I know that they say "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and many other forms of "beauty is subjective" responses. What I am wondering is, what part of ourselves do we use or signify to assess: what beauty is, what qualities makes something beautiful, or why is something not beautiful.

You said that something is beautiful when you gain a positve aura from it. Can something be beautiful if we receive a negative aura? Would it then be only partially beautiful, or be an unbeautiful thing with beautiful parts?
