According to Amazon's docs they recommend the MariaDB Connector/J JDBC connector for connecting to Aurora, but I'm guessing MySQL should work fine, too. Also, looks like Aurora can be set up to use SSL/TLS - is that enabled/required/default on your Aurora instance?
Sorry, trying to help but kind of shooting in the dark, here - I agree with the other folks that have responded that it really feels like some sort of network connectivity, firewall, or VDC configuration issue that is blocking the JDBC connection from hitting the Aurora instance. -Nick
