The Magic of Magenta
July 25th, 2006
Since I started studying Aura-Soma in 1996 until this year, I always found that the colour Magenta was a bit of an enigma for me. I feel that I am only now truly starting to understand this colour.
I learnt that magenta was to do with Divine Love and love in the little things. I could understand these rather lofty principles and I could feel this love running through the threads of my life, particularly when I really trusted in the Universe.
Every time I felt that I “understood” the Magenta it somehow felt that it was elusive and just slipped out of my grasp again.
The idea I have of Divine Love is to truly be loved for who we are including warts and all. This was something that was also very difficult for me to grasp, as human beings we have the concept of Unconditional Love, yet I think that this is something that is very difficult to practise.
It is easy for us to feel unconditional love when we have just meditated or when things are going really well in our lives but not as easy when we are tired or when we are stressed.
To have this love from another dimension that loved me for just being me and not wanting to change me was something really difficult to understand.
An interesting challenge was when people would come for a consultation, pick a great deal of Magenta and then explain to me that they were atheists.
As the understanding of Aura-Soma grows, what we now see is that Magenta also relates to Grace - the energy from above that is freely given but up to each person how much they wish to take!
What we feel that we are able to take is in direct proportion to what we feel we deserve and how much we can accept that we truly are loved for all the aspects of ourselves and not just the light ones.
It also links to the potential of the Soul and it can also help to guide us to find our true potential and how to enable that into the world.
We also see that from the Colour Rose, Magenta is made up from Red and Violet. Violet is made up from Blue and Red. Therefore Magenta contains a great deal of Red. This was the key that helped me to really realise the energy of the Magenta.
In the past if we chose to uncover our spirituality we could “opt” out of the world and choose to live as a hermit, in a monastery or in a nunnery. Information studied in Mystery schools and temples was not made freely available and we had to go through a series of initiations to be able to study with a certain school. Now as a rule, we are asked to incorporate our Spirituality with our every day lives and to truly the balance the two. Information is freely available and we have to discern what information is right for us.
We need to meld our Spirit to ordinary, every day tasks like washing the dishes as opposed to only certain ceremonial times in our diary. It is up to each of us to take something so utterly beautiful and precious, to become a facet of this and to be an emissary for this energy in the world.
We have to become a living, breathing example of what Divine Love is really about.
Magenta is also about the right livelihood so we need to find the path that brings joy, fulfils our potential and allows us to be who we truly are.

Hi Simone, Thanks for this great piece and help with understanding the underlying meanings of Magenta.
In Mike’s tape on the Masters (talking about St. Germain) he said that it didn’t matter what you did, even if you swept roads, that each contribution was valuable, and it does seem that in the small details of life if you give them your full attention wherever you are: office, home, outdoors, then this is a form of service to others in your environment.
Someone told me of a visit to a monastery and seeing a monk doing the washing up. She was enchanted with the care and attention he gave in washing and drying each cup as though it was very special and of the finest porcelain. This seems to be a very magenta quality.
As Hexagram 46 in the I Ching comments: “Thus the superior man of devoted character heaps up small things in order to achieve something high and great.”
With love, Diana
