Scrying Exercise

In the esoteric world, scrying is a form of both meditation and divination. Also referred to as “peeping” or the simpler, yet broader view term “seeing,” to scry is to open your third eye to endless possibilities of the metaphysical. Some who scry use crystal balls or mirrors or even water. Some open a self-induced trance. With no real set structure or written order to scrying, it’s an open-ended form of looking into the beyond and reflecting on what you see.

Frequently scrying comes via fire, as TJ and I did on our honeymoon, honoring and raising energy to the divine as a way of thanks for blessing our union. It took a little extra effort and an extra nudge from the fire elementals presided by King Djinn, but we stoked our blaze and took the time to scry and whisper to each other what we believe manifested before our eyes. Fire dancers, salamanders, angelic facades and animal profiles are the most common beings to be found in a bonfire, and we certainly found those, live in within the random shots I snapped.

What do you scry from these pictures, if anything?
