  • You know, I wonder if lead crystal would be better than plain ol' glass. I have an old 80s chandelier with 4 x 7" crystal squares...

    Also, Home Depot has spray paint cans of basic shades, including matte black for 89 cents. Would spraying them be okay?

    Can you leave a message w/the answer on my chatbox or website @ sickitten com? Thanks.

  • can i gaze at the normal mirror like those ones in bathroom? cause i tried and i saw dark mist, i think it worked ? but then i quickly walked away lol

  • @Sinderking actually yes, any reflective surface can be used for scrying (water for instance etc). Some use fire to do scrying as well. I would suggest that if you do choose to use a regular mirror that you cleanse it and bless it first.

  • can i just scry normal mirror like ones in the bathroom? thanks.

  • I tried painting on the acrylic onto the glass, left it until the night then put on another coat but then it started lifting and wouldnt stay smooth on the glass. i had to peel it off what did i do wrong?

  • @laurenshakey Hmmm, not too sure. I've never had that problem before. Perhaps try spraypaint? I'm not a fan of aerosols but maybe it would work better? Keep me posted? Maybe the brush you used caused that? Or the brand of paint? Was the glass totally clean and dry prior to painting it? Was it humid in your home when you made it? Keep me posted on how things turn out, hopefully you can resolve the issue. I've never encountered that problem b4.

  • thanks now i can have my own mirror to use

  • can you use flat black paint or do you need glossy black paint? i wanna make one, i use a black scying bowel with water

  • drthvadrpsp24, I didn't and still don't have a Goddess or God that I follow. I'm eclectic and work with various deities. I think that when it is meant to have one that stands out, it will be made known...it may be the same with you. Let them come to you. or, you can ask for signs to appear to you in your dreams or in the nature around you. You can also think about what things or animals that you heavily are drawn to. For example, if you are heavily drawn to cats, the Bast may be your best bet.

  • Do you have to believe that the pagan gods and goddesses exist to become pagan?

  • thanks for the vid.

  • Enjoyed your video..I use water myself for Scrying,i find im more comfortable with it.

  • just wondering, what god and goddess do you follow under. i am really interested in pursuing Wicca, but i do not know which god/goddess to follow.

  • I work alot with more of the primordial aspects of divinity now. I've also worked with the Greek/Roman pantheon, the Celtic and Germanic and even Asian (Kwan Yin). In the beginning I didn't mix pantheons, it wasn't until I was further along in my path that I felt comfortable doing so. Not everyone agrees on that matter, to each their own. Why not research some pantheons and see which god forms call out to you? Then take it from there ;)

  • Some ppl don't like to limit Divinity to specific godforms such as Zeus, Diana, Odin, Freya etc but instead will simply call on Goddess and God, etc, that is a personal choice. No person can have faith or believe for you and its your relationship to Divinity that counts, not what labels we as people give them ;) Blessings to you on your journey )O(

  • Wicca follows nature in general...for the divinity they follow The Triple Goddess and the Horned God!!!

  • I bought the frame. I put 1 drop of Honeysuckle oil and 1 drop of Psychic Vision oil into the paint and painted with intent. I love it !

    Plus, I bought a small 2 X 3 inch mini frame & made that into a scrying mirror too. I am going to carry that one in my purse so I can have my scrying mirror wherever I go.

    WALMART

    Large frame $2.50

    Mini frame $1.50

    Acrylic Paint $0.97

    All for less than $5.00.

    Just think I was going to buy a black mirror for $35.00. Thanks Crafty ! xBBx

  • Cool, saved yourself a few bucks plus you had the joy of creating your own magickal tool, money can't buy that ;)

  • why do you paint with a brush rather than using spray paint from a can? any reason not to use spray paint?

  • I dont like aerosols, bad for enviro

  • The video is very helpgul thank you.

  • my faveorite scrying tool is a crystal ball. :) i cant do tarot very well.. :( but i have not tried a mirror yet....i think ill try ittttt.

  • Why don't you simply buy an obsidian mirror?

  • there aren't any around here :( I also like to make as many of my own tools as possible)

  • omg thank you i was trying how to make one.

  • your welcome :)

  • lol im so confused, why do you use a mirror and why do you paint it black? I've heard of people scrying on paper and wood, but not on black painted mirrors. Srry the only divination tool I use is runes and I'd like to try scrying, thanx so much! :)

    Blessed be )O(

  • many traditions have implemented black mirrors as scrying tools for divination, they are quite easy to make and work quite well. Even in ancient greko-roman times, scrying mirrors were used to communite with the dead etc. some ppl will use a cauldron or a black bowl as well (filled with water or ink) to scry (works the same as teh mirror method). There's always been hints of mirror magick throughout time...mirror mirror on the wall, tell me who is the fairest of them all... ;)

  • Those many traditions by doing so implemented a waste of time because there's no way a living breathing person would communicate with a dead one, Even less for a dead one to communicate with a living breathing person. Why?, because when you died, that's it, that's the end of your existence.

    If you are dead, you're dead, if you are alive after dying, then death is not death but something else other than the true meaning.

    Sad but true!.

