Red dirt...

[witchscauldron]

I keep having star spattered dreams...drifty. Very strange. I have a strong craving for red earth between my toes. There be a plot going about to get my butt to SEHowl...mrrr. More on that later.

Here goes the next batch of .

barkman:
Yeah, I said I'd do one, so here it is. I could have just told you, since we live together and all, but I'm posting it instead. You had a very strange pattern going. The basic pattern was like static, or noise, and then moving through it were all of these overlapping circles, like lens flares without the bright flare to them. Weird. I was picking up a lot of grey, red and green in random proportions.
Grey is very neutral..doesn't indicate a lot of anything. It could have been because you were getting ready to sleep. Red is energy and passion, and the darker greens are uncertainty. It was almost as if you were running through things in your mind; seeing how they all overlapped and interlocked, combined with a whole lot of static about the unknown future. *kiss* Don't worry so much.

celticphooka:
Your aura was like a carnelian, almost - that mixed orange-red, fairly dark and solid. It swirled, sluggishly, like the colour was moving through something viscous. Very neat effect. Maybe you feel like you're wading through mud right now, or the world is to moving fast enough for you - you're stuck. Red again is all energy and passion, darker shades impatience and nervous tendencies. Orange represents creativity. When it's so dark, though, it can also represent pride, or vanity. Are you worried what others will think about you?

wolfmagex:
EYES. Wow. I got a glimpse of a bright green, some blue, an aura that was crackly and electric...and then it quickly got covered and overshadowed by a very large, and distinctly different aura - red and white, clouding with black. It was very protective, didn't want me there at all, and definetely felt dragon. And eyes...a pair of eyes, glowing...glaring at me for daring to try. :p

metachaos:
Sparrrklies! Hehe. Mmr. Can't catch them, tho. :( It was all streaky and swirly...the colours flowed into one another and changed constantly. I caught glimpses of purple, green, blue, and orange before it became too much and I withdrew. There were little blips of light fluttering about too, like fireflies - brief in duration. I didn't get the same sense of vast size I do with most dragons...is your inner dragon smaller somehow? I don't know.
Purple and blue are closely related - calm, peace, finding a purpose or meaningful work in life and enjoying it. Green is healing and related to the heart chakra...and orange is creativity. I'd say that life isn't disappointing you too much right now...you have satisfying work, creative output, and someone(s) who love you and you love back.

cypherwulf:
There's definetely some dragon hangin' around ya. A sense of size...not huge like some, but size. Your aura was..buzzy..as if it was a pager someone had set it to vibrate. Dancing molecules sort of feel, and pulled in very close to your body. Are you feeling the need to be out of sight for a while? It was a dark green, and yellow...I kept thinking "John Deere coloured dragonwolf hehehe". The green says to me something about uncertainty - and it doesn't feel new. The yellow I think is representative of your survival instinct - you take care of yourself. But I also picked up a little hint of shyness from somewhere.

Lonewylfe:
Your aura was a gossamer pink and orange...very sunset-like. Pretty, and soft! Mmmr. :) Pink is a very pure love colour, like love between friends, soulmates, romantic love. It also indicates compassion. Orange is creativity, thoughtfulness, and warmth. I'd hazard a guess this is pretty close to a "base" colour for your aura, meaning this is where it would tend to gravitate to without sudden changes of emotion or mood - it sounds just perfect for you, to me. :)

kodekitten:
Well, I tried to go more in-depth, like you asked. I didn't get much more than I did last time, though. It's hard to do more than a surface reading on someone from a distance, unless the issue is very very very strongly expressed and close in mind still. I would have to be with you in person to get a better reading. Sorry! However, I still see red and purple - but it's more garnet like now, and brighter than the other reading. I think you're digging your way through whatever's eating you - tenacious wolf, you. ;) You also had these...orbs, intensly garnet, very dense-feeling, swinging around your head. Don't wear yourself out constantly trying to look for answers upstairs. They won't all be within your own mind.

ryath:
Hey hun...long time no see. :) Hope the crows are still keeping you company. I tried to get in to do a reading, but all I got was the image of a muddy yellow wolf's head, no eyes, just a shape, hovering very protectively overtop of you. Anytime I tried to move past it it pushed me off. The yellow colour could mean you or your wolf is shy...or that it's very very protective of you. Try to open up a little to people - not all of them suck and are going to hurt you.

pyat:
Yeah, I know, you don't believe in this stuff, and you certainly didn't ask me to do this. I was curious. I got a mix of colours, grey, brown, gold, and orange...randomly distributed. I also, though, had the sense that you were wearing layers - sort of like a raccoon's tail, but more like a kid in a snowsuit. The one closest to you is orange and yellow - not surprising to me, since you're a writer and a gamer. Creativity, intelligence and mental activity, opportunities for learning...they all seem like they appeal to you highly. The "layer" on top of that was brown, and grey, less of the yellow and orange. Brown is about grounding, feeling like you're living in the real world, and not out-of-touch with reality. Grey is neutrality - it's the auric equivalent of television static. Just blank..almost skeptical. And the outermost "layer" was almost entirely grey.

