It all depends upon your GM really. The spell would be designed exactly
like Clairvoiance, but only let you see astral space. It really isn't
that useful for keeping people away from your foci, or even reading the
auras of people. But, if'n you are paranoid enough. The aura reading
spell sounds pretty good, but it should only allow aural reading, not
enhance it(Ergo, you still roll the skill or make a perception test).
