People have been using crystal balls for scrying and divination for thousands of years. These can be a very useful tool for communicating with our Demons, our subconscious, and our higher selves.

Selecting a Crystal Ball to Purchase:

The best material for crystal balls is a crystal that is either glassy, opaque, transparent, or has natural cloudiness. This depends on your preference. Regardless, it needs to have a smooth and polished finish.

Different crystals have different energy, making it important to select one that resonates well with you. You can go to a crystal store and get a feel for the energy, or purchase online. You should be able to find one for USD $10 to $20.

I would recommend approximately 8cm (about 3 inches) diameter. Smaller can work too, such as 5cm (2 inches). Larger ones can be too distracting for beginners to work with because of too much surface area to focus on properly.

I personally recommend white selenite or quartz. For those of you with experience with crystals, go with what you know is best for you. Beryl was traditionally used for crystal balls but it is very expensive now. If you select selenite be careful to never get it wet because it dissolves in water. Selenite is of lunar energy so it charges well with Moonlight.

Selenite is cloudy and glassy, and glows with light. If you have a small lamp (like rock salt lamp) or a candle nearby, the light will glow through parts of the sphere, adding to the hypnotic effect as you turn it in your hands. Doing this will help you get into a meditative state.

Selenite when carved into a sphere has an optical effect: it has a see-through axis. If you have a black (or any other dark color) piece of cloth and hold the sphere over it with the axis aligned between you and the back cloth, it eerily looks like an eyeball. Hold it like this, gaze into it, and the white part will fade to black clouds, and then it will all fade to white clouds. This might happen a few times as you settle into trance.

Caring for Your Crystal Ball:

Treat your crystal ball with respect. Be careful to avoid scratching it. Keep it wrapped in silk to keep its energies within it. If you can’t get silk then another cloth will do, any cloth you feel drawn to or happen to have available as long as it is clean and only used for your crystal ball. If you need to physically clean your crystal ball, you can gently rub it with a dry cloth, for example microfiber cloth.

Charging Your Crystal Ball:

To charge your crystal ball, follow the same instructions on the JoS for charging a black mirror: https://satanisgod.org/www.angelfire.com/empire/serpentis666/Black_Mirror.html

There will be a Full Moon in Cancer on December 26. It is a Tuesday, but the planetary day is irrelevant; it is the Moon that matters for this. If you aren’t able to buy one by that date then you can buy one later and charge it at any Full or Waxing Moon in Cancer, Pisces, or Taurus.

Using Your Crystal Ball:

Day or night, doesn’t matter, but dimly lit is preferable. You will need enough light to see clouds form in the crystal ball. You might need to adjust the lighting in your room so any lights don’t reflect distracting bright spots on your crystal ball. You can have multiple candles around or a lamp turned on. Experiment and see what lighting you prefer, what your individual style will become.

Sit comfortably. Make sure your hands are clean and dry as you will need to touch your crystal ball.

If your crystal ball is large and sits on a stand/holder, make sure it is close enough to where you are sitting, no further away than 18 inches.

If yours does not have a stand/holder, you can have it on your lap. You can hold it with your hands but make sure your fingers do not show through the back as that can be distracting. A dark color of cloth behind or under it will help with the coloring, and you can hold the sides of the crystal ball with your hands.

Prepare yourself by doing breathing exercises or any meditation you want.

After the above is completed and you feel comfortable to begin:

-Place your hands on the crystal ball if it is on a stand, or hold it if it is in your lap. Make a physical connection to it. With practice, or even from the first time, you will feel a tingly sensation in your palms and fingers.

-State your question or intention. When doing this during a Demon summoning, ask to see the Demon in your crystal ball.

-Look at the different parts of the crystal ball with a soft focus. This begins a mild hypnotic effect. If it is not on a stand you can turn it around in your hands. After a few moments, you can then hold it steady.

-Feel your mind entering the crystal ball. Your gaze enters into the crystal ball. You can relax your gaze further to look into the back of the crystal ball, or even through and past it, if this works better for you.

-Clouds will begin to form. Your entire crystal ball might turn to white clouds, then to dark clouds, and perhaps repeat this multiple times. Let it happen, observe it. Don’t force anything. If it changes color, let it. If lines, shapes, shadows, symbols, or colors appear, let them.

-State your question or intention again. Then, allow yourself to fall into a deeper trance state. Continue gazing into your crystal ball and see what appears.

Don’t expect anything to actively happen. Scrying through your crystal ball is passive and intuitive.

You will develop your own technique with practice. You will discover for yourself how it works for you and how you see with it, because this is a part of advancement and learning.

If nothing happens for the first few times, this is fine. You are developing the relationship with your crystal ball for now and opening your abilities. It’s like training a muscle, it takes consistent practice.

When you are starting out, only do this for about 5 minutes at a time. It can be draining or even cause eye strain. As you become adept, you can go for however long you are comfortable doing so.
