Donna Wins Our Aura Reading Contest
April 1st, 2009 by Rose Rosetree
Meet Donna, winner of our Aura Reading Contest. (Her cute, edgy photo is to our left.) She gave a very thoughtful entry (Comment #10) and clearly had done an enthusiastic job of entering the contest, following the instructions beautifully.
Everyone who entered the Aura Reading Contest by March 31 – and included the required photo –will receive a Consolation Prize — a bit of Aura Reading that will be done in a later blog post.
It took a lot of courage for all you who entered, being willing to do such a personal kind of reading online. I especially give a shout-out to our winner Donna, because she revealed so much about her strengths, dreams, and problems in her entry.
And all of us get to win, even those who never entered the Contest, because this is a rare chance to experience an in-depth Aura Reading.
For Donna’s Aura Reading, I will alternate quotes from her entry with comments about her original questions and how I have worked with them a bit to help her get the best results.
Donna’s Aura Reading, List A, will emerge as the main part of today’s colorful, educational post.
The Winner’s Entry
Of the many types of Aura Reading I offer, the prize for this contest was a “Thrill Your Soul” Aura Reading. First step is to set an overall intention, and Donna’s choice for this was very clear:
Researching what type of career would be best for me.
Next, “Thrill Your Soul” Aura Readings include two different lists.
List A is about aspects of your life corresponding to different parts of your aura. This helps to focus the kind of help you receive from your Aura Reading.
I adapted Donna’s List A because it was all in terms of improving herself. Instead I found relevant, interesting databanks related to the life areas she mentioned.
Donna and other Blog-Buddies, this is something to think about as you delve more deeply into Aura Reading. As an aura reader, you are not necessarily in the business of giving advice. Sometimes it can be more useful to observe without telling how to fix. Validating a person’s gifts of the soul can be powerful, healing, and just plain helpful.
If we had been in session, Donna, we would have discussed your ideas to come up with this list of chakra databanks to research. Since this is a written version of a Thrill Your Soul reading, I just winged it. Here is Donna’s List A — and how I chose it.
The Chakra Databank Research List
1. Aura Reading Databank at the Root Chakra: Mind-Body Connection to External Reality
Donna, this impacts your physical energy. How well any databank is doing, such as how much energy you feel physically, relates to a number of factors.
As a practical matter, any time that your energy is down, get a checkup. Consider practical lifestyle factors, such as what you are eating, whether you’re getting enough sleep, etc.
When we do our research of List B, we’ll find out in detail which choices energize you and which don’t.
2. Aura Reading Databank at the Belly Chakra: Sex Drive
Donna, you asked about concentration. As I began to sort through your very individual aura, I was struck by what was going on here, in the sex drive aspect of you. I think this has a lot to do with what you called “concentration.”
3. Aura Reading Databank at the Heart Chakra: Awareness of Your Own Emotions
4. Aura Reading Databank at the Heart Chakra: Awareness of Other People’s Emotions
Yes, Donna, here you had asked about “empathy.” But as I researched what was really going on in your particular aura, it seemed to me the best way to approach this question was to sort out these two very different heart chakra databanks. More fun to come!
Incidentally, you also asked about clairaudience and “telling your thoughts apart from other people’s thoughts.” I don’t find a particular databank that relates to this so much as some simple advice. The first thing I noticed about your aura was the possibility that, near the time of this photo, you may have dabbled just a little bit in pot or other recreational chemicals. Another possibility is that you are still processing chemical experiments from earlier in your past. Either way, it seems to me that this chemical distortion may still be affecting you.
For any of you Blog-Buddies who have experimented in this particular way, the high isn’t worth it. I know that millions upon millions of Americans love smoking pot and think it’s probably healthier than smoking cigarettes. My perspective is just that of Aura Reading: You’ll pay for every bit of chemically induced expansion to your aura by carrying STUFF in your aura. And this STUFF may hang around for a long time. (See my post earlier this year with an Aura Reading perspective on marijuana.)
