About

The Most Amount of Aura I’ve Used on a Level 1, also known as Probably the Most Amount of Aura I’ve Used on a Lvl 1 Crook, refers to a TikTok trend in which people use their "aura" on inferior subjects often called a "crook," "peasant" or "low vibration being." The physical representation of using aura was either putting a hand out to signal "stop" or kissing the subject's head. The trend started in early 2024.
