The Long of It
Red
Red is the beginning of your journey. Associated with the Root Chakra, red is the base color of our energy centers. Red is also at the base of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, the physiological layer that concerns the basic primal needs for food, sex, and clothing. Red keeps you safe and in your body. When the body is stressed or traumatized, you might dissociate and leave or numb the human experience, but red pulls you back into the body to help keep you present and grounded. When starting a new project, forging a new relationship, or getting to better know yourself, red is the step back before the leap forward. Red prepares you for all the sh*t you need to get done and helps ground you in the present moment. Did you ever notice the use of Red in many fast food restaurant logos? That’s because the psychological effect of Red makes you hungry. So Red gets you grounded, and then gets you going!

Orange
Orange is the color of raw creativity and manifestation. Associated with your Sacral Chakra, where the sex organs are located, it is the literal and figurative place of birth. Orange allows you to create something from nothing - to pull ideas from your imagination and create them on earth. Since Orange exists in the emotional layer, it also carries an energy where negativity can easily get stuck. Do you remember something that happened a long time ago that has a lasting power to instantly make you angry? That is because that emotional memory is stuck in the emotional layer of the aura.

Green
Green is the love you share with your community and the planet. Green is one of the greatest healers because it connects you back to the earth. A walk in nature can do wonders for your soul, and green works the same way on the aura. Green auras are at such peace because they resonate so closely with love. If you’re experiencing a hard time, surround yourself with Green by eating green foods or bringing a houseplant into your home.

Blue
Blue is the color between violet (brain energy) and green (heart energy) on the optical spectrum of visible light. Associated with the Throat Chakra, Blue ties together the power of mind and heart through communication and self-expression. No matter how psychic you might be, you still need to be able to communicate with your inner state through your Throat Chakra. Blue is the color of water, and water always travels in the path of least resistance. Therefore, Blue serves as a reminder to go with the flow. Water also can fill any container, making it a powerful energy for expansion. Like a snail getting a new shell, Blue helps ease a transition into the next version of yourself.

Purple
Purple represents eyes-in-the-back-of-the-head kind of energy. The knowing before you know. Have you ever had a skill that you easily picked up? That shows Purple at work. Connected to the unknown and supernatural, Purple allows you to connect to your clairaudience (hearing), clairvoyance (seeing), clairsentience (feeling), and claircognizance (knowing).

White
White is the lightning strike. A moment perfectly illuminated before returning to darkness. White allows you to see things for how they are and to separate yourself from the tangle of human emotions. Associated with meditation, white allows for a bird’s-eye view of any situation. While Red is the beginning of the journey, White marks the end. Self-actualization occurs in the energy of Crown Chakra.

Brown
Brown is the dirt beneath our feet. Like Red, it is a very grounding color. Standing barefoot in the dirt, even for just 15 minutes a day, has the documented effect of helping heal the body. While Brown can be grounding, it may sometimes show up as confusion and indecision in the aura. Since Brown is a mixture of several colors, it may create uncertainty at times.
Chakra - Root
Planet - Earth
Key Words: Grounding, Confusion
Black
Black is a compressed rainbow that encompasses all color. Black is a powerful color when getting to know yourself. Associated with hibernation, a Black aura marks a time to step back and re-evaluate your life. Black represents the night and reminds you to rest. Choosing to work with Black and stepping into the cave can be powerful. However, if you don’t accept the rest, the body sometimes will take it for you, allowing the shadow aspects of Black to surface.
