Soul Interpretation

Dawn asked me a question about the soul, and then I could stop thinking about souls and what form they might take and what they might look like...and what makes up a soul.


This is how I imagine the soul...

It's a mesh of colours, orb shaped. If you were to see it in real life, it wouldn't be a very distinguishable orb shape, but more like a hazy/misty conglomoration of colours gathered together, but distinguishable from each other. The colours represent your base emotions and your sense of awareness, temperment. There's a small, bright white globe in the middle, and that represents a uniquness. It might also contain your spirit.

I imagine that the colours are constantly moving into and out of each other, corresponding to all of our experiences and how we deal with them. The colours also have different ratios/proportions, even hues, in regards to where we are at a spiritual level.

Say if a person gives into negativity constantly in their life, the red (which to me, respresents negative emotions) takes up a larger portion of their soul, suffocating the golden yellow (which represents love and empathy). The colours could also change intensity in regards to which ones are activated during experiences.

The green that surrounds all of the other colours is, to me, representative of someones spiritual awareness, and that grows thicker, thinner, darker, lighter, in regards to how aware and active you are of a spiritual path.

These of course, are all just musings. I've never read anything about souls before, but it is my expression of what I currently feel makes up a soul.

Now that I think about it a bit more, I think I just used colours to express the different energies that could make up a soul, but in the past I have never actually been able to picture a soul. When I initially started to think about what made up a soul, I thought in colours because that was just how my brain wanted to distinguish the different parts.

Does anyone else have a theory about what makes up a soul?
