Parts of a Magical Aura

Chapter 2
The magical aura (as explained before) is a living ball of magical energy that invisibly encircles a witch/wizard. There are three main layers of a magical aura, the farthest from the human body is the Praesidium, the middle layer is called the Angulus, and the closest to the human body is called the Amineum.
The Praesidium is the part of the magical core that protects the witch or wizard from easily being read by somebody. If there was no Praesidium, everybody would be classified as a Legilimens. The Angulus is what holds the Praesidium and the Aminuem in place. If there was no Angulus, there would be no Praesidium or Aminuem. However, the Angulus is the easiest barrier to get past. The Aminuem is the core of your Aura, it is the inner rim of the magical sphere that encircles you, without the Aminuem, it would be much harder to produce any magic.

Parts That the Layers Contain

The Praesidium layer contains a major part for blocking people, the Clius. The Clius encircles the Angulus, along with the Praesidium rim, however the line is more skinny. The Clius is most definitely what might hurt a Legilimens' brain is he or she tries to get through the mind to quickly. The reason why Legilimens can read people's minds so easily, is because they can easily get past the Praesidium and Angulus, they usually have trouble with getting through the Amineum at first, bu then they get used to it. In my first few years of Legilimens tutor school, I had trouble getting through the Amineum, but now that I've gotten used to it, it's not so hard.

Interactive Activity:
Try to draw a diagram of a magical aura, label the three layers, and draw an arrow pointing to where the Clius is.
