The practice of Aura-Soma was developed by Vicky Wall, who drew upon the mystical traditions of the Kabbalah and the medical and healing qualities of living plants that she learned from her father. Being the 7th of child of a 7th child, her whole life was full of mystery. Clairvoyant from childhood, she was able to perceive the subtle energies surrounding an individual. As an adult, this clairvoyant ability was amplified as her physical sight diminished and was eventually lost. Having been an apprentice to a pharmacist in an earlier phase of her life, her understanding of the importance of combining substances resurfaced as she created the first dual coloured Equilibrium bottle. At first she did not know the significance of what she had discovered, but it soon became clear that the oils, extracts and essences contained in these bottles had remarkable qualities to facilitate perception and self re-membering.

VICKY WALL (1918-1991) was one of the first women appointed as a surgical chiropodist in England, and she taught at many teaching hospitals in London. After losing her eyesight, she developed the Aura-Soma colour system, and was able to help it become firmly established as a new re-balancing method.
