Aura Awareness: What Your Aura Says About You [Paperback]

C. E. Lindgren (Co-editor), Jennifer Baltz (Co-editor)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 21, 2007

Everyone has an aura, or energy field, that surrounds their bodies. Your aura is an extension of who you are. You might actually consider it as your own personal playground. By becoming more aware of your aura, you can learn about yourself and grow in ways that most people cannot even imagine. With the tools and exercises in this book, you will learn to see auras and gain a whole new way of looking at life! Aura Awareness includes information and photos demonstrating a new technology that can help healing practitioners measure subtle shifts in energy that appear in the aura. Known as Aura Imaging Photography, this technique produces a color print of the subject's upper body, surrounded by clouds of colors. Creator of the Aura Camera, Guy Coggins, says, "The Aura Camera does not 'see' auras, rather it perceives them electronically, using a computer program to transform measured energy impulses into an auric image." Typically, the aura of a person in pain or discomfort will show a dark or muddy shade and appear close to the body. When the aura color shifts to the opposite or complimentary color, the person has most likely experienced a dramatic change or healing.

This review is from: Aura Awareness: What Your Aura Says About You (Paperback)

The book goes through all the basics . It talks about the interpretation of auras and how to use it in everyday life. Shows you how to see auras without the camera. Explains the type of equipment and research used to photograph Auras. Talks about what different cultures have used auras for thousands of years in their traditional medicine.(includes various topics such as charkras and crystals, which have their own chapters.) Lots of relevent atribution and research material so you can go deeper into the topic. Doesn't shove any product or concept down your throat. :)

This review is from: Aura Awareness: What Your Aura Says About You (Paperback)

I purchased this book because I was serious in trying to find practical, real information on auras. I was sorely disappointed. This book is nothing more than a wacky cartoonish version of secular humanism wrapped in a naive, hippy type of world-view that talks about the colors they supposedly see around the human form. I believe in auras as vibration, light and energy that are emitted from the human body, soul and spirit as it interacts with the world around it, both spiritual and material. I believe that our auras are set within the (world's) context of good and evil, both from within and without. I was hoping to find more realistic, sophisticated, real-world information that would advance my understanding of this phenomenon. There is none of that found in this book. Instead I found laughable, shallow, second grader talk!

The authors use the pronoun "you" so many times one becomes dizzy. It is also clear that the authors don't believe in objective truth, that it is all inside of "you" (yawn), by using such expressions as "everything originates from within" (page xv). Everything? EVERYTHING originates within me? So, now I'm God. Really? This humanistic Shirley Maclainish idea that we are the center of the universe is pathetic and thin. They encourage the reader to "find your own truth," which is just another expression of the boring contemporary humanistic penchant for relativism. I'm sorry, but all opinions and world-views are not equal, some are plain silly, wrong and/or stupid. They also say such things as "we are made of light" (try walking through a wall), and speak about "love colors" as if we are all just happy go lucky people full of love and smiles. They even have a section in the book that supposedly reveals the code for how to read the aura colors. I note with interest that none of them are negative. News flash: there is evil that exists in the world, just pick up your newspaper or turn on the news. Nothing in this book addresses evil or talks about the auras one gives off if he or she is thinking of evil or committing it, or shows attachment or oppression by evil spirits. One gets the clear impression that these naive authors believe we are all just frolicking through a field of daises reading each others' auras as if we were animated life-sized mood rings in human form.

If you are searching for useful information on auras that one can truly appreciate as serious, well thought out, and deeply researched, then keep looking. This book is definitely not in that category, so don't waste your money. I would recommend Michelle Belanger's book "The Psychic Energy Codex," Chapter Eight, entitled The Human Aura. This particular book belongs in the "hippy, flower-child let's just ignore reality and all just love one another and read each other's happy colors" section; or in the children's book section. I would rather read Dr. Seuss - at least the cartoons are better and you get a great moral lesson!
