Can you see my (orange) aura?
I have developed a growing interest in spirituality, or maybe awaken some of what I used to have, growing up… makes sense? I don’t know. It seems the deeper we dig, the more we come to realize the well is bottomless.
Anyway, I went to the health and spirit-fair in Stockholm this weekend. My first reaction when I entered was the overwhelming creativity, thoughts and emotions stirring in the room, but I began to stroll around the stands of earth stones and books, tarot card readers and body and mind treatments. I wasn’t all that interested in buying stuff but more just taking things in.
The aura photography stand caught my interest with pictures of blue-red-yellow-pinkish halos around people’s heads. I though why not and sat down myself for a session.
In the blink of an eye a man had taken my picture and I was waiting for the result – the first actual view of my energy field.
It came out orange. Orange. All around me. Nothing else.
First I was disappointed. Why did everyone else have all kinds of different colours? That seemed much more complex. But the man that explained and interpreted my picture said;
You have a gift – orange is the colour of healing. You are healing yourself as well as others. It is also a colour of creativity, independence, joy and abundance. You give a whole lot, he said, but maybe you haven’t discovered how to focus your energy yet and that can leave you feeling drained. And there seems to be something unfinished…broken somewhere. He said that he saw turquoise and blue which I was happy to hear represented responsibility and wisdom.
I walked off with my picture, knowing that the aura is a gathering of energy around us and that it changes so whatever there was now will change, and change again. But it can always tell us something about our present state.
And my present chunk of orange had me thinking. Maybe I am making up for something by giving so much? Maybe I have placed all my attention on something outside of myself, when I should have been looking inwards? Inwardsun, right? How is it shining these days? Surely, I have been more of a rainbow before and in harmony, in green, blue and in clear white. But now there was orange, a healing process.
There was an elder couple I sat next too while eating lunch and without knowing this, the man looked at me and asked if I worked with healing. With a smile I said no. He said he believed I should, but that I should also go see a medium to take care of unfinished business in my past life.
As fascinating as it all sounds, I think I have enough with my present life at the moment.
What I did decide to do though, was to find a body treatment that I believe in, to start taking care of my back problem. I have a strong belief in the connection between body and mind, the physical and mental relationship. I instantly connected with the man giving bio-magnetism treatments, using kinesiology and muscle testing to find the keys. I trusted him completely.
We didn’t have to say much, he found the spot on my back by simply letting me answer questions while testing how my muscles reacted.
He then put a tiny magnet on the spot and told me this would balance me out. I am supposed to leave it there for a week. Before he let me go, we did an exercise on release of mental blocks. While he tapped certain points on my face and hands he had me repeat:
I am strong and whole. The pain I feel is just a product of my thoughts. I am ready to let go of these thoughts. I will feel no more pain.
Healing or not, I know I have that ability or faith. And when I stood up after that session I took the first deep breath in a long time, without the knot I have been carrying.
It is a first step but a big one.
Orange is a cool colour.
interesting
orange is my favorite color. hope you continue to heal/be healed! 🙂
I’m a ginger…I wonder if that counts…
You sure help ME, Helen. Just the book suggestions…the comments…and especially your writing. There might be something to this after all. I look forward to seeing where and what you do next. (No hurry…just do what you do…)

Thank you Andy!! It means a lot! Sometimes I don’t know why I am writing this blog, but you give me motive.
I am looking forward to see it all progress, naturally and with more honesty than our human hearts sometimes can bear.
I am having ginger in my tea right now 😉
OMG Helen.. It’s so interesting and i absolutely think you got healing powers. Just by your writing, your caring and overall love for other people. You do make a difference 🙂
Wish i could’ve been to the fair, but was working.. Oh yeah, paid for my tkt back to Cape Town today. Hopefully going back will make it easier for me to start writing again.. i really hope so!!
Take care angel.
Aaaw babe, means a lot…shiiiit, I miss you and Cape Town, can’t believe you’re FINALLY going back!! And yes, get on with your writing cause you rock!! So glad you are there to understand this whole trip we’ve started into the beautiful unknown.
Let’s share a box of wine soon!! 🙂
healing, WOW. Of others and yourself.
This makes sense to me also, in reading your post on green; yellow and red make orange, so I would be curious what those mean also.
I did a quiz of Facebook, that told me that my aura at that time is blue; I never had it studied however.
I do firmly believe and know, that if we don’t heal what ails us, it holds us back from what we really want in life.
Time for healing, dear Helen. You are ready.
You should totally look into this Vanessa, because it is soo interesting! Not to judge ourselves but to realize what kind of energy we are radiating. Obviously our state (and energy) changes all the time but there is definitely a guide line in this.
Facebook quiz – that is so funny! I can picture you in blue though, as it is a colour of good leadership, strong sense of idealism and justice (equal rights!) “Blue energy” also indicates a person that listens well before she makes a judgement.
I seem to be in a constant state of caring and I have always taken on the responsibility to fix what others have broken. But sometimes I end up doing more harm. I should learn how to let things be.
My own healing won’t be done like before. I AM ready for change.
Thank you for being here!
I lördags fick jag en fin komplimang av en tjej…hon sa att jag hade en tydlig aura omkring mig. Undrar nu vilken färg den kan tänkas ha?
Det måste vi genast ta reda på tycker jag! Men jag skulle tippa på alla regnbågens färger, du som har en sådan fantastisk UTSTRÅLNING Marlene! 🙂 Kul att du kikade in förresten! Kram!!
