attempts, this manifestation in itself is more likely to take several days<br />
of disciplined practice.<br />
Continuing to scry into the python, or into anything else with<br />
the same focus and discipline, again and again, will eventually bring<br />
the external senses into alignment with that which is seen by the inner<br />
mind. Once the serpent can be seen in the mirror as clear, colorful and<br />
independently animated either by the eyes or the inner sight - you<br />
may leave the serpent be, and retire the sigH of Sastan in the<br />
appropriate manner, giving verbal thanks for his assistance in<br />
awakening your senses thus far. The mirror should be covered in black<br />
cloth, preferablY silk, and should be put where it will not be seen,<br />
touched, or damaged.<br />
The sigil ofMepsitahl<br />
To polish and refine the<br />
scrying senses, the spirit Mepsitahl<br />
offers the most effective assistance.<br />
Mepsitahl was first discovered and<br />
recorded by the Magician and author<br />
Konstantinos in his book Summoning<br />
Spirits; the Art of Magical Evocation'.<br />
Mepsitahl appears as a woman who is<br />
both ancient and youthful at once,<br />
being possessed of radiant white hair<br />
and porcelain skin. She wears flowing<br />
aqua robes. Around her head she<br />
wears a gem which covers her third<br />
eye, purportedly strengthening that sight.<br />
Mepsitahl's appearance itself is the catalyst which will draw<br />
out the most renitent psychic facuIties, uniting the vision and the voice<br />
of the apparition with the eyes and the ears of the Operator. Her hypnotic<br />
gaze and flawless skin in constant glow lulls the temporal, causative<br />
mind into a trance, whereby the true intelligence may surface and the<br />
real learning may begin.<br />
Prepare the Temple and the altar in the same manner as the<br />
previous scrying exercise, with Mepsitahl's sigil in hand. Have also a<br />
notebook and a pen so that you may take written note of anything that<br />
is said, experienced, or learned from her. Charge the sigil in the usual<br />
manner. When it is opened and flashing, speak softly towards it,<br />
