The Power of Auras: Tap Into Your Energy Field For Clarity, Peace of Mind, and Well-Being

Have you ever wondered, What is keeping my body alive? What energy gives life to my body with my first breath, and what energy will leave my body when I die?
called prana, is that fundamental energy. In this book you will discover this pranic energy, or life-force, and you will learn how to strengthen that power in your life.
Your physical body is not the only body you inhabit.
Your subtle body, which pervades and surrounds your physical body, is called your energy field, or aura.
Thus everything in the universe is filled and surrounded by auric fields that you can experience, measure, evaluate, cleanse, heal, restore, and strengthen.
you will master the art of healing the energy field of your environment, home, workplace, city, nation—even your planet.
pra (“first,” “primary,” “before,” or “forth”) and an (“breathe,” “move,” “live”).
Prana is the power within all things and all beings, from elementary quantum particles to complex life forms. As the finest vital force in everything, prana manifests on the physical plane as motion and on the mental plane as thought.
Prana is in the air, yet it is not oxygen or any other physical constituent of air. All living things absorb prana with every breath. Yet, if prana were absent from air, no organism could survive by breathing air. Prana is in every particle of creation, but is not a particle.
prana is called chi or qi in China, and ki in Japan. The Chinese practice of Qigong uses qi for healing.
Your aura is made of prana. Intensifying pranic energy increases vitality, health, power, influence, charisma, willpower, and supernormal powers.
Pranic energy is continually drained by every thought, word, and deed, and is consistently replenished by every breath.
Other sources of prana are sunlight, water, air, and food.
Thought is the most refined, potent form of prana. Therefore, when thoughts become more refined and spiritually attuned, pranic energy increases.
When your mind is relaxed and expanded during deep meditation, pranic energy is boosted exponentially.
certain forms of speech, such as prayer and affirmation, increase pranic energy. Positive, powerful statements of truth expand your aura. But negative, damaging, harmful speech diminishes and shrinks your aura.
A vibrant, large, expanded, bright, smooth, elegant, energetic aura surrounds a healthy individual with abundant pranic energy.
When you inhale, prana enters your body and is stored in your subtle energy centers. The more pranic energy you absorb, the more healing and vitality rushes
Yogic breathing methods (pranayama) collect and conserve pranic energy in your solar plexus, your pranic storage battery.
Yogic breathing saturates your physical body with pranic energy, preventing disease
Moderate exercise, such as walking, bicycling, swimming, and yoga exercises (asanas), along with proper breathing and pranayama, oxygenates blood and revitalizes vital energy—without the strain or oxygen debt of heavy exercise.
Pranic energy can be transferred. Anyone coming into proximity with a prana-filled individual receives this energy automatically.
What is commonly called the “power of persuasion” is simply the capacity to wield pranic energy.
Never imagine that giving to others will drain you, for the more you impart pranic energy, the more prana flows through you from the cosmic, infinite source.
Pranic energy can pass through space like a wireless mobile connection.
You can increase your own pranic energy to such a degree that you overcome all obstacles, fulfill all desires, and heal all dis-ease.
According to ancient scriptures of India, there are 72,000 nadis in your pranic body.
As kundalini wakes up and rises up the spine, it opens the chakras, bringing health, well-being, energy, and, ultimately, spiritual enlightenment.
Your 10 major nadis are connected to 10 “gates”—orifices of the body through which the vital life-force or prana may exit the body at death.
I cover the 14 main chakras mentioned in the scriptures: seven major chakras that you may already be familiar with, and seven others that you might not be aware of. Many of these are in your skull or above your head.
Chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning “wheel.” Why is it a wheel? Because it has a hub and spokes. The hub is where many conduits of pranic energy intersect, and the spokes are radiations of pranic energy. So a chakra is a concentrated center of pranic energy in the layer of your subtle body known as your pranic body.
Your subtle body needs different nourishment than your physical body. When fed spiritual food, such as prayer, meditation, and positive thinking, it becomes robust and healthy. When fed negative thoughts and toxic emotions, it shrinks and collapses.
