the object and what has caused it. Check your accuracy by telling your friend what you felt and have them tell you if it was accurate or not.

If you can't find a willing partner for this you can try it with random objects you know are important to people. Like a wedding ring or valuble necklace. Just don't steal anyting!

This is actually basic psychometry or the art of reading the energy imprinted on objects by other people. Practicing this regularly might teach you to differentiate living energy from matterial energy.

Since i've lurked around and couldn't find the exact answers ima post my question here:

I have many questions regarding one's aura. I recently found out that everyone has their own "colour", what would be the difference in the colours? how can one knwo what their colour is? Also... Is't possible to build your aura to make it stronger and bigger? how would this help? what would be a purpose of't? How can one build his/her aura?

I could not find many subjects on the matter, and im sure its very important to create a strong aura for many occasions and even for defense against psychic attacks and such.

Your aura is the energy nimbus around your material body. It is a product of your energetic reactions with your environment and the way that you structure your energy. The aura or body of light is strengthened through many means. Practices which increase the amount of energy you can channel and hold, such as mediation and invocatory practices or circulatory exercises result in greater energy levels. Practices such as shielding and shrouding affect the quality of the exterior of your shield, generally resulting in increased efficiency in protective practices. In terms of other practices, it is easier to list those practices which don't affect some quality of your aura.

If you want increase the intensity of your aura, I suggest the Lesser Banishing Pentagram Ritual because it will increase the amount of energy available to you and increase your potential to shield from external influences and beings. If you succeed in making your aura more noticeable, expect to be noticed by energies that will probably have greater facility at manipulating the astral. Continue to banish and you will become be very resistant to such pests.

Thank you Motsie. I've just begun with dream recall journals, do you know any ways where i can find a mentor or someway to begin learning all of these things? its really confusing to me where to begin, because i want to become psychically stronger but also learn Necromancy and many other things such as some voodoo as well. I just don't god damn know where to begin and its killing me, maybe there is a good group i can join? Or yet even step by step classes i can take online or by a person?

No problem DeathStalker, glad to help.

Don't worry about your pace. Magical information is often dense and you can only absorb it so fast. Continue your dream journals and also note down things that seem out of the ordinary in your waking life. I don't know if you should have a separate journal. Maybe one of the others can tell you that. As you continue to weave your thoughts towards magical growth, different aspects of your life will begin to resonate to the energy. These quirks of reality will be important hints as to your path.

If you live in a city with some metaphysical/magical bookstores you may be able to find a group there to work with to teach you some basic techniques, but frankly some of your other interests are a little dark for some new age, angel sighting venues. If you do go to one of these places, test the water before you bare your soul. There's an important lesson that it's never to early to learn in craftwork, don't expose yourself to others needlessly. Treat your magical interests like you would drug habits, have some sense of the audience you are exposing your life to. Here on a forum, it's not as important to be discreet because it's relatively anonymous, but you would be surprised how much you can learn about a name on a forum by googling it. This is an old fashioned sentiment, but there are several good reasons to be guarded around both craftspersons and normals.

Don't despair though! It's easy to learn some basic techniques alone. I recommend that you pick up a copy of Techniques of High Magick by Francis King and Stephen Skinner. It is a good basic text for beginning magicians. It is my belief that the structure is not overly slanted to any given religious viewpoint, but some might disagree. At any rate, it has the basic banishing and invoking rituals for planetary and elemental energies as well as some rituals and guidelines for weapon and talisman construction and consecration, as well as exercises in visualization and other useful things. Take a look at that and pm me back and we can discuss it further if you want. There are lots of other good books and if you prefer another, I'll try to get a copy and work with you on that.

Oh and don't take me as an expert! For all you know I sitting here with a tin foil hat on surrounded by thirty cats. You are on a path of self-determination and you will have to get used to deciding what is right for you.

Talk to you later.
