Edgar Cayce on Auras & Colors. Kevin J. TodeschiЧитать онлайн книгу.
Carol Ann’s research with “the men in white coats” began.
Over the years Carol Ann Liaros has logged more than one million air miles in traveling to teach individuals how to use their own intuitive gifts. She eventually authored Intuition Made Easy, a book that explores how people can use and experience their psychic perception. When asked to describe her first experience seeing the human aura, Carol Ann recalls:
I remember telling Dr. Justa Smith that seeing auras was not one of the intuitive skills I possessed. She asked me: “Don’t you see colors or anything around people?” I told her I didn’t. Sometimes I saw hazes and glows around people or behind people but I couldn’t see auras and colors and discern when someone had a physical problem.
Dr. Smith said, “Let’s try an experiment. Take a look around me. Do you see anything around me?”
Thinking that auras were in color and that I was only seeing a glow around her head, shoulders, and arms, I laughingly told her I couldn’t see her aura. She persisted in questioning me. I looked at this grayish glow and said, “There seems to be a break in it from about the bottom of your ear to your shoulder.”
She said, “That’s very interesting because I have a neck and shoulder problem that I’m being treated for and that’s exactly where it is.”
Well, being the skeptical, logical thinker that I am, I decided it had to be a coincidence. Besides, I could see the same kind of haze around tables, chairs, lamps, animals, and trees. I saw it around everything. My misconception at the time was that auras only radiated from human beings.
Soon afterwards, I began experimenting with this haze or glow. I might ask someone, “Do you have anything wrong with your ear?” because I might have seen a break there, not as much energy, or it looked aggravated. And they’d respond, “Yes, as a matter of fact, I have an earache.” Persisting as the very logical person that I am, I went to the eye doctor and had my eyes checked. My eyes were fine.
Many, many months later when I finally began to see colors around people, I thought, “Oh, I have glaucoma. That must be what this is. It has nothing to do with seeing auras.” And so again I went to the eye doctor. I did not have glaucoma, and I was still seeing colors around people.
One of Carol Ann’s most fascinating experiences teaching individuals to see the human aura occurred while she was working with a class at the YWCA in Batavia, New York. She explained to the students what the aura was and how to begin seeing it by refocusing the eyes on a higher, finer level of energy. She then stood up against a white screen wearing her black outfit (so their minds wouldn’t say, “that’s only a reflection of the color”) and had them do a relaxation exercise with their eyes closed. When they opened their eyes, they were asked to describe whatever they could see. Many saw a huge glow; others could see colors behind her, and so forth. One of the students in the class seemed to demonstrate a tremendous level of accuracy.
Carol Ann had several more students come up one at a time and stand with their backs against the screen in order to give the class the ability to see how one person’s aura might look different from someone else’s. Some saw different shapes, intensities, and colors; and again the same individual showed a real talent for seeing the human aura.
Finally Carol Ann asked for any volunteers to come forward who possessed a physical problem that wasn’t obvious and couldn’t be seen. These auras gave the students in the class the opportunity to see how the aura looked “different” wherever a physical issue was present—for example: wider, narrower, darker, lighter, bulging, or indented. The same male student proved to be talented with this exercise as he was able to see various shades of color and was able to pinpoint areas where there was a physical problem because the area “looked darker” to him.
After the class, the wife of the talented student came up and asked, “Did you see how well my husband did?” Carol Ann replied that he had done a great job. The wife added, “But, you don’t know the best part—my husband is totally blind!”
Carol Ann was stunned. It turned out that the man was forty-one years old and had been blind since the age of fourteen, with no light perception. His wife had dragged him to the class because she didn’t want to attend alone. He had also attended as a “non–believer.” When he was asked how he had been able to see the auras, he thought for a moment and said, “Well, I did with my mind what you told the others to do with their eyes, and I could see it!” When he was asked to show where in his mind he had seen the auras, he pointed to the middle of his forehead—the third eye. This experience became the original impetus behind Carol Ann’s founding and directing “Project Blind Awareness,” which for many years was an innovative training program designed to enhance intuition in blind participants in order to help them become more mobile and independent. Presently, Carol Ann is convinced that anyone can be taught to experience the aura:
Our eyes are accustomed to seeing on a very dense level of energy—this physical level. We appear to be solid but in reality our physical bodies are made up of millions of moving molecules with a lot of space in between the moving molecules. All it really takes to see an aura is an eye adjustment. We need to train ourselves to see on this higher, finer level of energy. It is simply a conscious refocusing of the eye.
The purpose of exploring the aura is actually to better understand the self. In the same manner that tools such as astrology, psychic readings, numerology, psychological tests, personal introspection, dreams, and more can empower an individual to become all that she or he was meant to be, working with the aura can be beneficial in overcoming one’s issues and in cultivating personal strengths. Most often the aura is ever changing, multi-layered, and multi-colored. The size, shape, and colors generally change and evolve depending upon what an individual is doing, what she or he is thinking and feeling, and whom or what the person is encountering. Like a mirror, the aura provides a reflection of the individual, but it is a reflection that details both the exterior and interior parts of one’s self. The key to seeing auras is similar to undertaking the rest of the psychic processes. The key is being able to relax.
This book was written in order to provide individuals with information about the human aura—what it is and how it can be experienced. In addition to citing contemporary examples as well as examples from the life’s work of Edgar Cayce, the book explores the meaning of colors and how the vibration of color can impact individuals. It also examines what colors may mean (positively and negatively) in the human aura. Even if you’ve never seen an aura before, or believed it was possible to see an aura, this book will give you the tools to experience the human aura. It is hoped that this book might make some small contribution to understanding the fact that each of us is much more than a physical body and that some of the tools we need in order to know the self have been with us all along—we just didn’t know where to look.

1 Edgar Cayce on
Auras and Colors
The Edgar Cayce material examined in many ways not only the subject of color but also the idea of auras. A major area of exploration in the Cayce readings is that of personal symbolism. This topic is discussed in readings dealing with dreams and dream interpretation as well as the interpretation of personal signs and symbols (such as those contained in artistic renderings of what the readings referred to as life seals and aura charts). There was also a thorough exploration of symbolism undertaken by a group of individuals who called themselves the Glad Helpers Prayer Group. Although the primary interest of this prayer group was working with prayer, meditation, and spiritual healing, the group also obtained readings on a number of subjects that explored personal symbolism including the interpretation of the Book of Revelation and an exploration of the connection between the spiritual chakras and the endocrine glands of the physical body.
