Augury

From PathfinderWiki
This article covers a form of predicting the future. For the spell, see augury (spell).
The Cosmic Caravan is used by astrologers to predict the future.

Practitioners of the divinatory art of augury attempt to derive knowledge of future events from natural circumstances in the present. Forms of augury include astrology1 and the divine magic spell of the same name.2 Augury, like all forms of prediction in the Age of Lost Omens, is fallible.

Followers of certain gods, such as Desna, are sometimes able to enhance their augury through divine intervention.3 Certain magic items, such as the idol of the eye4 and Pharasmin spiral tiles, can enhance feats of augury.5
