We each have a unique way of processing information to make sense in this physical world.  If you are feeling a bit out of sorts, perhaps you are ignoring your preferred way to process information.  An aura can be thought of as an egg-shaped band of colors that totally surround the body.  As the waves of energy that make up the aura change their speed of vibration, the colors of the aura also change.  A slower vibration creates red and orange, faster vibrations create blue, violet and indigo.  People can consciously draw in a color for a specific purpose, such as healing, prosperity or compassion.  The one or two bands of the aura closest to your body reveal your priorities, methods of processing life and the primary purpose for being on the planet.  These are your life colors and these bands do not usually change.  The outer bands of the aura frequently change colors and positions, these changes reflect what is happening with you at a given time.  There are three families of life colors: physical colors, mental colors and emotional colors.  Those with life colors that are in the physical family process information predominantly through their physical bodies through touch.  Physical colors include red, orange, magenta and yellow.  Those with life colors that are in the mental family process information intellectually by first gathering information then analyzing it.  Mental colors include logical tan, abstract tan, sensitive tan, environmental tan and green.  Those with emotional colors for their life color process information primarily through their feelings, emotions and intuition.  The emotional colors include blue, violet, indigo, lavender and crystal.  People cannot generally ignore or discard the attributes of their original life colors without experiencing a sense of disconnection, confusion and disharmony within themselves.  Most people need to fulfill their original life colors before they can expand to the other colors, meaning they must first love and accept who they are before the can satisfactorily experience the qualities of the other colors.  Source: Life Colors by Pamala Oslie.  Note: This book also includes a questionnaire that will help you identify your life colors.
