Aura Colors and Their Insightful Meaning

In scientific circles, it is widely accepted that the human body emits energy. Even more so, scientific studies have shown numerous times that the entire body of a human being is surrounded by an energy field. Thanks to an electric graphic recording technique named Kirlian photography, this energy can not only be detected but also captured on film. The electromagnetic field that is surrounding the human body is commonly known as “aura.” The human aura is quite an interesting field for research. As such, it can provide you a plethora of valuable information about another person’s emotions, mental states, and feelings. In the following, we’ll have a closer look at all the different aura colors, their meaning, and what they tell you about other people.

Not only do living beings radiate energy but this energy can also take on many different colors. Interestingly enough, the color, shape, and brightness of the human aura can vary from person to person.

“The more you consistently choose loving, appreciative thoughts, the more your aura radiates out that energy of love and appreciation. Then, you truly uplift – what you focus upon shines and your mere presence illuminates.”

Aura Colors and Their Insightful Meaning

What makes interpreting auras so difficult is that they come in all different kinds of forms, shapes, and colors. In fact, only rarely will you encounter a person whose aura shines in the luminous light of one color only. Instead, most human auras are the result of different colors mixing with each other.

What does the term “aura” describe?

In short, every living body emits energy. The human body is no exception from this. As such, your body emits different energies. Some of these energies can be detected by scientific measurements, for instance, heat emissions. The human aura is one such energy – or to be more precise – an electromagnetic field. In most cases, an individual’s aura is shaped like an egg around the entire human body. Even more so, spiritually advanced individuals have stated time and time again, that a person’s aura holds valuable insights.

Let’s have an in-depth look at all the aura colors and their respective associations. The following will especially show you what each aura color means and symbolizes. Even more so, it will highlight the insights about another person you can gain by identifying their aura color.

Light/whitish colors

White aura colors stand for purity, truth, and newness. You will only rarely – if ever – encounter another person whose aura shines in a perfectly white color. This is because you only find white auras in spiritually highly evolved human beings. In fact, a white aura may be a sign that a person is fully illumined and/or has fully transcended physical reality. If you see a person with a white aura, it is very likely that you have encountered a person who is very close to ascension.

Dark aura colors

While white aura colors resemble truth and purity, dark auras indicate opposing characteristics. Associated with such colors is fear, the inability to forgive, grief, and (emotional) wounds or hurts. In general, dark aura colors are closely connected to negative feelings.

Let’s have a look at each of the dark aura color tones.

• Black: The presence of black colors in a person’s aura indicates negativity, hatred, depression, and illness. In general, seeing black elements in an individual’s aura is never a good sign. The aforementioned negativity can express itself as negative feelings but also pure hatred. At the same time, it can also be the result of a person’s unforgiving, fear-driven nature. If black colors are seen in certain regions of the body, it may be a sign that these areas are affected by a disease.
• Gray: Grayish aura colors may be a sign of energy blockages. Even more so, gray aura colors can often be found in individuals that find it impossible to trust others. Depending on the brightness of the gray color tone, various other insights can be gained. For instance, very dark gray tones may indicate residues of fear in a person.
• Brown: While brown aura color tones may not indicate exceptional positivity, they are not as negative as black or gray tones. As such, brown colors in a person’s aura may indicate insecurities and a lack of confidence. Even more so, it can be a sign of confusion. In some cases, brown auras may also help you to identify individuals that act mainly selfish and have a habit of deceiving others.

Rainbow aura colors

Let’s continue with a mixture of various colors that indicate much brighter characteristics than the aforementioned dark aura colors.

Individuals whose aura consists of a wide variety of colors – just like a rainbow – are energetically gifted. For instance, you will find that many healers have rainbow-colored auras.

In general, a golden aura is associated with wisdom, deep thinking, and also enlightenment. At the same time, golden color tones indicate that a being is divinely guided and protected. As such, it may be an individual that is pursuing a higher good with great determination.
• Silver: Astonishingly, silver – not gold – indicates abundance. It is radiated by individuals who are physically, mentally, and spiritually wealthy and do not hesitate to generously share their abundance with others. Even more so, silver color tones in an individual’s aura may indicate that they are awakening to a higher consciousness.
