Today’s word was “sciomancy”, meaning ‘Divination through communication with the spirits of the dead. Also: divination by means of shadows’, (OED). And I’m guessing that a cathedral is as good as place as any for sciomancy, albeit rather a selective one, in terms of with which dead spirits communication occurs.
Day #357 of a 365 project, where the daily pic is informed by the OED word of the day.
