"Practical use of celestial bodies is something that humans, muggle and wizarding alike, have done seemingly since the beginning of time. I want you all to image, for a moment, that you are lost in the Forbidden Forest at night...without your wand..." Just humor him for a second here kids, alright? "How would you try to find your way out?"
Sarah raised her hand
"well, as we know the Forbidden Forest is in the Northern Hemisphere, we can use the North Star to guide us. Or we can use Orinions belt as it goes from east to west. Yet one can really push it by looking at the sky as a whole and seeing where the stars are more prominant. Where there is pollution there will be less stars." That was out of the box. Then she added as a postscript
"these will only work if you can see the sky though"
