Not exactly the best explanation, considering that Monty insists that Dust is not magic at all. I'd say...


 * Dust: A material that comes in the form of crystals, which can be powderized. The energy within it can be drawn out and used in a variety of ways, apparently. It can be used in battle, most often for offense and often in an elemental form. It's insinuated that it's also used for powering things, as it's an "energy propelant." Or maybe I'm wrong.


 * Aura: Energy that comes from within your soul. It's often used for defense as a shield, but it may be able to be used for offense in hand-to-hand, as shown by Lie Ren. It comes from within and has to be controlled and practiced with. From Pyrrha saying Jaune has a lot of aura, we could jump to the conclusion that there are people who only have a small amount of aura, and thus aren't suited for using their aura in combat, as theirs is weak.
