DAY 3.
My haunted doll Stephanie is on her way to me!!!!
When an individual is unable to produce mental images.
Aphantasics conceive of ideas, stories, and other thoughts in a non- or sub-visual way.
When the average person is told to imagine a chair, they “see” a chair in their mind’s eye. Also known as visualization.
Aphantasics are incapable of doing this.
This is not a disorder, merely a variation in cognition. It also exists on a spectrum.
Those who have been blind from birth typically do not perceive of their world in a visual way.
There is at least one notable exception.
Because of this, most people who have been blind their whole lives are also incapable of visualizing.
Magick and meditation often reference visualizations as a starting point. Therein lies the problem.
As someone who is rather close to the aphantasic end of the cognition spectrum, this has been quite frustrating and significantly impeded my own spiritual growth.
But I believe my fellow aphantasic magick practitioners along with blind magick practitioners can still do powerful things even without the power of visualization.
Here is what I’ve learned so far:
Throw out the word visualization. Throw it out forever. If you’re like me, it’s not for you.
Substitute your own cognitive process. In my case, I have a strong sense of spatial/mechanical thought. Do what works for you.
Trust your intuition. You know what you need to do. Just relax.
Accept your gift. You can conceive of the world in a way many people can’t. Your magick is so so So important. Because you’ll catch what others might miss.
I hope this is helpful for someone out there. I know I can’t be the only borderline aphantasic witch.

Before moving forward I like to address the general topic about magical tools.
It’s very important that you don’t work on or create a magical tool, if you are in a bad mood, exhausted, angry, frustrated, sad or in some other kind of negative mindset.
Create a calm, relaxed, happy and positive atmosphere before starting.
You can burn incense, play relaxing meditative music,dance or raise in some other positive manner your energy.
That being said, let’s move to the creating process.
You need :
- a small concave reflecting glas/mirror, silver bowl or ,what I prefer, a parabolic reflector (like the one in the picture below).
- Moon water of the waning moon (so sickness diminishes)
- fill the concave reflector with a healthy and strong herbal tea made out of the waning moon water
This way you can combine the blessings of the waning moon with the helpful attributes of the herbal tea.
Say “open” three times and
drink the tea out of the concave mirror/reflector with healing intentions in mind and visualize how the healing energy illuminates your body.
When you are finished, say “close”three times.
These words are the key to your mirror, never leave it open. You don’t want to have any unwelcome “houseguests” in your mirror.
Afterwards you can carry the reflector as a portable health mirror with you.
Every time you look into it and open it, you can feel it’s soothing, balancing and healing energy activating your inner healing.
Open and Close you just have to say the first time three times to activate the lock, later on one time is enough.
There are also other small extras you can embed into your mirror and make it more personal, like protective healing sigils and symbols, assisting elements, a drop of your blood, etc. .
Here I just described how to make a basic portable healing mirror.

Magic Pill
This formula is for treating any disease. You should indicate a disease before you activate it. You can draw the stave on a photo of a person or on a body, or you can amake an amulet. The runes are erased from the photo after healing. The amulet can be burned in the fire with gratitude for the help.
Runes used:
Dagaz - finds and destroys the cause of the disease;
Ehwaz - accelerates the healing process;
Algiz - offers the protection of higher powers;
Ur - for regeneration, restoration and recovery.
Spell:
Dagaz destroys the cause of the disease (you must name it). Ehwaz starts and accelerates the healing process. Algiz protects from negative energies and prevents dark forces from blocking the healing process. Ur restores cells destroyed by the disease and starts the process of regeneration and recovery.
