Saturday scrying
Saturdays are the day for clearing out all the old energies, and so it is on Saturdays I highly recommend deep cleaning at least one room of your house and then cleansing it. However, today’s spell will be a self-reflection meditation, something else that is excellent to do if you want to continue being in tune with the days of the week.
Gather together a black scrying mirror and two candles in either black or deep violet, incense such as myhrr, patchouli, or others you prefer, as well as any cleansing tools you use. I have also found a favorite cup of meditative tea is nice to have but this is optional. Regardless, always begin by cleansing your space and lighting your incense. Set your mirror propped in front of you as you sit comfortably but straight-backed. On either side of your mirror light your candles. Make sure the room is dark, otherwise.
Begin breathing slowly and deeply, in and out through your nose. Your chest and shoulders do not move, your breath comes down to and up from your stomach. With each breath out, you sink further and further into a meditative state. Visualize yourself standing in front of a mirror as tall as you are. In the reflection, you see yourself surrounded by all the questions you have. Slowly, one by one, dismiss the least important of your worries***. They disappear in a puff of smoke and are removed from your reflection. All that remains is yourself and your single question- a problem you cannot seem to solve without help. Now visualize yourself pressing your hand into this mirror and stepping through, meeting this obstacle and confronting this problem. As you step through, and once you feel your connection to the spiritual, ethereal world has been established, open your eyes. Try to be careful not to let your gaze wander, but rather stare into the black mirror between the candles.
Remember the question you have meditated on. You may speak it if you wish or simply focus on it as you stare into the scrying mirror. After some time, you may begin to see shadows and shapes, cloud-like movement in the surface of the mirror. Try to see past these clouds, or try to sharpen your focus. Seek the visual images that apply to your question and attempt to interpret what you see.
Once you are satisfied you have found (or not found) the answers to the question you are seeking, thank the energies of the ethereal world. Close your eyes and breath. With each breath in, you rise further up from your meditative, relaxed state. Visualize that same tall mirror and see yourself stepping out of it. When you feel you are grounded, open your eyes again.
Mirror scrying and mirror divination take a lot of work and practice. It is, to me, one of the most difficult forms of divination and is always hard to get clear, definitive answers. If you feel unfulfilled after your first few attempts, keep trying. If you are determined, you will learn how best to scry through the black mirror.
***IMPORTANT: DO NOT attempt harm to either yourself or another being. This is merely a self-reflection ritual/meditation. When you imagine your obstacles and problems, if one of them is a human, you are merely dismissing the problem from your current meditative state, not dismissing it from your life.