Because your energy body is larger than your physical body, it extends past your gross body’s boundaries, and its outer edge is visible as an aura. This light-body may appear multilayered, egg-shaped, spiral, or oval, or it may follow the body’s contours.
This energy body has many names: aura, auric field, subtle body, astral body, etheric body, etheric double, doppelganger, fluidic body, Beta body, counterpart body, pre-physical body, bioplasmic body, psychic atmosphere, or magnetic atmosphere.
Just like everything else in creation, you are a bundle of pulsating, shimmering bodies of light and sound. Your stream of consciousness reaches from the divine level through all subtle levels to your gross physical body. You have a separate identity on each level, and you live on all levels simultaneously. Myriad inner identities comprise your one identity, and many subtle vibrational bodies make up your inner form.
As a multidimensional being, each of your inner bodies dwells in a separate dimension. This claim may sound unbelievable, but today’s theoretical physics postulates that we live in many dimensions simultaneously. The ancient scriptures of India speak of seven cosmic regions corresponding to your seven sheaths and seven major chakras. Of these seven realms, the three highest are called worlds of Brahma.
Through the sense of touch, you undoubtedly get gut feelings about people and places. Your first impression of a person is sensing a subtle auric field, which you can read, often with great accuracy.
Few people have the rare skill of outer clairvoyance, whereby they clearly see colors in auras with their eyes open. However, many people see colors and other details of auras through inner clairvoyant vision, with eyes closed.
So auras are more easily viewed with peripheral vision, out of the corner of the eye, rather than focusing hard and looking directly at them.
Focus attention only on that one exact point. Meanwhile, your peripheral vision will automatically see
As you concentrate on the dot in the center, a “halo” of light of the opposite color will surround the circles.
In order to see auras, it is essential to see with soft focus. That means gazing at an object or person without focusing intently at any one point.
Lie on your back outdoors on a warm, sunny day. Relax and gaze at trees or bushes in the distance. Let your eyes move up and down the trees and then notice the line where the treetops meet the sky. Gaze at the treetops with soft focus. A faint white halo will appear around the trees. Now look at buildings in the distance. You may perceive a narrow band of light, but it will not be as vibrant or as large as the aura of the trees.
View your subject in dim lighting against a neutral background. The aura of a public speaker on a stage against a white screen or wall is easily visible. However, if the person is standing before a bright-colored, multicolored, or patterned background, your perception of the aura color might be distorted.
The Cairo Museum displays ceramic pendulums from 1,000-year-old tombs.
pharaohs holding rods,
In India pendulums have been used for hundreds of years. However, the first illustrations of pendulums in the West were engraved on the side of wooden axe hafts used by miners’ guilds in Saxony between 1664 and 1749.
L’Abbé Bouly (1865–1958), a French priest, coined the term radiesthesia, derived from the Latin radius (“radiance”) and the Greek aesthesis (“sensitivity”), to describe pendulum use for detecting and measuring all radiations from minerals, plants, animals, or humans, whether magnetic, electromagnetic, or other unknown energies.
According to my conviction this is, however, unjustified. The dowsing rod is a simple instrument which shows the reaction of the human nervous system to certain factors which are unknown to us at this time.”
Intuitive Kinesiology is a branch of knowledge that studies the movements of various tools that develop and enhance intuition. Some of these tools are muscle-testing or muscle-checking, dowsing, divining, and radiesthesia.
Intuitive Kinesology is defined as a quest for hidden information with or without an instrument (such as L-rod or pendulum),
This “sixth sense” is natural to everyone, and it can be developed with a little practice.
Intuitive Kinesiology tools and techniques are communication, interface, or read-out devices controlled by your own higher mind or higher self.
Warm-Up Exercises 1. First, drink a full glass of fresh water.
Take some deep breaths, relax, and become quiet. Drift into a prayerful mood.
Speak aloud the Self-Authority Affirmation on page 159 of this book for spiritual self-defense and divine protection.
Before asking your inquiry, first ask your higher self for permission. If another person is involved, get permission from that individual before proceeding.
Do not attempt any exercises or experiments in this chapter until you drink adequate water and complete the suggested Warmup Exercises.
