Rune 02: Uruz

[psiignlanguage]

While I understand that as students you are on holiday for Easter, I would like to take this opportunity to express that you do have a small assignment due the week after we return from break.

This does not mean you can hold off on the assignment until the night you return.

For all students of my classes, prepare for me an analysis, no less than ten inches of parchment, of how you might find and use runes in Easter ceremonies. Where can you see them playing a role, and where do you think their magic might be useful in the ceremony. A piece of advice, look into the pagan celebration of Oustre if you're feeling stuck.

That is your first part of the assignment, due the first day of class after break.

The second part will involve choosing one of those elements of runic magic that you felt would be helpful during Easter, and composing research.

Not an incredibly difficult assignment for my students who have been paying attention.

Enjoy your holiday.

Greetings, Peter.
I trust you've been on your best behavior?

{>That depends on your definition of good behavior!<}
{>Probably not though.<}
{>Sometimes you need to be adventurous and that can mean breaking minor rules!<}

[psiignlanguage]

Adventure or not.
You are a teacher and I expect you to leave a good impression on your students.
Not lead them into doing something reckless.

{>Or not encouraged to try new things!<}
{>Even risky ones.<}
