Who has been most radiant this year? You can see the light in their eyes. You can feel a glow of love and joy all around them. "In this first year of selecting the brightest celebrities," says bioenergetic field researcher and International Aura Awareness Day founder, Cynthia Larson, "2002 has presented the world with some truly radiant people, whose inner light, or aura, truly stands out."
