Kate O’Reilly gets
her aura read and is impressed with the results.
WE OFTEN talk about somebody being in a black mood, seeing
red green with envy. Many people believe that even though
we don't see it, what evident from early cave drawings surrounded
by halo type shapes. Later, in religious paintings, saints
and holy people were also often depicted with halos. It has
been suggested that artists could see light emanating from
around their sitters.
The theory is that every living thing, whether human, animal
or plant, led by an
electromagnetic field represented by a band of colours called
an aura, which reflects the person and their current emotional
state, thoughts, desires and anxieties.
Analysis can pinpoint areas in
our health and wellbeing that we need to address and suggest
how we need to use our energy in a more positive way. While
the colours are not usually visible to the naked eye – though some clairvoyants
and healers can see them naturally and it is possible to
train the eye to see them — modem technology, in the
form of an aura camera, allows a representation of this electromagnetic
field to be captured on Polaroid film.
Armed with three such aura energy photographs, one for each
of the past three years, I asked Angela Tarry for a colour
reading.
What she told me was as accurate as any other form of reading
I have had and very good at pinpointing how I was feeling
at the time of each photograph.
"The density of the colour and where it appears around
the head determines how the person is feeling, how they are
using their energy and their emotional, spiritual and physical
wellbeing," explained Angela, a psychotherapist and
colour healer who has been using the camera for the past
seven years.
While we all possess a complete rainbow of colours within
our aura, usually one or two are dominant and mine are green
-symbolising a balanced, down-to-earth and caring nature,
apparently -and blue, the colour of communication, hardly
surprising for someone who makes her living from words.
In 1998, overlying these colours were turquoise and yellow
which Angela said represented how I was using my emotional
and intellectual energy at the time. Yellow signifies knowledge
through intellect so I was thinking a lot about my career
and other areas of my life. Turquoise meant I was starting
to look at alternative forms of healing and spiritual development.
(This was the first time I had been to a mind/body/spirit
fair to investigate the different therapies available and
their uses.)
A lot happened in 1999 - new job, new house, getting married
-and when I got the second photograph taken towards the end
of the year I was feeling pretty tired, which Angela picked
up on.
"You've still got the blue
and the green but the yellow has intensified. What's happened
is that there's lots of thought going on, most of your
energy is right in your head and when it's yellow and chat
intense it can be quite negative. That strong white over
the top is a sign of stress. You were probably feeling
very tired at that time, completely zapped."
Things have calmed down since then and this year's photograph
showed an aura that was a lot more vibrant, according to
Angela. However, I'm apparently still inclined to keep those
stress levels high (an occupational hazard I suppose). She
also picked up on some food intolerances, which 1 have been
having trouble with lately.
What was interesting was the new
colour orange — which
signifies activity and thought, creativity and new beginnings.
A different direction in my career, Angela suggested. Who
knows?
