I've been prompted to make this post; I learned this from a mentor about 25 years ago. It is simple yet amazing in the results. This technique is used for meditation but is also useful for developing your astral vision. Light a candle, sit comfortably and breath easy. Focus on the flame, see it - ALL of it - the candle, the wick, and all the wonderful colors. Notice the shades, then pick a focal point - I like the blue part near the wick - close your eyes and recreate the candle. If you want/need open your eyes and get more details then close your eyes and continue. Practice this and you'll be amazed. This is in line with Alex's suggestion on visualizing a spirits vessel, but I have found that the living flame is sometimes easier to recreate. Good luck all.
Peace, light & love

Excellent Phil! Wonderful exercise.
If everyone cared and nobody cried,
If everyone loved and nobody lied,
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride,
Then we'd see the day when nobody died.

“It's easy to look at people and make quick judgments about them, their present and their past, but you'd be amazed at the pain and tears a single smile hides. What a person shows to the world is only one tiny facet of the iceberg hidden from sight. And more often then not, it's lined with cracks and scars that go all the way to the foundation of their soul.”
