Eliza had slept well the night before. She’d been so tired from all of her classes that she had fallen fast asleep, cuddled up in her blankets. So this morning, she rose wide eyed and bushy tailed and trotted down to the Great Hall to do a little tasseomancy.

She sat her cup and saucer from home on the table and aimed her wand at the saucer. “Aguamenti,” she cast and filled her saucer. “Finite.” Next she tried the charm Ethan had reminded her about to heat the water. She circled the cup with her wand and said the incantation, “Chaudensis!” Slowly but surely, the cup warmed and began to steam.

She sprinkled in some of the special tea her mom had sent her and waited for it to steep. She did her best to clear her mind and think about a special topic. Right now, the thing that came to mind was whether or not she should get a kneazle next year. It was a simple thought for an easy going gal. She began to drink the tea through her teeth, keeping her question in mind, and swirled the cup when there was only a little tea left inside.

She flipped the cup onto the saucer, let the excess drain, and then flipped it back over. Looking clockwise from twelve o’clock, she began jotting down what she saw. On the rim she saw a pair of scissors, which was unusual to her. Usually she saw other shapes like animals. Then in the middle, she saw a…a star-ish type shape. And lastly, on the base, she saw something that looked like a tree. Interesting, she thought, and began looking up their meanings and wrote in her journal what she thought about them.

SPOILER!!: Notes

SPOILER!!: Notes Eliza Dawnsel Ravenclaw Third Year Divination - Homework One Morning Reading: Rim: Scissors - If you want something new you have to get rid of something old. - Present Reading Middle: Star - Health, love, happiness and success. You can‘t control fate. - Near Future Reading Base: Tree - A goal or ambition will come true, be finished. - Future Reading The scissors actually make a lot of sense, although I wish they didn’t, because if I got a kneazle I would be afraid about it fighting with my owl, Luna. But I really would never get rid of Luna, so maybe there’s a way that I could train the kneazle to leave her alone. So that makes sense for the present, because I have Luna now. The star, meaning good health would be great because maybe that would mean that if I do get a kneazle, my owl will still be in good health. But then it says you can’t control fate, so that makes me feel like me trying to train my kneazle not to hunt my owl would be hopeless. And then the tree for the future reading, a goal will finally happen or I’ll accomplish something I’ve been wanting to…so that would mean that I’d get a kneazle, right? Because I’ve been wanting one. I’m not sure, I feel like I’m getting mixed signals on this one. __________________ ... CHARMING ... HUMBLE ... REFINED ...
