A mood journal that changes your garden's weather
Some days are clear and some are cloudy. AuraGarden's journal lets you write freely about how you feel and set your inner weather on a simple slider. Your garden's sky follows along: mist on quiet days, a soft drizzle when things weigh on you, a sunlit clearing when you feel light.
There are no scores, no judgments and no streaks: just a calm place to put your thoughts into words and see them reflected back, kindly.
Plant your gardenWhy writing down how you feel can help
Putting feelings into words is one of the oldest ways of making sense of them. Studies on expressive writing and on naming emotions suggest that describing what you feel can help you see it more clearly and feel a little less overwhelmed by it.
A journal doesn't need to be long to be useful. A few honest lines, written regularly, are often enough to notice patterns: what drains you, what restores you and how your days actually feel over time.
How the AuraGarden journal works
Every reflection becomes part of your garden, gently.
- Write whatever you need, from one sentence to a few paragraphs.
- Set your inner weather on the slider, from gentle storm to luminous.
- Your garden's weather changes to match, and stays for a while before fading.
- Optionally, turn on AI weather: the AI reads the tone of your reflection, without judging it, and suggests the weather with a short, kind sentence.
- Your recent reflections are listed so you can read back over them whenever you like.
Private by design
Your journal is yours alone. Reflections are stored encrypted and only your account can read them; they are never shared in circles or shown in Aura Wrapped. AI weather is off until you choose to turn it on, and you can switch it off at any time. When it's on, reflections are not used to train AI models.
You can download all your data or delete your account, journal included, whenever you want.
A journal, not a therapist
AuraGarden supports reflection and gentle habits. It isn't a medical or psychological service and doesn't replace professional help. If you're going through something very hard, please reach out to someone you trust or a helpline; findahelpline.com lists free, confidential lines by country.

- Can other people read my journal?
- No. Only your account can read your reflections. They are never shared in circles or included in your Aura Wrapped.
- Is the mood journal free?
- Yes. AuraGarden, journal included, is free during its beta.
