Try seeing your own aura first. Sit in a relatively dark (not totally dark) area and enter a meditative state--if you never meditate it's a good thing to learn.
After you have reached a point of relative mental calm, hold your hands up and observe them. You should be able to see your own aura around your hands. The color won't always be the same, but typically it's a sort of pinkish glow.
If you have pets, try to see their auras. Animals are usually pretty easy to see this way, as they seldom bother to shield themselves. I hope this was helpful. xoxo Scarlett

it's a bit like looking at something and not looking at it at the same time. that's how i learned anyway. it's really hard to not see them once you're used to it. i still can't see them any bigger then a couple inches though. also i couldn't tell you diddly about what someone's aura says about them.

It seems difficult for me to view auras on moving objects, and it's always one solid color all the way around the object. I can't seem to see more than a few inches either, maybe im just lacking skill? Or does the rest of the aura require astral sight?

If you can see any aura at all you are doing better than most people. The best thing to do is try not to go by a "system" but just what you see with your own... I would say eyes, but it's not just eyes. Your senses...? that's not right either.
Everything has an aura, even so-called "non-living" things. Right now I am looking at the aura of an unlit cigar... xoxo Scarlett

Yea I used to practice my aura viewing on inanimate objects, that's how I built it up. I used to view auras of hairbrushes, soda, ect. My Aura layer closest to the skin appears to be green. As for what system I use I think I mostly just stare at one spot and shift the focus of my eyes in a way that's hard to explain.

For me I know I'm there when whats in my head and in my surroundings seem without seperation, everything is important but not significant, you just are and your worries are gone. Sounds hard but all you really have to do is relax and let go of your thoughts and let them run themselves out of steam, all it takes is patience waiting out the storm so to speak, the biggest difficultly at first is not falling asleep.
First time you do this could take up to 30 mins depending on how pulled by your thoughts you are, dont worry though as you experience the shift it becomes eaiser to reach the state from memory of what it feels like. There are plenty of resources around this page alone if you need some exercises to take your mind off itself.

My experience with Auras has always been rather strange. Ever since I was little, I could see what I thought were the auras around people, these thin bands of light that I could 'see'...kind of...but thought nothing else about it. Then I saw a television show about looking at auras, and in the interpretive sequences where they showed what someone looking at an aura might 'see', it didn't fit in with what I was seeing at all.
I stumbled on a website (http://www.crystalinks.com) that had exercises for practicing meditation and auric viewing, and I had a great success with that. I used to practice looking at whoever was speaking on stage at my local Kingdom Hall because it was easy to see it against the neutral backdrop. Excellent stuff. But I could always see this other band of light around someone, and I noticed something that seemed to hold true. This band I have seen since I was little seemed to be in some way indicative of a person's religious stance. For example, Evangelical Christians tend to simply glow with a Golden color. I find this one rather upsetting because of the hypocrisy I have observed in many of these 'Golden Christians', have I have called them. Other religions have other colors, but most seem to fall inside a neutral blue/green color that seems to me to be an "I just don't know or care" belief about them. I don't know if this is part of the aura or not, but it seems to work for me just well.
As for the 'aura proper', I don't so much see it as 'feel' it. I can look at someone and just 'know' what their aura 'looks' like. I don't even have to be looking at the person. I can be talking to someone on MSN and if I zone in I can 'see/feel' their aura. It's really strange.
Any thoughts?

That makes sense. I guess I should try meditating once in a while. I wonder if listening to music is a form of meditating?
@Ai Shite Maku - that's pretty interesting that people have different sort of rays depending on their aspirations? Does that mean it might have something to do with who they have contact/pray to?

For me the aura looks like a band of distortion around the profile of the object. On humans I see a band about 3 to 5 inches thick, unless they are sick, then the band is usually thinner. Or if the band is pulsing from thin to thick on their head, then usually they have a headache, at least from what I noticed, but once in a while I'm wrong as well about the headache and sick, but I'm still learning myself too.
Now on animals it's only a thin 1 or 2 inch thick band. The same goes for objects such as rocks or plants.
What I'm working on is seeing the colors inside the aura now instead of a clear bright distortion.
Also, I have the same problem as someone else. I have a harder time seeing the aura when someone is moving.

I've never quite found the point, in personal application, to putting much weight or concern on reading auras. I'm much better at reading body language, behavior analysis and good old intuition, when dealing with other beings.
But, when I've practice looking for them, I've found it much easier if the being is still and in front of a light colored, simple background. They show up a sort of full-body halos, to me at least.

I'm actually not sure, to be fair. I've never been around many people who pray to someone other than the Christian God save for my one Muslim friend who has a sort of sandy yellow but yet aqua blue light to him. One would argue that Allah and 'God' are one and the same. I don't know. I think it would be interesting to try it with people who worship other gods.

I remember the first time I saw someone's aura... I was in a job interview when it was like white solar flares shooting off the interviewers head. I was watching them instead of looking in his eyes... I guess that is why I didn't get the job. Though I'm happy I got to see it.
For me the way to see it is to look just slightly away from the person and for me it starts looking like static surrounding the person. Depending on how much energy the person is willingly giving out will affect the colors that I see... though usually I only see movement in white... like a fog swirling around them.
Also if I TRY to see someone's aura it's harder to see it... if I just relax my eyes it comes into focus quicker.
Hope this helps...

Question...
Auras are around animate and inanimate objects so when something dies or is dead how does the aura change?

For me, non living things have a "thin skin". Buildings even seem to have a brownish tinge.
Living things or electric wires have much bigger auras that are harder to see, they seem to move.

I have noticed the fact that auras on living things are harder for me to see but I associate that with the fact they are usually active. I agree with the "thin skin" thing but that skinny colored layer is actually the only layer I am able to see on living things as well. Me = novice aura viewer
Another thing I noticed is that with inanimate nonliving objects thier aura color is directly associated with thier polar opposite on the color spectrum. For example, a green object will have a pink aura always, just as a blue object always has a yellow aura, and vice versa. At least when I view them anyways.

Yeah I would be very interested to know if you ever find out what it looked like with others that worshipped other Gods.
@banishinglies - You're right it'd probably be interfering too much.

NOTE: if you get really good at entering these states without any outside influence, you can enter them at will!
its not so much interference as it is a "program" for your mind. When you work with meditation you work with your subconscious levels. These levels react certain ways to certain things. If you use music to meditate, when you try to not use music to meditate, it'll be harder to "get in touch". Hope that makes sense@banishinglies - You're right it'd probably be interfering too much
