Wire pin 2 5v on the pi to the vcc pin on the relay.
In the picture the wires are not connected normally but when the other white component which is a magnetic comes near 0 5 inch away the reed switch closes.
A magnetic field will cause the reeds to come together thus completing an electrical circuit.
