When people start their divination journey, most of the times they start out with oracle or tarot. These are the most common divination techniques - and those, that have a good structure, as each card has a fixed basic meaning.
But at one point on your journey, you might hear or read the word scrying.
I could start out with all the basics around scrying now, but just let me give you a short definition of it:
Scrying is basically an intuitional way of divination, where you use a surface or element to see forms and shapes, that you gonna have to interpret.
Easy, right?
And that is the problem. When reading this definition, you have clear ideas on how scrying should look like and how to it should work. You maybe gonna expect to see full HD pictures or clear shapes. Yay!
But uhm. Nah. Sorry. Grab that expectation, walk to the trash bin and throw your expectations away.
Done that? Perfect! Now let's move to what you can await in this tumblr for next weeks!
About this series:
This series shall help the readers to understand, what scrying with a mirror (or a crystal ball) can look like.
This series gonna consist of different around 1-3 minute readings about small parts of the how to do - and maybe on how to DIY one yourself!
I also might add links to other helpful tumblr and youtube posts to get a deeper understanding of different basics.
This series is about >my< experiences. Yours can look truly different to mine!
Having said that, I want to give a short reminder: while this method definetely has a lot of sources, my main sources are my experience and a few youtube videos. Absolutely fine for me, but I am sure, I never invented the wheel anew.
I am a chaos witch. For me, that means to get a lot of trial and error. Especially around divination, I happen to go into stuff without reading about the stuff for weeks. I am just trying it out, facing a problem, ban the method for a few days and then find out my problem.
There are awesome sources. Absolutely. But man, my brain wants that trial and error.
But that also leads to not many sources besides my own experience. And while I absolutely did my job on learning about the safety with a mirror, I forgot some of the ressources. Oopsie. But for real, guys:
do your research on proper protection! Just do it.
I do have aphantasia (sometimes less, sometimes worse), so people with that condition might have fun with this series. We all are in the same boat, and small appetizer here: scrying is more than seeing. So even those with the worst aphantasia could have a good result with scrying.
I hope, some gonna follow me on that journey. Feel free to always comment, criticize or give any other feedback!
heyyyyy so banescales came out and one of my babies came out great.
the other........ if anyone needs a challenge, i think he’s unsalvageable beyond making him all basic. the best we got with friends was leaning fully into how much of a stinky monster he is and making him a cloud of farts.
