Oneiric Oneiros Oneiromancy

Relating to, or suggestive of dreams. It comes from the Greek word oneiros meaning to dream. Oneiromancy means the attempt to predict the future through interpretation of dreams. The addition of the suffix ‘mancy’ gives the meaning of prediction, as can been seen in such words as necromancy.
