I cited several. It occurs to me that in the story of Moses it was 
said that when he descended from the mountain some sort of phenomenon 
was observed surrounding his head which was mistakenly interpreted to 
mean thet he had grown horns.

Incidentally I do not recall Blavatsky ever mentioning this. I 
thought it was Leadbeater who wrpte the book on auras.