One effect of drug experimentation is to weaken the personal thought process. What will strengthen it again, apart from no more pot? Assume that every thought you have is your own. That’s a much safer choice for personal evolution.
As for clairaudience, much confusion surrounds this term (as with so much about Aura Reading right now). Donna, it seems to me that you were asking more about telepathy, which involves moving in and out of other people’s minds.
Clairaudience is a gift for Deeper Perception of many kinds, including Aura Reading and doing Empath Merges. It means hearing the truth. So clairaudient perception might come to you in words that you hear inside. Other experiences of clauraudience include moving into Deeper Perception just by listening to someone else’s voice. In “Empowered by Empathy,” I teach a technique to turn all your gifts on powerfully, jump-started with clairaudence, by listening (safely) to another person’s heart.
Back to you, Donna, next you brought up this:
Power of speech (sometimes I say something & it comes true-not good when I rant when I’m mad). I don’t want to be afraid to say something (I stutter)
Much of this would be appropriate for a session of Aura Healing or Energy Release Regression Therapy, not Aura Research — and some time I would love to help you with these issues. Meanwhile, for the practical purposes of this Aura Reading, I’ve chosen these extra databanks:
5. Aura Reading Databank at the Throat Chakra: Communication in Close Relationships
6. Aura Reading Databank at the Solar Plexus Chakra: Dealing with Anger
Next, Donna, given your intention for this Thrill Your Soul Reading, we need to add a couple of databanks about career, right?
7. Aura Reading Databank at the Root Chakra: Ability to Earn Money
8. Aura Reading Databank at the Root Chakra: Commanding Respect from Others
9. Aura Reading Databank at the Solar Plexus Chakra: Staying Interested in Your Job
Then, just to round out our set — and I do hope you’re having fun here, all Blog-Buddies, and Donna especially:
10. Aura Reading Databank at the High Heart Chakra: Expressing Your Soul
Donna’s Baseline Reading
Now that we have our List A, let’s read how you are doing right now, at the time of this photo. Then tomorrow, we will research with your List B, seeing how your choices change your aura.
1. Aura Reading Databank at the Root Chakra: Mind-Body Connection to External Reality
- Lifelong gift of your soul: Very aware of objective reality, your perceptions are very down to earth, so you are really good at noticing what will help you to survive and thrive.
- How you’re doing now: Bitterness, resentment, and powerlessness are major themes. Altogether, you are dealing with a great deal of STUFF that causes you to wish to withdraw from life. You know, Donna, if you could just say, “Go away” to objective reality right now, this part of your aura suggests that you would do it in a heartbeat. But please know that STUFF in an aura can always, always, always be healed.
2. Aura Reading Databank at the Belly Chakra: Sex Drive
Specifically, you’re wired to have sex be an important source for rebalancing for you in life, regardless of whatever else is going on for you. Part of your gift for sex drive is that, if you’re going through some depression or frustration otherwise in life, you’ll become extra-interested in sex. (Often people have just the opposite happen.)It’s as though your life is mainly ”about” these two themes right now. It’s as if they are the main meal, and everything else seems like ketchup. Of course, this would impact your ability to concentrate on other things.
3. Aura Reading Databank at the Heart Chakra: Awareness of Your Own Emotions
It feels as though, “I will never get out of this.” Your usual clarity is gone, and if you weren’t so strong, you might feel as if you had to give up on ever being really happy. But of course you can be happy, and STUFF can always be healed.
Another component to the probem here, Donna, is that you aren’t doing enough in external life to keep you interested. Being so bored, awareness of your emotions turns inward toward old problems. This is why it is so useful to research Thrill Your Soul items from your List B. We’ll get there tomorrow. 
