Embody Your Light with Helen Ye Plehn, Author of Aura Color Wheel

In episode 494 of Soul Elevation, I had the joy of welcoming Helen Ye Plehn to the Podcast for a live conversation that illuminated so much about energy, purpose, and awakening. Helen is a gifted intuitive, artist, and Hay House author whose new book, The Aura Color Wheel, helps people decode their soul aura color to better understand who they are at the deepest level.
I’ve been exploring Helen’s book myself, and it has been both validating and eye-opening. The way she weaves together spirituality, intuition, color, and energy science is remarkable. During our livestream, we went deep into what your soul aura color says about your gifts, your challenges, and how your light evolves over time.
What Is the Soul Aura Color?
Helen explains that each person’s soul carries a distinct vibrational hue, a field of light around the heart that reveals the essence of who we are. This is different from the emotional aura that can shift daily or the mental aura that reflects personality. The soul aura is constant until we integrate new soul lessons or heal long-held wounds.
As we evolve spiritually, our aura color may shift or expand to include new frequencies. Enlightenment, as Helen beautifully describes, is when all seven aura layers become radiant white or golden light, much like what we see depicted around enlightened beings such as Buddha or Christ. More on this:
She created The Aura Color Wheel to serve as a blueprint for soul evolution, helping readers identify their unique gifts and lessons through an intuitive 20-question quiz. Once you know your color, you can use the book to explore the spiritual, emotional, and physical aspects of each layer and how to keep your energy balanced.
How Knowing Your Soul Aura Color Changes Everything
During our conversation, Helen shared how this understanding can transform your life in practical and mystical ways. When you align with your soul aura color, manifestation becomes more natural. You begin to live in flow rather than force, attracting synchronicities, opportunities, and people who resonate with your authentic energy.
She also talked about how healing happens from the inside out. The aura layers act like energetic fields around us. When we nourish our light body through meditation, gratitude, and awareness, physical and emotional healing can unfold effortlessly. I loved hearing her stories of people who released pain and even illness by reconnecting with their soul light.
From Science to Spirit
One of the most fascinating parts of Helen’s journey is her transition from a scientific background into the world of intuitive art and energy work. She’s a third-generation feng shui master, Vedic astrologer, crystal healer, and aura reader who blends ancient wisdom with modern understanding. Her balanced approach helps bridge the gap between analytical minds and mystical hearts.
She shared that she once experienced severe anxiety and panic attacks, which became the catalyst for her awakening. Through her own healing, she discovered that when we align with the energy of our true soul color, life begins to flow with ease, purpose, and abundance.
Living in Flow and Alignment
Helen reminded me that when we honor our soul’s light, we stop searching for external validation. Instead, we co-create with the Universe. Opportunities arise at the perfect time, guidance appears in simple nudges, and synchronicities confirm that we’re on the right path.
She calls this the state of enlightenment through embodiment. Rather than chasing perfection, we simply become more ourselves. The more light we hold, the faster we manifest the life that reflects our divine truth.
Helen’s Invitation
Helen also shared her upcoming Embody Your Light course, which she hosts once a year as a sacred gathering for lightworkers and soul explorers. It includes a guided chakra dance, high-frequency sound activation, and spirit-guided messages. She’s helping thousands of people remember their soul’s brilliance and reconnect with their divine blueprint.

Why This Work Resonates So Deeply for Me
As I reflect on our talk, I’m reminded how powerful it is to witness the divine order that unfolds when we follow intuitive guidance. I’ve had so many moments lately where I choose something small, like a book or a place to visit, and it turns into a signpost of alignment. Conversations like this one with Helen reaffirm that living from the soul creates a life filled with meaning, grace, and magic.
