Lampadomancy is a form of divination involving divinating the flame of a lamp.
It was good fortune if the flame had a single point.
However two points is a sign of bad luck.
A flame that bent may indicate illness and sparks indicated news.
Sudden extinction of a flame was considered a very bad omen.
