How to Read the Crystal; or, Crystal and Seer
Produced by Ruth Hart
"How to Read the Crystal; or, Crystal and Seer" by Sepharial is a guidebook on the practice of crystal gazing, written in the early 20th century. This work explores the art of clairvoyance and the use of crystals as a medium for inducing visions, emphasizing both the psychological and spiritual dimensions of the practice. It likely draws upon the esoteric traditions and mystical practices prevalent during its time, reflecting an interest in the occult and the interplay between spirit and matter. The book provides detailed instructions on how to effectively utilize a crystal for scrying, discussing the different types of seers and their respective temperaments that may influence clairvoyant abilities. Sepharial outlines the prerequisites for successful crystal gazing, including the importance of self-possession, the right environment, and a sincere desire for truth. Throughout the text, he emphasizes the intricacies of vision interpretation, distinguishing between direct and symbolic visions, and provides cautionary advice regarding the potential pitfalls of the practice. Ultimately, "How to Read the Crystal" serves as both an instructional manual and a philosophical treatise on the inner abilities of humans to access knowledge beyond the ordinary sensory experience.
