U&T Question

Is this a legal play?

End my turn with Gifts active. Begin my next turn, D3. Put a High Priest in play. Activate U&T, look at their hand and reactivate Gifts?

My question arises from the rule about re-activating an artifact in the same phase it was deactivated.
Just one more thing...

You are not using your artifact activation to reactivate the same artifact, you are using a special ability.  Legal play.

The main thing you aren't supposed to be able to do would be something like have Covenant with Death, deactivate it, play a bunch of territory-class enhancements, and then straight up reactivate it.  However, Urim and Thummim has a special ability that allows you to activate an artifact, which can be any artifact you have available.  The same is true of The Meal in Emmaus, which allows you to activate a different artifact.

U+T is just silly, yo.

Cool, that's how I have been playing it, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't violating anything to do so.
