Strange new aura seen in the dark, maybe (7)
I believe the answer is:
unaware
'in the dark maybe' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'strange new aura' is the wordplay.
'strange' is an anagram indicator.
'new'+'aura'='newaura'
'newaura' anagrammed gives 'UNAWARE'.
'seen' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for unaware that I've seen before include "Not knowing (of a situation or fact)" , "Not cognisant" , "Uninformed" , "Ignorant - unacquainted" , "Unexpected" .)
