I have a question that maybe someone could answer. Last year I went to my first psychic faire and had an unusual experience. As soon as I walked in the door, I felt tons of energy and eyes turn to stare at me as if I was a freak show. My guide panicked and kept poking me in the ears making them ring and be quite painful, it wanted me to leave. My boyfriend wanted to have his palm read so we stayed.
While he had his reading, I noticed that everyone had these aura photos pined to thier shirts. I don't know if I believe in aura photography but they were all very beautiful so I decided to have one done. After the photo cmae out the photographer said he had never seen one come out like mine before adn sure enough, no one elses photo look at all like mine. There is a huge variety of colour and three distinct orbs floating above my head and a box that seems to cut my head off. The photo reader didn't know what to say about it and neither did anyone I spoke to. With my guide still being a persistant pain in the neck (or ear as it were), i decied that was my cue to leave.
I don't know a thing about aura photography but I would love to find out if it is fake or not. If anyone knows more about it and could take a shot at interpreting my picture.

Even if aura photos turn out to be fake,it is still one of my favorite pictures of me because of the great use of colour!

((((((( sylbana18 ))))))) sorry to burst your bubble here, but aura cameras are built to project artificial light directly onto the film while taking the picture, thus giving an aura affect and are totally fake photos, the lights are activated by measuring skin resistance (same principle as lie detectors) which has nothing to with auras what so ever. Other cameras that don't use skin resistance just project random light onto the film. You can also read more about the cameras and how they work in more detail at this website

I tried meditating to see my own aura and all I saw was white mist. I know it is unrelated to sylbana's post but GL did mention a white mist in another post.
Any Views?

Hi (((((((((((((ronkira))))))))))))))))
We are all radiant with our own personal energy field/life force every day that we are here on this earth and it is a part of us - each of us radiate energy and light.   This energy reaches out far beyond the confines of the physical body-some a uric fields are narrow others very large, some people see aura's as a white mist whilst other people see colours in the aura, each of us has the ability to see aura's, we are able to perceive them, but some people perceive them better than others.  
I believe that we all see our own aura's every day in relation to the colours that we wear ,we all experience different feelings when wearing different colours' for instance i feel at my best when i wear purple' ar pinks, you each probably have favourite colours that you like to wear more often than not this reflects the very colours that are within your own aura.     There are many ways in which we can perceive the beauty of an aura one of them is to sit yourself down in a dimly lit room and either let one of your friends be the subject or you can have your Dog sit for you 'like i did ', the best background to use i have found from a personal point of view is a plain wall, preferably with no patterned wallpaper .   
The subject would sit comfortably whilst you concentrate on the area around the body, i found that looking just above the head as though looking past the subject and not actually straight at them worked best for me, but this may be different for you, you will find the best way for you personally...you could try this exercise and see what results you get!    My friend who came to visit me had never see an 'AURA' in her life ,but the first one she did see was mine*Smiles Proudly*lol.
Practice makes perfect and once you get a glimpse of the aura you will want to look futher,some people as i say do see colour, to be honest i have never seen such vibrant colours as shown in your photo ,then i guess it all depends on the individual.   
Our own Aura is as individual to us as our own personality, and is made up of numerous colours but not all colours are always apparent in all auras - again it all depends on the individual .    Don't take my word for it- try the exersizes for yourself and see what impressions you yourself receive.    I hope that you get great results in trying to see the aura ,practice will bring good results ,i have found that eventually your brain will become more aware of the impressions that it's receiving if you practice regularly.       It is important that you always use protection before embarking upon any' Psychic/spiritual exercises', you can find out how to do this by viewing the 'protection procedure' that can be found in the protection page *Site Menu*      
Hope this helps with lots of love and huggs rainbows of light all around you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

hmm I came across an article a few months back about aura photography so I'll copy and paste some of it, for interest's sake (if anyone wants the url for the entire article I have it somewhere):
How An Aura Camera Works: A. Sensors are placed on the skin - or fitted into a chair so they contact the subject's skin. These sensors measure the electrical resistance in the skin (galvanic skin response). Electrical resistance in the skin varies, according to salt and moisture level. These levels are affected by many things: diet, fluids, health, temperature, sweating, emotion, mood, activity, etc. B. These readings are fed directly into a small electronic processor, attached to the camera (usually a small black box) and interpreted by it. This processor then generates a pattern of electrical signals, from these readings, according to how it is programmed. C. This pattern of signals is then fed into a specially modified camera. Inside the camera, an optical colouring device creates a variable pattern of coloured lights, and beams this directly onto the film, as the picture is taken. This gives the illusion of a colourful aura surrounding the subject - according to the pattern generated by the initial readings.
Em, I've never heard a theory like that before. What book was this? (yes I'm sure you've posted it somewhere but I've either missed it or haven't come to it yet, lol). It sounds quite interesting.

