Hydromancy
Hydromancy is a form of divination that involves interpreting the patterns and movements of water to gain insights or predict future events. Practitioners, known as hydromancers, may use various water sources, such as rivers, lakes, or even bowls of water, to observe changes in the water's surface, color, or flow. This practice has roots in ancient cultures and is often associated with other forms of divination.
Historically, hydromancy has been linked to various spiritual and religious traditions, including ancient Greece and Egyptian mythology. It is sometimes considered a subset of scrying, which involves gazing into reflective surfaces to receive visions or messages. While not widely practiced today, hydromancy remains a fascinating aspect of historical divination methods.
