Auras

Yesterday, for the first time ever I actually noticed auras. This has never happened for me before so it's kind of a big leap in my spiritual studies, really. Well, I really felt the auras more then noticed them but after looking it up, I read that both work. One person that I was around had a sort of dark aura around them. Almost like their vengeful in a way. But the other person had more of the colors blues and greens which were calming. (I'm keeping all names out for privacy reasons) the third person's aura was just bursting with all kinds of colors. In a happy, energetic, cheerful type of way. When I felt the dark aura, I put up a light of protection around me and the other two people. And I noticed that after I done so the person with the dark aura actually asked me if I was okay. Like she knew I had done something but didn't know what it was. From now on, I now know to put up this protection when being around this person, it leaves me feeling not so drained or unhappy. I found the source of the negative energy and like I said. That is a big step in my spiritual path because up until now I've only meditated and worked with runes and tarot\oracle decks,etc but now I am working with energy since my experience with that energy exercise, from my previous post, and its opening my eyes alot more now. Which is great. I now want to start researching auras and energy work :)

Let me know what your experience with auras are.
Blessed be
