I was sitting in a lecture hall with my friend Amelia, waiting for peace troubadour James Twyman to come out and talk. I whispered to Amelia, “Do you see how the auras of the women in front of us are intertwined? They must be close friends.” Amelia shook her head no. She has psychic abilities, but seeing auras isn’t her forte.
An aura is an emanation of light surrounding a living being. It pulses, expands, and contracts. It can change color with emotions and circumstances, but a person will typically radiate one predominant color. I’ve had many people tell me my aura is green.
Since not everyone knows how to see auras (you can learn–it’s not difficult.), not everyone believes they’re real.
But now, maybe the doubters will believe.
Researchers from the University of Calgary and the National Research Council of Canada recently conducted experiments on mice and leaves from two distinct species of plants. They discovered a “biophoton” phenomenon in all three. They glowed. What’s more, the glowing ceased with death.
The study I read was long and science-y, but the upshot was what many people have known about for millennia. We literally glow with health until we don’t.
The scientific and medical communities can use this research to diagnose weaknesses and illnesses in living things. And I hope that one day they learn to use it to see a being’s energetic and emotional health.
I love it when science catches up to the spiritual community.
