scrying

Scrying is when you gaze into something for a prophetic answer as some sort of image, sort of like an oracle. The object is usually reflective, like water or a black mirrow, a common one is the crystal ball. A lot of people also like to use fire to scry, I have never tried it that way, at least not yet. First thing you need to do it get soem sort of object that will act as your focal point, and this can be a crystal ball, a mirror, etc. My personal favorite is the black mirror, and if you don't have enough money to buy one then you can do what I did. Get a picture frame and remove the glass. Make sure that it is clean first and then take a can of flat black spray paint and paint the back side of the glass. Once it is dry then place the glass back into the frame with the paint facing away from the front and you are done! If you want a crystal ball or a black crystal ball then you can order one online if you can't find a new age shop that sells them. If you don't have the supplies to make or buy any of these then you can use just a bowl of water and some black ink, you don't even have to use ink, it can just be a bowl of water, or a mirror. The excersie is about focusing on something until you get an answer. This can take up to months to master, some people might find it very easy and master it in a few days. If you feel that you are never going to get answers then just keep trying, you have to really focus! If you are using a reflective surface, you can be sure that you are getting progress once your reflection fades and you are just staring at a blank plane. The first step is to clear your mind and once done so then you can begin your scrying. Gaze into your object and try to look past it, like a portal into a further realm, a realm where your anbswers lie. Now, I would recommend getting comfortable because it could be a while before you get any results, and sometimes you won't. It is all in your abilities. Like I said, for some people this will be easier than for others, but even if it takes you a year, that doesn't mean that you are bad at it, it just means that you are as in touch with your spiritual side, and it is perfectly natural!
