DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE OVOIDS AND SHPERES FOR CRYSTAL OR MIRROR
VISION
Daylight and artificial light are both equally suitable. A North
light is the best suited to the human eye.
Observer should sit back to the light, holding the Ovoid or Sphere
in the palm of the hand, which may rest comfortably on the lap, or
it can be placed on a table with a stand under it, and a back screen
of black velvet or dark material. The latter materially assists by
cutting off side lights and reflections. Steady gazing in complete
silence is absolutely necessary, for unlike other occult phenomena,
the distraction the attention of primary (ordinary) consciousness is
a great disadvantage. Success depends chiefly upon idiosyncrasy
or faculty in the gazers, for "Seers" are very often men and women
of imperfect education, in fact they seem "born rather than made"
but the faculty may be developed in many people, seemingly at
first insensitive, by frequent short trials, say fifteen to twenty
minutes at a time, or less if they get tired.
Success is indicated when the Sphere or Ovoid, ceasing to reflect,
becomes milky, a clouded colour following (generally red, and its
complementary green), turning to blackness, which seems to roll
away like a curtain, disclosing to the view of the student, pictures,
scenes, figures in action, sentences of warnings, advice, etc., etc.
Revival of latent or lapsed memory is one of the leading features
of this experiment. A book of instructions, carefully copied by
Raphael from the old astrological works, is prepared specially for
his crystals, price 1s. 2d. post free.
THE PRACTICE OF CRYSTAL VISION
Magi Spheres are considered the best. The price a few years ago
was £3 3s. each, but the sale having become larger and the process
less expensive, they are now sent packed with instructions for 15s.

see at once, others after a time. Women see better than men
visions of the past, present, and future, on the subjects upon which
the mind feels anxious. It does not require a knowledge of
astrology to be able to use the crystal."
