Tradition, not measurement. What aura cameras actually record →

Light and dark amber

These two are not symmetrical, and it goes the opposite way to how it looks. Dark amber is the same wavelength with less light — still pure. Light amber is that wavelength plus every other one, because white is all of them. The pale version is the mixed version.

Light amber

Adding white light, which means adding every other wavelength alongside the 585–595 nm band. So a light amber aura is, in physical terms, less purely amber than the standard one — the hue is diluted, not brightened. Read as warmth with a long memory held more lightly.

Dark amber

The identical wavelength at lower intensity — fewer photons, same frequency. Dark amber is therefore the only one of the two that is still purely amber: nothing has been added to it, only removed. Read as holding on past the useful point — the strained version.

Questions about the amber aura

What does a amber aura mean?

Warmth with a long memory. The shadow side is holding on past the useful point.

Is amber a real colour of light?

Yes. It occupies 585–595 nanometres of the visible spectrum — 10 nm out of the roughly 370 the eye can see — so a single frequency of light produces it.

Which chakra is amber?

None — the system covers 8 colours out of these 31. The seven chakras →

How rare is a amber aura?
