You could point it out to her, or say 'I feel that you have been ____'. If you do point it out to her, she may get angry, though. You could ask her if she's been ok lately, too, maybe even before pointing it out to her.

Also, you could tell her how it makes you feel.

Romans 12:20 On the contrary: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head."
Same thing applies here. Love her anyways. It's the only way the truth will be truely manifested to her.

I'm a strong believer in being direct. There is nothing wrong with going to someone and telling them 'you're being mean and insulting, its really hurtful and i'm tired of hearing it'.
One thing i've learned is you can't walk around always afraid that you may be seen as rude, especially to people who are mistreating you to begin with. Sure, you go about things nicely, try to handle it peacefully, but if a person still gets offended, oh well. You do have a right to speak up for yourself. Many people who mistreat others do get offended when their actions are called into question, as a defense mechanism. They feel they should have no consequence and don't like it when you provide consequence by pointing out their wrong actions.

Tell your parents. Say to them, "aunt _____ has been insulting me a lot and its really bothering me." or something to that effect. They should be the ones to deal with her since she is the sister of one of them.

God bless.

I agree with zeroturbulence, tell your parents coz they are the ones with the authority over everything between you and your aunt.
