Because we humans are highly visual, the colors we see can have a profound impact on our moods.
Observed colors can stimulate our energy, make us wildly happy or just plain content.
Keep in mind that the interpretations listed here are for general reference. Each individual has unique blendings and vibrations of color. And, you will find that your aura can change colors. Often, there is a baseline set of colors that you have most of the time. You can change that temporarily or even permanently if you experience a major shift in your life. You can learn how to change the energy in your aura through meditation and other spiritual practices.
Red: Force of will; passion; vitality; desire; excitability; intensity of experience; physical activity; stress; sometimes anger.
Red is an active, fiery, physical energetic color. People with red in their auras are ready to take on the world. They will not hesitate to fight for their beliefs and their freedom. Force of will and passion are key here. A lot of red in the aura indicates a person who loves to push the limits and live life in the fast lane. Dark or muddy red may also indicate unresolved anger or stress. If a lot of deep or bright red is seen in the aura over time, it could mean that the person is probably on overdrive and may be out-of-balance. This person might need to slow down a little, or his body may do it for him through setbacks in life.
