To celebrate auras, I have an annual custom. I turn film critic, comparing auras of top-nominated actors with their auras in roles.

Anyone nominated for Best Actor or Actress has the technical skills down cold. The voice, the walk, the imagination , the ability to make a role seem spontaneous and real.

But if you read auras you can find out something even more fascinating. Who changes so deep, even the aura is altered? What happens deep within chakra databanks, those very individual ways that an aura expresses our innermost truth?

Auras combine changing experiences with gifts of the soul, components that usually don't change. But can a super talented actor change all the way down to that level? Some can.

In this series, I research five ultra-revealing databanks on each nominee for Best Actor. Read along with me, as I use a photo of each nominee, then read those very same databanks in his movie role.

Until you are reading auras through a dedicated technique, try this short-cut. Look into the actor's eyes, in the photo being read. Then turn to the comments on one chakra at a time. Alternating this sequence, you can taste the flavor pretty strongly.

No, this isn't an aura reading technique. Instead, it's a super-scaled-down version of one of my techniques for reading the soul through the eyes. You'll receive about 10% of the clarity from one of my dedicated aura reading techniques, but it's fun. And it's a start.

In "Michael Clayton," Clooney plays a fixer at a powerful law firm. Let's start by exploring him in the role of just George. Here's our photo. www.selfgrowth.com

PRESENCENCE WHEN ENTERING A ROOM AT THE ROOT CHAKRA

Clooney is a very physical guy. It's immediately evident, and that first impression is strengthened by extraordinary, and androgynous, sex appeal.

The rush of testosterone hits this aura reader like a wave. In the second wave, at Clooney Beach, bam! Behold a very female quality, heart-centered, caring, and warm.

Does "androgynous" mean "neither male nor female"? Not in his case. Instead, Clooney is an equal-opportunity seducer, appealing to viewers of any sexual persuasion . The man is just oomphy to the max.

SEX APPEAL AT THE BELLY CHAKRA

It is said that in life there are lovers and there are fighters. George definitely is the former. Aurically, he naturally gives a definitive performance.

Clooney cares. Hugely dedicated to love, he shows his concern and compassion in a very human way. Stellar qualities include kindness, affectionateness, genuine interest in others.

HANDLING POWER IN TOUGH SITUATIONS AT THE SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA

Humor and charm are Clooney's best assets. Force isn't needed usually. But his innermost quality at this databank is the strength of a tiger.

EMOTIONAL CONNECTION TO OTHER PEOPLE AT THE HEART CHAKRA

Empathic abilities are uppermost. The actor is also surprisingly open to others, while his ego is teensy. Curiously refreshing!

SOUL DEVELOPMENT AT THE HIGH HEART CHAKRA

George is a mature soul, loving by nature. Upliftment, joy, sweetness are his soul-level specialties.

Now, drum roll please. Or maybe, in Clooney's case, drum drool? Anyway, here's the link to Clooney's photo as Michael Clayton. www.selfgrowth.com

PRESENCE WHEN ENTERING A ROOM AT THE ROOT CHAKRA

Here's a very physical guy pretending to be mostly intelligent, verging on nerdy. Nice try, George. This level of acting is on a par with having a body builder pose while wearing thick glasses and preppy clothes instead of the usual shorts. After the pose registers, no discerning viewer will really be fooled.

SEX APPEAL AT THE BELLY CHAKRA

Aw, George hasn't changed a thing. Did we really want that? His gorgeous sex appeal is a major reason why we love him, right?

HANDLING POWER IN TOUGH SITUATIONS AT THE SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA

Craftiness is uppermost, and calculating coolness has entered Clooney's aura… sort of. This is a pretty fake coolness. The shifts here are very minor and have a kind of camp quality, as if, "I'm just pretending to be this way -- wink, wink."

Basically, it's "Ocean's Eleven"-style acting, so I wouldn't call it a real change of chakra.

EMOTOINAL CONNECTION TO OTHER PEOPLE AT THE HEART CHAKRA

Sorry, fans, but I've just got to laugh. This is such thin layer of pretense at being not-cute but, instead, serious and bold. No, I really can't count this as a change of aura databank, endearing though it is.

SOUL DEVELOPMENT AT THE HIGH HEART CHAKRA

Clooney hasn't changed much here, other than trying to portray a really tough guy, a survivor.

Total number of chakras dramatically changed: Sigh, zero.

CONCLUSION: Obviously, Clooney is an empath in many ways. He's especially strong at Physical Oneness, Physical Intuition, Intellectual Shape Shifting, Emotional Oneness and Emotional Intuition. His auric presence is an inspiration , especially in the Sex Appeal Department. As an actor, however he's not a serious threat to the other nominees. The man isn't a threat, just a treat.
