I posted yesterday on the festival of Hanuman......He serves Lord Rama,who is a Moon deity and is the seventh avatar of Vishnu, the Vedic sun God who is reborn each morning and sustains the order of the cosmos.
He is a Moon Rama......or gentle Rama, in contrast to some of the more war orientated Rama.....In India, it is believed the Avatars walk about the Earth and work for the good of humanity by defeating the forces of evil and helping the good.
One of the symbols of Rama is the mirror, the symbol of truth, self knowledge and wisdom. As a Moon deity, Rama reflects the glory of Vishnu.....in much the same way the Moon reflects the splendour of the Sun...magically, the mirror reflects the true identity of the human soul, and can be used to devine the future...
Magickal activity
The most versatile mirror for magickal work is full length, has three panels, and provides a view of three sides of an image at once...when combined with candle-light in a darkened room.....it creates a very mystical effect
Stand your mirrors in the corner of a room, or on your altar, if they are small enough......light a candle, and place it in front of the centre mirror.Place a chair in front of the lighted candle, and sit down in the chair.
Take several deep breaths and relax......Stare fixedly at the image of the candle deep within the mirror........pose your question......the mirror will begin to cloud with a swirling veil of ethereal mist.....through the mist, an image will appear and answer your question.When the image begins to fade,so will the mist....Once the mirror is clear, extinguish the candle, cover the mirrors with a dark velvet drape, and record your experiences in your diary or B of S
