You're making things harder than they need to be. In SR3 auras still exist on the astral
plane - the only difference is that you can pass through them (unlike SR2). Now, you can
only NOT pass through astrally active beings.

What's made this confusing is that you're still under the belief that in SR3 auras still
can't be passed through. They can now. That's what's changed. They still exist on the
astral, etc.
