Aeromancy

Aeromancy is a form of divination that aims to predict the future by studying phenomena and variations in the air. de Plancy, J. C., (1863). Dictionnaire Infernal. 6ed. pg.8Spence, L. (1920). An Encyclopædia of Occultism. 2 ed. pg. 4
A basic form of aeromancy is saying that a person of great importance will die shortly after a comet is seen. There is much overlap between aeromancy and teratoscopy.
According to François de la Tour Blanche, aeromancy tells the future by making spectres appear in the air, or by using demons to represent future events in clouds, in a similar way to how a magic lantern works. He specifically says that predicting the future using thunder and lightning is not aeromancy, but augury, and that the parts of the sky and planets is astrology, not aeromancy.
