Before reflecting the slightest image, the Self-Existing Mirror sets the frame: which question, on what subject, how far.

When someone asks your opinion, you start by drawing boundaries. Are we talking about this project or the whole career? This conflict or the entire relationship? This frame makes your reflection reliable, and the people who consult you know exactly what they are going to receive, with nothing spilling over. It has its downside, though. A Mirror sees what presents itself, not only what it has been asked to look at; if the frame is too tight, what appeared just beside it goes unmentioned, when that may have been the most important thing. The tone’s precision ends up hiding part of the image.

The White Wizard, your guide, lets things come to it without forcing them. It offers your Self-Existing Mirror a receptivity that depends on no prior definition: welcoming what appears in the frame without having been invited. With it, the frame stays a window rather than a shutter, and the image it holds can surprise you without unsettling you. Setting a frame that protects the accuracy of the reflection, without forbidding it to show the unexpected: the question of your Kin comes up with every opinion you give.

The guide changes with the tone; the Analog, the Antipode and the Occult belong to the seal.

The Analog, the Red Dragon: The Dragon nurtures what the Mirror reflects, and gives it substance beyond mere reflection.
The Antipode, the Yellow Star: The Star shines from its own center, where the Mirror tries to build edges that other people’s light cannot pass through.
The Occult (hidden power), the Blue Night: In the depth of the Night, the Mirror finds what truly belongs to it, away from the presence of others.