I understand entirely if you think this is a load of hooey - your aura says that to me. There's the need to imagine, to create, to roleplay and to enjoy that...and there's the need to seem as if you're not strange because of that. A lot of people misunderstand roleplayers, and people who create the games they enjoy. I think you want to believe in magic in the real world...just a bit. Even if it is only the magic of your imagination, or a well-costumed LARP player. It's a tough balance to walk, between skeptical reality, and the beauty of the things we're capable of creating with our minds.


Ok, all done. :) I'm off again...maybe go for another walka in the big park today, because it's super nice outside. :)

Oh, and anyone know how to get a staff on an airplane without the folks in cargo mangling it?

Try putting it in a golf bag.

You're right, I don't believe. :-) But I appreciate the kind sentiment, and the fact that you'd spare me a thought.

I don't think there's anything in that reading that isn't readily apparent from a quick reading of my Livejournal. However, it still serves as a indication of how other people see me, which is always interesting. :-)

[morgandria.livejournal.com]

It's a catch-22...your aura is supposed to reflect you on the personal level. And your personal level is your aura..so know one, know the other. *shrugs* I've never read your journal, not that I think you'll believe that. All I have read is the individual post you made about my journal there, and I know you write RPGs because of talking to and reading Redstorm's LJ.

Glad I'm interesting, at least. :)
-M.

[pyat.livejournal.com]

Oh, I believe you if you say you haven't. But there's a lot that can be read from a picture, some basic knowledge, and a post. What you have posted is essentially a first impression, with various characteristics tied to colours.

Let me close my eyes, and attempt to discern your aura…


Your aura, like mine, is multi-layered.

At the outside blue, ranging from the palest of winter skies, to the dark velvet almost-violet of late evening as it approaches your inner self. This, I feel, represents the powerful sensitivity you have to natural world, as well as your connection to unconventional wisdom. The blue tinges to yellow at the edges – like a summer sunset- this is the friendliness and creativity that the world sees. It represents your free-wheeling and creative side – you have a playful nature, and this is infectious to those who deal with you for any amount of time. There is a sensuality there as well, an easy voluptuousness.

You are artistic, creative, and mystical – yet with a solid grounding. You are open to ideas that most people would dismiss, but do not let them take you too far from reality. The Wolf has taught you that wisdom is nothing without a practical connection to blood and bone. This trait may turn some people off - they think you're TOO forthright and honest.

Whatcha think?

[morgandria.livejournal.com]

It's great writing. :) But not my aura. My aura is shaded, not layered, and has a feeling like feathers brushed across skin...probably from the wings. It does start with blue, but it's very deep, sliding into indigo, and then violet, and then red closest to my skin. It used to be mostly blue, but I'm changing, as everyone does.

As for the rest - well, you're a good judge of character. :)

[pyat.livejournal.com]

Leave aside the “physical” appearance of the aura for a moment. Obviously, I didn’t actually attempt to see your aura – I was just being dramatic and annoying. Everything I know about auras is contained in the 1984 Pulp Mystery RPG Justice Inc. under the heading “Physic Talents.” I have no real idea what they’re supposed to look like, and took my own reading as a model.

Still, I got several colours “right” – and consider the character traits I ascribed to you.

- Sensitivity to the natural world.
- Connection to unconventional wisdom.
- Freewheeling, creative, playful.
- Sensualist.
- Mystical.
- Practical.
- Honest, sometimes to a fault.

How many are inaccurate? I’m sure some must be, though you admitted I was a “good judge of character.” If I can achieve a mostly correct result of the top of my head based on a first impression, then how much more accurate a result will someone achieve with people they know quite well?

Frankly, the aura you described for me is not particularly accurate, at least not in terms of how I view myself. However, it DOES describe the way people often view me through my online LJ persona – particularly when I’ve been ranting about something. In real life, people usually describe me as “jovial,” “easy-going,” and “Shut up with the puns already, Wisenheimer.” That suggests, I dunno, yellow or something. Maybe a loud and unattractive checkered pattern.

The basic principle of clear thinking must apply. We should not increase, beyond what is necessary, the number of entities required to explain anything. Either you have the ability to remotely view what most psychics describe as a field of real electrical energy around my body through the Internet, or you’re drawing conclusions based on accessible personality cues, and attributing this ability to an extraordinary special power. The first option requires a mystical worldview and the suspension of the laws of physics – the second requires only a working knowledge of the psychology of the individual, something that everyone has to a greater or lesser extent.

