Aura points are, in essence, a fun method to gauge someone's level of coolness.
Depending on the assessment of the person awarding the points, every action a person takes in life has the potential to either raise or lower his or her overall aura points.
According to Know Your Meme, the term aura most likely gained popularity in the X basketball and football communities when people would commend specific athletes for their aura. But when users began measuring it on TikTok, a new mechanism was created.
