Obsidian mirror for evocations?

[StarOfSitra]

Hi, lately I’ve been hearing a lot of people talking about using obsidian mirrors for their evocations, and I bought a small one because I found it at a very good price and it’ll let me try it out for myself. I’d like to know if any of you have ever used these mirrors and what your results were. Thanks.

I’ve been working with the obsidian mirror since I opened the post, and honestly, it’s overwhelming — when you unfocus your eyes, it also makes them water after a while. I hadn’t had any results until today, when I was finally able to clearly see eyes — many eyes — watching.

Allow me: are they just 'eyes,' and did I truly see them or was it just imagination? And have my capabilities developed afterwards? I am very interested in interacting with you.

Obsidian Mirrors and other various form of reflecting objects are commonplace as scrying tools to commune with the spirit world. One prerequisite in nearly all traditions is the need to first consecrate the mirror prior to use generally in observance with specific lunar cycles.

the grimoire “The Book of Oberon” has a detailed consecration rite that may be worth consulting.

"I do not know how to thank you. We have similar rituals involving a physical fast for seven days and reading specific incantations and invocations. It yields very good results in the field of vision/scrying (al-Ruyā). I believe they are similar to the Western traditions, if not their very origin.