4. Aura Reading Databank at the Heart Chakra: Awareness of Other People’s Emotions
One gift you have as an empath also shows in this part of your aura: Emotional Intuition. An empath has at least one significant, trainable gift for directly experiencing what it is like to be other people. Here I want to define this particular gift. You are able to know what people experience emotionally. This is knowing at a distance, as in being able to tell if your friend “Pat” is happy, sad, scared, etc.
It’s important to distinguish this from Emotional Oneness. If you had this different gift as an empath, your own moods, such as happy, sad, scared, etc., could randomly be coming from people like Pat.
I do NOT find this gift in your aura. Therefore, if you have been telling yourself that your moods come from other people, this would be more a matter of what psychologists call “projection.”
Similarly, what you referred to in your contest entry as “clairaudience” and picking up on other people’s thoughts — I suspect this is more about Donna’s subconscious mind, and what you’re picking up from there. (With the gift of clairaudience, as I’ve defined it elsewhere in this post, still a distinct possibility for you.)
Not to worry, you’re still way talented with emotions. That Emotional Intuition is a precious gift, and very worth training.
That’s okay, Donna. Your perception is true. You aren’t that interested, now, in general. You’re carrying old resentments, angers, disgust, feeling wounded by others, etc. STUFF! Again, think “Cut cords of attachment” and, whatever else you think, know that STUFF can be healed. When it is, your natural curiosity and helpfulness will come bouncing right back.
5. Aura Reading Databank at the Throat Chakra: Communication in Close Relationships
Whew! With this we will be halfway through your List A. And this is only your baseline reading. You can see why usually I do these over the phone. It’s a lot to read, not so much to listen to, especially when you can ask questions as we go.
One way to break that cycle is to go for Aura Healing. But another is to develop new interests and friends that would have impact on this part of your aura. This, of course, is what we will be researching with List B, and our second part of your Thrill Your Soul reading.
6. Aura Reading Databank at the Solar Plexus Chakra: Dealing with Anger
7. Aura Reading Databank at the Root Chakra: Ability to Earn Money
8. Aura Reading Databank at the Root Chakra: Commanding Respect from Others
9. Aura Reading Databank at the Solar Plexus Chakra: Staying Interested in Your Job
)Much of your discontent has to do with STUFF, but some can simply result from past choices that you’ve been stuck with in, choices that don’t thrill your soul. So isn’t it a wonderful coincidence that this part of the Aura Reading is just your baseline, and we’re about to do research?
10. Aura Reading Databank at the High Heart Chakra: Expressing Your Soul
Now hear this, Donna and other Blog-Buddies. Nobody, and I mean nobody, on earth has the power to squish your soul. That expression of who you are, your zest for life, your making every day count and having fun as you’re counting — all that is up to you.
But most people, 299 out of 300, don’t make choices that include what your human soul really wants. So, in this way, Donna, you start off with the majority. Your advantage is that you’re on your way to researching a bunch of possibilities to find out, in depth and detail, what really does thrill your soul.
Tomorrow it’s onto List B. For today, congratulations on all those magnificent gifts of your soul that you’ll have throughout this lifetime, Donna, no matter what.

You may know that low-cost Aura Reading Reports are available from me, as well as Relationship Reports, Personnel Profiles, and Face Reading Reports. They make great gifts!
But many of you don’t know about the Aura Reading Research Sessions, in person or (usually) by phone. In them, I can read any databank in any chakra of any person you have ever known… and at any time you have known that person. The same goes for reading YOU. No photo is needed, just your voice on the phone, asking your questions.Types of Aura Reading offered here in Sterling, Virginia (just in case you do choose to come in person to this part of metro D.C.) include these specialties:
-
A “Thrill Your Soul” Aura Reading, like the one here.
- Insights into gifts in your chakras
- An Aura Reading that emphasizes Aura Healing and Transformation by Cutting Cords of Attachment
-
An Aura Reading that emphasizes Aura Healing and Transformation by clearing Astral Debris like Psychic Coercion.
