Uromancy is a form of divination, by reading the bubbles in urine that form when urinating in a pot.

Its origin can be found in medicine, where examination of urine is used as a diagnostic tool. As with many forms of divination, the original basis is extrapolated and exaggerated to the extent that it is said that the urine does not only give indications of a person's health, but also foretells the future.

The suffix mancy originates from the ancient Greek word manteia, which means divination.
