Pyromancy (Fire)

Another form of scrying, divination by fire, or pyromancy. Many diviners find it easier than, say, crystal-scrying, due to the natural, relaxed, and cozy state induced by the presence of warm fire.

Fire diviners use three separate elements to interpret future events: visions seen in the fire itself, those discerned in the smoke, and, finally, visions seen in the ash. Others are still another persuasion swear by the accuracy of those shapes seen hovering in the chimney and grate corners, behind the fire itself.

There are those who will object~insisting that all fires are yellow and orange~ yet anyone who has attempted fire-scrying knows that there are dimensions of color in flame and smoke that go far beyond that kind of protest. Some fire-scryers even insist that a fire gives one the added perspective of seeing oneself in the visions provided by the flames.