It’s a shame I’m not going to C-ACE this year. You could give me another reading in person. :0)

Out of curiosity, have you ever had your aura read by someone who didn’t know you at all? Did they also pick up on the “feathered” image without being told about your connection to The Raven?

[morgandria.livejournal.com]

*nods* I'm not particularily a sensualist, nor am I freewheeling. I can be playful, but it's a very rare mood. I don't know whether I'm practical or not...

All I can read online is really a surface scan, and it's going to be what you present to the online world - I mean, you obviously don't put your deepest, inner-most private self up for the world to gawk at. Neither do I. It's one of the things I dislike about reading through "devices" - it's not particularily in-depth.

I don't play the science game. I think science is as much a cult as many others out there - there are too many people who will believe with total faith what a person in a lab coat will tell them, without ever truly thinking it through. I don't know if it's truly purely psychic, or a combination of being perceptive about people, and being psychic. I hate the word psychic anyway. *shrugs* I do what I do, and usually I'm right, and I enjoy doing it. To me, that's all that matters - because that's where my faith lies.

And, yes, strangely - I have had a total stranger, someone I had never met before, see my aura and pick up the feathers. I volunteered as a practice subject for a reiki seminar recently, here in town. There were three students and the teacher, none of whom I had ever laid eyes upon before in my life. We briefly discussed my medical history, what I was looking to achieve with the reiki energy, and began. It was a beautiful experience...but as they were finishing by recharging the auric field, they were making truly awful puns about "putting some wind under my wings" and "fluffing my feathers a little"...until one of them started laughing so hard she started coughing. So I'm guessing they knew, without having to ask me to confirm.

It's the same as when small children look at me and bark, or woof, or say stuff like "Hi Doggy!". Not as many of them caw, or say stuff like "Birdy", but that's happened before too. My best friend's daughter is 2. Stephanie calls me "Puppy" - even though she knows my name is Heather, and doesn't have any concept of therianthropy, weres, or anything of that nature. Her mother is a pragmatic, practical Christian - she doesn't share my beliefs, so I have no idea why I became "Puppy" to Steph. Personally I believe that children are much more open and receptive to things because no-one's told them it's not possible yet.

I don't customarily wear anything that'd give them a clue...my clothing is plain, solid-colour. I do sometimes wear animal-jewelry, but that's customarily under my clothing, or a coat. I'm not ostentatious about my beliefs...so I don't know where

I think we agree on certain things, but we're going to have to agree to disagree on most of it. We just have very different outlooks on life.

Fair enough.

[cypherwulf.livejournal.com]

Hmmm, I've never been a very big dragon, about the same height as a human at the shoulder. And my colors, once dark blue with green eyes, are now a greenish teal with yellow-green eyes. Like my aura has been slowly changing and it picked up in my representations of Cypher. Interesting how you picked up on those things :). As for the buzzyness, that's...odd o_O. I don't feel the need to be out of sight, though I feel I am more often than not. Maybe that's it.
The bit about uncertainty, survival instinct and shyness are dead on. Especially now as I'm preparing for a major life change.
Thanks for the reading :)

[lonewylfe.livejournal.com]

Those colors are following me today from the online random thingy to here to the tea I made for my flu! The sunset color is one color that I've always liked, no matter what color phase I'm in.
As for the staff, a golf bag sounds like a great idea if it's the right length, and there's space there for padding too. Otherwise you could ship it.
Hope you can go to the SEHowl, I'm working on my third year of not being able to go. *sigh*
And the code worked, thanks!!! :) I'm still setting up though, so it's very defaulty atm.

[redstorm.livejournal.com]

So then ... can I be in on the next 'batch'? ;o)

[morgandria.livejournal.com]

Aaah! I forgot you! D'oh - so sorry! I'll put you first in the next group!
-M.

[celticphooka.livejournal.com]

I'm surprised at how accurate this is! *hugs Morg* thanks :) Yes, I'm nervous and impatient right now, and I'm really afraid of what others will think about me. ^_^;

Thank you.

[metachaos.livejournal.com]

The sparklies and fireflies, I wonder what they mean. Other than that, you're right, yesterday and today I've been creating and thinking and have been satisfied with where I am. Good thing you didn't take it when I was worrying about a test or homework. =) As for my aura size, I'm not sure, but I lock away parts of me very efficiently. Even in person, people can have a very difficult time of trying to mess with my energy without permission. I pull back and keep myself cohesive. I don't know if that would have any effect on that. -chuckles- Who know, perhaps I'm not dragon and have just had one visiting.
