The high point of my reading came at the very end. The fourth selection represents what the future holds and mine was the clear bottle called Serapis Bay. It represents someone who understands suffering and is growing within himself or herself, someone who is aware of the revelations in their life. This, I felt, surely encapsulated who I am.
Khushbu opened the bottle and dabbed some into my hand. It smelled like eucalyptus and jasmine, like fertile soil after a rainfall. It smelled like the future -- my future. She dabbed some into her own hand and, rubbing them together, waved them over the top of my head, behind my shoulders and in front of my chest. She was feeling my aura, she explained, though she never told me what it felt like. She didn't need to; it felt fine.
I'm still a skeptic, but I understand now that Aura-Soma and other holistic therapies don't have any medical value beyond the value you assign them. "Aura-Soma will only work for you if you allow it to," Khushbu said. "It' s not the colors themselves that are powerful so much as how the colors make us feel."
I can buy that. But at NT$2,200 per reading I'd only buy it once.
