==========

The word soma is Greek, meaning "body"; the soma of a neuron is often called the "cell body". (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soma_(biology))

There are many different specialized types of neurons and the size of the soma can range from about 5 micrometres to over 1 millimetre for some of the largest neurons of invertebrates. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soma_(biology))

This creates a challenge for supplying new proteins to axon endings that can be a meter or more away from the soma. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soma_(biology))

Axons contain microtubule-associated motor proteins that allow for the transport of protein-containing vesicles from the soma to the distant ends of axons. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soma_(biology))

Soma is a town in the Gambia, lying south of the River Gambia. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soma,_Gambia)

Aura-Soma is a divination system based on colour, similar to and sharing much in common with Tarot, the I Ching, the Kabbalah etc. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aura-Soma)

The central idea of Aura-Soma is that colour is a unifying universal language which relates to all other theologies and schools of psychology. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aura-Soma)

The practice and the products of Aura-Soma are all colour related. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aura-Soma)

While sounding superficially like the processes of other systems like Tarot, practitioners of Aura-Soma do not regard it as Fortune-telling, but instead to be more like a counselling method, similar to the Lüscher color test, Rorschach inkblot test and other similar psychological methods of accessing the unconscious mind as separate to the conscious mind.

Aura-Soma is not, however, a science or branch of psychology. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aura-Soma)
