Question: Is it possible to sense the human aura rather than to see it?
And my answer: Concerning this sense of seeing the human aura. More accurate than imagined, is it not? For in a sense, we are seeing all the time, and not always with our physical eyes. For there are many ways to see.
Let us consider the term therapeutic touch. I believe it is a term, put forth by Dorothy Kunz, a member of the Theosophical Society, and also a nurse. She and Elizabeth Kubler Ross, as well as Stephen Levine had made marvalous advances in the field of medicine. They have helped this country accept the idea of Hospice; which in turn, has helped to bring about the Living Will. A noble achievment, in my opinion, for I have experienced the inner workings of having a loved one in an Intensive Care Unit and know first hand about the dilemmas facing the individual soul who is about to pass over to the other side, as well as the emotional trauma that the family and friends must cope with. Hence, the expression: Coping With Death and Dying. And then there are the caretakers, the medical staff, itself. A very *special* breed of people.
Therapeutic Touch: I call it healing through the aura (but only because I do not usually touch the physical person of those to whom I will send healing energy). Others coming from a religious framework, might refer to it as the laying on of hands --- something a nurse does all of the time.
Now, if we were to ask: How can this ability to developed? I know of only one way. It is through the act of love. Esoterically speaking, this means opening up the heart chakra. Generally speaking, the healer must form a trinity. That is to say, we try to get the mind and the heart working in unison with the hands. Do you understand this? I surely do hope so because understanding the basic of all principles is at the heart of all spiritual healing.

Hi there again Cosmeta!
yes I would say that there for sure is a sensing of an aura. I know when I sit to close to someone I can feel their aura energy bouncing against mine... hard to explain but I feel it all the time.
Also Reiki would be a good example of healing through the aura wouldn't it?, I have had this done before and its fantastic.

Howdy, howdy,
Yep, we do it all the time, that's fer sure. I think one of the first times I ever noticed something was when I was visiting a family member and all of a sudden I got the strangest feeling by being around their pet dog. Hard to describe but it was an electrical sensation that made me want to run. Then, within seconds the dog might raise its hair or start to growl. In that instance I always thought of it as some kind of chemical reaction... You know, that fight or flight response associated with the adrenal glands.
When I was a teenager I had the darnest time of it, ... just trying to figure out what emotions and thoughts were mine and which belonged to another. This confusion was only present I noticed when I was with a group of people. I would always hear thoughts that never really seemed to be mine, and yet they were because they were coming from my own mind and not words spoken by others. Took me a long time to figure out that I was tapping into the emotions and and subconscious thoughts of those within my auric field. Took me even longer to try to siphen out the things that were not mine. Know what I mean?
And talk about picking up on an illness .... I could pick up an illness just by being near someone. And that too had its problems if I thought they were mine and not those of another.

wow Cos you really are sensitive to it, that would be cool to have.. although like you mentioned I can indeed see its downside.
it's funny you brought up electrical sensation because thats what I feel when close to other people, It feels just a little sharp and electrical and I often take a little step back if I find it to be uncomfortable. I can't say that I can obsorbe their emotions etc though.... I am going to pay closer attention next time.

I have to smile, because I know exactly what you are saying. But I have a question for you: When you step back, do you ever take notice of just how far back you step? I ask this, because in doing so, you are intuitively finding the outer perimeter of your own auric field, and/or possibly theirs. The question is, what portion of the aura are you working with; the physical aura or the emotional aura; because it is those too that are most easily felt at close range.

I am separating your previous post, because it seems to me, that each section can bring us to different conclusions. Well---they have for me. ~smile.
Have you even paid attention to *which* chakra is being effected?
I have found, that depending upon my connection either to that particular person, the situation at hand, or even my karmic connection to either/or, different chakra points are effected or played upon. I will give you a few examples of what I think are common to most of us, even if we are unaware that we are really dealing with chakras.
You are talking to someone, and in the middle of the conversation, or sometimes minutes or seconds before it, you start getting in that quizy nasueous feeling in the pit of your stomach but around your belly; so we are really talking lower abdominal or 2nd chakra. It feels like a jumping, nervous sensation... almost like a pulsing or throbbing electrical sensation. We Italians have a name for it. I am not sure of the spelling so will do it phonetically. It is called a-ja-da. Then there are times, when we would really like to say something to someone but can't or won't for whatever reason because our throat seems to block up and or we will get in a knot that just closes down our throat chakra. If we don't take care of it by saying what we need to say, sometimes we might even develop a sore throat. Well, these are sensations that don't just magically appear as if for no reason. They are happening because one or more of our chakras are being played upon.

