SPRING FASHION COLOR TRENDS – What the 2010 Color Trends Say About Our Mood
(Use color to transform your personal style and well-being)

Pantone, the leading authority on color, sets the professional color standards for the design industries each year. According to their Fashion Color Report for Spring 2010, the top color this spring is Turquoise. Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of Pantone had this comment on the spring colors -  “Now more than ever, women are vigilant when it comes to spending. Instead of reinventing their wardrobe at the start of each season, consumers want pieces to complement what they already own. Pairing a bold color with a basic piece or freshening up their look with bright accents addresses the need for practicality, as well as fun”.

Two leading color and aura experts, Elizabeth Harper and Kala Ambrose are traveling around the US this year, to discuss the power and presence of color in your life and how it affects you on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. Teaching together at the prestigious Omega Institute in New York in July 2010, one of their first stops of the spring season begins right here in Raleigh, NC as they hold a 3 Day Event on March 4th, 5th, and 6th, hosted by Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship.  The event includes a lecture on Thursday evening, private color readings on Friday and an all day workshop on Saturday discussing Color and Auras, which are the colors seen by intuitive people in a field around the physical body.

Kala and Elizabeth teach that… “Color is the mirror of the soul. Every day waves of color-filled energy wash over us and the colors we choose at any given moment reflect messages from the deep knowing part of our being. The choices of color can be used not only in fashion, but in the food we eat, our creative pursuits, home decoration and work environment to enhance our well-being. Color permeates everything in our lives and can generate significant emotions; pink invokes love, green creates space, and violet inspires reverence. As hue-man beings we possess an awareness of color, but much of this knowledge is buried beneath the surface of our waking consciousness”.

According to Kala Ambrose, “Turquoise, the top color selected for 2010, represents self-expression and has to do with communication and healing.  Turquoise worn in clothing can stimulate the imagination and bring forth creative ideas and the turquoise stone, worn as jewelry can bring transformation.  The choice of turquoise this year signifies the mood of the people around the country who are ready to have their voices heard and want to bring about change in a big way. Turquoise reflects prosperity and collectively the color represents the desire by the people to heal from what has occurred nationally in the past few years and builds motivational energy to turn things around in the economy”.

In this column, Ask Kala -  Kala invites you to email your probing metaphysical, spiritual, holistic, esoteric and paranormal questions. Due to the volume of email she receives, she won’t be able to answer back individual e-mails. Instead, she’ll choose interesting questions and answer them here.  Here’s the latest question…

Hi Kala, My name is Tammy. I’m from Kansas City, MO. I have been wondering if when a loved one has passed and reincarnated, can you still make contact with them as the person you knew them as? Hope that makes sense! I’ve listened to many mediums – John Edwards, Lisa Williams, Mary Occhino… But I’ve never heard anyone speak to my question. Thank you!

Hi Tammy,

This is a great question. First, we must look at the soul. The soul is a container which holds our expansive energy and all that we are. We often think of our soul as being inside of our body, while actually, the soul is much larger than this and only a tiny part of the soul resides inside the body. The best way to picture this, is to visualize a pyramid, but imagine the pyramid pointing upside down. If you could see this pyramid, the giant base of the pyramid would be up in the higher spiritual planes, where souls go when they leave the earth plane. The tiny capstone of the pyramid is the section that resides within your body, in the heart. The capstone contains the spark of life, the energy which activates the soul and begins to pour all that is you, from the higher planes, down into your heart when you are born.

As you can imagine, this is a lot of energy and information, so the process slows as the size of the pyramid shape grows more narrow, until it reaches the tip inside of you. This capstone has a crystalline structure and captures all of the experiences in your life and returns this energy information back up to the higher planes and stores them in the akashic records. This is where the quote from one of my favorite authors, James Allen, comes from, where he says – “As A Man Thinketh in His Heart, So Shall He Be”.

Ok, so now we have an understanding of our soul as a container, which holds the essence of all of who we are and all we have ever been.

Now let’s look at the higher planes surrounding us. We are on the earth plane, where we are grounded through the lower chakras. We tend to think of the higher planes as places above us, way up in the sky, where people point to when they are speaking of Heaven. There are many levels to the higher planes, but let’s stick to the basics for this question. Some of the higher planes can be reached from various points of your body, including your heart, throat and third eye region, so the higher planes are closer and more accessible than most people realize. In the higher planes, the confining rules of the earth plane do not exist, including the limitations of time as we know it as well as the concept of being in one space at one time. The higher up one goes into the spiritual planes, the greater the ability is to be omni-present. This allows us basically, to be in several places at once.

As we take this big picture look at the soul, we see that the majority of the essence and energy of what makes us who we are, resides in the higher planes and that a small portion of our soul, trickles down into the body, which reincarnates from lifetime to lifetime. The larger part of ourselves, up in the higher planes has a greater consciousness and awareness and is the sum of all of our parts, all of our lifetimes and experiences.

