Tactile telepathy is a special ability that Aro possesses; it makes him capable to read people's thoughts by touching them.
Description
Aro reading Alice's mind.
Aro can see all the thoughts, feelings and memories someone has ever had upon physical contact with them. The longer the contact, the more thoughts Aro is able to obtain. This gift makes him much more powerful than Edward Cullen's telepathy, as his gift can only let him hear the passing thoughts while Aro can look deeper into the memories.
In New Moon, when Bella was in Italy, Aro attempted to read her mind but failed, just as Edward can't read Bella's mind.
In Breaking Dawn, Aro uses his talent to read Edward's mind and thus saw into every vampire's mind at the current moment.
Limitations
Unlike Edward, he can only read a person's mind once being in physical contact with them. Meaning he can easily become a target of danger if he's not careful. This explains why he needs bodyguards to protect him when he is facing a certain target.
Another limitation is that he has no penetrating capability with this gift, meaning he can be blocked by a mental shield such as Bella's.
Edward Cullen can read the thoughts of others from a distance, which allows him to hear everyone's thoughts at the same time, but he can only hear the thoughts that pass at the moment.
The Black and Uley wolf packs can hear each other's thoughts from a distance. This connection allows the packs to communicate and work effectively as teams.
