Practice, practice, practice! I promise you will attain the ability to see auras if you apply yourself. It takes years to become an adept, but you will see them quite quickly in your beginning stages. From there your abilities deepen and get more precise as you grow spiritually and exercise your "magical muscles." I highly encourage you to develop this skill. It is actually one of the easier spiritual powers (siddhis) to attain and everyone can do it. You do not have to be born with special tendencies or skills. It is a matter of training your eyes to see auras, which have always been there, you just didn't notice them before.

I wouldn't say that I am seeing auras 24/7, for there are times when it is useful to use your spiritual sight, and others when it is necessary to turn your spiritual powers off so that you can get about your business, like balancing checkbooks, getting to work, fixing your bed and other mundane tasks. However, I often use this ability during conversations, or when I'm quietly and lovingly observing others as they are engaged in an activity while I am a spectator. I have discovered that it takes a certain state of mind to see auras, and it is definitely not easy if you are hurrying, late for work, or in a busy situation where you have to focus and concentrate on what you are doing. I don't recommend that you try to see auras while driving your car or operating dangerous machinery. If you are seeing auras, you are in too relaxed a state for driving. However, whenever the opportunity presents itself, soften your mental body, open your heart, and allow yourself to see the subtle energy of the aura. It becomes a useful tool once you understand the aura and its nuances, but like I said, there is no formula for understanding what you are seeing in the aura. It takes intuition and wisdom to know what it means in each individual that you meet.