The Human Aura
Copyright Protected, 2003
I just thought I would put this here. It's a graphical drawing I made to be used for a essay I have yet to create which deals with the various portions or layers of the auric field. Working from the center out, we have the following:
- Physical
- Etheric
- Astral
- Mental
- Spiritual
The physical aura remains close to the physical proximity of the human body and is confined to the body cells and molecular structure of the body mass. The Etheric belongs to the health aura of the person and is the intermediary between the physical plane of existence and the astral plane. The astal portion of our auric field is largely responsible for all emotional desires and has a close correspondence to the Etheric. Hence, it is my belief that the etheric and astral are largely responsible for producing what we humans call, pain because they are connected to human feelings and sensations via the seven spiritual chakric centers of the body. Under normal circumstance, the Etheric Body Double is said to extend outward from the human body by 1-3 inches; whereas the Astral or Emotional Aura can measure 18 feet or more. The mental aura can extend outward and is limitless as it meets the spiritual aura. Needless to say, the physical aura is confined to the physical body and its electromagnetic force field.

Hey Cos! Great information in that last post, I know that the stronger ones well being/ spirtual etc.. the larger and more vibrant the aura is. I know when I meet these people, you can't help but feel and sense their auras! I work witht he public and when I feel this from someone I often feel the need to compliment them on it but I keep it to myself JIC. ALthough if someone came to me and told me that they could feel a vibrant and strong aura around me I would be indeed complimented.
Hope that made sense .. its late lol.
Now re: what you say about can you sense which chakra a person effects you.. YES I sure can! If its a sexual attraction or a soul mate attraction I often feel it from my orange chakra, if its empathy I feel my green heart one will throb.. or my blue etc. I can notice it from most people if I simply pay attention, which I have really been doing lately.

Lunagirl... Now re: what you say about can you sense which chakra a person effects you.. YES I sure can!

Good for you, Lunagirl. Not everyone is aware of our interconnectedness with others. I think the most important part of "paying attention" as you called it, is also to be aware of who and what we are. We have to develop a good sense of our own auric fields. To do this it is important to know thyself... and yes, inside and out. Of course having a good sense of our other reincarnational selves is also helpful.
If we take the idea of energy fields, we find that different people can effect us in different ways. Some attract, some repell and some may even disperse our auric energies, in my opinion; and it wouldn't necessarily have to be anything they are willfully doing. In other words, it can just happen because of the nature of our two fields colliding; and may or may not have anything to do with any past life or karmic connection.
If you can find a partner to experiment with, blindfold yourself, ask them to move several feet away from you, and then try to move toward them slowly, to the point where you feel you are very near to them or to where your two fields begin to meet. To get a good sense of this however, it might be helpful to do this with several people, lest you just be measuring the distance from you to just one other individual in your life.
Matter of fact, even if you are alone you can do this sort of experiment. By blindfolding yourself, see if you can touch walls or furniture but through your auric field. The idea here is to gain a sense of where you begin and end. To begin to measure your auric sphere. When you find it, you can envision an auric field about yourself as you move through your daily activities. Then when someone moves into your sphere or circle of activity, you can begin to notice differences in energies, and wouldn't necessarily have to be standing right along side of them to do so. Alternately, you can just sit or stand in one place, (again blindfolded) and have another person move slowly toward you. Call off when you can *sense* them. Try it both, in front of you, to the back of you, as well as to each side. You may find the results of interest. ~smile.

Absolutely. there are a variety of ways. One way is sensing with your hands and feeling the aura. If you bring your hands close to someone or even a plant an feel the energy with the palms of your hands. You might feel an energy field that could be hot or cold. Or maybe you will feel the energy push your hands away.
Another way is sensing a feeling about the person. Ever meet someone new and you feel really comfortable. Or perhaps you meet someone and you feel very uncomfortable around that person. Your higher self is sensing the auras of the persons you know nothing about. Yet you can feel them.

yes Reiki is a good example of energy healing. By using the different symbols the healer can help facilitate healing to the healee. I often combine symbols when I use Reiki. One in peticular is the mental symbol which all most illnesses have a mental component to it.
