Catoptromancy — The Mirror Gate

Catoptromancy — The Mirror Gate

The mirror has always invited the gaze inward.

Place a clean mirror before you in a dim room.

Position yourself comfortably.

Do not illuminate your face brightly.

Allow your gaze to soften until your reflection becomes less sharply defined.

Breathe.

Ask your question.

You may invite your spirit companion to communicate:

"If you wish to communicate through the mirror, reveal what I need to understand."

Remain receptive.

The reflection may appear to blur, shift, fade, or change. You may instead experience colors, images, emotions, words, or intuitive impressions.

Do not frighten yourself by forcing the experience.

If you become uncomfortable, stop.

Turn on the lights.

Ground yourself.

There is no virtue in remaining in a state that feels unsafe or overwhelming.
