Scrying For Beginners: Scrying Techniques
Scrying is the act of focusing on a fixed point while in a relaxed meditative state in order to induce visions. There are many different modes and methods of scrying for beginners to choose from. The focal point or scrying tool is usually an object with a shiny reflective surface such as a mirror, crystal, crystal ball, or a bowl of liquid. There are many different scrying techniques. It is even possible to use the sky for scrying.
The traditional and most popular method, and the best for method of scrying for beginners, involves using a reflective surface, usually a scrying mirror, in a dimly lit room. A scrying mirror is a special mirror that is made by painting one side of a glass pane black. Usually, scrying mirrors are consecrated or imbued with psychic energy so as to help facilitate the proper energies for visions. Scrying mirrors are also usually surrounded by a decorative frame that is inscribed with relevant mystical symbols or images.
An important thing to keep in mind is that, just like any other divining instrument, the scrying mirror is merely a tool or rather a focal point for your own energy and ability. Using a scrying tool such as a mirror is a good way to develop and strengthen your psychic abilities. The scrying mirror itself is of far less significance than the state of mind of the person scrying. If you have any negative emotions such as fear that have been left unchecked, then the visions that you have will readily reflect these.
One of the most important things about scrying for beginners to realize is that they are actually looking at their own energy that is being reflected back to them. This is true regardless of which scrying techniques that you are using. It doesn’t even matter if you are using a reflective surface or not. When you are scrying properly, you are looking into a deeper part of yourself. You are viewing your own energy. Indeed, this is actually true of any psychic ability.
Because you receive psychic information through your own energy, it is immensely important that you make sure that energy is calm, positive, still, and pure. At the very core of psychic development, the most crucial and vital step is acknowledging and releasing all of the wasted energy that is perpetuated by the ego and the left brain. By practicing and achieving meditative states on a daily basis you can find your own still point and awaken to the inner source that exists within you. Once you achieve this you can then apply any scrying techniques you choose with complete confidence.
Meditation and finding your inner calm along with releasing negative emotions not only helps with the information received through different scrying techniques. It also helps you to more accurately interpret the images or information that you receive while scrying. This is vitally important because how you react emotionally to what you receive while scrying, dramatically affects the scrying session.
Negative emotions and reactions can impact the formation and stream of information that you are getting while practicing your various scrying techniques. The act of scrying as well as any other form of psychic ability involves an interaction of energy on multiples levels including the emotional one. How you initially react to what you perceive greatly impacts the process and determines the outcome of the experience.
Scrying for beginners, as well as advanced psychics, can be a powerful and transforming experience. Regardless of which scrying techniques that you may choose, scrying is an excellent way to awaken yourself to other types of psychic ability. Practicing scrying and daily meditation can help you to realize your psychic potential to a much greater degree.

Great article! I’ve actually beem doing this for many years now (since I was around 13) but always thought it was called mirror gazing. After not finding a lot of info, I eventually stopped but now I think I’ll start up again. So, what exactly are you supposed to take away from seeing all the faces being superimposed (?) in front of your own? I know you said it is a reflection of the person doing the scrying but….is that it? Also, have you ever pointed a camera towards the mirror while doing this? I’m going to try the next time I do it.

There are a variety of alternate names for the different expressions of psychic ability. Often it depends on the culture or region. Scrying is the term that seems to be used the most but I have heard others as well.
Also the results of said practice also depend on the initial intention. If you were specifically intending to view your spiritual energy instead of future events or scenarios then that is what you might see. Or if you have no specific goal in mind you may view only different levels of your own energy.
During the first few moments of the scrying session there can be a shifting of your own reflection that represents the various dimensional levels of your own being. Though after several more moments of patient relaxed concentration you will notice that this shifting stops. Your own reflection will dissolve and other images will begin to appear.
The overall experience is unique to the one practicing, but in general the steps seem to occur in a similar fashion with almost everyone.
As far as using a camera. I am not sure a camera would be able to capture images that are actually dancing within your mind’s eye, but it may be possible to capture other psychic phenomena occurring during the session.
