I'm on holiday. Well, study holiday, is that a thing? Anyway got some exams and will be back in a week. Why the selfie you ask? Well, that's my excited sleep-deprived exam face 😉. Cheers.

Everyone procrastinates. It's all good 😊.

Cycles of nature were at the core of the ancient practice of divination to decipher the will of the gods. Many different methods of divination were practiced in antiquity, such as dream interpretations (oneiromancy), interpreting the entrails of slaughtered animals (haruspicy), and augury (ornithomancy) which interprets the movements and activities of birds. Augury in particular became famously influential in the Roman empire.
