Follow your heart
Not your Idols

if you are asking the spirit about something you are thinking about don't use anything that is related to anything in the room you are in. (i know i worded that weird, i'm sorry) i was playing around with one of these once with my friends and one of them were asking questions about things she was thinking about and i was moving the triangle thing to scare her. she asked what band am i think about and i spelled out nsync because there was a poster, what color and i spelled out purple because of her lava lamp, things like that. i'm not sure how i know what things she was thinking about considering she was a teenage girl and the walls in her room were full of posters and pictures but somehow i did and it scared her. maybe i was used as the middle man with the spirit, but i do know your friends can trick you into believeing what isn't real, so be careful.

I dont think dabbling in this kind of thing is wise because it will lead but to disapointment no matter what kind of results you received. Those with an addictive personality will most certainly keep having just one more go just see what happens. Those who pursue such things should, in my opinion, have a grounding in a years worth of witchcraft teaching within a properly organised coven who would offer support and guidance.

My personal experince with it lead to dangerous things including temporary possession but only because I invited demonic energies on purpose as part of my self-taught magi trainning and it was necessary to overcome particular barriers and my mind is stronger for it.

I have also had nice occurrances with such things aswell and built up quite a rapport with a couple of spirits with automatic writing techniques.

hey all, i wanted to post about my experience using a Ouija board. it was at a Halloween party a couple years ago. my friends wanted to try it some were skeptics and some were believers like me. We waited until midnight and then proceeded to ask questions.We had someone at a computer ready to search any answers given. At first it was slow moving and unresponsive but soon it picked up speed. we asked it questions like who are you? and what do you want? pretty straight forward questions. i cant remember the name it gave us but when we googled it the name was of guy who's body was dumped on a highway in new jersey. It freaked us all out.

recently i find myself searching for answers in different places to different questions. i have been considering using the board again, however i would be alone in doing so this time around. i have read it is a bad idea to use the board alone on different threads but i am uncertain how i will proceed.

Please don't even try it. I did when i was a teen and it messed me up for quite a while. Yes, they do sell these as toys but they are not good! You will be opening a door to things you don't want in your life. They have the right to come in if your opening the door for them and i think you will regret it. It sounds like fun till bad things start happening and then you have no idea how to deal with it.

I wasn't going to tell any stories of what happened to me but i think i will if it will keep you from doing this. It does lie, but it may tell just enough truth to keep you hooked. I asked it who i was going to marry and it said NAJ. I couldn't figure it out at the time but a few years later i married a guy with those initials. I started seeing "things" at night in my room and hearing people walking around in the house. My little brother also heard these and would get scared and wanted to sleep in my room. I felt bad because i knew it had to be because i played the ouija in my house. Thats when everything started going bad. A demon grabbed me by the shoulders one night and i jumped out of my bed to see a black hand/arm coming out of the wall! iI would hear chanting of thousands of people as soon as i laid down to sleep. couldn't understand them but it was very scary!
i was out with my boyfriend and we both seen three hooded creatures standing a ways from the car. They started to walk to us and every few seconds they would be several feet closer. We freaked out and started backing up trying to find somewhere to turn around. When we finally got turned around we couldn't see them anymore. I became obsessed with playing and would get violent if people said no. I talked my friend into playing in the car with me one night and while we were playing we heard tapping on the roof. Soon it was all over the car and the car was rocking back and forth like someone trying to flip it upside down.
My decision to do this not only effected me but my friends and family. Please don't even think about playing with this. I wish i had had someone to tell me not to.

The majority of people seem to say that you will only be contacted by evil or trickster spirits though use of the ouija board. If this is in fact the case how do you contact benevolent spirits? Is there another tool or "game" that can be used?

You know when it starts working when the hairs on the back of your neck stick up. I developed a board many years ago but it wasnt an ouija board, it was a cabala tree of life with a pentagram at the bottom, widh I had never done it now but at the time I was into that stuff. I was only about 16 when I did it and was on my own, lets just say, it absolutely terryfied me that night after performing the ritual. I had a really bad experience and never want to go through that again I am 43 now and I cn still remember what happened like it was yesterday.

Such things are probably best left alone, trust me.

I don't think we are supposed to communicate with spirits, good or bad ones. maybe there are rules of some kind (if that makes sense) that they dont communicate and the bad ones don't mind braking the rules because they enjoy the mess they make of our lives when we invite them in. I for one will never ever even think of being close to one now. I have learned my lesson. I can't help it if people don't believe me. But If i can keep anyone from going through what i went through then its worth telling some of my experiences.

Tell me what to do, or what not to do, suggest something, etc. Just don't tell me to not try a Ouija board... because I'm going to try it.

Just have fun.