  • You are entitled to your own opinion. I view things differently than you. Life your own truth and I shall live mine :)

  • I agree on being entitled to my own opinion just like I also agree that you're entitled to view things differently than me or anyone else.

    Vive y deja vivir :)

  • Hi,

    I don't have a clue why I ended up here in the first place about a week ago, but I have a concern and somehow I feel you may be of help.

    To make it short, I just happened to download several photos from my digital camera into my pc and one photo has what it appeared to be a ghost.

    I wonder if you would like to view it and let me know what is going on.

    My Brother told me many times that at home there's got to be a ghost.

    How can I show you that photo?.

  • It could be a spirit. Why don't you post it on youtube?

  • I must not live in the same universe as you because I have definitely communicated with them.

  • bless it be,

    I am so interested in your work and thanks for making this available for us to see. I hope things are going better with you now after hearing about the death that was around you and I hope Dalton is fine.

  • Thank you :) And Dalton is doing great :)

  • Question, please help, what is this spell, ritual for?

  • This isn't s spell, just a form of divination, a form of scrying :)

  • i was lead to believe rose essential oil was for Hathor mirror magic. Have you heard of this? Does the mirror still need to be paint black?

  • It was my understanding the original Hathor mirrors were made of bronze or silver and that roses were sacred to her. I have done successful scrying with regular mirrors. It might be something you may wish to check out :)

  • where is the second part?

    do rose essential oil?

    how do you charge the mirror if there is no fall moon

  • if you look in my video list, you'll find a video called "Demo on making a scrying mirror" the audio quality is horrible though :( There are different ways to charge the mirror even if there is no full moon. Some ppl bury the mirror in earth for a certian length of time, some ppl use various visualization techniques etc. You could use rose essential oil if you want :)

  • I'm very intrested in trying this technique, its the first i've heard of it. Thank you for sharing, I enjoyed your video. Best to you in the future, Blessed be!

  • thanks crimson :)

  • Should it be a glossy acrylic paint or flat? I found a cool picture frame with glass cover and I'm going to follow your instructions. I'll send you the video of the results :-)

    Blessed Be!

  • you could try both and see which one u like best :)

  • Is you a Canadian?

  • I am Canadian, my accest gives me away eh :P

  • Do you only use small mirrors for scrying?

    Have you tried much larger mirrors like say a few feet across? Are you doing any evocations?

    Do you keep the mirrors in complete darkness and in their own dedicated housing?

  • I've used a regular dresser mirror (3 feet by 5 feet) for scrying with great results. As for my black mirrors, i keep them covered in cloth. You can try making a larger black mirror if you want, I'd love to but don't have the space at the moment :) You can keep it in its own housing if you have the space. Mine are just wrapped in black velet.

  • how do you scry? what should you expect?

  • sometimes i smudge first and sit quietly, relax, then i let my eyes unfocus a bit and just wait for the images to appear.

  • Huug!, you rock ,...thanks!

  • thanks, you rock too!! :)

  • spray paint makes a more even look :-)

  • I tend to stay away from aerosols but whatever floats your boat :)

  • I know its better for the envioment but for some reason regular paints and craft paints bother my skin. Even with gloves I manage to get it one me! LOL

  • my mom has a thing like that. she uses it for the yard. it HAD a stand..but it broke so we put it on our old bird bath.

  • yeah i've seen those garden globes around, if one could find a clear one and then paint the inside black, it would likely work just as well.

  • yea

    um i have no clue what witch craft is and if it actually works

    half of the stuff doesnt really make any since

    / goddesses and all that/ i mean if they really existed and had the power ''witches''/ gods

    say they did then how come they didnt help when people were dying of being accused of being witches .

  • wtf is this shit, god will smite thee for this crap

  • lol my Goddess gave birth to your god :P Feel free to take a flying leap off the nearest bridge ;)

  • LOL. Only if this God is Christ... If matermanator is Jewish.. then that might not apply.

    :p

  • lol

  • lol well if he were jewish, then perhaps the Divine Mother known as Chochmah (Wisdom) who was the co-creatrix and consort of YHVH might have more meaning for him ;) Or perhaps hebrew/jewish Goddesses Asherah & Shechina might tickle his fancy :P

  • Actually what the papists and fundies don't want to to know is this Jewish faith has always held that the Holy Spirit is feminine always has been always will be. Shecaniah is the Hebrew word . Definitely feminine!

    So Mote It Be!

  • Thanks so much for sharing! :)

  • I hear you have to paint it in under a full moon, and magnatize it (put it in a fire and send sound waves through it for a minute). It looked like a reliable source, but I'm unsure. Is it true?

  • If that's something you wish to try, that is up to you. Personally I see no need to put the mirror in a fire etc, as the glass could crack etc but that choice is yours :)

  • Wondering what the ultimate goal of scrying is...heard a lot of apothecaries used to practice it, good informative video though thanks.

  • Its another form of divination :) Glad u liked the vid :)

  • Hi, I am an art student and needed mirrors for a project. The scrying mirror worked well and saved me a lot of money. It also looked much better. Blue light works wonderful on a black mirrow. Thank you for your help. If I can get my hands on a globe I would like to try that.

