Dans la série "Charmed" :
- There is nothing normal about this heat.
- Good morning, sunshine.
- Oh, save the quips and pass the caffeine. I have work to do.
- Are you gonna scry for Mother Nature and have a Wiccan word with her?
- Okay, you're way too perky, all right? And you're frightening me. I'm just saying.
- So you think this weather's demonic?
- I don't know, there's just something weird. I keep waking up all week long with these fiery dreams. What am I supposed to think?

J'ai trouvé cette phrase sur le web :
If it becomes an issue, I suppose we could scry for him; that is if he doesn't have some sort of anti-scrying mojo on him. Or he's not dead.

and good luck if you're going to translate that line:
(While Phoebe tries to scry for Leo and talks with Drake)
Drake: "Come on, don't scry for me Argentina."
C'est dans l'épisode "Seven Year Witch" (http://www.angelfire.com/magic2/notjustcharmed/)

Rachel Vanarsdall
: thought it was a typo, but it has lots of hits (many re: Charmed). According to "www.thepowerofcharmed.com/dictionaryn-t.htm" scrying means: "A form of divination using a crystal and a map. It allows a person to locate a person or object."

: Invoquer serait plus... "évocateur" ! Mais je ne proposerai pas à votre place, ce serait malhonnête.

Mmm, pas facile ce terme. En fait c'est l'opération qui consiste à regarder dans une boule de cristal ou une bassine d'eau froide pour observer des lieux, des personnes lointaines ou l'avenir. Pierre, licencié ès sorcellerie :-)
