- Very good advice. Practice _observation_ as part of your visualisation
- exercises. Look at a physical o0bject, and reconstruct it as a 3-d image
- with your faculty of 'imagination'.

- There are, actually, dozens of 'little tricks' like this that can speed
- up and improve success at visualization. Almost all of them have been
- written down in the various books that discuss the nitty-gritty of
- magickal training. A little basic reading will give the beginning
- practicioner all the exercises and tricks that they could need.
