Alomancy (from
Greek halo, 'salt', and manteia, divination), also called Adromancy, ydromancie, idromancie, and halomancy, is an ancient form of
divination. Similar to many other forms of divination, the diviner casts
salt crystals into the air and interprets the patterns as it falls to the ground or travels through the air. The diviner can also interpret patterns formed from the residue of a salt
solution as it evaporates in the bowl. The exact interpretations are unknown, but it probably follows a similar method to
aleuromancy.
