Dora van Gelder Kunz
The Personal Aura
195 pages
published by Quest Books
ISBN 0835606716
An original study of the
human aura, this book includes 19 paintings that depict the emotional energies which
surround each person. The changes that occur from infancy to old age are illustrated by
the auras of specific people. The pictures also show changes that occur in the aura in
illness. The author worked with artist Juanita Donahoo to produce the paintings in full
color. The Personal Aura presents a fresh view of these subtle aspects of the
human constitution, which are hidden from most of us. It offers helpful suggestions for
changing difficult emotional patterns.
«This book is a strangely ethereal and at the same time a completely practical,
down-to-earth work, with vast philosophical implications. The ideas it presents can change
our view of ourselves; they can enhance our understanding of our make-up, powers and
influence, and hence of our responsibilities. Dora Kunz shows us to be linked in
previously largely ignored ways to the universe and especially to other human beings, with
whom we share influences that we do not suspect but that are spellbinding in their
potential.»
