While the students were doing the meditation, Sora flicked her wand to the board and revealed the steps of the activity today.

2. Allow tea to brew for 2-3 minutes. You still can add sugar or honey for the taste. Make sure that your mind has been cleared and relaxed enough.

3. Once the tea is cool enough, hold your cup with your NON-DOMINANT hand and sip your tea.

Once relaxed, identify the issue foremost in your mind. As you attempt to think of nothing in particular, is there a stubborn thought that keeps returning to your attention? If so, that is the subject of this reading. Focus on that thought. If nothing in particular comes to mind, then this will be a general tea leaf reading. Focus on your breath and the taste of the tea.

Leave a small amount of tea at the bottom of your cup.

4. Hold your nearly empty teacup in your hand and give it three good swirls. The tea leaves will disperse around the interior of cup. Gently dump out the remaining liquid by turning your teacup over into a saucer. Wait at least three breaths before turning your cup back over.

5. Begin reading the leaf from the handle and read clockwise. Make a notation of the first symbol you see. Mentally divide the cup into three sections: rim, middle and base.

Rim - area is above the tea level when you first poured your tea represents the current moment in time.

Middle - area between the rim and bottom, represents near future (2 weeks)
*Both the rim and middle section represent influences in your outcome.

Base - The bottom of the cup below the middle section, represents the ultimate answer or conclusion.

6. Open your textbook and write your results in a parchment.

She looked at her watch... Okay, it's time to start the activity. "Okay guys, time's up! But if you still need to meditate, you can do it while waiting your tea brewed." The Divination professor spoke up. "Now we start with the reading. The cup that you are gonna use is on your table." She pointed to the cup, please don't break it. "I have provided the hot water in a cauldron there, and the tea leaves are on your table." She pointed to the table on her right side. You can work with a partner or alone, I have no preferences."

Sora clasped her hand and continued talking again. I know that some of you don't like tea or maybe... a little bit suspicious that you might get poisoned or shrunk..." Blame Professor Myers for that. Come on, Sora Yoon wasn't kind of person who liked to do a harm, especially to the innocent students. "But you have to drink the tea if you want to do the reading." Sorry...

"You guys may begin now. I'll be around, and you have a question just raise your hand."

OOC: Hello! Now we have moved on to the main activity. To get a full point, you need minimum three LABELED posts for this section. I'll give you 48 hours to complete the activity. Feel free to work with a partner or just by yourself (like Sora had said).

If your character have a question, your put "Professor?" on the title, or simply just drop a VM/PM on my profile