Every Intuitive Kinesiology tool has a Ready position, a Yes position, a No position, a Found position, a Line of Bearing position, a Clearing position, and an Increasing position.
An L-rod is a versatile tool by which you can locate and measure unseen energies and objects. It is also called an angle rod, swing rod, pointing rod, or dowsing rod. I find it the best instrument for measuring auric fields.
One L-rod used alone can act as a pointer to find a lost object, hidden object, or direction. This is called Line of Bearing.
When two L-rods are used together, they are pointed forward for the Ready position. They usually cross for Yes position. For No position, they often swing outward, 180 degrees from each other. For Found position, the two L-rods may either cross or swing outward to indicate the target has been located.
Now say out loud to your internal truth system, your higher self, or an aspect of the divine within (such as God, Holy Spirit,
Positive affirmations and truth statements strengthen your muscles. Negative affirmations and false statements weaken your muscles.
Positive affirmations and truth statements strengthen, energize, and expand your energy field dramatically. Negative affirmations and false statements weaken, deplete, and shrink your energy field dramatically. The effects of positive and negative affirmations and statements demonstrate results immediately.
The Yes position is usually a strong circle with your non-dominant hand that cannot be opened by your dominant hand’s duck-beak. The No position is a weak circle, which can easily be opened by your duck-beak.
How to Use a Pendulum A pendulum is any kind of string, chain, or other armature attached to a weight. This can be a teabag on a string, a button or washer on a string, a curtain pullcord, or a key, locket, or pocket watch on a chain. It can also be a pendulum created and designed for dowsing.
Like any other dowsing tool, a pendulum has a Ready, Yes, No, and Found position. Ask your higher self to show you these positions. Or program your pendulum to use the positions in Figure 6i. The Ready position is swinging at a 45-degree angle, as shown in the chart. The Yes position is swinging straight ahead forward and backward at a 90-degree angle, and the No position is swinging left and right, at a 180-degree angle.
Do the Warm-Up Exercises on page 236. Hold the string or chain of your pendulum between your thumb and index finger at any part of chain that is comfortable, leaving about 3 to 5 inches of it hanging. The chain’s length will determine how fast it swings. As you shorten the armature or chain, the pendulum moves faster.
Hold the pendulum above the chart in Figure 6i. Then manually move the pendulum. Make it swing back and forth at a 45-degree angle, in Ready position. Continue to make it move.
The only part of the pendulum’s swing that matters is the forward half of the swing. Ignore the backward swing (the dotted line on the chart).
Once your pendulum is swinging in Ready position, tell your higher self, “Please show me the Yes position for the pendulum.” Take a few deep breaths and do the “do-nothing program.” Your pendulum will continue swinging while gradually moving from Ready position toward the left, until it is moving straight forward and backward in Yes position on the chart.
You might find your pendulum spins in circles, perhaps clockwise for a Yes response and counterclockwise for a No response. This is acceptable. However, it may limit you when using elaborate charts for detailed queries.
In addition to this instruction, it is strongly recommended that you read and use Letter to Robin—A Mini-Course in Pendulum
Dowsing, by Walt Woods. You can download this free e-book from www.lettertorobin.org.
Pierrakos reported three layers of the field: 1. Inner layer: one-fifth to one-eight inch thick; dark blue-black, violet, or ultraviolet; empty, transparent, and crystalline.
Middle layer: 3 to 4 inches thick; blue-gray in color; brilliant, shimmering, liquid, and rarified, displaying: a. A wavelike form filling the entire layer. b. An overall Brownian motion appearance (that is, like masses of particles suspended in liquid, moving randomly). c. White or yellow rays projecting several feet from the body with a fringed effect around the head. 3. Outer layer: 6 to 8 inches thick; nearly transparent sky-blue; expanding up to 100 feet, with spiral or vortical movement and diffused, indistinct boundaries.
Pierrakos found the energy field is affected by activity, rest, metabolism, emotions, and breathing rate and quality.
