Exercise 1:  Remember the ogam cards you made in the initiatory lessons? Take out the ones with the name of the letter on the front. Draw the symbol on the front of the card, next to the name of the letter. Then write the correspondences on the back. Add 5 additional cards for the "combination" letters used in this book (which weren't part of the initial ogam letters memorized). Be sure to write down their correspondences as well. No need to repeat your work here, just let us know you've done this exercise.

Exercise 2:  Do the Omen Journey on pages 199-200. Give a brief report. If the god/goddess gave you a stone divination, give an explanation of what you think it means.
