Every Aura Tells a Story. We’re Here to Help You See Yours.

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.

A Legacy of Healing

Our Story

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

The Chromotherapy Encyclopedia

RED: The Frequency of Vitality

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: The Frequency of Creativity

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: 

Creative, Social, Playful, Sensual.

Chakra:

Sacral.

Tools:

Carnelian / Wild Orange Essential Oil.

YELLOW: The Frequency of Optimism

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.

Key Traits: 

Logical, Cheerful, Confident, Intellectual.

Chakra:

Solar Plexus.

Tools:

Citrine / Lemon Essential Oil.

GREEN: The Frequency of Growth

Green vibrates with the Heart Chakra and is the universal color of healing and balance. To have a green aura means you are a natural nurturer—someone who is likely in a period of personal growth or is actively helping others heal. This frequency suggests a deep connection to nature and a harmonious approach to life’s challenges. Green energy is calm and stabilizing. It is often found in the auras of doctors, nurses, healers, and teachers. When clear, it shows a person who is open-hearted and compassionate. If the green is heavy or dark, it may represent a “healer’s burnout,” suggesting that the person is giving too much of their energy away and neglecting their own self-care and emotional boundaries.

Key Traits: 

Healing, Compassionate, Nurturing, Balanced.

Chakra:

Heart.

Tools:

Jade / Bergamot Essential Oil.

PINK: The Frequency of Tenderness

Pink is a rare and beautiful variation of the Heart Chakra’s energy. It represents a state of pure, unconditional love and gentleness. Unlike the deep compassion of green, pink is more focused on the sweetness of life, affection, and romance. A pink aura suggests that you are currently in a very sensitive and loving state—perhaps you have recently fallen in love, or you are practicing deep self-love. It is a highly creative and artistic frequency that values beauty and harmony above all else. When pink is dominant, it shows a person who is kind-hearted and easy to get along with. However, a muddy pink can suggest a tendency toward over-sensitivity or a struggle to remain grounded in the face of harsh realities.

Key Traits: 

Affectionate, Gentle, Romantic, Soft.

Chakra:

Higher Heart.

Tools:

Rose Quartz / Rose Essential Oil.

TURQUOISE: The Frequency of Clarity

Turquoise is the bridge between the Heart and the Throat Chakras. It is a highly dynamic and expressive color that signals a person who is a “master communicator.” Having turquoise in your aura suggests that you are able to express your heart’s truth with incredible clarity and influence. This is the color of public speakers, singers, and influential writers. It represents a fusion of emotional depth and intellectual expression. When turquoise is vibrant, it reflects a person who is highly organized and capable of managing multiple projects with ease. If the color appears blocked, it might suggest a fear of public speaking or a struggle to align your inner feelings with your outward words.

Key Traits: 

Dynamic, Expressive, Organized, Clear.

Chakra:

Throat / High Heart.

Tools:

Turquoise / Spearmint Essential Oil.

BLUE: The Frequency of Serenity

Blue is the vibration of the Throat Chakra, representing peace, loyalty, and calm. A blue aura suggests a person who is deeply intuitive and values truth and honesty above all. Blue energy is soothing; it is the frequency of the “mediator”—someone who can stay calm in the eye of a storm. When your aura is blue, you are likely in a period of deep reflection or are communicating your ideas with a sense of authority and grace. It is the color of a reliable friend and a dedicated seeker of truth. A murky blue, however, can point to a fear of the truth, a tendency toward melancholy, or a feeling of being “blue” and emotionally stagnant.

Key Traits: 

Calm, Loyal, Trustworthy, Reflective.

Chakra:

Throat.

Tools:

Lapis Lazuli / Lavender Essential Oil.

INDIGO: The Frequency of Intuition

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.

Key Traits: 

Intuitive, Wise, Serene, Deep.

Chakra:

Third Eye.

Tools:

Sodalite / Clary Sage Essential Oil.

VIOLET: The Frequency of Vision

Violet is the highest frequency in the visible spectrum and aligns with the Crown Chakra. A violet aura is truly enchanting; it represents a person who is a visionary, an artist, or a spiritual leader. Those with violet energy are often here to change the world in some way. They possess a high level of charisma and an ability to see the “big picture.” Violet energy is transformative—it can take a low-vibrational situation and elevate it. When violet is dominant, it shows someone who is highly connected to their higher self. If the violet is dark, it may represent a “spiritual ego” or a feeling of being misunderstood by a world that isn’t quite ready for their vision.

Key Traits: 

Artistic, Visionary, Charismatic, Spiritual.

Chakra:

Crown.

Tools:

Amethyst / Frankincense Essential Oil.

MAGENTA: The Frequency of the Original

Magenta is a unique and powerful frequency that exists outside the traditional spectral lines. It is often seen as the color of the “non-conformist.” A magenta aura belongs to someone who is unapologetically themselves—a true original. This energy represents a fusion of the passion of red and the spiritual vision of violet. Magenta people are often inventors, avant-garde artists, or social disruptors. They see the world differently and aren’t afraid to walk a path that no one else has taken. When clear, magenta shows a vibrant, innovative spirit. When muddy, it may represent a person who feels isolated or struggles to fit into the structures of modern society.

Key Traits: 

Unique, Innovative, Non-Conforming, Vibrant.

Chakra:

Soul Star.

Tools:

Dragon Blood Stone / Geranium Essential Oil.

WHITE: The Frequency of Purity

White is the color that contains all other colors. In the aura, white represents a state of complete balance, purity, and spiritual transcendence. It is often seen as a “blank canvas”—a person who has achieved a level of harmony across all their chakras. A white aura can also appear when someone is undergoing an intense period of spiritual cleansing or has achieved a breakthrough in their meditation practice. It is a highly protected energy that reflects back the energy of the world. Because it is so rare to maintain, white often appears in fleeting moments of intense clarity. A muddy white is almost never seen, as the frequency is too high to hold “darkness,” but it may appear as a dull grey when energy is severely depleted.

Key Traits: 

Pure, Transcendent, Balanced, Divine.

Chakra:

All Chakras / Etheric.

Tools:

Clear Quartz / Palo Santo.

FAQs

The Collective Knowledge

 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.
