Aura

An aura is the subtle field of energy that surrounds the body, described in many spiritual traditions as a living map of your emotional and spiritual state. Its colors and brightness shift with your mood, vitality, and awareness, and sensitive people say they can see or feel it.

Why It Matters

Aura colors give people a vocabulary for talking about mood and energy. Used lightly, they become a prompt to check in with yourself.