When we reach out to speak to a loved one, who has passed on, we connect with this part of their essence, what we would refer to as the Higher Self. The Higher Self retains memory of all lifetimes including the one that we are reaching out to connect to them. The Higher Self, not bound by the restrictions of time and space on the earth plane, can continue to communicate with us with these memories and connections of one lifetime, while also having the freedom to incorporate another portion of the self, into a new body to gain new experiences at the same time.

An example of this situation was portrayed in the movie, What Dreams May Come, as the character played by Robin Williams travels to the other planes and meets his children, but finds that being his child was just one tiny portion of who they are.

The journey and experience of each us on the soul level, is the topic of my book, 9 Life Altering Lessons: Secrets of the Mystery Schools Unveiled, where I state: ‘We are Greater Than We Remember Ourselves To Be’.

Tammy, I hope this answers your question. Thanks for writing in to the Ask Kala column. Wishing you the best in all things!

The experience of seeing auras is a complex subject to unravel. I’ve seen auras around people since I was a child. It never occurred to me that others did not see auras as well. For example, when you walk outside and it’s a sunny day and the light is so bright that it makes you squint, do you run to other people and ask, “Do you see the light outside, does it make you close your eyes a little, is the light yellow in color to you”? You don’t ask these questions, you just assume that what you experience is what others are also experiencing.

My first inkling that I was seeing something different occurred in elementary school. We had been assigned to draw a picture of our home and family. While coloring each family member, I colored outside the lines portraying the colors I saw around each person. I also colored around the tree I had drawn, as I see the auras of plants and trees. When my picture was critiqued, I was told that I had not done a good job since I had colored outside of the lines. As an empath, I picked up that the teacher was very displeased with my work, but I could not understand why. That brief conversation opened the door to my eventual understanding that others did not see colors around other people the way that I did. This was the beginning of my journey to read auras and determine what the colors and images that I saw in the auras meant.

While it is fairly easy to learn to see an aura, understanding what the colors and images surrounding the aura represent, is something entirely different all together. To discern what the colors and shapes mean around a person at a particular time requires intuition, practice and an understanding of the spiritual planes and fields around the body.

During the last year of his life, Edgar Cayce began work with his friend Thomas Sugrue to write a book about his work with auras. This book was intended to reveal a full discourse on auras and colors, including Cayce’s notes on how he learned via observation with his clients, the meanings of specific colors and shapes in the aura. Unfortunately, his health took a turn for the worse and he died early that year in 1945.

Due to Cayce’s untimely demise, the compilation of his work and study of the auras was complied into a twenty-page pamphlet entitled Auras: An Essay on the Meaning of Colors. To this day, Auras is a popular reference guide containing helpful information including how the colors in the aura are connected with the planets and musical notes. This pamphlet is still available for sale through the A.R.E. catalog online.

From my experience in reading auras over the years, I’ve found that they are almost as unique as fingerprints. While some characteristics are similar in form including swirls and shades of color, each individual creates a distinctive pattern, which appears in their auric field. This field is comprised by the individual’s thoughts and emotions, as well as manifestations of energy coming into the body and thought forms, which have been around the person for some time.

People, who are able to view auras, see and sense them at different levels. Some are more attuned to see physical dis-ease before it enters the physical body. They may also see emotional distress in the auric field, or glimpses of the akashic records being worked through in this lifetime or they may just see the energy in motion around the person, which reflects their general wellbeing.

In my work as an esoteric wisdom teacher, I teach students how to read auras. We discuss the types of auras, their condition and how to heal an aura that has become damaged due to shock, stress or other harmful situations. I continue to experience new revelations when seeing auras and giving aura readings for people.

In the past ten years, I’ve seen new structures around the auras, that I do not recall having seen before. My theory on this new design in the auric field is that we are evolving at a fast pace and our energy bodies are being attuned right before our very eyes. It is happening so rapidly that the energy bodies around us are being reconstructed and are opening up to allow more light and energy to flow through our bodies now, more than ever before.

In the past four years, I have seen this gain even greater momentum, and the structures, which surround the auric field and energy bodies appear different in people according to their age and state of well-being. What I have seen forming in all stages of life is overwhelmingly positive and awe inspiring, so much so that I am now teaching a new workshop on auras at the Omega Institute in New York this summer, to explain how they are leading the evolution of our light bodies.

Auras, like so many natural gifts given to us, are powerful conductors of energy. Used consciously and with an understanding of their ability to be a pure vessel to hold the light, we can transform ourselves body, mind and spirit. In many ways they represent the symbolic sarcophagus, allowing us the opportunity and sacred space in which to regenerate, transmute and transform.