Good aura readers can distinguish two unique layers of your energy field. The first is an underlying, semi-permanent color determined by character, awareness, and habits. The second layer is shaped by temporary moods and thought-forms (congealed energy built of habits and beliefs), in continual flux.
Although your aura surrounds your entire body, the densest portion is around your head and shoulders. Intense colors usually indicate greater willpower, focused energy, spirit, and vivacity. Many factors contribute to aura appearance, including food, health, and environment. But the most important factor is mind.
Drug addicts, alcoholics, and mentally ill individuals exhibit gray clouds of astral mucous. Astral entities often display black or gray spheres. In contrast, spiritual guides, angels, divine teachers, and departed loved ones emit brilliant white balls of energy, frequently appearing near the head. Tiny orbs are often deceased pets. New babies emerge as small balls of light to the right of the mother-to-be.
During waking hours, colorful emotional-body thought-forms predominate the aura. But during sleep, when mind and body are resting, your astral-vital body is foremost. Then, your aura becomes a semitransparent pearly or milky field, tinged with opalescent hues and tints, blending, shifting, hiding, and reappearing. This radiant pearly substance is your etheric double, or vital body, an exact replica of your human body. This vital body can shrink or expand, however.
Energy vampires can absorb pranic power through hugging, patting, or grabbing. Some speak softly and timidly, forcing you to extend your energy field into theirs. Others get in your face, speak too loudly, or stand too close, right inside your aura. Some open their eyes wide to draw in energy. Others phone or arrive at odd hours, rattling on endlessly, whining about their woes. Or they shoot energy daggers from their eyes.
People are not the only energy vampires. Lower beings from the astral world that see and feel your light, love, and power may attempt to install psychic hooks in your auric field. Energy suckers are always on the lookout for “spigots” to hook into. Once the pump opens, spiritual energy drains from your auric field. That is why it is essential to maintain spiritual protection.
If you are plagued by psychic vampirism, remember that your deep soul has asked for this experience so you may learn and understand this experience and help others lift themselves out of such deplorable situations. The following prayers can heal psychic vampirism and hooks.
Your blood relatives, living and dead, can cause your aura to shrink or be bound by ancestral ties, ropes, karmic bonds, and other binding attachments. Abusive words and deeds from family members have lasting devastating effects on your energy field. Well-meaning relatives might smother you with what they define as “love,” which is, in reality, codependency, psychic vampirism, or psychic attack. They may believe that warning you of this perilous world and your likelihood of failure will prevent you from harm. They might offer sage advice about how ridiculous you are for trying to achieve your impossible dreams and goals. Or they might remind you how people are laughing at you for following your heart and doing something that does not fit the “norm.” If you feel your relatives tugging on or binding up your energy field, holding you back from achieving your dreams, then use these prayers.
Beings called reptilians are working with dark energies from the astral world. These beings incarnate on earth with malevolent intentions to cause confusion, drain energy, and confound light beings and light workers who are lifting the planet. This so-called reptilian energy is a dark, astral energy—not E.T. energy. It is an extra-dimensional energy of lower aspects of the astral world, where demonic beings reside. Some reptilians have been humans in the past. Others have never been human. These reptilian energies have enticing and enchanting powers. Certain gurus with reptilian energy build a special mystique and glamour around themselves. Others have a psychic draining or psychic vampire energy. Use the following prayer if you suspect you are dealing with a reptilian:
Some psychics or healers tend to categorically ignore the health of their own auric field.
Others simply have no clue about closing off their aura or opening to the flow of
We all need to practice “aural hygiene.” Just as we have a daily routine for cleansing our body, it is essential to add a few practices each day to keep our aura free from impurities and anomalies.
When our shell is cracked or broken, we flounder about unprotected, unsafe, and insecure in unwholesome environments.
Psychic sponges absorb vibrational energies from their surroundings, just as a sponge absorbs water. Their auras—open, oversensitive, and vulnerable—are subject to all energies, even harmful ones. Here is my prescription for all psychic sponges: Study this chapter and use the affirmations daily.
build an impermeable aura
Psychic sponges are often well-meaning, sensitive people who simply do not know how to keep their auras closed.