The ultimate consumer strategy is to learn to do your own Aura Readings. I’ve taught thousands of people to become really good aura readers, and would love to teach you.
My basic Aura Reading how-to has sold over 100,000 copies worldwide. It’s perfect for an in-depth course for a complete beginner. Yet the 100+ techniques are also useful for bringing you from intermediate skills at Aura Reading to a professional level.
“Aura Reading Through All Your Senses” is the name of that book. It is easy to order, whether by clicking on this link or calling our toll-free number, for U.S. and Canada, available 24/7. The number is 800-345-6665.
Yes, my trademarked system is called Aura Reading Through All Your Senses(R).
One useful, and distinctive, skill set that I teach can help you learn to do is …. Aura Reading from regular photographs.
This, of course, is what I will do for the Aura Reading Contest winner. Click here for information about the first how-to book to introduce this kind of Aura Reading technique, “Read People Deeper.” It’s easy to order, whether by clicking on this link or calling our toll-free number, for U.S. and Canada, available 24/7: 800-345-6665.
If you think that most people can’t yet gain accurate, in-depth Aura Reading insights from a photo, you’re right. You might well become the first person in your circle of friends to do this kind of Aura Reading. And the wild part is that this isn’t terribly difficult. You just need to learn the Aura Reading techniques that will get you there.
Discouraged or skeptical about your ability to do Aura Reading? You don’t have to “see the colours.” Just find a teacher who knows how to help you to find your innate gifts and then use them to give you quality results. Not that different from a regular reading teacher, except it’s an Aura Reading teacher.
For personal mentoring, helping you to develop extra-fast at doing Aura Reading yourself, click here.
Another way to get experience of Aura Reading databanks from the inside, as if the data were part of YOU, is to do a skilled Empath Merge. Develop skills as an empath with this simple, inexpensive tutoring session between pages, Empowered by Empathy.
In America or Canada, you can order it 24/7 with a toll-free number: 800-345-6665. Or use this magic empath button to order online. (Just teasing about that name. It’s regular old ordering, with money, that helps to keep me blogging and, otherwise, doing this wonderful work.)
If you prefer audiobooks, you’re in luck with the audio edition of Empowered by Empathy. And you can hear a free sample by scrolling down the page to which this link takes you.
Sometimes an aura reader or empath-in-training will prefer personal mentoring. This can be done over the phone or in person. Empath Empowerment is a skill set, not just a wish. It takes some learning, and the great thing about study of this kind is that you go one session at a time. One session might do it for you, or maybe you might need several, but either way you will only commit to the time and cost that is appropriate for you. In 2009, these Personal Mentoring Sessions are still $125 for 55 minutes. To set one in motion, start by ordering a personal session here.
For the ultimate supply of free Aura Readings, learn how to do it yourself. This Aura Reading Youtube Video might inspire you.

Great reading, Rose! Congratulations, Donna! I can’t wait to read Part B.
Hi Rose,
I enjoyed reading this very much and am looking forward to tomorrow’s post. I am new to learning about auras and chakras, so taking in the information/understanding about all of this is new for me, like learning a new language.
A few questions… Is the term “databank” your own creation or is that the common name that other aura readers might use?
Does your book, “Empowered by Empathy”, have all the names of the databanks for each chakra?
If I understand correctly, there are 50 per chakra, so that is a lot!!??
Just trying to wrap my head around all the different information… I have to remind myself to be patient with myself and my current level of understanding… Thanks!
Thank you Anita
And thank you Rose! The reading has been encouraging so far…my boyfriend said it was dead-on.
I can’t wait for part B either.
Yay!
DONNA so glad you like it. That’s most important to me.
And so your lucky boyfriend has been checking out your Aura Reading, too? Sweet!
LISA, you asked some excellent questions. I get so used to the techniques and systems that I’ve developed that I sometimes forget to give context. Let’s do one question and answer per comment here.
