Talk:Aura

Canon vs Real life
The "proper" definition of aura from a dictionary doesn't mean that calling the aura in HP for "a subtle field of magical energy" incorrect. Word + context = meaning. And based on context, an "aura" in the Potter universe is, in fact, "a subtle field of magical energy".

For example, in Rowling's universe, Dracula seemed to be inspired by the father of Vlad the Impaler as opposed to Vlad himself, you don't see me complaining. Canon and real life isn't necessarily the same thing. Ninclow (talk) 12:01, April 7, 2017 (UTC)
