How can I discover my aura and perceive others?

I would love to perceive my own aura as well as others can anyone give me insight on how to develop this ability? I feel it could be a very good tool in reading people and discovering myself.

Darken the room, seeing auras is easier in the dark, at least for me.
Focus your thoughts on wanting to see your aura. Begin a light meditation.
Visualise your energy around yourself and focus into your aura around your hand.
Concentrate onto that spot, if you know your true color think of that color.
See past the hand looking around the edges of your hand. you should start seeing a distortion or a feint ghostly after image. Practice makes you better. Login your 10,000 hours and you should be seeing auras easily.

So remember the steps, mental readiness, visualization, concentration, and finally obtaining sight.

I sincerely thank you for your insight Shadowside.

I'm working on the same thing at the moment. :)

You could also try these little concentration exercises: http://www.thiaoouba.com/aura_eye_exercise.htm

Apparently, us older folks (and I mean 13 and older) have retinas that are too damaged to perceive auras (that is, using plain old central vision). So this site basically helps you to train your peripheral vision, instead, since the retina in your peripheral is far less damaged.

Hope this helps a bit.

These are great for seeing your Aura.


You will need a Picture Frame, Some Newspaper, A small tin of Black gloss Paint ( The size used on Plastic construction Kit’s is quiet adequate) and a Paint Brush .
You can choose a frame of your preference and size from any local store , I prefer a wooden frame as it feels more organic. If you prefer a concave round Mirror, You can pick up an old Kitchen Clock from the second hand store and remove the glass or plastic face for this purpose.
Disassemble the Picture Frame as you would were you going to put a Photograph in it.Take the Glass from the Picture Frame and lay it on the Newspaper. Paint the Glass Black on one side only. Allow to dry naturally and apply another coat if necessary. The Total coverage in the Black Gloss Paint augments the depth of the Finished Mirror.
Once dried re assemble the Picture Frame with the unpainted side facing outwards. And you will have your very own scrying/Dark Mirror at a fraction of the cost
To use your scrying Mirror, simply relax and gaze into it, Happy Scrying.

There is a book called "Aura Awareness" that gives basic info on the aura and games to play to become aware of yours and other's auras. Also the Berkeley Psychic Institute teaches people to read the aura.

Start by holding your thumb and index finger as if you were about to pinch someone about 1 to 2 millimetres apart. Stare at the gap between your fingers against a soft,neutral background.After a few minutes of adjusting your hand as well as eyes you will start to see the energy between your fingers and then you move to bigger and bigger areas of your hand and body.You should be able to accomplish this within the first twenty minutes.
Best wishes Gerry

There are many ways, and people have shared some good ways with you, to learn to see the aura. But developed auric sight, in my experience, takes a very long time to master (depending on the individual's natural beginning abilities). Most individuals can learn to see aspects of the aura. Most of these people can see the aura only when the environmental conditions permit - when a person is standing against a plan white wall with just the right amount and shade of light, etc. Not very practical, you may be thinking? No, it's not really... not when you're trying to conduct aura readings and a large plain white wall dimly lit isn't available. If you can work on your inner sight - developing your ability to see auras internally rather than externally (with your energetic sensors instead of your physical eyes) - you can learn to tap into another person's aura (if you have their permission!) regardless of the environmental conditions available to you at any given moment. Of course after much development you should be able to see auras regardless of the current environmental circumstance, and developing your inner sight will eventually translate to outer sight where you will begin experiencing a blending of the two visions.
This is my experience, and it takes much practice and much discipline. Seeing aspects of the aura isn't so hard. Seeing detailed information stored in the aura - colors, imprints, etc. - is a different story, and I have yet to master it.
Best of luck in your development.

The trick is to focus past or behind the person or yourself (sit in front of a mirror). Look at a place past your head or shoulders. Keep staring at that spot and you'll soon see a shimmering field around you. It could be white, yellow or blue that kinda disappears and reappears (that's one of your energy bodies). The trick is to focus behind or past to see your aura.
