Cool Divination Classroom

As you enter the Classroom you notice shelves filled with items like frilly teapots and stacks of matching cups and saucers. On another set of shelves you see rows of glass balls of various sizes and other strange objects like stones and cystals of different shapes, colors and sizes. The tables are large and round, with comfortable poofy chairs surrounding them. The fireplace is lit emitting a warm glow that adds an eeriness as the flames reflect off of the many shiny objects. Professor Kotkin sits back and waits as the students climb the narrow ladder that leads to the tower of the Divination Classroom.

"Palmistry is the ancient practice of studying the lines and signs of the hands. It is said that your palm is the blueprint to your life." she said after raising her hand.

"Palmistry is reading the lines in someone's palm. The lines, such as life and love lines, can be used to interpret and predict events yet to come." Emma said with her hand hitting the air like a bullet out of a gun.

Professor Kotkin listened.... "Good work Adrienne, Sabarina and Emma. Yes Romy, some can read the future in the hands, just as muggles use fingerprints to identify people with. Everyone's hands show patterns that are individual to them, and they tell a story if you know how to read them. In Palmistry, you look to identify where specific lines or fleshy mounds that are called mounts lie on the hand. These lines aren't fixed as you would imagine them to be. They can deepen and change even in a short amount of time, though usually slow. In Padomancy, you use the same principals, but with the feet. We'll cover more on this later when we get to the practical lesson.

Now, can anyone talk about Crystal Ball Gazing, or Reading the Orb?"

Jessica raised her hand, biting her lip as she did so.

"Dreams symbolize the future as they are the thoughts of our Subconscious while the mind is most relazed," she began slowly. "Dream Interpretation is the study of predicting the future by understanding dreams." she stopped. She wasn't sure if she had more to say.

Emma scribbled all this information down on a piece of parchment.

"Crystal ball gazing is when you look into the - obviously crystal orb - and if you are practiced enough, you will see an image come to you and foresee the future." Emma said once again, her hand first in the air.

Professor Kotkin turned to Jessica. "Yes, good answer. Dream interpretation is thought by some to be one of most important means of divining the future, though I myself find some of my own dreams very hard to interpret."

Cassy was busy taking notes, so much so, her wrist ached. She raised her hand slowly and added "Crystal ball gazing relies heavily on the Inner Eye. Also it usually requires for you to be familiar with the Crystal ball you're using as it is more likely to respond. Clear quartz makes the best crystal balls but that can vary from person to person."

Jessica smiled warmly.

"Professor, can a student tell about more than one form of Divination?" she asked politely and eagerly, one hand still up high ans she scribbled more notes with the other.

Professor Kotkin turned to Cassy. "Great answer Cassy. Crystal gazing involves peering into a misty orb as she mentioned, but it is important to note that you must learn to relax and be patient so that the Seer in you can provide you with a window into the future. The word 'Crystal' comes from the Greek word krystallos from krysos meaning 'icy cold'. It was believed that crystals were made from ice that was so cold that they would never melt. Greeks also believed that all quartz crystals were pieces of the archetypal 'crytal of truth'.

Yes Jessica, go ahead and answer another if you would like."

Cassy raised her hand again and hesitated. She knew another one of the answers but also knew that Jessica wanted to speak. She waited patiently for the go ahead before speaking as she didn't want to interrupt or appear rude.

Cassy smiled "I'm not a hundred percent certain but i'm guessing that Hydromancy given the 'hydro' has something to do with water. Does it involve interperating the ripples created when you drop a pebble into water?"

Taylor thought about what Cassy had said. This did seem to make sense, but he thought that he would wait to see what the professor said.

Jessica passed Cassy a quick smile before answering.

"Tasseomancy," she began. "Is the study of tea leaves to help interpret the furtue. The structures and lines on he tea-leaves may help in some ways, but by mixing the tea leavs in water, we can see symbols and shapes that may help us predict furture occurrences." She stopped and swallowed, looking hopefuly at the Professor.

Professor Kotkin replied. "Yes Cassy, but it is more common to use three pebbles or stones. They are thrown into standing water one at a time (one round, one triangular, and one square) and observations are made from the circles formed when they strike the water. You can also go underwater to observe them there. How they land, what is found on or around thee, or how they disturbed the area where they actually settled. Like ripples in the sand, leaves and such.

Can anyone tell us about Pyromancy?"

Taylor sat in his chair letting the other students answer the questions. He knew some answers, but didn't want to say them because the professor had only given Jessica permission to talk.

"The most basic form of pyromancy is that in which the diviner observes flames, from a sacrificial fire, a candle, or another source of flame, and interprets the shapes that he or she sees within them. There are several variations on pyromancy." Sabrina commented after raising her hand.

Taylor raised his hand "Pyromancy (from Greek 'pyros', fire, and 'manteia', divination) is the art of divination by means of fire"

Stacey raised her hand to the professor's question, "Given that Pyro deals with fire then that would mean that Pyromancy is fire magic, casting fireballs, create walls of fire, or protect allies against fire, depending upon power level."
