The third aura body is the mental body. This body extends beyond the emotional and is composed of still finer substances, all of which are associated with thoughts and mental processes. This body usually appears as a bright yellow light radiating about the head and shoulders and extending around the whole body. It expands and becomes brighter when its owner is concentrating on mental processes. It extends from three to eight inches from the body. The mental body is also a structured body. It contains the structure of our ideas. This body is mostly yellow. Within this field can be seen thought forms. They appear to be blobs of varying brightness and form. These thought forms have additional colors superimposed on them, actually emanating from the emotional level. The color represents the person's emotion that is connected to the thought form. The clearer and more well-formed the idea, the clearer and more well-formed is the thought-form associated with that idea. We enhance these thought forms by focusing on the thoughts they represent. Habitual thoughts become very powerful "well-formed" forces that then affect our lives. This body can be the hardest to observe. The text above is excerpted from Barbara Brennan's book Hands of Light, pages 50, 51 The third level is associated with our mental or rational world. The lines of structure in this level are very delicate, like the finest thin veil. This level's light lemon-yellow energy lines pulsate at a very high rate. (Its brightness, fullness, and energy flow along standing lines of light that correspond to our mental processes and our states of mind.) |
Notes (continued):When this level is balanced and healthy, the rational and intuitive mind work together in harmony as one, and we experience clarity, balance, and a sense of appropriateness. When the first three levels of our field are synchronized, we feel self-accepting, safe, and appropriate and have a sense of personal power.If your third level is strong and charged, you will have a strong, clear mind that serves you well. You will have an active healthy mental life and be interested in learning. If your third level is weak and undercharged, you will lack mental agility or clarity. You will probably not be very interested in academics or other intellectual pursuits. When our thoughts are negative, the pulsations in the field are slower, the lines become dark and distorted. These "negative thought forms" are the form that corresponds to our habitual negative thought processes. They are difficult to change, because they appear to be logical to the person experiencing them. If your first and second levels are weak and your third is strong and energized, you will tend to be someone who lives more in the mind than in your feelings or body. You will be much more interested in problem solving by reasoning things out than by considering your feelings in any decision. This will automatically limit your life experience. Negative thought forms are also squeezed into action by stagnated emotions from the second and fourth levels just adjacent to them. In other words, when we try not to feel negative emotions about ourselves (second level) and/or about another person (fourth level), we stop the energy flow in the second and fourth levels. The energy flow in the third level then becomes distorted by this "squeeze." Another way to understand this is to remember that the natural state of energy is constant movement. When the movement of energy is stopped in the second and fourth levels in order to stop negative emotions, some of that momentum is transferred into the third level. The momentum that moves into the third level causes mental activity. The activity is distorted because it is not free to move naturally and it is squeezed in by the energies just below and just above it. I think the habit of maintaining negative thought forms is supported in our culture. It is more acceptable in our society to have negative thoughts about people and to malign them behind their back, than it is to express negative emotions to their face. We don't have an appropriate model in which to do this. It would be much more appropriate to look inside and find the negative emotions we have toward ourselves. Usually, we have negative feeling toward another because interacting with that person evokes some sort of negative feeling toward the self.
