- Further details on Consular Tribunes -

Consular Tribunes are an extraordinary office recently recognized due to recent administrative reforms taking place. These reforms are to make the Roman Republic better and result in regular elections this fall. These Consular Tribunes are to hold this new office for the remainder of the calendar year and shall have the powers and responsibilities of all regularly elected magistrates (Censores, Consules, Praetores, Aediles, and Quaestores). No further regularly elected magistrates are scheduled to be elected this year. Consular Tribunes have the ability to veto each other. All details pertaining this office are outlined in the following edict from the Comitia Curiata - viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2409

- On the details of the meeting -

I will be chairing this meeting on an extraordinary basis as requested by the Comitia Curiata. Normally this would be the job of Consuls. Auspices will be taken by myself as extraordinary chair and with the assistance of an augur recognized by the Roman Republic.

The meeting will occur digitally in this location - viewforum.php?f=3

Brutus Augur Sal.

I have not witnessed Ex Caelo.

I have witnessed Ex Auibus.

Alites seen from the North West.

Oscines heard from the North.

I have not witnessed Ex Diris.

Divine messengers for you and for Rome, established by this ordinance reported by Augur P. Iunius Brutus to Q. Furius Camillius who took these auspices.

AVES ABDICUNT for starting a meeting of the Comitia Centuriata on this day of VI Kal. Mai. MMDCCLXXII a.u.c.. The signs are consistent with strong divine disfavour with the onset of such a meeting today.

[Quintus Furius Camillus]

SALVETE!

Romans, the Gods have been benevolent and revealed the best course of action. We must delay the assembly of the Comitia Centuriata. I sincerely thank Augur Brutus for his assistance.

We will now request new auspices for the following dates:

Start of meeting pending auspices will be April 30th with debate starting this day.

Voting to start May 6th.

Voting to end May 14th.

The meeting will continue to be held on this digital venue.

VALETE!

I like it that the Roman Republic seems to handle auspices in a meaningful way. Other groups seem always to have favourable auspices. How is this possible? Seeing some variation in response reassures me that the Gods are listening.

I have no inkling of what techniques are being practiced but would like to learn more. At the spiritual level, it seems to provide this group with meaningful direction. Heartwarming to see.
