Aura Colours Meanings

Can you see your Aura? Are you able to see other people's Auras? or Have you had your Aura photo taken?

Do you realise that we all perceive colours and shades of colours differently?

Please be aware that there are many factors that determine your awareness of colours, including your own perception of light vibration and frequency.

The following are some suggestions (there are many different aura colour meanings out there) of the aura colours meanings.

The more you learn about yourself and what is around you, you will start to see different shades of colours and higher vibrational frequencies.

Being unique, there will be no two auras the same, so there is no need for comparison. We are all different and the aura will reflect that in many ways.

There are also no mistakes in interpreting the colours.

Everyone sees colour slightly differently, especially if you are colour blind so trust your instincts too and go with the word description if you hear it too.
