Hi,The best tip I can give in developing your "gifts" is to be "open". Messages come through ALL the senses. And it doesn't matter if you are meditating, scrying, reading the runes, cards, etc. be open to receiving those messages. What this means is....if you are meditating and you suddenly smell perfume do not discount the smell because it wasn't an image in your mind. If you're scrying and a song suddenly pops in your head...do not discount the song because it wasn't an image on the mirror.
I have been lurking on this site for awhile, and I too would life to develop my intuitive abilities, especially as it does not come natural. I wanted to say that this was a useful to me as I have started scrying and I usually see things in my minds eye or hear things without seeing it in the glass/crystal. I have to admit I was astounded and awed at the people on the scrying thread who can see things in their crystals. I kept wondering if I was doing it wrong and kept google searching, why I heard and saw things in my minds eye and was beginning to feel that it really was just my imagination. it is really hard to trust yourself and I am struggling to differentiate if it is really an intuitive message or just my imagination.
Thanks for the message and I hope that OP has more confidence and is doing well.
