Historically, people have gazed into a reflective ball to answer questions and develop their intuitive powers for personal guidance and inspiration. With practice one can learn to trust their intuition about the symbolism that the open mind creates when gazing into the crystal ball. To use the crystal ball, simply write a word or phrase on the square paper provided and place it under the glass ball stand. Close your eyes and find the stillness within you. Open your eyes and gaze into the ball, taking note of emotions and you feel, see and hear. Remain open to any flashes of clarity or moments of inspiration that may arise.