Practicing daily “aural hygiene” is essential to our well-being. By simply speaking affirmations of inner divine protection just a few times daily, I guarantee your aura will become stronger and more powerful; eventually it can even become invincible.
I use affirmations of spiritual protection every day and have done so since 1986. I recommend saying such affirmations audibly whenever you leave your home, before you go to sleep, before you meditate, before going to a meeting, when you enter a crowd, before entering a low vibrational atmosphere, before and after meeting
In these affirmations you will close your aura to the lower vibrational levels of mind and the astral world, and you will open your aura to God and the spiritual plane.
I AM in control. I AM one with God. I AM the only authority in my life. I AM divinely protected by the light of my being. I close off my aura and body of light To the lower astral levels of mind And I open to the spiritual world, Now and forevermore. Thank you God, and SO IT IS.
One powerful way to create a protective aura of divine light is to visualize one. Many people imagine a sphere, bubble, or column of light permeating, surrounding, and protecting them.
Psychic vampires can suck energy from your auric field.
Improper food, shallow breathing, negative thinking, or stress can diminish your energy field.
Psychic Clamps
you will realize how essential it is to cut psychic ties daily with all people in your life.
If you have a codependent or addictive relationship with anything or anyone, cutting psychic ties several times a day is crucial. Psychic ties are created every time you have sex, so it is essential to cut psychic ties after every sexual encounter. The umbilical cord attached to your navel from your mother still exists as a psychic tie in adulthood. It is important to cut that tie, especially when your mother dies.
I call upon the Holy Spirit To cut any and all psychic ties between myself and (name a person, place, thing, or addiction here). These psychic ties are now lovingly Cut, lifted, loved, healed, released, and let go Into the light of God’s love and truth. Thank you God, and SO IT IS.
Heavy Psychic Cords
If someone attempts to dominate, control, or coerce you, they might deposit psychic ties, bonds, hooks, clamps, plates, and other anomalies into your auric field. These deposits are products of aggression. They are often installed into your energy field consciously and purposefully through energy portals—tubes for traveling into and out of your aura via energy vortices—energy flows going into or out of a portal.
Any and all astral entities, thought-forms, implants, And negative energies that have been deposited Into my energy field by (insert name of person here) Through totems or talismans, minerals or gems, Through words, thoughts, intentions, psychic vampirism, Circles, spells, enchantments, curses, black magic, And all other manipulative methods of psychic coercion, Whether known or unknown, conscious or subconscious, I know that these entities and negative energies Are now lovingly healed and forgiven. You are now lovingly lifted in love. You are unified with the truth of being. You are united with God’s divine love, Divine light, and divine truth. Beloved ones, go now in love, go now in truth. You are bless-ed, forgiven, and released Into the love, light, and wholeness of The universal God Consciousness. Go in peace now. Go in light. Go in love. Go in peace.
before sleep to strengthen your energy field and prevent psychic attack or vampirism during sleep. This simple prayer can avert nightmares, fitful sleep, or broken sleep. You will sleep more soundly and peacefully.
I open my heart to God’s love. I AM a beloved child of God. I AM filled with the light of God. I AM a beauteous being of great power, Great energy, great good and great glory. I now call upon God To keep me protected, safe, and secure In God Consciousness during sleep. I now call upon God to build a beautiful golden sphere Of divine love and light around me as I sleep, To keep me safe, secure, and one with God. Thank you God, and SO IT IS.
Think of your auric field as a pond. When you drop a rock into the center of the pond, then the waves of water ripple outward in concentric circles until the ripples hit the outer edge. Then these ripples move back to the center of the pond. Similarly, your thought-forms broadcast from your auric field out to the universe. Then they return to you, just as they were transmitted.
If your energy field is filled with positive, smooth, stable, joyful, peaceful, tranquil, content, serene, loving thoughts and feelings, then you will magnetize positive experiences. However, if your auric field is poisoned with negative, hateful, angry, vengeful, depressing, chaotic, anxious, irritating, jagged, toxic thoughts and emotions, then you will attract difficult, negative situations.
