A while ago I met someone who could under some conditions see auras. I believe this person is sincere in what he perceives, but we both for the most part are skeptical as to whether these perceptions reflect reality (he said he sees them, but like his parents always told him it's just his overactive imagination). I've always kept an open mind on these things though, so I'm not willing to just blindly disregard it.

Anyway, he always said I had a very rare aura color, one that he's only seen one other time - it's bright "purple" as he said. One day though he made an interesting comment when he pointed to a particular purely white flower and said "See that bright flower? That's the same kind of purple that your aura looks like". Obviously I was a little confused, pointing out that the flower was white, not purple.

Apparently he has a medical condition that allows him to see some of the ultraviolet spectrum, so flowers that to most people appear white/yellow/etc. can have brilliant purple color to them (a type of color that is not fully describable to "normal" see-ers it seems). Sure enough, I looked up the flower, and it's known to reflect ultraviolet light quite strongly.

So I have an ultraviolet aura? Strange. I thought I'd post this to ask people who might know about the "theory" of this, what it means.

Also, what does it mean when your aura expands? One day he seemed very startled to see me and was acting strange, and when I asked him he said my aura was huge and almost blindingly bright, to the point where he could barely make out my face through it. What does this mean, too?

Just curious. I'm kind of the skeptical sort when it comes to these things, but I like to try to keep an open mind, especially if there is evidence/experiences to consider.

Is ultraviolet a higher frequency or shorter wavelength?

If so, then you'd be vibrating at a higher frequency, which is supposed to be a good thing. Those who vibrate at a higher frequency are supposed to be the best able to survive whatever it is that is coming.

Well from all the new age and enlightenment kinds of stuff I have heard lately, the 2012 time is a time for great change. They see it as good change, in which we all gain a higher awareness or something.

Anyway, if you are already vibrating at a high level, the change will not be so bad for you.

I don't know what you'd see if you looked at my aura. I am kind of a negative thinker sometimes and I am down on myself sometimes.

I think those who have gold or white auras are supposed to be more pure. Green is good too I think.

It seems like when I really try to remember things from my childhood, I seem to have memories of when I could see something around people.

The only time I can see anything now is if someone is standing next to a white wall and I stare at them for a while. I don't even know if I am doing it right. If you stare at anything you will get an after image, and that isn't the same.

Purple is the color of Royalty.
You are destined for a purpose
of major consequence. Be prepared
for you have a calling you are unaware
of at present. You have a power
you do not know exists yet but soon
it will be needed and used.

When your aura expands you are
gaining energy from outside sources.

Kinda like your soul recharges

Interesting thread.

Sorry I don't know much about this topic.

I can say that I have seen auras myself, the only time I see them is sometimes before I get a migraine headache, usually 20 minutes to an hour before the migraine sets in, which helps me prepare for it since the migraine usually takes me out for awhile. The auras I see are very bright bands of color on both sides of my field of vision, even with sunglasses on they are still visibly bright, I've also seen them around people, animals, trees and other objects.

What does a flat black with spikes of red mean...was what I was told 30 plus years ago...

You could be an indigo child. You should learn how to see auras if you already cant. Go to my previous posts; I wrote out how to learn in another topic. Too long to re write but it could help you out. Haha.

good luck!!!

And for yours to expand. It just means that you are glowing more brightly than usual. When youre really happy or feeling excited, just any intense emotion id say.

Sorry to bring up this old post... but I was wondering about something lately. I've been pretty much absent from head-fi, working on real life stuff

I was traveling on business, and was sightseeing a bit. Some indian/hindu guy for some reason stopped me and said something about "you.. your face, you have a lucky/good future" or something like that, I wasn't sure what he was doing so we kind of just moved on. But he later came and said something about "I'm not trying to sell you anything, but I have to tell you you have a very important future" or something of that sort. It was very strange and awkward so I kind of moved on. Thinking back though, he seemed sincere... he seemed genuinely like he believed, at least, that he had to tell me something, but he was trying not to be rude/creepy.

I don't know. I don't want to make this sound like delusions grandeur, but it was weird to have multiple times in my life where "psychic" people find me interesting. I don't really believe in psychics, but I am not close-minded to anything.

Anyway, I think I would like to try some meditation techniques and just get to know myself better... I feel like this is a good thing that I should do, for some reason. What techniques would you suggest?

It means you are prone to conspiracy sites like ATS.

Deal with it!

bro you can call your "friend" up and tell him he's a liar. Tetrachromacy is literally IMPOSSIBLE for a male human or primate to have. There are only 2 and i mean 2 Tetrachromats listed in the ENTIRE world and both are FEMALE. Now before you get all defensive get over it, females carry the variant cone cell pigments on two different X chromosomes. Hence it's impossible for males to be tetrachromats. End of discussion. Your friend CANNOT see in Ultraviolet or Infrared. Not now not never bro you've been duped
