pyromancy
Pyromancy is a form of divination that involves interpreting the behavior of fire to gain insights or predict the future. Practitioners, known as pyromancers, observe flames, smoke, and the way fire interacts with its surroundings. This ancient practice has roots in various cultures and is often associated with rituals and spiritual beliefs.
Historically, pyromancy has been used in different contexts, from ancient Greece to China. It is sometimes linked to other forms of divination, such as scrying, where practitioners use reflective surfaces to gain visions. While not widely practiced today, pyromancy remains a fascinating aspect of historical mysticism.
