'Umwelt: The world as it is experienced by a particular organism.'

Everyday we are creating new cells and new memories. We are consistently going through periods of growth.

At a new chapter in my life, one with a deeper sense of the self and an awareness of my surroundings, I have come to explore my aura. How it can radiate and merge together with those I surround myself with, how it is affected by others and how others have been affected by my own. Our aura is a characteristic that embodies a person's quality. It is “seen” as a luminous body that surrounds our physical one, each layer and colour depicting different emotions.
What reflects back at you as you look in the reflections which dance through the water?
What do you see?
What do you feel?
Only you will know.
