The aura is the energy field that surrounds all living beings. It reflects our physical, emotional, and spiritual state—which is why we feel someone's energy even before exchanging words.
Not everyone can see the aura, but we can all feel it. Have you ever been near someone who transmitted a heavy energy to you without even speaking? That's the aura in action.
With practice, it's even possible to learn to see the aura — in a mirror, by observing your hands, or with the help of energy reading specialists.
Planes and Layers of the Aura
The aura is composed of several layers, like an onion. Each layer reveals different aspects of our being:
-
Physical plan → reflects our physical health.
-
Emotional level → changes according to mood and is more visible during emotional phases.
-
Mental plane → linked to logic, thought, and reason.
-
Astral plane → represents spirituality and the capacity to love.
-
Etheric plane → connects us psychically and intuitively to others.
-
Celestial plane → dreams, intuition and creativity.
-
Causal plane → harmonizes all planes and guides our path.
Aura Colors and Their Meaning
Each color of the aura is linked to one of the chakras and to our inner state:
-
Red → vital energy, career, values (Root chakra).
-
Orange → emotions and creativity (Sacral chakra).
-
Yellow → identity, personal power (Solar Plexus chakra).
-
Green and Pink → love, compassion, forgiveness (Heart chakra).
-
Blue → communication and expression (Throat chakra).
-
Purple/Violet → intuition, vision (Frontal chakra).
-
White → spiritual connection, collective consciousness ( the Crown chakra (Sahasrara) is located at the top of the head , as if it were an opening to the spiritual plane).
-
Black → Energy blockages and a tendency towards heavy energy.
How to Know if You Need to Cleanse Your Aura
The aura is influenced by people and environments. When it is overloaded, it can feel:
-
Extreme fatigue or the feeling of always "incubating" a cold.
-
Stress, irritability, and impatience.
-
Constant negative thoughts.
-
Lack of energy and pessimism.
At times like these, it's time to renew your energy with simple aura cleansing practices.
Rituals to Cleanse the Aura
1. Take an energizing bath.
Water has purifying power. A cold shower is invigorating; a soak in a bath with salts, plants, and essential oils helps release negative energies.
Try the Relaxing Exfoliating Scrub from MPL Beauty: the salt purifies and the lavender deeply soothes.
2. Burn White Sage or Palo Santo
Smudging is an ancient practice. Light White Sage or Palo Santo, let the smoke spread gently, and pass it around your body, from head to toe, to dissipate energy blockages.
3. Walk in the rain
Rain is nature in its purest form. Let it wash away heavy energy, like a cleansing bath.
4. Repeat a mantra.
Sit in a quiet place, visualize yourself enveloped in light, and repeat your favorite mantra until you feel the vibration expand. A simple ritual that strengthens the energy field when practiced daily.
Aura cleansing is an energetic self-care practice. It helps restore balance, lightness, and clarity, preparing you for new cycles with more positive energy.
