Quick Answer
Every color in your aura carries a specific vibration that reflects your emotional state, physical health, and spiritual evolution. While your "Base Aura" (personality type) tends to remain stable, your "Mood Aura" changes rapidly. For example, Red signifies grounding and passion (or anger), Blue signifies communication and calm, and Violet signifies spiritual connection. Understanding the spiritual meaning of these colors allows you to diagnose your own energetic health and understand the people around you on a deeper level.

The aura is the palette of the soul, painting a real-time portrait of your inner world.
