The end of one year.. and the beginning of another!
It's the end of one great semester here in Hogwarts, anyone excited? Raise your hands up please because I know I am. We've all met new friends, new acquaintances and some've maybe met new love interests but there's still more years to come to meet them once more. First years are excited to be promoted to second years and for all seventh years it's their last semester. Don't worry though we all know a brighter future is in store for you all! I'm sure HNZ is proud to have you all as students and hopes the best for our dear graduates.
End of the semester means; Exams, Graduations, Yearbook and other things that will pretty much make us busy. Don't forget the End of Year feast that will be held once again this semester, a moment for us to celebrate and give thanks for the wonderful years we spent and will be spending once more here in Hogwarts. After all the late night of reviewing our notes for the exams, we'll be throwing snow balls at each other as winter is soon to arrive. So gear up for exams before even thinking for some time to play, you'll have all the time to have some fun later on.

Horoscopes
Aries:
Some fascinating news could reach you today through a friend or group activity. This could involve something close to home or an intellectual subject, perhaps one discussed by the group. You'll want to tell others as soon as you can. Make sure of your facts before you do. Some of them may be mixed up.
Taurus:
Knowledge of a specialized nature could come into your possession today. At some point you could be the center of attention. Everyone, including those with influence over your llife, wants to know what's going on. You'll tell your story and everyone will be rapt, hanging on your every word, expecting answers without even knowing the questions.
Gemini:
If you've wanted to take a class, outside of school, or in, it's time to sign up. If you're already taking such a class, expect a fascinating, stimulating discussion in connection with it. Make sure you take notes, as you won't want to forget this information as soon as you hear it.
Cancer:
If you're trying to learn something, you might obsess about it. In fact, it might even haunt your dreams. It could be frustrating, dreaming about something mundane when you're more used to vivid images, but look at the dreams anyway. Should your mind be operating in a more ordered manner right now? Does something in your life not "add up"?
Leo:
A social event today could put you in touch with fascinating new people in interesting fields. Intriguing discussions could take place throughout the evening. The only problem is if you go there with a friend, you probably won't see much of him or her. You might get involved in separate conversations that last for hours. You'll have a lot to share later!
Virgo:
Something you've come to depend on in your daily life might suddenly go down today. This might throw you into a panic, but don't fall into this trap. Phone a friend who knows about these things or bring in a professional. At times like this, it's best not to agonize over a problem, but to just get it taken care of as quickly as possible.
Libra:
Romantic matters suddenly take a turn for the better as a long, fascinating conversation takes place between you and your crush. This could involve a subject that intrigues you both, so let the information fly! The discussion could end with plans to dig up more facts on the subject. What you find will probably bring up more questions than answers!
Scorpio:
Excitement mounts in your household when some new equipment comes into your possession. This could involve a new cauldron, a broom, or some other device. This could make a big different to everyone, but make sure you don't treat it like a toy. You'll want it to last a while!
Sagittarius:
Expect a full day of activity. You might spend a lot of time in the library, perhaps making arrangements for a social event. There may also be a number of errands to run, though there could be some difficulty with them. Perhaps some items you need are out of stock. You'll still feel productive by day's .
Capricorn:
This could be a lucky day as far as money matters are concerned. Perhaps a sum you were expecting and gave up on will arrive unexpectedly, or a chance to earn some extra income could come up. There might be paperwork involved, and the circumstances may be unusual, but don't be intimidated. Think of this as the day you grabbed the gold ring!
Aquarius:
You tend to be unconventional, but today you could outdo even you. A spiritual experience could be at the heart of it. You're changing in ways that are obvious to everyone. Don't worry if they're confused. You'll be confused, too. Think of yourself as a caterpillar becoming a butterfly! The transition may be strange, but the butterfly is far lovelier than the caterpillar!
Pisces:
Unusual dreams, visions, and audio phenomena may come to you today. You might think you're hearing voices. Before jumping to conclusions, rule out any logical conditions. You're not crazy. This probably indicates a growing psychic awareness. You should write down what you see, hear, or learn during this time. It could be valuable.
End of an Era
Here we go again, the end of another year. Our beloved Seventh Years are leaving us. For those of us who remain, it's just the end of another year, but for the Seventh Years whose time at Hogwarts is ending, it is a bittersweet beginning to a new life. Many of them are adults now, deciding what they want to do with their lives-be a teacher, a healer, work at the ministry? Who know's we may have a future Minister for Magic setting out into the world this year, and I for one will be sorry to see them go.
These will-be graduates have experienced everything we're experiencing now. They have worked, done their O.W.L.s, fought with each other, made up, learned from their mistakes. They are fully ready to become adults, though all of us here, hope, pray that they will look back at Hogwarts fondly, remembering their time here, as time well spent. They are our role-models, and we wish them luck as they venture out into the wide world.
We hope everything goes well for you Seventh Years, have a blast!
