pyromancy

Pyromancy (from Greek ''pyros,'' “fire,” and ''manteia,'' “divination”) is the art of divination by means of fire.
==History of pyromancy==
Due to the importance of fire in society from the earliest of times, it is quite likely that pyromancy was one of the earlier forms of divination. It is said that in Greek society, virgins at the Temple of Athena in Athens regularly practiced pyromancy. It is also possible that followers of Hephaestus, the Greek god of fire and the forge, practiced pyromancy.
In Renaissance magic, pyromancy was classified as one of the seven "forbidden arts," along with necromancy, geomancy, aeromancy, hydromancy, chiromancy (palmistry), and spatulamancy (scapulimancy).〔Johannes Hartlieb (Munich, 1456) ''The Book of All Forbidden Arts''; quoted in Láng, p. 124.〕