Hi,
Im fascinated by this topic..I have just popped here to have a look after just seeing Pinks aura photo. I understand what your saying about the photos being faked..as I have always been a little bit skeptical when it comes to photographing your aura. But about 2 years ago I remember watching some random channel on sky tv..cant remember what one though? Anyway, they was discussing auras of objects. I remember that they had an apple on there and they photographed it, and the aura around this apple was blue. The man then cut the apple in half and then just photographed one half of the apple...but the aura came out whole as though the apple had not been cut. I think the man was say9ing something along the lines of the apple holding the memory of the other half..but a little while later he took another photo of the half an apple, and you could see that the aura around the side where there was no apple had started to fade. I know this of crystals aswell, sometimes if a crystal has been cut, it can still hold the full original energy of the shape shape before it got cut. So was that fake aswell? I assumed it was genuine, as Im sure it was a science type of programme..a factual programme at least.
If they are fake though, they do look pretty... Rachel..xxx

(((((((( Rachel ))))))))) what kind of the camera did they use in the program? if you have read how an aura camera works you will know that its artificial light that's projected on to the film based on skin resistance (same as lie detectors use) so its not actually taking a picture of any aura at all but artificially projecting random colours based on skin resistance that's how these so called aura cameras work and that's a fact I'm afraid. You've got more chance of capturing a "real" aura with a normal digital camera, just like we can capture spirit on them, It may be worth experimenting with this to see if we can capture a real aura with our digital cameras

Hi
I cant remember all the details, Im sure though that the camera was like a polaroid type of camera...they sat the object onto a plain white flat surface. Thats all I can really remember. I have always wondered if these aura photographs are genuine...but something never sat right with me..I dont know why, but I have just always felt a bit unsure as to how genuine it all is.
Thankyou Rachel

I've just found this interesting link with a Polaroid type aura camera for sale...
http://www.cebunet.com/aura/
notice at the bottom in small print they say "Images made by the aura emulator cameras are simulations only." Which means they simulate the aura and not actually take the picture of the aura.
The other issue that annoys me is people are being ripped off with a so called aura photo, spending anywhere between £10-£30 for a photo that's not even their own real aura.

Edit: for some reason they have changed what it said in the small print to: "No scientific instrument in existence to date can conclusively measure the human aura"

(((((((((((((Friends))))))))))))) I think that these people who do these photo's should make the recipient aware that they are NOT Aura photographs but in actual fact they are "SIMULATED" photographs, there's a huge difference between the two Simulation is in fact Imitating , thus that something not being REAL , and the price that they charge for doing this is obscene.
All well and good if you Know that they are only SIMULATED, but then these people who are taking your money from you don't tell you this which infuriates me . bless all of those who have had this done(((((((((Huggs))))))) thinking that these photos were of your actual Aura's

| Mark: Would it then be fair to say that the camera takes a technology-based picture on what it thinks your aura should look like?

Well you could say that but it still isn't a genuine aura photo, its the same principle as lie detectors work, the colours are artificially generated based on your skin resistance and not a photo of the aura which is what aura photography claims it to be. You will never get a genuine aura photo using those cameras, its a technological fact.

I know this is a bit of an old discussion, but having just read it, I was interested to read that these aura photos are 'fake'. I wasn't quite sure how accurate they were or weren't. I had one done about 4 years ago, and for me I have to say it was the best £20 I ever spent!
I was a sceptic in all things spiritual but for some reason I felt like having one done, more out of curiosity rather than anything else. I have to say that the reading I was given about the photo was very accurate. And without going into too much detail, I was told that the white spots around me on the photo were spirit trying to help me but I was blocking them out. I dismissed that part of the reading, at the time, as I didn't believe in spirit, however a month or two later I started thinking about it and decided to go along to a local spiritualist church. For me that was the best thing I have ever done and my life is so much the better now for haivng opened up to spirit. I would never have considered going to a spiritualist church, if it hadn't been for my 'aura' photo.
Just thought I would share my experience with you.

Hi Sez , sorry but I don't know anything about aura photography , but you can bet your life the GL has done his research on the subject
The only comment I can make, is that you were drawn to this and it has lead the way for you to follow your path on your journey in finding the truth about spirit . A blessing in disguise

Thanks for your reply Mat. I agree that whether or not the Aura Photo is fake, the main thing was that I became more open to the possibilty of spirit and it is the events from then that have led me to the spiritual path and journey I am now on. I am so glad I had my aura photo done becaue if I hadn't I may have still been a total sceptic now and totally unaware of the spirit world!
