Wikipedia

  1. Tephromancy

    Spodomancy (also known as tephramancy and tephromancy) is a form of divination by examining cinders, soot, or ashes (Greek: σποδός spodós), particularly although not exclusively from a ritual sacrifice. Spodomancy has been practiced by numerous cultures, ancient and modern, across the globe. While many practitioners (particularly in Europe) have performed the ritual as part of a formal system of paranormal, religious, or ceremonial magic, many have done so as part of mere folkloric practice or superstition.

Chambers 20th Century Dictionary

  1. Tephromancy

    tef′rō-man-si, n. divination from the inspection of the ashes of a sacrifice.—Also Teph′ramancy. [Gr. tephra, ashes, manteia, divination.]