The mind of the woman in Figure 11c is acting as her enemy. However, she can transform it into her best friend. Using the Thought-Form Healing Prayer can transform your mind from anguish into heavenly paradise in a matter of moments. This prayer can heal anything—any physical, mental, emotional, or other problem in your life. This healing prayer is a way to take control of your thoughts by using a simple formula.
Rakshasas, mentioned in the ancient scriptures of India, are demonic thought-forms built of such intense energies that they take on a life of their own. Examples of rakshasas are entities placed in mechanical objects by people who curse their cars, washing machines, computers, and so forth. Devils, Satan, Lucifer, and other imaginary demonic entities are given life by intensely concentrated collective beliefs and thought-forms. Here is a prayer to heal rakshasas:
Mantras, prayers, or seed sounds that produce harmonious, healing vibrations are chanted in many religious traditions.
Because your subtle energy field is made of vibration and light, it is most profoundly transformed through light or sound.
To create a restful, peaceful atmospheric energy, use cool colors.
Traditionally in India, sounds called mantras are used to strengthen the energy field. A mantra is a vibrational sound that invokes a deity and produces particular known results.
When chanting mantras, people often use a rosary called a mala to count the number of repetitions, as it is generally recommended to chant mantras 108 times. Therefore you will find sandalwood, or rudraksha (a seed holy to Lord Shiva), malas with 108 beads.
In my books Exploring Meditation and The Power of Chakras, you will find many breathing exercises that are invaluable for augmenting prana and strengthening your aura. I urge you to refer to these books and learn these powerful secret yogic methods.
The yogis of India believe your lifespan is counted by the number of breaths, not the number of years. At birth you come into this world with a contract of a predetermined number of breaths. When these run out, your life is over. This is why conservation of breath is essential in yoga philosophy.
By breathing consciously and deeply, you can boost vitality, strengthen resistance to disease, even extend your lifespan.
The yogis of India believe that proper breathing can annihilate all disease from this planet. In addition, the power of prana in breath can increase mental capacity, happiness, self-confidence, self-discipline, inner strength, and clarity, and can awaken latent mental powers. By controlling breathing through ancient secrets of pranayama, you can eliminate illness, let go of fear and worry, and unfold spiritual evolution.
When you use a pendulum, the sky is the limit.
“Please indicate my current percentage of optimum aura health and balance.” Take a deep breath and let go. Your pendulum will then move through the chart until it consistently swings in one of the pie-sections, indicating your current percentage of optimum aura health and balance.
Now is time to exercise your imagination. What other measurements and corrections can you make with this chart? Remember: You can ask your higher self anything—even to improve the nutritious value of the food on your plate. Here are just a few sample questions: 1. What is the percentage of overall health of my [dog, plant, sister, husband, and so forth]? 2. What is the percentage of benefit of [a particular food, vitamin, herb, homeopathic remedy, and so on] for my energy field at this time?
Let us do another experiment. Refer to Figure 16b (Pendulum Chakra Chart). Place this chart on a table and swing your pendulum in the Ready position (which, for this chart, is swinging to the left). Ask your higher self aloud: “Which chakra needs more pranic energy now?” Your pendulum will move to indicate which chakra is currently depleted of pranic energy. Then move to Figure 16a and ask your higher self, “What is the current percentage of pranic energy in the [name of chakra needing energy]?” Your pendulum will move to indicate the current percentage.
Swing your pendulum in the Ready position and then ask your higher self, “Can you make beneficial corrections in my [name of chakra needing energy] chakra now?” If you get a “yes” response, return to Ready position and tell your higher self, “Please make the beneficial corrections and bring optimum pranic energy into this [name of chakra needing energy] now.” Your pendulum will move to make corrections and then indicate the percentage of energy now infused into that particular chakra.
Pendulum Color Chart The Pendulum Color Chart (Figure 16c) can determine your current aura color or any other possible information about color. Use the color chart to ask any of the following questions, or any other questions you can conceive of: 1. What is the primary color of my aura now? 2. What color is depleted in my auric field that would be beneficial for me to increase now?
What color would be beneficial for me to wear today? 4. What color light would be beneficial to project onto my [root chakra area, sacral chakr
