is the a female_aura mesh that has an animated aura with alternating colors?

I've never seen one. You could take one of the famale "Torch" meshes and make the fire file multicolored, although that wouldn't do exactly what you describe.

I downloaded the hex of the female basic auras but I cannot seem to find the the mesh bit for the aura. I want it to be activated all the time not just in flight. I can try to animate textures for the colors but i need the aura to be a permentant piece

If the aura has its own tga, you should be able to get this effect by changing it to an ifl and programming multiple tgas in each color to alternate.  In theory that would work.  I did this when I was helping Crusader update Suicide Squad, to make Spectra change colors every frame.  I was changing the female basic tga but in theory it would be the same.

rmt,

you were reading my mind about the skinning aspect.  my issue right now is the skoping aspect as I cannot find a female aura that remains fixed, and not regulated to flying/hovering key frames.

Well if the aura comes and goes it has to have keyframe commands to make that happen.  Seems like there should be a way to make it static by somehow eliminating those commands, but that's beyond my abilities unless you have the max file.  I could do it in max for you but no idea how to do it in nifskope.

Otherwise, best I can suggest is to take the aura from vxmale and put it on vxfemale (you;ll have to rename the brows, mouth, and fingers/thumbs as Bobby appears to have used a different naming configuration).  It's not great as it's still the shape of male aura so it's a not exactly tailored.  But it might do.  It's big enough to take in the chest but not the hair, at least on the default hairstyle.
