Please add that scrying could be somewhat of a dangerous thing to your psyche unless you know what you're doing and are ensuring that no negative energy or entities are interacting. If you've not heard of the dark mirror, essentially it was an object used for scrying that ended up showing the user their own corpse. The user sold it to some paranormal show and they put it up for display, and about a hundred people or so looked in to the mirror and saw things that were not only unhelpful (such as twisted faces) but also scary. Other objects that were historically haunted which did not do anything when on display became haunted thanks to the negative energy fed on and released by the dark mirror during the months they were on display.

When one chooses an object and area for scrying, they should sense or scan the energy of the object and the area, especially if this object is to be used more than once. One safe idea is to go to a pleasant park and scry in the pond there, if the energy is positive. Don't use it near any haunted locations.
