Description
Up until Ninth Edition of the Core game, Auras were known as "local enchantments". They said "Enchant (object)" - where (object) is what it could enchant - instead of "Enchantment." Thus, local enchantments carried all the rules in their type, which agonized R&D.[1] Now that the rules are in the actual Rules Box, Auras can be more diverse and it's easier for beginners to recognize that Auras are enchantments.
Rules
Examples
Example 1
Holy Strength
Enchantment — Aura
Enchant creature
Enchanted creature gets +1/+2.
Example 2
Conquer

Example 4
Power Leak 
Enchantment — Aura
Enchant enchantment
At the beginning of the upkeep of enchanted enchantment's controller, that player may pay any amount of mana. Power Leak deals 2 damage to that player. Prevent X of that damage, where X is the amount of mana that player paid this way.
Example 5
Animate Dead
Enchantment — Aura
Enchant creature card in a graveyard
When Animate Dead enters the battlefield, if it's on the battlefield, it loses "enchant creature card in a graveyard" and gains "enchant creature put onto the battlefield with Animate Dead." Return enchanted creature card to the battlefield under your control and attach Animate Dead to it. When Animate Dead leaves the battlefield, that creature's controller sacrifices it.
Enchanted creature gets -1/-0.
