People are often alarmed when they learn how to read auras and chakras and find that their own aura imaging interpretation shows dark, intense colors. Is an aura with dark hues a “bad aura”? In our own experience, it’s a bit more nuanced than that.

Note: This article is written according to metaphysical beliefs.

What Really Makes for a “Bad Aura”

Saturated dark colors that blend and move fluidly together are not necessarily bad. So, if not dark colors, what are the indicators of an aura in need of healing?

If the aura is dim, muddy, or cloudy, that suggests there’s an imbalance in the aura or chakras. As a result, this person may be radiating negative energy, at times seeming to drain surrounding people. A partial or intermittently broken aura is also a red flag, as is a patchy or spotted aura. A healthy aura surrounds the entire body, and all the colors meld well with each other in harmony.

The Truth About Dark Auras

While some dark colors and patches are bad, not all of dark colors are harmful. In fact, some dark aura colors actually represent traits and qualities that would help you endure the trials of life and succeed. In this aura color guide, we’ll explore some dark colors that are present in the aura and what they mean.

Dark Violet Aura

Some people view dark violet auras as dangerous or toxic, but that’s not the case. People with violet and purple auras are thought to be exceptionally connected to higher spiritual planes. This comes with unique burdens. At times, people with violet auras suffer from negativity or dark nights of the soul. This may be expressed in a transient way within a dark violet aura.

All this said, this isn’t a bad aura color: heightened spiritual awareness is generally a good thing, even when it presents personal challenges.

Dark Indigo Aura

Imagination, a contemplative and wise nature, and at times a certain detachment from the material world may produce an indigo aura. This aura color is subtle and can come across as dark in its resting state. If you happen to see a dark indigo aura around someone, it might mean that the person has latent inborn psychic powers that they aren’t tapping into. This color is only second to violet in terms of spiritual intensity and vibrations.

Dark Blue Aura

It’s rare for anyone to interpret dark blue negatively. Blue is the color of the sea, the sky, and life-giving water. In the world of auras, dark blue is a color of perception and foresight. It is also the color of depth and calm. A person with a fluid, dark blue aura may be a peacemaker and source of serenity for others. People who emit this aura are also highly intuitive and are often great aura readers themselves.

Dark Green Aura

This is another dark aura reading color that can be misinterpreted. Green auras can be very dark or very light, based on the nature of the person. When it’s dark, it can almost appear to be dull black, which can throw off amateur aura readers. But green isn’t a bad color. In fact, it represents life and growth and vibrates with the beating of your heart.

People who have this color in their aura are generally very calm and compassionate. They tend to be healers or teachers. The most intense the color is, the more successful they’ll be in their chosen professions.

Dark Orange Aura

Dark orange-red is associated with social influence. People who have this color in their aura are apt to be strong leaders with great confidence and personal power. Dark orange is associated with intensity, sometimes physical and sometimes intellectual.

If you have a dark orange aura, your intensity may overwhelm some people. Don’t mistake that for a negative thing: that attentiveness and intensity is part of your personality, and it can be a real gift when you are faced with difficult decisions.

Dark Red Aura

Red is synonymous with passion and represents the physicality of a person. People with dark red auras are passionate, determined, active, and very energetic. In fact, they’ll find it very hard to sit still and want to be constantly on the move. This is definitely not a bad aura color.

They’re also very courageous and bold and often leap forward before they think of the consequences. Red aura reading color is often found in chefs, soldiers, EMTs, police officers, adventurers, celebrities, etc. This color isn’t as connected to the spiritual aspect of auras as other dark colors mentioned above.

A Dark Aura Isn’t Always a Bad Aura

As you can see, dark colors aren’t always harmful. However, that doesn’t mean you should ignore the presence of dark spots in your aura. Muddy brown or black patches can be a sign that you’re not at your best and should be addressed immediately. If your aura is clouded and has patches, we recommend you get an aura cleansing done and remove those dark spots. Meditation, salt baths, and other such treatments can help you recover.

What are chakras?

Chakras are vortices of energy that emanate from the human body. These centers appear to mirror our energetic health and our spiritual state. These seven gateways may be balanced with the use of color, crystals, visualization and meditation.  The chakra system is also the way you may bring extra energy into yourself so you can channel it.

The Root chakra is your physical and spiritual foundation. It allows you to connect with the earth’s energies and it empowers your soul. The Root chakra supports all of your other chakras.

Balanced chakras create positive life-force energy. When any or all of the chakras are out of balance, it will show up in the aura.

Chakras have corresponding colors as follows:

• Root – Red
• Sacral – Orange
• Solar plexus -Yellow
• Heart – Green
• Throat – Blue
• Third eye – Indigo
• Crown – Violet

Chakras are considered to be a powerful connection from your foundation to your higher-self. Keeping them healthy and clear may bring you to balance, good spirit, and stronger intuitive connections.

