So what is scrying?

 Scrying is an ancient practise,  a form of divination which requires the 'gazer' or 'seer' to enter a trance like state by gazing into a magic mirror or perhaps a bowl of water, some may use a cauldron, others prefer to use a special crystal or a simple bowl painted black inside and filled with water, there are several ways to scry and many tools to use.

 One of the popular ways to scry is to use a 'magic mirror' or a crystal ball because of the properties and energies associated with the stone or crystal.

Obsidian is popular due to Obsidians excellent grounding and protective properties.

Obsidian as a stone can help you connect with your 'inner warrior'.

Scrying using a black mirror or black surface helps to prevent distractions and helps to focus.

Important!  IOur scrying mirrors are not black because they have anything to do with black magic! 

Black is a colour or 'non-colour' which is particularly useful in meditation techniques as black is the absence of light, the darkness of the mirror enables the user to focus deeply on meditating without distraction.

There should be no distractions whilst attempting scrying, the scryer should be relaxed and centred, calm and feel safe. Attempt scrying only when feeling well, positive and alert, not when feeling tired or run down.

Scrying using a black mirror helps with meditation by opening the scryer to his/her subconcious. Scrying can also be used for inspiring innate creativity perhaps by helping to spark the mind with sudden flashes of inspiration and ideas, by emptying the mind and allowing thoughts, feelings and ideas or images to appear. You may find that scrying can help solve problems or help to make decisions.

It is advisable to use a protection method before scrying as you are essentially entering the astral plane, you may wish to cast a circle if you follow a pagan path, you may wish to visualise an unpenetrable bubble of pure white light that completely surrounds you or some may like to call upon their guides to protect them. Grounding is also important, also known as centering. There are several methods to ground yourself. Everyone is different so find a way that feels right for you. What is important is that you feel completely protected.

NB: Ground yourself afterwards aswell. Eat or drink something small such as a cup of tea and a biscuit -grounding is 'coming back down to earth'

It is advisable to read up on methods and purposes of scrying with a mirror before undertaking it . The Magic Mirror should be cleared before using it for the first time and kept in a pouch or soft cloth when not in use. Good methods of clearing are, smudging with incense or smudge sticks, leaving the mirror exposed to moonlight,  holding the mirror under clear running water, try holding in the hands while willing away any negativity, imagine strongly the mirror being filled with pure white light.  Again there are several methods to clear the mirror, what is important is that it feels right for you.
