Catoptromancy was a method of Divination which used mirrors to see future events and gain other insights.[1][2] The practice of catoptromancy included the use of specialised rooms called psychomanteums and scrying mirrors.[2][3]
Janus Galloglass, a mirror shop in Diagon Alley North Side, sold catoptromancy implements.[2]