    Jackie S.

  • Hi Jackie, glad you found the vid informative. Brightest Blessings )O(

  • how do you use them

  • I think John Dee got all of his scrying stuff at walmart too,hahaha

  • You aren't pagan if you don't know how to improvise LOL :P

  • a blue glass/crystal bowl works best in my opinion. it needs to be infused with the power of the east wind and pure well/stream water. and you'll need to use that same water source to fill it up. it might be hard to make but it will never show a false futre. only bad thing is that you must matain constant meditative state while using it. otherwise it will show you what it wants to see not what you want.

  • Thanks for sharing :)

  • It is used for divination purposes, similar to that of a crystal ball, fire gazing etc

  • can a scrying mirror be a regular reflective or does it have to be black ?

  • The only scrying mirrors I've used have always been black. However, any reflective surface should work. I've used polished obsideon (but it was black) with great results. If you wish 2 use a regular mirror, choose one that will only b used for scrying & treat it as u would a black scrying mirror (don't use it for mundane purposes). Make sure to cleanse & bless it regularly.

  • depends what you looken at i saw some images in my drum the last full moon trance state

  • many things can be used for scrying...a black mirror is just example...others include black obsideon, water, fire etc and in your case a drum ;)  Brightest Blessings

  • You're a genius!

  • you poor broke witches need a warlock in your life...

  • neechi please *rolls eyes* is that the best you could do? lol

  • you got very black eyes. I like taht. why dont you just use spray paint for a better finish.

  • thanks :) I prefer not using aerosol products, hence no spray paint. It's just a personal choice, use what you wish :)

  • I have no idea of your power of 'seeing' but I can see alot of little things all the time, as well as large really creepy ugly things. I have seen things come in and out of mirrors, i've also seen spirits struggle to get out, until some human touches the mirror. This releses energy into the mirror, just enough for the struggling spirit to come out..I have seen about 50 or so different spirits come out of mirrors, believe it or not, its true.

  • Very interesting. I've seen a variety of things in my mirrors but have not had any negative experiences, mine are blessed & washed on a regular basis with a strong protective tincture.

  • Regular mirrors are really bad yes..as they have not been blessed or charge with solar or luner energys. Also depending on the Day, and astrological time of creation will also dictate certain energys and qualitys of the mirror....cheeky, mabe,probably. well educated and practiced..yes.

  • LOL you are an interesting soul you know that? And yes, depending on when the mirror is made etc, could also impart upon it specific type of energies.

  • Are you going to metion to people that 'black mirrors' are also windows, that entitys and demons and malevanent spirits can come through...or was that going to be in the next episode? LOL Sorry cound not resist, do you not think that first safe guards and warning should be inplace and made first befor showing, juviniles, and noobs how to use the mirror?

  • That would depend on one's belief, some ppl don't believe in all evil entities such as demons and so forth. That's where blessing it comes in. Alot of things can act as portals, regular mirros for example. You are a cheeky one aren't ya?! LOL It's all good, perhaps someday when you don't feel so threatened by me, you'll unblock me haha jk had to sneak that one in there :P Brightest Blessings Rob.

  • No no your mistaken, your personal 'belief' or understanding is neither here nor there, as your opinion does not waver the truth. The Truth is black mirrors ARE a window, wether you belief in the good and Bad, the balance or light and dark or not..just cause you cant see the wind does not meen it's not there. Whether you belief in melevenent spirts or not, they WILL come through it, there are things more powerful than your blessings.

  • I didn't say I didn't believe, I said some ppl don't believe in such things. I guess my black mirrors are very well protected as I haven't experienced such negativity coming through ;)

  • whether one belives in evil entities or not does not take from the 'fact' that they ARE real. Some of us, like myself can see them. Some can not. Either way belief in them is not required for them to exsist. matter of fact it helps their cause if you don't believe in them...its only the biggest lie ever told "The 'Devil' Convincing the world he doesn't exsist"

  • When I made my black mirror, I used black spray paint, clovers quickly and evenly, one coat. PS: I was only buggen about the one book thing, I have several, but I also have small -scrapish type notebook size ones as well. Its not size or Quantity, it's Quality of content right :)?

  • exactly rob, it's definately quality that counts, not quantity...in some cases size doesn't matter,,,and in other cases, it does matter lol :P haha sorry, just being cheeky. Have a good one.

  • :) lol cheeky

  • Glad y'all enjoyed it :) The round globe is so near & dear 2 my heart (as I said in the vid, inherited it from my Auntie). I have yet to find any other globes that are similar. Maybe if one dismantled a snowglobe? Anyways, hope you keep me informed on how it works out for ya! Much love, )O(

  • Yes, I must agree with Glanecia on this one!

  • That is a good idea! oooo, I'm so gonna try it.

  • oohhh a black mirror i can not look in to them i get to much crap lol

  • What is also good to use is the glass domed face from a cheap-y wall clock, if you paint the convex bit. I love the snow-globe idea. I shall be looking out for one of those! Bright blessings

  • Most awesome idea ;) Blessed Be )O(
