A nonland permanent card is an artifact, creature, enchantment, or planeswalker card.

2017-11-17wotc

If you have fewer than X cards in your library, you reveal all of them.

If you put an Aura onto the battlefield this way, you choose what it enchants as it enters the battlefield. This doesn't target any permanent or player, but it must be able to enchant that permanent or player. For example, you could put a green Aura onto the battlefield enchanting a creature with hexproof controlled by an opponent, but not one with protection from green.
