2- Create and Alter honoring Lilith: Use black and red, candles, incense, mirrors, plants, items from the symbols list.
3- Mirror Scrying: Lilith loves mirrors, so mirror scrying is a perfect way to connect with Lilith. Have a dedicated mirror for Lilith. There are superstations about women who look into a mirror for too long and end up being possessed by Lilith’s spirit, so just be aware and you can look into that if you are interested. I feel dedicating the mirror and looking into it for Lilith’s help is not the same thing as “Looking into a mirror”
