Crystal Ball How It Works: Scrying
The practice of using a crystal ball is known as scrying (or crystallomancy). Rather than the ball itself possessing magical powers, the sphere acts as a meditative tool. The practitioner gazes into the center of the orb with unfocused eyes, inducing a hypnotic, trance-like state. In this meditative zone, shadows, mists, and mental flashes appear that are interpreted as psychic visions or messages from the subconscious.
