Subtle Bodies Related to the Aura

There are seven subtle bodies, or layers, around the physical body, which create the auric body system (aura).
There are three physical plane bodies, three spiritual plane bodies and the astral body, which is the bridge between the lower and higher bodies
Ịt is said that the energies from the higher planes must pass through the "fire of the heart" - the heart chakra-- to reach and be of full use by the lower bodies.
Each level of the aura has its own seven chakras,

First Layer (The Etheric Body)
- one quarter to two inches beyond the physical body
- 15-20 cycles per minute.
- a bluish (emotional) or gray light (highly active).
Second Layer (The Emotional Body)
- about one to three inches from the physical body.
- like colored clouds that change color depending on what kind of emotions the person is going through.
-contains all the colors in the rainbow.
Third Layer (The Mental Body)
- three to eight inches from the body,
- generally has a yellow light, which radiates around the head and shoulders, and extends to the body below. Although the color associated with this body is yellow, other colors are evident if there is an emotion associated with the thought (stemming from the emotional body).
Fourth Layer (The Astral level)
- true bridge to the spiritual plane!
-six inches or one foot from the body
-perception and abilities leap from the physical to the subtle.
- clouds of color, a pink, or rose hue is often present
The astral plane is also called the "emotional" plane, which ties it strongly to the heart chakra and the second subtle body (the emotional body).
The Fifth Layer (The Etheric Template Body)
- a template for the lower template body that exists before the physical body is formed.
- extends one and one half to two feet from the body
- a dark blue hue to it.
The Sixth Layer (The Celestial Body)
-  spiritual emotional plane  associated with bliss, and spiritual ecstasy, divine love, interconnectedness
the colors are very soft in nature (pastel) and glow softly
The Seventh Layer (The Ketheric Template or Causal Body)
- mental level of the spiritual plane
-  extends up to three and a half feet from the body, often in the shape of an egg.
- gold, or silvery-gold, with a grid type structure, which is very durable.
 - It pulsates and vibrates at a very high speed
 - within this level; we "know" we are one with God.
 - contains the main Kundalini force that runs up and down the body.


There are other planes (such as the Cosmic plane) but they do not relate to the aura for they are beyond the aura and a different article entirely!
