"How come Alice and Jasper can affect Bella with their supernatural powers, but Edward and Aro and Jane can't?

This question comes up at every single signing! The answer is explained in Eclipse, but I'm going to tell you all anyway, just so there's less confusion.

Bella has a very private mind. She can't be touched there. What Edward and Aro do is clearly a mental thing; Jane, also, works inside the head (Jane doesn't actually inflict pain on anyone's body, she just puts the illusion of pain inside her victim's head. It's a very effective form of torture). Conversely, what Jasper does is no illusion. He affects the physical body, slowing the pulse and upping the endorphin levels to calm someone, for example, or raising the pulse and pumping out the adrenalin to excite them. Alice, also, works outside the mind in the realm of possible realities. She doesn't see the thought process behind the decisions, just the outcomes."

Edward, Jane and Aro affect on mind, and Bella don't have one, she is really rare species. But I guess she has sort of emotions and future so Jasper's and Alice's powers work on her

with vampires who's powers affect the mind- so edward, aro, jane, zafrina, kate etc etc- they have no effect on bella because her mind is ammune to these- no one can get to her in her mind. Alice, who's power shows outcomes of peoples decisions mean she can see bella future, as she only see the outcome of a decision, not why the peson made the decision in the first place...

with jasper he affect the glands in the body which release endorphins and adrenelne thus being able to calm or excite someone. He does not do this via the brain, he does it directly, which is why he can control bellas emotions
