Aura of Color

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Aura of Color — a new monthly event series at Aura Gardens celebrating the energetic and emotional power of color through art, ritual, and design. Crimson Harvest marks the first in this ongoing journey, making it an especially meaningful evening to join. Each month will feature a new palette and theme — but this inaugural gathering sets the tone for what’s to come.

As autumn deepens and the natural world turns inward, we invite you into Crimson Harvest — a vibrant chapter in the Aura of Color series where creativity and intention meet in ritual, reflection, and expression.

This month’s hue is Crimson — a lush burgundy-red that symbolizes vitality, beauty, and embodied passion. Crimson connects us to the root and sacral chakras, awakening a sense of grounded creativity and deep personal power. Crimson Harvest honors the deep gathering of energy that happens in stillness — a reminder that even as the world quiets, we are cultivating richness beneath the surface.

Led by Rachel Larraine Crawford — Aura Gardens’ very own interior designer, Reiki Master, certified Feng Shui practitioner, and founder of Tiger Veil — this intimate and highly anticipated evening includes:

✨ Grounding Ritual — Begin with a meditative practice and chakra-attuned singing bowls to align with the lush energy of Crimson Harvest.

✨ Color Theory — Discover the emotional and symbolic power of crimson within both design and spiritual frameworks.

✨ Personal Reflection — Explore your connection to this shade and how to bring its energy into your home, body, and creativity.

✨ Creative Practice — Through intuitive abstract watercolor, you’ll express what Crimson Bloom stirs within you. All materials are included!
We'll be working with professional-grade Winsor & Newton watercolor paints, and each participant will have the opportunity to practice techniques before creating and taking home two 5" x 7" original watercolor pieces on luxurious Arches watercolor paper. No experience necessary, just bring your curiosity and creativity.

✨ Palette-Inspired Tastes — Enjoy a signature beverage (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) and appetizer crafted in the spirit of Crimson Harvest, with additional food and drink available for purchase.
