Auric Bodies

Etheric Body
(First layer)

This most visible layer is made of tiny, shimmering, flowing, rays of energy. It has the same structure as the physical body including all the anatomical parts and all the organs. The etheric body extends from about ¼ to 2 inches beyond the physical body and pulsates about every 2-5 seconds.

The etheric body is constructed of a definite structure of geometric force (like the earth’s ley lines) forming an energy matrix upon which the physical matter of the body tissues is shaped and anchored. The physical tissues exist as such only because of the vital matrix. This etheric structure sets up the matrix for life cells to grow along these lines. The energy field is the foundation of, and not the result of, the physical body.

If one were to isolate the etheric body, it would look like a duplicate of the physical body, made of interconnecting and flowing silvery light lines in constant motion. (This is the area energy workers most often manipulate in healing)

The color of the etheric body is seen as various hues of silvery/bluish white. (Gray, if the body is in a negative mode.) A receptive person with a sensitive body will tend to have a brighter fluent first layer, whereas a more physical (closed) person will tend to have a smaller, darker, and/or denser etheric body. An ill person may have no etheric layer visible especially at the point of the dis-ease.

Emotional Body
(Second Layer)

This second auric layer, the Emotional body, is associated with feelings and approximately follows the outline of the physical body. Its configuration is much more fluid than the etheric and does not replicate the physical body. It appears to be in continual fluid motion. It extends at least 1 to 3 inches beyond the Etheric body.

The rainbow colored emotional layer penetrates the denser bodies that it surrounds. Its amorphous, ever-changing swirls of colors vary from brilliant clear hues to dark muddy ones. The brilliance depends on the level of positive or negative feeling/ energy that is produced. Clear and highly energized feelings such as love, excitement, joy or anger are bright and clear. Those feelings that are confused are dark and muddy. As these feelings become energized through personal interaction, body psychotherapy, etc., the colors separate out into their primary hue in conjunction with the corresponding chakras.

In this emotion-color equation, an angry or aggressive person, for example, will have a great deal of dirty red in his aura, an intellectual person a lot of yellow, a spiritual person white and/or violet, and so on. We even have them in everyday language “he saw red”, “in the pink”, etc...

The Mental Body
(Third Layer)

The third aura layer is the Mental body. This body is composed of still finer substances, all of which are associated with thoughts and mental processes. This body usually appears as a bright yellow light radiating around the head and shoulders sometimes extending around the whole body. It expands and becomes brighter when concentrating and tapping into the intellectual/mental processes.

The mental body is also a structured body. It contains the configuration of our ideas. This layer is predominantly yellow. Within this field can be seen thought forms. They appear to be indistinct masses of varying brightness and form. These thought forms have additional colors superimposed upon them, energy actually emanating from the related chakra as well as frequencies interacting with the universal energy that is connected to the thought form. The clearer and more well formed the idea, the clearer and better formed the thought mass associated with that idea.

We enhance these thought forms by focusing on the thoughts they represent. If we have a compulsive thought form the more we focus on the obsessive mass the muddier the color.

The Astral/Buddhic Body
(Fourth Layer)

The fourth layer, the Astral body, is amorphous and is composed of clouds of clear vivid rainbow colors that are usually infused with the rose light of love. This layer extends about 1-3 feet from the body. The chakras are the same octave of colors as the rainbow of the emotional body, but each chakra is infused with the light of love. The heart chakra of a loving person is filled with rose light on the astral level.

A great deal of interaction takes place between people on the astral level. Indistinct masses of color of various forms network between people as part of the universal interfacing. The Buddhic layer is our “radar”. When we feel uneasy about someone across a room, (someone that is apparently not even aware of our presence), on the astral level a lot is happening. On this energy level there is a whole series of communication taking place with matrixes of energy thought forms moving throughout time and place. These forms relate as timeless interaction and connection of souls. Regardless of what is happening in the “present” we are reacting to what has occurred since the origin of the life energy as well as to future dynamics if there is interfacing. If the people are compatible the fields are synchronous.

Etheric Template
(Fifth layer)

The fifth layer of the aura, the Etheric template, contains all the forms that exist on the physical plane in a blue-print form. It is similar to the negative of a photograph. The template for the etheric body, forms the grid structure (structured energy field) upon which the physical body grows.

Thus, the Etheric template level of the universal energy field contains all the shapes and forms that exist on the physical plane, as the template. It extends from about one to two feet from the body. The higher Etheric Body is the carrier of the Will, and any form of individual will originates from here.

In dis-ease, when the etheric layer becomes disfigured, Etheric template work is needed to provide the support for the etheric layer in its original template form. It is the level at which sound/frequency creates matter. On this level sounding in healing is the most effective. It is as if a form is made by completely filling in the background space, and the empty space left creates the form.

The Celestial Body
(Sixth Layer)

The sixth level is the emotional level of the spiritual plane, called the Celestial body. It extends at least two feet from the body. It is the level through which we experience spiritual ecstasy. We can reach it through meditation and many forms of transformational work. When we reach the Celestial body we are at the point of “being”. We know our connection with the universe. We see light and love in everything that exists. When we are immersed in the light and feel we are of it and it is of us and we feel that we are one with the universe, then we have raised our consciousness to the sixth level of the aura.

Unconditional love flows when there is a connection between the open heart chakra and the open celestial chakra. In this connection, we combine the love of humanity, our basic human love for our fellow humans in the flesh, with the spiritual ecstasy found in the spiritual love that goes beyond the physical reality to all the realms of existence. Combining these two creates the experience of unconditional love.

The celestial body appears as beautiful shimmering light, composed mostly of pastel hues. This light has a gold-silver shine and opalescent quality, like mother of pearl sequins. Its form is less defined than the etheric template level. It is composed of radiant beams of light.

The Ketheric Template or Causal Body
(Seventh Layer)

The seventh level is the mental level of the spiritual plane called the Ketheric template. In most it extends from about two and one half to three and one half feet from the body. When we bring our consciousness to the seventh level of the aura, we know that we are one with the Universe. The outer form is the egg shape of the aura body and contains all the auric bodies associated with the present incarnation an individual is undergoing. This body, is intricately structured.

The frequency level of the seventh layer, illuminates/radiates at such a high frequency it creates a constant golden shimmering light. For the less evolved soul this light may extend a few feet beyond the body. For the highly developed lightworker this layer extends through all the planes on which the worker must access. All the chakras and body forms appear to be made of translucent golden light on this level. This is the strongest, most resilient level of the auric field.
