Okay, so listen… I don’t know if it’s the Pisces in me, but mirrors and I have always had a thing. Like, I’ve had moments where I’m looking into a mirror, and my reflection starts doing its own thing—literally. I’ve seen my face morph into what I’m convinced are glimpses of past lives. Sometimes I get so lost in the mirror that it shows me things I don’t even understand until I have déjà vu later.

For a long time, this freaked me all the way out. I wouldn’t even glance at my reflection for more than a second, rushing to wash my hands like, “Nope, not today!” But as I’ve grown spiritually, I’ve learned to embrace these moments as part of my gifts.

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on the power of mirrors and how they’ve played a unique role in my spiritual journey. It feels like the perfect time to share some insights about mirror scrying, aka divination through mirrors—a practice that has deepened my connection to Spirit and unlocked powerful intuitive messages. Let’s dive in.

What Is Mirror Divination?

Mirror divination, also called scrying or catoptromancy (fancy, right?), is an ancient practice that goes way back. Cultures all over the world have tapped into this technique for thousands of years. The concept is simple: you stare into a reflective surface—a mirror, water, whatever—and use it to connect with your intuition and the universal energy around you.

Think of the mirror as a spiritual hotline, dialing up insight, clarity, and vibes straight from the metaphysical. Mirrors have always carried a mysterious, soul-level energy, which makes them perfect tools for tapping into the unseen. Whether you’re looking for answers, guidance, or just a peek behind the veil, mirror divination can get you there.

Your Mirror Scrying Starter Pack

To get started, here’s what you’ll need:

1. A Handheld Mirror – Something you vibe with. Bonus points if you decorate it to make it feel personal and powerful.
2. Physical Cleaner – Like Windex, rubbing alcohol, or whatever you use to get rid of smudges.
3. Spiritual Cleanser – Florida Water, sea salt with lemon juice, or anything else you like for spiritual cleansing.
4. (Optional) A spiritual water for setting intentions—moon water, rose water, or something you’ve charged with energy.
5. (Optional) A white tea light or chime candle to set the mood.

Prep Your Mirror 

1. Physically Clean It
   A dirty mirror won’t cut it. Cleanliness is next to Godliness; give it a good wipe-down first.

2. Spiritually Cleanse It
   This is not optional. Mirrors are portals, which means they can pick up and hold onto energy. And yes, that includes people being able to remote-view through them. So, grab your spiritual cleanser and clean that mirror like your energy depends on it—because it does.

3. Add Intentions (Optional)
   Draw sigils on your mirror with spiritual water to amplify your energy. For example:

   • Neptune or Moon sigils for intuition and spiritual clarity.
   • Mars sigils for protection.
     Get creative with it; this step is all about making the mirror your personal tool.

4. Prepare Your Candle (Optional)
   If you’re using a candle, cleanse and charge it to align with your intentions.

How to Dive Into Mirror Scrying

1. Find Your Sacred Space
   Pick a quiet, comfortable spot where you can vibe without interruptions.

2. Light Your Candle (Optional)
   Candles aren’t just cute—they’re a signal to Spirit that you’re open to receiving insight.

3. Set Boundaries
   This step is not skippable. Affirm that you’re only inviting in spirits, energies, and vibes that align with your greatest and highest good. Be specific—don’t leave room for unwanted guests.

4. Focus on the Mirror
   Sit comfortably and let your gaze soften as you look into the mirror. Take slow, deep breaths to ground yourself in this dimension while opening your mind to receive insight from another.

5. Ask Your Question
   Think about what you want to know, and let the mirror be your guide. Be patient—this isn’t a magic eight ball. Let the answers come to you in their own time and way.

What to Expect & How to Interpret Your Visions

Alright, so here’s the deal: your mirror is not about to show you a full-blown movie trailer of your future. That’s not how this works. The mirror is a tool, a visual way to tell Spirit, “I’m open to receiving.”

The messages you get will often show up in your mind’s eye—like a daydream. They might not make sense right away, and that’s okay. This is where your intuition and interpretation skills come in.

Here are some questions to help you decode your visions:

1. What Did You See?
   Write down everything—symbols, colors, actions, anything that stood out.

2. What’s Grabbing Your Attention?
   Look for key themes or repeating patterns.

3. What Does It Mean in Real Life?
   Think about how those themes or symbols might relate to your current situation.

4. What’s the Context of Your Question?
   Tie it all back to the question you asked. How does it connect?

Pro Tip: Keep a journal of your sessions. Over time, you’ll start noticing patterns and deeper layers of meaning in your visions.

Closing the Portal

Working with mirrors means working with portal energy, so it’s important to shut things down properly. Here’s how:

• Thank the spirits or energies that came through for their guidance.
• Affirm that the session is over and that the mirror is closed as a portal.
• Snuff out your candle (don’t blow it out!).
• Store your mirror somewhere intentional and safe.
