So last Tuesday I got this weird question stuck in my head: can someone’s yellow aura actually change? Like seriously, mine’s always felt kinda… thin. Like weak lemonade instead of sunshine. Figured I’d test it myself for a whole week. Grabbed my journal, lit my cheap vanilla candle, and sat cross-legged on the floor. Didn’t feel a damn thing at first except my foot falling asleep.
Day 1: The Lemon Juice Experiment
Tried visualizing lemon juice pouring over my head ’cause yellow = citrusy, right? Sat there squeezing my eyes shut trying to “see” it. Lasted maybe three minutes before my cat, Mr. Whiskers, decided my lap looked comfy. Total failure. Noticed I kept fidgeting instead of feeling all warm and glowy like articles say you should. Felt frustrated enough to punch a pillow.
Day 2-3: Music Hail Mary
Searched “happy yellow vibes” music playlists. Found one track that basically sounded like angry bees in a tin can. Another had chirping birds over elevator music. Actually felt my yellow draining away just hearing it. Finally dug out some old funk records my dad gave me – Earth, Wind & Fire type stuff. Bouncing around to September actually made my chest feel lighter. Doodled fat suns in my journal afterward.

Surprise side effect:
- Caught myself humming while doing dishes – usually I slam cabinets doing that chore
- Called my sister just to gossip instead of complaining about work
Day 4: The Salt Incident
Read online that yellow’s tied to digestion (weird, but okay). Ate a giant bowl of salty ramen for “rooting.” Spent the afternoon guzzling water feeling bloated like a sad balloon. Zero aura glow. Major backfire.
Day 5: Sunbeam Cheat Code
Gave up on weird tricks. Just sat by my window during lunch break. Really looked at how sunlight hit my ugly carpet. Felt actual warmth on my hands, closed my eyes and pretended that warmth was honey soaking into my skin. Took exactly one phone buzz from my boss to break it… BUT that little moment felt thicker than previous days.
Day 6-7: Stop Trying So Damn Hard
Stopped forcing visualizations. Just wore my yellow socks deliberately. Ate actual lemons sprinkled on salad. Played my funk playlist while reorganizing junk drawer. When stressed, I’d literally stop and go “Where’s my sun right now?” Sometimes it was just noticing steam rising from my coffee cup. Felt less like an experiment, more like… shifting my eyeballs towards brighter stuff.
After seven days, my aura didn’t suddenly turn neon. BUT when I paused and tried to feel it now? That lemonade felt a little less watered down. Less anxious buzzing in my belly, more… settled warmth behind my ribs when I laughed. Change isn’t flipping a switch – it’s pulling stupid weeds so actual flowers get some space.
What kinda worked:
- Actual Sun + Real Music: Cheap window light and vintage disco beats beat imaginary juice.
- Wearing Yellow Crap: Sounds dumb, but seeing bright socks peeking under jeans subtly pushed my mood up.
- Habit Hack: Replacing “Ugh I’m stressed” with hunting for micro-sunshine moments rewired my autopilot.
So yeah, yellow energy can shift. Not by magic lemon powers or pretending salty noodles are spiritual. You gotta water the actual ground you’re standing on. Throw seeds where your feet actually touch the dirt. Ain’t overnight. Just… less mustardy vibes gradually. Good enough for me.
