Definition
A person who practices divination; one who attempts to divine or predict future events through supernatural means.
Etymology
From Latin 'divinare' plus the agent suffix '-er' (one who does something), possibly influenced by French -iste variants.
Kelly Says
The term 'divinister' is extremely rare in English, but it shows how the same root word spawns different occupational titles across languages and time periods.
