- I was at the renissance festival on my birthday and they had a womon who
- claimed she could see (and paint!) auras. I didn't have the money to get
- an arua done, so I can't tell you anything. I did hang out at her booth
- for a while but didn't learn anything.
-
- Well, I did learn SOMETHING. I learned that her idea of "aura" and my
- idea of "aura" are NOT the same idea. She also seemed to be picking out
- personality traits. Truthfully, I don't think that she was trying to
- cheat anybody.
