# Psychomantium > An angled mirror chamber provides a permission slip for alleged non-corporeal consciousness perception - Canonical: https://sassani.app/topic/psychomantium # Psychomantium The psychomantium is a permission-slip chamber for perceiving non-corporeal consciousness. Bashar describes it as a dimly lit — ideally candle-lit — small room with a mirror angled so that the seated person never sees their own reflection, only an unbroken, single-color blank wall. Held with a relaxed, open-eyed gaze, the undifferentiated reflective field invites the brain to extend its senses into the etheric realm until non-physical beings can be perceived pressing slightly into reality without fully materializing. Like every permission slip, the apparatus itself does nothing; it gives the user a structured reason to allow an innate sensitivity to surface. ## The chamber and what it does Bashar gives the construction in plain terms: a room dimly lit, preferably by a candle, with a mirror reflecting only the blank candle-lit wall and never the viewer's own face. Meditating in that room with eyes open on the mirror, eventually the gaze relaxes and the frequency of perception adjusts enough to register non-corporeal beings as they push themselves, in a sense, a little bit into one's reality — perceivable more strongly than otherwise without their having to push all the way in. A mirror encountered in ordinary life can also function this way by accident. To a friend who looked in a mirror and saw a frightening stranger looking back, Bashar explains that a mirror sometimes acts as a psychomantium, "like the idea of a crystal ball or a bowl of water that allows your senses to relax enough and change vibration enough to be actually able to see what was normally invisible." The frightening form is simply what is normally invisible, picked up because the friend shifted vibration; there is no reason for fear — it is just seeing more deeply into the dimensions that are around everyone all the time, populated by beings that operate on a different frequency. ## One permission slip among equals The psychomantium does not make other methods redundant; it simply makes them different. Crystal gazing, scrying, tarot, and a video feedback loop are each distinct permission slips for the same innate sensitivity, and Bashar lists them as equals — the choice among them depends on preference, on what works for the individual. This matters because a permission slip is never the source of the perception. It is a tool, technique, ritual, or object one uses to give oneself permission to be more of who one is; the user does the work. The psychomantium is one shaped way of granting that permission; a crystal ball, a video loop, or a tarot spread are others. ## Which direction the perception actually goes The instinctive reading is that such a chamber pulls higher-density beings down into third density. Bashar reverses the direction. What is actually happening when such beings are perceived is that the setup has enticed the viewer to expand up into fourth density and perceive into fifth. Fifth density is non-corporeal totally; fourth density is still a high level of quasi-physical reality expression. The chamber does not drag the beings down to the viewer — it invites the viewer up toward them. Bashar also names a numerical threshold: 333,000 cycles per second is the boundary between physical and non-physical reality, and the signature frequencies of extracorporeal entities sit not much more than 20,000 to 25,000 cycles on either side of it. The number is offered as orientation, not as a target to engineer toward. ## Practical implications A few practical markers emerge from these two transcripts, offered as permission-slip framing rather than as instruction or a guarantee of any perception: The setup is about the viewer's relaxation and focus, not the apparatus. The mirror angled at a blank wall, the dim candle light, and the open-eyed gaze are a structure for allowing a sensitivity the viewer already has. A frightening face or unfamiliar form seen this way is not a threat; it is a being on a different frequency made briefly visible. Recognizing "this cannot be real" is itself the clue that one is seeing something normally invisible, not a reason to recoil. The method is one among many. If a mirror-and-candle room does not suit, a video feedback loop, a crystal, a scrying surface, or tarot are equally valid alternative permission slips for the same sensitivity. Bashar will not hand the viewer their own signature frequency or the amplitude range to chase — the discovery itself is the point; "the journey is the destination," and insisting on a specific outcome closes down the ways the perception could actually manifest. This material is a permission-slip account of perception. It is not medical, psychological, or scientific direction, and a psychomantium is no substitute for professional care for anyone in psychological distress. ## Representative passages You can create a room dimly lit, preferably by a candle, with a mirror in the room reflecting only a blank wall lit by the candle, not your own reflection. By meditating in that room, with your eyes open on the mirror reflecting the blank wall, eventually you may adjust to the frequency that will allow you to perceive when non-corporeal beings are actually pushing themselves a little bit into your reality, and you may become able to perceive them a little bit more strongly without them having to push all the way in. It doesn't make the video feedback loop redundant; it simply makes it different.— Bashar, Permission Slips Liquid Crystals Live Growing Fractals (permission-slips-liquid-crystals-live-growing-fractals#qa-1) Looking in a mirror sometimes can function as what is called a psychomantium, like the idea of a crystal ball or a bowl of water that allows your senses to relax enough and change vibration enough to be able to see what was normally invisible... There's no reason for fear — it's just seeing more deeply into the dimensions that are all around you all the time, populated by other beings that operate on a different frequency you quite often can't perceive.— Bashar, of2Continuing Education Bashar [2015-06-19] (of2continuing-education-bashar-2015-06-19-2#qa-2) ## Related - [Permission Slips](https://sassani.app/topic/permission-slips) - [Astral Travel & Levitation](https://sassani.app/topic/astral-travel) - [Telepathy & Psychic Functioning](https://sassani.app/topic/telepathy) - [Fourth Density Transition](https://sassani.app/topic/fourth-density) Markdown twin of https://sassani.app/topic/psychomantium.
