You'll want to set up a space in a quiet room where you have a flat surface to put the crystal ball so that you can sit comfortably in front of it and you'll need to be able to make it dark in the room too. Have a dark fabric to drape the table top. You should either have a base for under the ball that emits light, or have a small candle that you can put on the far side of the ball to illuminate it.

Crystal ball gazing is a form of meditation and the softly-lit ball is what you focus on. The idea is that you clear you mind and gaze intently into the ball. This can induce a light trance state, and when it does, people often see shapes and images inside the crystal ball. Some people prefer a crystal ball that is perfectly clear while others like one with a few inclusions.

The best time to scry is when you feel like it and won't be disturbed. As with all things, if often takes some practice before you start to see anything when you ball gaze.

    You don't need anyone beyond yourself to scry with a crystal ball. And gaze as long as you can do it without losing focus. When you begin to feel tired or can't concentrate, then stop and take a break.
