Divination is a magical process which utilises various tools to provide 'glimpses of the future'. Crystal Ball gazing is one of the most popular forms of divination. The ancient art of Scrying - gazing into a shining, luminous or reflective surface. A quest for knowledge of 'possible future events'.Reflective or high polished stones have been used for centuries in developing psychic awarenenss. Any reflective stone and those which seem to possess 'inner movement' can be used as 'mirrors of the psychic mind'.
The well-known crystal ball gazing seems to have derived from something even more ancient, that is haunting the quality of reflected images. Many different cultures through out history have used crystals or the idea of reflected energy to enhance their psychic power:
The ancient Greeks used the calm surface of water as a means of entering trance, which enabled them to 'see' their fortune. The ancient Atlanteans used crystal balls as an indispensable source for seeking answers to their questions and fulfilling other needs in their daily lives. Crystal balls were made of different patterns, sizes, colours, and tones. Any reflective surface might create a state of transient consciousness, as the Arab tradition has it that warriors used the polished surfaces of their swords for this purpose.
Nostradamus, the famous 16th century French psychic, also used water and mirror for divination. He often stared at the surface of water in a bowl until he believed saw images of future events.
In the Victorian age, crystal balls were used along with palmistry and astrology.
Selecting a crystal ball can be an interesting experience. Actually, it is a misnomer that you are selecting a particular crystal ball. It is, in fact, the other way round. It is the crystal ball that selects you. Crystals boost your energy and enable you to communicate with spirits or other entities. The larger the crystal balls, the stronger the energy that they release. Moreover, you can view clearer images in larger crystal balls. Crystal ball reading can imbibe you with psychic energy and psychic power. It can make you a clairvoyant. You can see the visuals in the crystal ball, both physical and ethereal.
When two persons gaze into the crystal ball simultaneously, they see different images. It is like tuning to a radio. You choose your own frequency.
