Aurea Erfelo, known professionally as Madam Auring (11 March 1940 – 30 October 2020), was a Filipina fortune teller and actress. Auring shot to fame when she correctly predicted Amparo Muñoz winning the 1974 Miss Universe title. Due to this event, she gained popularity, prompting the boxer Muhammad Ali, who was in Manila at the time for the "Thrilla in Manila" boxing event, to seek her advice. The American fortune teller Phyllis Bury had predicted Ali would lose against Joe Frazier, but Auring correctly predicted his win. As a result, Ali gave her the nickname "Madam Auring".
