| Scrying & Divination Mugwort Make an infusion tea of mugwort. Do not boil the herb. Instead, boil water in a non-metal container, turn off heat, add the dried or fresh herb. Stir, cover with lid, and steep for at least thirty minutes. Stir the infusion several times. Strain, then either use or store in a glass container with lid in the refridgerator. This is an excellent wash for cleaning magick mirrors, crystals, crystal balls, and crystal pyramids. Witches choose the full moon as the best time to consecrate a magick mirror because moonlight has the effect of charging it with power. When not in use, wrap your mirror in a black velvet or silk cloth, keep it in a special box away from the light. Third Eye Ritual Perform this ritual three days before the full moon. Preferably when the moon is in the sign of Cancer, Pisces, or Scorpio. Begin by brewing a strong tea made from yarrow or mugwort. Light thirteen purple votive candles to help attract psychic influence. Drink tea, stare into magick mirror, crystal ball, or pyramid and chant three times: "I invoke thee, O Asariel, Archangel of Neptune And Ruler of clairvoyant powers. I ask thee now to open my Third eye And show me the hidden light. Let me see the future. Let me see the past. Let me perceive the divine Kingdoms of the unkown. Let me understand the wisdom Of the mighty universe. So mote it be!" After chanting, relax, breathe slowly, concentrate on opening your third eye. Do not allow negative thoughts to enter. Psychic Spell Fill a small purple bag (preferably with drawstrings) with as many of the following herbs as you can: mugwort acacia honeysuckle peppermint rosemary thyme yarrow cloves dandelion lilac lavender calendala Tie the bag shut. Use a dark violet marker to draw an eye on the front of the bag. Rub the bag on your forehead whenever performing divination or needing psychic sight. Sleep with it under your pillow every night. Increase Psychic Vision Burn some dried mugwort as a magickal incense while scrying. Brewed as a tea, often with lemon balm, mugwort can be consumed to aid divination, meditation, and all forms of psychic divination. Rosemary Divination Take a sprig of rosemary, ask a yes/no question seven times. Then pluck a leaf off of the sprig while saying yes, do it again while saying no. Continue to alternate until the sprig is bare. The last leaf you pluck shall reveal your answer. Hair Divination Throw some hair into a fire. It is said to be a sign of long life if the hair flames vigorously. It is said to be an omen of ill health if it simply smolders away. Water Divination Holding a stone, sit in front of a bowl of water. As a question with a yes/no answer. Drop the stone into the water. Carefully count the ripple that it makes. If there is an even amount of ripples (2, 4, 6, 8, etc.) the answer is yes, if there is an odd amount (3, 5, 7, 9, etc.) the answer is no. For Sight or Insight To improve eyesight or clairvoyant vision, boil a little spring water with a pinch of saffron on a Sunday. Pour this into your bath and relax in it. It will increase clairvoyant vision and soothe painful eyes. |
