Last Sunday, I posted a reel with some basics on scrying using an obsidian mirror. 🧿🌌 Because repetition is the mother of wisdom, here are some more in-depth tips to go with it: 1. The right lighting: Make sure the lighting in your scrying space is dim but not too dark. Candlelight 🕯️ or a dim lamp can provide the right level of illumination. 2. Begin with a clear mind: Take a few deep breaths and try to clear your mind of any distractions or worries. This will help you focus. 3. Placement of the mirror: Place the obsidian mirror in front of you at a comfortable distance. You can hold it up to your face or place it on a stand. 4. Focus on the surface: Gaze into the surface of the mirror without focusing on any one point. I call this the soft gaze. you can also try to focus your gaze slightly behind the surface. Allow your eyes to relax and your mind to wander. Blink as needed. 5. Observe any shapes or patterns: You may begin to see shapes or patterns in the mirror or in your mind 🧿, such as clouds, colors, or images. Observe them without trying to interpret them. 6. Practice regularly: Like any other skill, scrying takes practice. Try to make it a regular part of your practice. With practice, you may develop a stronger connection with the mirror and gain more insight from your scrying sessions. 🔮💫 7. Cleanse the mirror: It's important to cleanse your obsidian mirror regularly to remove any negative energy or residue that may have accumulated. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #scrying #obsidianmirror #magictips #spiritualawakening #divination #crystalmagic #magicalpractice #intuition #mysticism #witchcraft #occult #witchesofinstagram #witchy #witchyvibes #magick #witchcraftspells #beginnerwitch https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpkip7ztlDN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
