Even if you’re not sold on the science (or pseudo-science) of aura photography, there’s no denying the photos are fascinating.
The colorful photos are supposed to lend insight into your current nature, which can prove enlightening for some. Different colors represent different attributes, though it also depends on where the colors appear.
If nothing else, aura photographs make wonderfully artistic souvenirs of a popular, new experience.
Here’s a bit about how aura photography works and what you might be able to learn from it.
First of all, you’ll have to find a place that offers aura photography. One such place is the popular Magic Jewelry shop in New York City’s Chinatown. Portland Oregon’s Radiant Human also has a mobile aura photo lab that travels the country. A typical session at Magic Jewelry costs around $20 last we checked.
To have your aura photographed, you’ll need to press your hands against a couple of metal plates. These contain biofeedback receptors that are supposed to detect the energy in your hands. The idea is that it mirrors the energy inside you and around you as well.
This energy is what creates the colorful fog that’s layered atop your portrait.
If you’d like to do your own analysis, there are several guides available that explain what the different colors mean. Colors you may see in your aura include red, orange, yellow, tan, blue, green, purple, and white.
Colors found above your ears is said to represent your consciousness. The color found in the lower left-hand corner depicts how you see the world and the energy you’re receiving. To the right is the energy you expel – how the rest of the world sees you. If your aura photo has an arch, this may represent your aspirations or an important goal.
Some other interpretations see the color on the left side of the photo as representing your past. As such, the right would represent your future.
To many, the idea sounds a bit hokey. Some scientists claim the colors are determined by things like how sweaty your palms are. Of course, our emotions may have something to do with that, too.
Many folks have found their readings to be accurate though, and it is a pretty fascinating process regardless.
