"Well, well..." Professor Turner grabbed Jeremy's hand and studied it. "Your life line tells me you'll be dying in your 60s, so I don't think you have to worry too much about it." She continued the class. "Well, you seem to know the basics. Please take out your textbook and complete the quiz there, and answer the questions in the back of the book.
OOC: The full directions can be found on the Homework page under 1st Years, Divination.
Professor Turner nodded. "Good, then we'll be hearing about those from the two of you. It should be the easiest line to research, but that's fine by me since those lines are the most major. Today then, we shall discuss the fate line. What is the normal fate line position and direction?"
Ferlen would glance at Elizabeth, but as she didn't seemed to have studied for this class, he would raise his hand and answer. "The absence of a fate line means that you have no great fate. You will basically have an insignificant and eventless life. When looking for this, it should be seen in conjunction with the persenal absence of the line of Apollo."
Professor Turner went down to business in a dreamy voice. "Welcome to Divination. This year we will be discussing the reading of tea leaves. Can anyone tell me the proper tea to use in such readings?"

Professor Turner's eyes narrowed dangerously. "Dreams are outward signs of your very soul. Problems that you can't admit, prophecies of things to come, they can all be found in your dreams, like a storybook. If you don't think this is important, then I would consider whether or not to stay in this class." Professor Turner changed gears, however. "Can anyone name a specific type of dream?"
Professor Turner turned to Maureen. "You may walk in, and I will take away 5 points from your House, or you may close the door quietly and not come back without a pass from a teacher." Professor Turner turned back to the class. "Very well. Virgo. When may a Virgo be born?"
Professor Turner went down to business in a dreamy voice. "Welcome to Divination. This year we'll be talking about tarot card readings. This is perhaps the form of Divination that requires the most intuition. Only a true Seer can read tarot cards effectively. Can anyone tell me how many tarot cards there are?"

"Closer. There are actually 5. The last is innominatum, or the unnamed. Can anyone give me a brief overview of 'The Fool'?"

The fool is one of the Major Arcana. He is known as the cause behind all effects, and the start of all journeys. Some say he sees life through the eyes of a child- not a fool at all, just pure and innocent. That's why the Rider Waite Tarot shows him walking towards a cliff
