A
Theosophical definition of Aura :
Aura
An extremely subtle and therefore invisible essence or fluid that emanates from and surrounds not only human beings and beasts, but as a matter of fact plants and minerals also. The aura is one of the aspects of the auric egg and therefore the human aura partakes of all the qualities that the human constitution contains. It is at once magneto-mental and electrovital, suffused with the energies of mind and spirit - the quality in each case coming from an organ or center of the human constitution whence it flows. The aura is the source of the sympathies and antipathies that we are conscious of.
Under the control of the human will the aura can be both life-giving and healing, or death-dealing; and when the human will is passive the aura has an action of its own which is automatic and follows the laws of character and latent impulses of the being from whom it emanates.
Sensitives have frequently described the aura in more or less vague terms as a light flowing from the eyes or the heart or the tips of the fingers or from other parts of the body. Sometimes this fluid, instead of being colorless light, manifests itself by flashing and scintillating changes of color - the color or colors in each case depending not only upon the varying moods of the human individual, but also possessing a background equivalent to the character or nature of the individual. Animals are extremely sensitive to auras, and some beasts even descry the human being surrounded with the aura as with a cloud or veil. In fact, everything has its aura surrounding it with a light or play of color, and especially is this the case with so-called animated beings.
The essential nature of the aura usually seen is astral and electrovital. The magnificent phenomena of radiation that astronomers can discern at times of eclipse, long streamers with rosy and other colored light flashing forth from the body of the sun, are not flames nor anything of the sort, but are simply the electrovital aura of the solar body - a manifestation of solar vitality, for the sun in occultism is a living being, as indeed everything else is.

THEOSOPHICAL TERMS".
Publisher's Note
"Every branch of
study has its own special terminology, and the esoteric philosophies are no
exception. This compendium not only clarifies the significance of the terms
most frequently found in such literature, but offers a comprehensive outline of
the scope and principles underlying an age-old tradition respecting the
constitution of man and the universe in which he lives.
This
Second and Revised Edition is faithful to the original 1933 edition. Changes
include modernizing capitalization, spelling, and punctuation, and amending a
few foreign terms (with appreciation to Dr. Bruce C. Hall and Mr. David Reigle
for their respective contributions)."
