Detecting auras requires a gentle shift in your visual focus. If you've previously been successful in glimpsing holographic images within pictures, then aura visualization should feel familiar as it utilizes a similar method.

During a workshop, I experienced difficulties in perceiving others' auras.

To overcome this, I practiced with holographic image books until I developed comfort in relaxing my eyes to visualize the holographic imagery.

Upon returning for the subsequent workshop session, I no longer struggled to perceive the auras of other participants.

How To Practice

To train yourself, have a partner pose against a soft-colored wall in dim lighting. Request that they extend a finger about 6 inches from their chin.

Rather than concentrating on their facial features, direct your focus towards their finger. After they retract their finger, maintain your gaze on the same area, which entails a level of eye relaxation.

With your eyes relaxed and looking at your partner, you might detect a slender line framing their body, approximately an inch or two out.

The following layer could be softer and may display colors. The symbolism of these colors can widely vary based on different interpretations.

My recommendation is to amplify your perceptual ability, taking note of colors frequently associated with specific types of individuals and their behaviors.

Experiment with this practice. Do their auras morph when they undergo an influx of joy, sorrow, or frustration?

Keep in mind that everyone varies—while some individuals can visualize auras instantly, others might take more time.

Should your progress take longer, avoid self-criticism. As you continue your practice, your ability to observe the subtle energy emanated by people will incrementally improve.

Further, you may discover you're capable of distinguishing another person's chakras from their primary chakra, providing insights into their likely reactions to diverse scenarios.
