The Human Aura and the Significance of Color

by W. J. Colville

About this book

W. J. Colville presents three lectures on auras, colour symbolism and the relationship he proposes between thought and personal influence. He begins by distinguishing the aura from personal magnetism, then develops his interpretations of colours, telepathy and mental suggestion. The lectures draw on the language of Theosophy, New Thought and spiritual healing current at the beginning of the twentieth century.

The second lecture concentrates on particular colours and their symbolic associations. The third discusses what Colville takes to be indications of character and health, extending his ideas to buildings and surroundings. This original 1909 edition preserves the complete lectures and the publisher’s accompanying material.
