Dark Moon Scrying Spell
Readers, please enjoy this guest blog post by Tudorbeth, author of The Hedgewitch’s Little Library, including the latest release in the series, The Hedgewitch’s Little Book of Lunar Magic.
In my new book, The Hedgewitch’s Little Book of Lunar Magic, I discuss all manner of moon magic, including working with the colros and phases of the moon. One of the phases I love to complete magic in is the dark moon, the time when the moon cannot be seen. This is an ideal time to perform scrying and divination. These practices require us to open our minds and especially our third eye to see through the darkness. One of the things you are going to need for this spell is a phone, laptop, TV, or anything that has a black, reflective screen.
Scrying Spell
Scrying is a form of seeing the future or a specific time and place, and is best performed during the time of the dark moon. Traditionally, shiny or mirrored objects were used, such as black obsidian bowls that can be filled with water or mirrors themselves. In ancient times, scryers used highly polished pieces of copper.
Another way people could scry was via the crystal bowl, which is still in use today. Scryers also used a flickering candle reflected in a bowl of water, which was a favorite of Nostradamus, one of the most famous scryers in history.
However, you could use a more cost-effective method. Try your hand at scrying during the dark moon by using your phone, which has a shiny black surface and in which you can see things.
On the night of the dark moon, hold the phone in your right hand and place your left hand over it so the phone is covered. Then say:
Dark Moon, I ask for your help.
Show me what only I can see,
In my phone’s black screen.
Scrying bowls of the past,
Technology grows so fast.
I’m able to talk, see, and hear,
All that has gone before.
Past, present, and future see,
Grant me the sight of prophecy.
Remove your hand and look into the phone. Do not switch it on; you just need to look at the black screen. Focus your eyes on the images behind you as they begin to form. Although they will be behind your reflection in the phone, they are not of the past. Take note of the things you see, as they may be warnings. The black shiny screens of our phones are also great to use when you go ghost hunting or when you feel a presence. Always look into the reflection over your right shoulder.
Always enjoy the power of the moon (not just the dark moon), for our Lady is a free magical resource that can be used by everyone.
Blessed be.
