Energy field or Aura?

Question

check this out -

sit facing your partner or close friend, someone you know really well, ask them to close their eyes and slowly bring your hands down to their scalp, but dont touch their head or hair, ask them to say when they feel your hands near their head. You will notice they can feel when you are close to them but not touching them - is this their aura, or maybe some kind of energy field you are touching??

I'm totally bald and it works with me using objects eminating zero heat.

Answer 1

There is a field around a human body just as there is an unseen field around every living thing. Did I say unseen? Well, through the use of Kirlian Photography, images of an energy field around plants and animals have been captured on film. Google it if you haven't heard of it.

Many martial artists pratice defending themselves with their vision obscured. The artists train themselves to be able to extend their sense of presence beyond their physical bounds. It is hard to argue with somebody who is able to protect themself from attacks with their eyes and ears covered.

By focusing and practicing, a person can develop their ability to sense not only pressure, but also intention and emotion beyond their physical skin. Some people are able to detect imperfections in the energy field that have not manifested themselves physically yet. This is the realm of healers. Still others are able to percieve errant energies that are attaching themselves to another energy field. This work is done by mystics and sometimes mediums.

You have discovered a facinating phenomenon that is reflecting just one aspect of a very extensive field of study. The body is an amazing device, and the study of the energies in the body, from pressure points, to acupuncture, to Reiki, to Tai Chi/Quigong, to PET scans, and brain imaging, all provide a small glimpse into a much larger field.

If you're interested in learning more, look into Kirlian Photography and Tai Chi. Thanks for the question!

Answer 2

There is nothing “paranormal” in the Universe, except our limited understanding of Nature. What we think we “know” on Earth now is just a tiny drop in the Ocean of Knowledge
Everything in the Universe seems to be just a vibration. Every atom, every part of an atom, every electron, every elementary “particle”, even our thoughts and consciousness are just vibrations. Hence, we may define the Aura as a electro-photonic vibration response of an object to some external excitation .Everyone has an Aura. But most people on Earth have VERY WEAK and dull Auras. This seems to be a direct consequence of their life long materialistic attitude negating and suppressing the development of consciousness, cultivating fear, envy, jealousy and other similar emotions. Such attitude suppresses their True Nature, and their Auras seem to become suppressed too

I do know that auras are real and all, but I think this is a question of electromagnetic fields.

It is an accepted fact that all things have electric fields around them, though weak. Sharks can actually sense these fields and use it to find prey. But I think humans can a bit, too. My nose becomes tingly whenever anything gets near it, and I can feel things that come close to my skin. It might have to do with the electromagnetic fields.

Answer 4

I think it is probably that they can feel the body heat emanating from your hands. The subtle movement of air as you move your hands can also be felt. The slightest movement of even one hair can be sensed by the nerves around the hair follicle and this can also be a tip-off. If you are not in a darkened room, shadows cast by hands moving near the eyes can still be sensed through closed eyelids. A hand, if placed within a few inches or so of the outer ear, will reflect sound back into the ear canal and creates a white noise that can be distinctly heard. There are way too many natural explanations to consider this evidence of an aura.

Answer 5

I studied tai chi for about 10 years, and used to play around with this kind of stuff. A friend of mine was a reiki master (she was a bit flaky and was only able to convince me that reiki was total crap).
Anyway, playing around with it, I concluded that the body can sense when someones hand is close to it. If the person is concentrating and feeling this, they will begin to feel like the person is touching them, even though they are inches away.
You can do it with yourself, concentrate on your hands, bringing them together and pulling them apart.
My guess is, the pressure nerves on the body are sensitive enough to detect when the slight increase in air pressure. Blind sometimes can tell if they are going to bump into a wall, because they feel it.
Also, the heat from your hands makes them even more detectable, and the body picks up both the increase in air pressure from the movement and the heat.

Answer 6

aura, energy field, same thing. study the most amazing animal on the planet, the shark. they have an extrasensory natural radar, and so do you, you just haven't developed it because you dont realize that you have this talent, and no one has yet to tell you. my father has had microcornea most of his life, totally blind, and has been studied because of his extrasensory abilities, I could go into detail, but to make a long story short, you can't sneak up on him, and he participated in boxing when he was a young man, after he lost his vision, and never lost a match to any opponent, sighted or not.

Answer 7

Yes, it's your Aura or energy field, which sticks out about 6-10 inches from your body. Another fun thing to try and I have done this myself, is to point your finger at the persons back until they can feel it. Then draw the letters of a word or draw a symbol on their back. Have them guess what you wrote or drew and see how well they do. :)

Answer 8

Both. Every living thing has an energy field. Some are more senitive than others to auras also. I believe some of us can see others aura's. Great ? Peace!

Answer 9

The two posters above me got it right. Oh, and some magic energy field doesn't surround us. Auras are just another item on a long list of nonsense that New Age has provided us.

Answer 10

Try doing it when they don't know you're there.You'll see different results.I'll bet on it.
