Wednesday Word of the Day


Augury (au-gu-ry)

noun :: The art or practice of foretelling events; divination.

noun :: An omen; prediction; prognostication; indication of the future; presage.

~Hmmm, I once started a story about a lady wolf who practiced the art of augury...I need to find that again and see what else Branwen has to tell me for her story.  :)   Silly fact:  I can't say the word divination without attaching a really bad English accent to it!  LOL ~

  2. Augury is back there in my memory, but I've never used it in a story... yes, I do remember Branwen.

    Divination makes me think of Sybil Leek, a real witch.
