Aura's

Chinese medical pratitioners call it chi, Hindu mystics refer to it as shakti, medical intuitives call it an energy field and Occultists refer to it as an aura.  It's existence has been recorded since ancient times, notably in primitive art.  In the Sahara desert, for instance, in the rocky massifs of that harsh terrain, paintings that date back to the ninth millenium B.C. show human figures surrounded by an envelope of light.  In Catholic literature, these luminous orbs are decpicted as halos.
This energy field is the essense of who we are, a subtle variation underlying everything phsycial, both living and inanimate - some of us may see it more easily whereas others may feel it.   The energy field radiates outward from the body, forming a dome of light that can be several inches or several feet wide, depending on the individuals emotional, spiritual and physical state at any given time.  It's composed of at least seven energy disks or chakras that run down the center of the psychical body, from the crown of the head to the base of the spine.  Each of these chakras has a different color and function, which are important to medical intuitives.
