I was talking about this before actually, My own opinion was that Magic-eye puzzles could help train one to see Auras, then when I went and done some research to see if I was onto something... well I found this

Look at this picture and relax your eyes. Try and see through the image. What can you see

The first time you master this, your brain learns how to read these images, and stores that process away for future reference. Over time, the more you practice with different images, the easier it becomes to view them. You may sometimes notice, if you are for example in an elevator, which has a particularly interesting pattern on the wall, that your brain starts to examine it as if it were a magic eye puzzle. Your brain has learned something new and it wants to apply what it has learned at every available opportunity. The magic eye puzzle is an emergent property of the age of technology. That is, it is something that came about that no one could have foreseen. Magic Eye puzzles were invented by Tom Baccei in 1990. He wrote a C program on a computer that produced random dot stereogram images, and shortly after, an image started cropping up in office fax machines and copiers with his phone number on it. Many of you may remember seeing that. This elegant marketing technique caused the rapid growth of N. E. Thing Enterprises, which became Magic Eye Inc. and these puzzles are now printed in syndication around the world. Most Sunday papers carry them. Many people who buy these papers try the puzzles. More and more people are learning how to read magic eye puzzles, and this may lead to a ‘critical mass’ with emergent properties all of its own. One such property may be our increased ability to see auras.
What do Magic Eye Puzzles have to do with Auras?
With many things in metaphysics, in order to tap into an ability, you need to do the reverse of what you are used to doing. To listen to God, you have to hear less. To bring what you want to you, you have to stop wanting it, because when you want something, you create the reality of wanting, which implies not currently having. To see auras, most people have to stop looking so hard for them.
I say most people because there are some few people who see them all the time, with no spiritual training. On rare occasions, this is from birth, but more frequently, this is the result of some severe brain trauma, like a car accident or excessive abuse of drugs and/or alcohol. Something changes in the brain chemistry so that the aura is no longer filtered out.
When you view a magic eye puzzle, you relax your eyes and defocus them. You get a reward from this, namely, being able to see the hidden picture. This is why the puzzle is so useful for people learning to see auras. The brain now understands that sometimes when it defocuses the eyes it can expect to see something, and so removes some of the filters that prevent us from normally seeing auras.
What are Auras?
Everything in the Universe vibrates. Some things vibrate faster than others. The vibrations occur at a fundamental level, within the atoms themselves. This vibration releases energy in various forms. Common forms of this release include heat and light. The faster something vibrates, the more heat it gives off. At Absolute Zero, -273.15 degrees Centigrade, nothing vibrates – nothing exists. Generally speaking, the hotter something is, the more light it gives off. Turn on an electric stove in the dark and place the rings at different temperatures to view this effect.
Humans are constructed (at least in part) of electromagnetic radiation. This radiation can be measured. The frequency range that we are able to measure around the human body seems to expand up to the Ultra Violet portion of the Spectrum. The lower frequency vibrations (Infra Red region) seem to be related to our internal operating system – DNA, metabolism, circulation etc, whereas the higher frequencies seem to be more concerned with the programs we are running (Emotions, thoughts, creativity etc.)
The pattern runs something like this:
DNA - Cellular - Organs – Emotions - Mind - Spirit
What do Auras look like? http://www.pagannews.com/images/kirlian.jpg
What you are looking at is a composite image created via a technique called Kirlian photography. It is the closest we have so far been able to get to photographing the human aura. Although we can measure the energy and vibration of an aura, we have not yet invented a means to photograph in true color beyond the visible spectrum. The image you are seeing may well reflect the energy output of the individual, but it certainly does not reflect the true colors seen by those who have the ability to see auras.
Auras vary in appearance depending on what you’re looking at. All objects have auras, but inanimate objects, it has been demonstrated, change their auras less than 2%, and this change may be due to such factors as build up of micro-organisms or oxidization. Animals other than humans have auras that change dramatically throughout the visible spectrum, although there is less activity toward the blue end. Human auras also change dramatically, but can also be controlled, and have more activity towards the UV end of the spectrum. This is significant, and we will discuss why in later chapters. For now, suffice it to say that all living things have auras, and it is possible to train your eyes to see them. It is also possible to measure these auras, and some work has been done in this area to make use of the information the aura provides to us. Nikola Tesla discovered over 100 years ago that the body glowed under certain conditions, and since then many people have examined this phenomenon and added pieces to the puzzle. In 1911, Dr. William Kelner M.D. reported on his studies of the ‘Human Energy Field’ that he viewed through colored screens and filters. He described areas of glowing mist around the whole body in three layers. More substantial close to the body, more ethereal and indistinct farther out. He found that the aura changed depending on age, sex, physical and mental well being. Many people continued his research up to the present day. In the mid-eighties, Dr. Valerie Hunt at UCLA recorded the frequencies of low millivoltage signals from the body during a series of rolfing sessions. The recorded frequencies correlated to the colors and locations of the chakras observed by Rosalyn Bruyere, a healer from Glendale, California, whose observations were recorded at the same time. Finally, science catches up with what healers have seen and been doing for centuries, and begins to accept that there may be some truth in it.
How to see auras
1) Find a room that you can illuminate gently with a couple of candles or a low watt bulb.
2) Meditate for a while, to relax your mind and lower your brain wave patterns. This makes you more receptive and sensitive to everything around you.
3) Move you hands gently together until they are almost touching and then move them apart again. You may start to feel energy or resistance building up between them as you do this.
4) After a while you should start to see wisps of what appear to be an after image around your hands. Let your eyes relax as if you were viewing a magic eye puzzle.
5) You may start to see color within the haze. Move your hands slow and gently around one another. Let them nearly touch and pull away again gently. You may get the impression of smoke or mist dragging along your fingers.
6) Look around you; see if you can see auras on other objects in your surroundings. Experiment with this technique as often as you like, then repeat with a partner – see if they see the same as you.
What is happening here?
Just like the Magic Eye puzzle, you are teaching your brain to see things differently. After a time, you should find you are able to turn on and off the ability to see auras at will, even in brightly-lit surroundings. Like everything, however, this is something that takes patient and diligent practice and cannot be rushed.
Although there is a degree of subjectivity in how the aura appears to each individual, there does appear to be common themes, colors and regions that reflect certain properties of the individual's state of mind, mental and spiritual health, and physical well being.
If you have the ability to control your own aura, which can be done with practice, you can interface with the auras of other people. We experience this everyday. Sometimes we don’t want certain people around us – they just give us ‘the creeps’. Other people just make us feel better by walking into a room – even if we don’t know them. These experiences are part of the ability that we all have to heal ourselves – and others.

Ive always been able to see these puzzles but only in the last few years have I been able to see the auric energy band around people, cant see the bubble... yet
