A person with a yellow aura typically possesses an active mind and consistent energy supply that helps them achieve any goal they set for themselves. These people tend to be very curious and are not shy about asking questions. Yellow personalities are doers who relish in completing tasks efficiently, and often seem happiest when they are productive. Many of them do quite well in life because they are naturally quick learners and do more than what is expected of them. They frequently get promoted to manager or leadership positions, but can also be quite successful as entrepreneurs. You can find them in all sorts of fields or jobs which involve lots of little details or moving parts. An eye for detail often loans itself to aesthetics and presentation as well. It is not uncommon for them to work multiple jobs or hustle on the side. Yellow is ultimately an energy that craves activity, and these people will happily take on all sorts of home projects or crafts in their free time.

Perfectionist tendencies are especially pronounced in this aura color, and can serve as a driving force or a source of paralysis. These people are usually very particular about the way things should be done, and are prone to become frustrated or critical with the way others carry out tasks—usually because they prefer to do it! Yellows can sometimes default to doing everything themselves, and while they can be quite capable on their own, they also crave interaction and tend to be more sociable or extraverted. There is sometimes a sense of overcompensation or trying to earn approval from others—or perhaps from themselves. Truthfully, yellows are often hardest on themselves, and seemingly try to find a sense of personal value or wholeness through achievement. As caring and helpful as they can be towards others, these mental personalities tend to bury their emotions in work or to try and rationalize them away.

Yellow people often need to remember to engage in self-care and make concentrated efforts to rejuvenate. Despite their vast amounts of energy and productivity, these task-oriented people can and often do overextend themselves to the point where they have no time for their personal needs, especially if they are avoiding uncomfortable emotions or wounds. Many of them are drawn to personal development or self-help, and usually discover spiritual concepts through their natural curiosity. Even if they do not believe in spirituality per say, they are usually fascinated to learn about how others think and carry out their lives, and will likely pick out facets that seem useful to them. Although it may seem paradoxical to their perfectionist nature, yellow people are usually open-minded and love to research and explore new topics. Affirmations and intention-setting can help the yellow person get back in touch with who they are and reconnect with what they are ultimately working towards. When they learn to quiet their minds or pay less attention to their thoughts, they can actually become quite intuitive. Claircognizance (or clear knowing) is often the most natural channel for psychic or intuitive information—a yellow person “just knows” things without being able to fully explain why. The mind of a yellow person often works quickly and is able to make many connections, but it is wholly possible for a yellow person to get so caught up in the details of a project or task that they lose sight of the bigger picture.

Anxiety is often a persistent undercurrent and can manifest as headaches, migraines, muscle spasms, and digestive problems. Yellow people seem prone to issues with the biliary system, which includes the liver, gallbladder, and bile ducts. Many yellows enjoy integrative body modalities such as yoga or massage, which helps them deal with the tension and stiffness they are prone to experience. Exercise helps regulate their energy levels and stay calm. Perfectionist tendencies sometimes lead to disordered eating or obsessive-compulsivity in this aura color. When showing up as an overlay on top of another aura color, yellow might flush over the eyes of an individual who is rationalizing or not recognizing their emotions, as well as over the whole face when trying to appear cheerful or put-together. Stimulants such as caffeine can ironically show up like a dingy yellow-brown coffee stain over the aura. Yellow may also indicate hyperactivity, an overactive mind, or possibly even a degree of mania. Yellow is perhaps the most common color people wear inauthentically in the aura spectrum, which is fitting given how much modern society values work. Most authentic yellows tend to be physically healthy people in general, however, so long as they take time for themselves.

As the yellow person gets older, they better learn to manage their expectations and energy. When they are healthy and aligned, they are some of the most vibrant, fun-loving, caring, and energizing people in the aura spectrum, but can become overly critical, neurotic, irritable, and difficult to be around when they are out of balance—which is usually quite hurtful for the yellow person and can become a downward spiral. Yellows are usually great friends or allies, but sadly often feel alone when other people cannot maintain the same attention or care when their own lives get challenging. One of the best ways to support a yellow is by simply asking questions, perhaps most especially, “How can I help you?” This approach allows the yellow to organize their thoughts and choose what they want to do and delegate everything else. Yellow personalities are usually strong, independent spirits who are learning that it is okay to not be put-together all the time. When they really slow down and accept things as they are, they are able to appreciate the divine order and perfection that exists in the messiness of daily life.
