Used by ancient times such as portals, oracles and magical tools, the mirrors reveal secrets of the unconscious and the world of spirits
The first mirrors were the lakes of ancient Greece themselves. In the quiet days, when the waters remained serene, it was possible to see a surprisingly detailed reflection. The ancient Celts, for example, had the habit of observing the reflection of their eyes on the surface of the lakes, many spiritual philosophies believe that the eyes are the manifestation of the soul, therefore they believed that they could access the mysteries of the unconscious and obtain precious revelations about the past, the gift and even the future.
Carl Jung and the revelation of the unconscious
Carl Jung, a famous psychoanalyst and scholar of the human mind, reveals that the unconscious knows all the traits of our personality. This means that it maintains awareness of our failures and virtues and therefore has clues about everything that can happen in our future, precisely because we will act in the face of life situations.
The evolution of physical mirrors
In an attempt to capture this reflective phenomenon, stones and polishing metals began until the glass was finally reached. Coated with a thin layer of silver on one side, the glass has become a perfectly reflective surface: like a crystalline, “frozen” lake, ready to be used at any time.
Initially, the mirrors were made of metals such as gold, silver and copper, always looking for a clear and reflective surface. In other cultures, obsidian stone was also used, a volcanic stone that projects a dark and dark image. But this is a theme that we will leave for another article.
The mirror as a magical tool
At that time, the mirrors were exclusively by hand. They were considered personal tools, almost sacred. And with this we understand a profound truth: it is only possible to see one’s future through the reflective blade of a mirror.
He only reflects those who observe it, therefore, the visions and omens belong exclusively to the user. “Mirror, my mirror, is there anyone more beautiful than me?” We all remember this legendary phrase in the history of Snow White. This magical scene is not so far from the reality of magic with mirrors.
There are millennia, witches and magicians all over the world use mirrors as portals for other dimensions. Through them, magic and spells are performed, they are used as oracles and as passages for magical beings who inhabit the spiritual plans.
Portals and oracles
Many ask me: who answers the questions asked in front of the magical mirror? I bring you two possibilities. The first is the manifestation of his unconscious. He can present himself in many ways: like a man, a woman, a child, an elderly person, it all depends on how his unconscious wants to reveal himself to you.
The second possibility is the invocation of a guardian spirit. A magical being who lives one of the many spiritual worlds that lies in his mirror as a protector and guide. In both cases, these spirits can only be invoked by a consecration ritual. A ritual that should be done only by those who already follow the magical journey with consciousness and responsibility.
Rituals and take care of magic mirrors
With the mirror adequately envied by sacred and consecrated herbs, we can communicate with magical beings, since it acts as a reflection of our interior. Through it, we access vibrations, energy and spiritual entities that resonate with our faith and devotion. Therefore, the conscious and respectful use of the mirror in our magical practice is fundamental.
Since it acts as a portal, it is necessary to protect you from negative influences and obsessive entities. Before any ritual, whether invoking or displayed, we must consecrate the mirror, imagine it and open a magical circle of protection.
