Scrying Mirrors Black mirrors have been the speculum of choice for many generations of witches. A speculum (by definition, this word means simply "mirror" and should not be confused with the medical tool of the same name) is a tool used to scry. Scrying is to divine by gazing into an object in which, or by the aid of which, visions appear. Several forms of scrying exist, including crystal ball gazing or gazing into a water-filled black vessel. But the black mirror stands out as a genuine scrying tool used by European witches from ancient times to the modern day. A black mirror is simply that, a mirror that has been backed not with a mirror surface but with some sort of black substance. The mirror does reflect, but not in the traditional way. One can choose to either look at aspects of the reflection, or gaze past the reflection deeper into the mirror. Choose the mirror to the right that you wish to view in detail