Q. Is the term “databank” your own creation or is that the common name that other aura readers might use?
A. Yes, I have trademarked the system called Aura Reading Through All Your Senses(R) because it is different in many ways from other approaches to Aura Reading.
As part of that system, I discovered the concept of chakra databanks.
Somehow, I have been positioned in the field of Deeper Perception as someone who creates new systems. So I also have trademarks for:
12 Steps to Cut Cords of Attachment(R)
Face Reading Secrets (R)
and Empath Empowerment (TM).
LISA, continuing the Q&A:
Q. If I understand correctly, there are 50 [databanks] per chakra, so that is a lot!!??
A. Yes, the concept of Chakra Databanks has been very helpful for doing Aura Reading Research and Aura Healing, too. There are a lot of these databanks, but the concept would be important even if there only were one Chakra Databank per person.
Let me back up a bit and explain.
Most people who study Aura Reading know that there are parts of an aura corresponding to parts of the physical body, chakras. And chakras are important because they contain so much information in a very concentrated way.
My discovery around Chakra Databanks came up several years ago. To me, a “databank” of information is a combination of two types of information. There is a gift of the soul, permanent as a fingerprint. STUFF can also show in a databank — stored-up problems, energy flows, distortions on a physical level.
Lisa, that discovery is useful for many reasons. It means that everyone’s aura is special and luscious and meaningful. If you surf the Net, you won’t really find much acknowledgement of individuality and uniqueness.
Also, if you want to do healing, or receive healing, as you develop skill it makes a huge difference to use the knowledge of Chakra Databanks. Why? You can turn to the Chakra Databank where specific problems are.
What would be different? For years, I did Transcendental Meditation for hours each day, the flying technique (TM Sidhis) etc.
The biggest motivation was Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s promise that all this deep inner work would dissolve “stress.” My concept of STUFF is similar.
But there’s a problem with aiming to simply dissolve stress. There can be so much of it.
Back then, I had no choice but to passively wait that all the stress would leave me. Sometimes I would hope that my life would improve in ways that I needed, that the stresses that got in my way the most would be the next to go. But this wasn’t happening.
No wonder, one of the first things I ask in sessions now (like those you have had with me) is:
“What is your intention?” That implies, “If you are in this session for healing, which types of STUFF from your Aura Reading Databanks do you want to move out?”
Continuing, LISA and all interested Blog-Buddies, yes, each person has about 50 Chakra Databanks in the main chakras at any given time.
Sub-chakras, like those in hands and feet, also have a lot of Databanks.
The art of choosing Databanks is part of the skill of Aura Reading. I hope nobody thinks the way to start out, or to improve your existing skills, is to get the list of Chakra Databanks and go right through them.
Instead, I recommend going through “Aura Reading Through All Your Senses,” one little chapter at a time. It combines a carefully designed sequence of easy steps, different techniques and understandings.
This book can give even an experienced aura reader a stronger foundation, one that combines skills with a healthy respect for your own brilliance and uniqueness as an aura reader.
Okay, LISA and Blog-Buddies, one last part of this Q&A:
Q. Does your book, “Empowered by Empathy,” have all the names of the databanks for each chakra?
A. Actually, the book that goes into many (not all, but loads of) Chakra Databanks is “Read People Deeper.” By the time you have mastered the material in that book, you will know more about aura reading, face reading, and body language than many professionals in these three fields.
By contrast, “Empowered by Empathy” is the first book written for empaths. The purpose is to bring you from being talented but unskilled to fully skilled.
If you had to choose between developing your Aura Reading abilities and becoming a Skilled Empath, the better choice the latter. Unskilled empaths suffer more than they know, yet every empath has the ability to become skilled — for greater inner stability, way more knowledge, and more loving, effective service to humanity.
Again, LISA, thank you for your latest questions.
Hi Rose, WOW. Your responses were wonderfully clarifying. : )
