You can't pick a card that can't legally be returned to the battlefield. If there are no cards that can be legally returned, then you can't pick one.
8/1/2005
If you choose an Aura, you can put it on any permanent it can legally enchant. If there is nothing it can legally enchant, it remains exiled, and it can still be chosen by you or another player later in the auction. If there comes a point where only Auras and no legal permanents left, they stay exiled permanently.
