Sounds like you saw part of your aura around your feet. This is not seen with the physical eyes, but they are involved. So it 'appears' that we are seeing with the physical eyes.

Look slightly to the side when you do this, and unfocus your eyes so you have a relaxed gaze. This works better. And, when your aura starts to appear, do not change your gaze and do not focus on it or it will disappear.
