"Great guesses everyone but those of you who said Lithomancy are correct. Today we are going to learn how to perform this sect of Divination and how do a basic reading." She allowed the stones to fall out of her hand and back into the bowl. "Firstly to do a reading you will need a stone set that we will take care of in just a moment. The actual process of doing the reading is like what some of you mentioned before by tossing the stones into a circle made of string that will act as our field." She paused to allow them to copy it down if they wanted.

"Once the stones are in the feild we will read them by their position. Now before we get too far ahead of ourselves into the actual reading, let's stay focussed on the stones. If you notice I have both semi-precious and regular stones mixed together in this bowl, varying in different colors." She lifted the bowl for them to see the variety. "So unlike Gem Divination like Miss Greingoth mentioned, the stones you chose to represent the ones in your set can be more of a personal preference rather than a locked in, regulated pattern."

Now onto the question that would lead them into further understanding. "A few of you mentioned planets and other things being represented by the stones but they also represent other things much like the numbers in an Arithmancy reading. There are 13 of them in total and I would like you to please tell me one of the stones and what you think it would represent."

OCC: So please only give ONE stone and it's meaning so everyone can participate.
So he was right about Lithomancy. It's good that he can still recall some of his Divination knowledge, however the tiny problem within it is that, Jonathan couldn't really grasp Divination as a subject. He finds it hard to understand the every single detail of each stone, card reading, etc... It's harder than what people really think. Well, to him it is difficult.

Please tell me one of the stones and what you think it would represent.

Jonathan thought of this through. What were they again? The professor did mention about the planets and technically some students already did. Jonathan raised his hand recklessly without even thinking it "The Water stone, professor" opppps. What did it mean again? Jonathan took a tiny time to give it a thought and finally remembered "It's reconciliation, cleansing and healing" he said in a more confused tone, not really sure if that answer is correct. But it's worth the try. Definitely.
