Aura Within Us was born from a shared passion for energy, healing, and the unseen connections that shape our lives. Founded in 2024 by Inder and Amrita Banga, our work blends advanced aura imaging technology with intuitive interpretation to create experiences that feel both modern and deeply soulful.
Aura Within Us was born from a deeply personal journey—one shaped by family, healing, and the quiet magic that happens when you begin to see the world through energy.
For years, Amrita immersed herself in Reiki and Soul Healing, bringing a sense of calm, clarity, and spiritual awareness into our home. Her practice didn’t just influence her clients—it transformed our family’s daily life. She taught our children how to ground themselves, how to trust their inner voice, and how to understand their emotions as energy moving through them.
For Inder, her work became a mirror—a reminder to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with his own intuition. Her healing opened the door to his exploration of aura photography, and eventually, to the creation of Aura Within Us.
Aura Within Us is more than a business. It’s a family practice—a shared belief that energy connects us, shapes us, and reveals the parts of ourselves we often overlook.
We believe that every aura tells a story—a story of emotion, intuition, connection, and possibility.
Our mission is to help people see themselves in a new light, celebrate their energy, and experience a moment of stillness in a world that rarely slows down. At the center of it all is a family rooted in love, and the belief that energy is the language of the soul.

Aura Color Guide
Red is the color of the Root Chakra, representing your physical connection to the material world. When red dominates your aura, it signals a period of high energy, physical strength, and intense willpower. It is the frequency of the “doer”—someone who is grounded in reality and possesses the stamina to bring ideas into physical form. In its brightest state, red shows a passionate, courageous soul who is unafraid of challenges. However, if the red appears murky or dark, it may suggest hidden anger, physical exhaustion, or a feeling of being overwhelmed by survival needs. Historically, red auras are seen in leaders, athletes, and those undergoing a massive life transition that requires raw power.
Key Traits:
Grounded, Ambitious, Passionate, Competitive.
Chakra:
Root.
Tools:
Red Jasper / Cedarwood Essential Oil.
Orange radiates from the Sacral Chakra and is the hallmark of the creative and social spirit. This color indicates a person who finds joy in the senses and is deeply connected to their emotional intelligence. An orange aura suggests you are currently in a flow state, whether that is through artistic creation, social networking, or exploring new pleasures. It is a warm, inviting energy that draws others in. When orange is clear, it reflects a productive individual who is confident in their ability to manifest desires. If the orange is muddy, it can point to creative blocks, emotional vanity, or a struggle with boundary-setting in relationships. Those with orange auras are often the “life of the party” or the innovative minds behind new, vibrant projects.
Key Traits:
Chakra:
Sacral.
Tools:
Carnelian / Wild Orange Essential Oil.
Yellow is the vibration of the Solar Plexus, the seat of your personal power and intellect. A yellow aura is like a burst of sunshine; it signals a period of high mental clarity, optimism, and a playful approach to life. People with yellow in their energy field are often logical thinkers who possess a sharp wit and a natural ability to inspire others. It is the color of the “teacher” or the “philosopher.” In its positive state, it represents a person who is comfortable in their skin and radiates self-confidence. When yellow appears dull, it can indicate overthinking, a lack of focus, or an inner struggle with self-criticism and perfectionism. Yellow energy encourages us to take life less seriously and to trust in our own unique brilliance.

Indigo resides at the Third Eye Chakra and is the color of “Inner Knowing.” An indigo aura signals a person who is deeply intuitive and perhaps even possesses psychic abilities. This frequency suggests you are more focused on the “unseen” world than the material one. Indigos are often quiet, serene, and possess a depth of wisdom that belies their age. They are the dreamers and the visionaries who can see patterns that others miss. When indigo is clear, it reflects a person with a strong inner moral compass. When it is muddy, it can suggest a disconnect from reality or a person who is overwhelmed by the “noise” of others’ thoughts and energies.

Aura Colors
Each aura photograph captures the energy radiating from and around the body, including the seven primary energy centers — or chakras — that correspond to different aspects of our physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing. Here’s a brief guide to what each one represents:
Located at the base of the spine and associated with the Earth element, the Root Chakra governs vitality, physical stability, and our sense of security. A balanced root chakra expresses as groundedness and physical strength; imbalances may appear as anxiety or lower back tension.
Associated with Water and located near the navel, the Sacral Chakra governs creativity, sensuality, and emotional fluidity. In harmony it brings satisfaction and clear emotional expression; out of balance it may manifest as jealousy, emotional stress, or kidney and circulatory issues.
The Fire center, located in the upper abdomen, is the seat of personal power, self-esteem, and active intellect. A strong Solar Plexus supports independence and happiness; imbalances may appear as arrogance, dependency, or digestive discomfort.
The Air element chakra at the center of the chest, the Heart Chakra governs love, generosity, healing, and compassion. When balanced it radiates selflessness and care; imbalance may contribute to anxiety, heart, or respiratory concerns.
Located at the throat, this chakra governs communication, creativity, and authentic expression. A clear Throat Chakra supports good communication and inspiration; blockages may appear as communication difficulties, infections, or bronchial issues.
The Ethers center, located between the brows, governs intuition, vision, clarity of thought, and high ethics. When active and balanced it supports creative insight and emotional clarity; imbalances may relate to obsessive thinking or eye and facial concerns.
Located at the top of the head, the Crown Chakra connects us to higher consciousness, spirituality, and integrated awareness. A luminous Crown Chakra expresses as light energy and expanded knowledge; imbalances may manifest as disconnection from the body or mental confusion.
For guests who want to go deeper, The Full Aura Journey is our signature premium experience — and a market-exclusive offering you won’t find with any other aura photography provider in the region. In addition to a full-color aura portrait and personalized reading, each guest receives a 15-page Chakra Analysis Report that explores all seven energy centers of the body in detail.
he report covers each chakra’s harmonious and imbalanced qualities, its corresponding element, crystal and mineral affinities, essential oils, and specific emotional and physical indicators. It’s a meaningful, take-home wellness resource that guests return to again and again — not just a pretty photograph.
FAQs
— Science & Technology
The Aura 6000 is the classic 1970s-style camera that uses Kirlian-inspired film. The AuraCloud 3D Pro is the modern, digital evolution. While the technology for capture differs—the AuraCloud uses a high-precision biofeedback sensor to measure electro-dermal activity—the final color representations are essentially the same. Think of it like a vinyl record vs. a high-fidelity digital recording: the "soul" of the music is the same, but the AuraCloud allows us to see the energy in 3D and provide much more detailed data.
Your aura is a luminous, electromagnetic energy field that surrounds your body. It is a dynamic reflection of your emotional, physical, and spiritual state at any given moment.
Yes, absolutely. Aura photography is non-invasive and uses extremely low-voltage biofeedback sensors. It is completely safe for both mother and baby.