Our aura, or energy field, constantly interact with the energies of people around us and it is normal for us to absorb some of the energy of those we come into contact with during the course of the day. For instance, if you have been in an excellent mood and then spend some time with a person who is negative, or someone who is very down trodden, you may find that your bright mood has evaporated as well.

This can occur because you have absorbed some of the energy of that person. This can have a very negative impact on your own aura, causing it to become imbalanced. It happens because our auras harbor the energies of different unwanted thought forms as well as unprocessed emotions. Sometimes different types of foods, as well as prescribed or recreational drugs, can taint the aura.

When your aura harbors unwanted energies, you may not feel your best. The good news is that it is possible to get your aura balanced either from an auric practitioner or by yourself. Aura energy healing can help clear out emotional-energetic blockages.

Rebalance Your Aura

Based on the different events in your life, aura and chakra balancing once every week or two is recommended. Every person is different and handles their lives in different ways, so there is no hard and fast rule as to how often you need to balance your inner energies. However, it can be helpful to try some simple steps to promote aura and chakra healing to bring that balance into your life on a daily basis.

The effect of having a well-balanced aura will be either subtle or dramatic and getting an aura reading can help you find that balance. 

Aura Balancing – Different Techniques

There are a number of different ways in which an aura can be balanced. Implementing the following strategies into your daily or weekly routine can assist you in gaining clarity over your emotional-energetic state.

Light

Light, either real or imagined, is one of the most classic aura cleansers. Sit down comfortably, then breathe deeply for a few minutes to let your body completely relax and unwind. Now imagine that your body is entirely filled with a bright, white light and visualize it restoring your entire body. This is one of the best ways to displace all the negative energy surrounding you. Take the time to relax and enjoy this rejuvenating feeling.

Follow these same steps as many times as you need until you feel the energy flowing through your body. It’s important that you visualize it within your energy field allowing it to displace all the negativity that you’re feeling. The idea is to push out all the negativity, sadness, worry into the universe where it can be neutralized and then reabsorbed into the larger cosmic field.

Crystals

These are excellent aura purifiers. The most common crystals used in aura balancing include black tourmaline, selenite, obsidian, smoky quartz etc. However, you can use the crystals that you feel more drawn toward. You have the option to either hang it around your neck or carry it with you. Alternatively, you can also place it at the head of your bed or keep it in any area of your home.

If you feel that you want something more powerful, you can place the crystal on your forehead right between your eyebrows and then just lie down and relax completely. Imagine a white light emanating from the crystal and surrounding your entire body. You can also move the crystal stones repeatedly across your energy field from head to toe. The intention is to ensure that all the foreign or negative energies are absorbed by it. Once you have finished using the crystals for aura balancing, clean them by soaking them in some sea salt water.

Spend Time Outdoors

It’s important to spend as much time as possible outdoors. Try to walk in a wooded area or even along a beach.  Greenery, shade, or a cooling breeze from the sea are very effective in balancing your aura. If you get the opportunity to strike out on the weekend, make it a point to spend that time outdoors in a forest or near a river or stream. Allow nature to refresh you and calm you completely.

Aside from these strategies, it’s advised to practice building mental strength so that you can create a shield of protection around you at all times, helping you to keep negativity at bay. While these may seem like very simple steps, they are extremely beneficial in bringing back balance to your aura.

Have you ever felt a strange feeling of being intimidated or having an affinity to a certain person who walked into a room? How exactly does that happen? What is it that makes you feel these emotions (however tentative) about an individual you have never seen in your life? Is it the individual’s mannerisms, body language, clothing or overall appearance?

What you could be experiencing is the person’s aura that you are reacting to. We often hear people say that someone has a mysterious aura, or a very positive aura etc. So what exactly is an aura? In simple words, many ancient practitioners believe aura is a very powerful energy field that encompasses every living being. It looks like multi-colored luminous patterns. Every person has different colored auras and some of the auras have a more prominent color. These colors are a reflection of our personality.

In metaphysical belief, all living beings have a specific energy field which emits vibrations. Individuals that are sensitive to the vibrations are also able to see the colors of an aura. While it is pretty easy to see auras of other people it isn’t as simple to see your own aura. And understanding the aura can be even more complex. However, there is a test that can help you determine the actual color of your aura.

The Aura Color Test

This is an online aura color test and you will find a number of sites that have it. Often times, people will ask what it means if their aura colors are dark or light or what the different aura colors mean. In this test, you have to go through the color category statements mentioned below, and if you feel that something resonates with what your true nature is, choose the option “yes”. It’s important that you choose ‘yes’ or ‘no’ for statements that describe you best.

The answers shouldn’t be based on what people expect you to be or think you should be. Doing this will only alter the results, and won’t give you a clear idea about your true aura color. Go through the following color category statements and answer the questions. The color category that has the maximum number of ‘yes’ responses is your aura color.
