OK, I've seen some things here that disturb me. I'm just going to share some knowledge to keep you all safe.
- Always treat the board w/ respect. It is very important. Always be silent when a spirit is speaking and never get on the board looking for a fight. Whether or not the spirit is powerful, you might just get that fight. And always assume you have no idea what you're dealing with.
- Be careful on stormy days and days w/ solar and lunar eclipses. The barrier between this world and the next is thin on these days.
- Candles are not necessary but do seem to help with communication. Lighter colored candles are used to attract good spirits, black or red candles for malevolent ones. In personal experience, darker colors have worked well for me-but be careful w/ your color of choice. (place them on either side of the board.)
- NEVER let the spirits use the planchette to move down through the #'s or through the alphabet because they can be released from the board this way.
- Never tell them they can join you or visit you. Never.
- Always properly close the board when you are done. (to open, circle the sun 3-5 times depending on who you are trying to contact, go over the Ouija logo, and "get it started" by running it over the alphabet a bit. Circle the sun 3 times for a random spirit, 4 times for a specific spirit, 5 times for an evil spirit.) To close the board, circle the moon the # of times you circled the sun and go over the "Goodbye" to break the connection.
- Never leave the planchette on the board by itself when you aren't playing.
- Spirits will lie. Even so, don't ask about God, the devil or death.
- It is not a good idea to ask the spirits to carry out tasks for you. There was a recorded case of two girls who asked the Ouija board to carry out nasty little tasks for them-it led to the death of one of the friends they were mad at. In other words, be careful what you wish for.
- Taking part in Ouija in a haunted place is very dangerous and WILL call fourth malevolent forces. Don't do it.
- Do not drink or do drugs prior to playing. It's making your body weak and susceptible to possession.
- Loud noises should be diminished for any worthwhile results.
- And finally, NEVER BURN THE BOARD!!!!!! A lot of people think this is the proper way to dispose of it-its the most dangerous thing anyone can do when dealing with a Ouija board. DON'T DO IT. It will lead to severe trouble. Do dispose of the board, break it into seven pieces, sprinkle it with holy water and bury it.
I don't discourage anyone from using the board, but i do encourage cautiousness. Be careful and have fun!
PS: A tip on making your own board: some say that you should make the letters in a circle to keep the spirit trapped on the board-but these people also say that you shouldn't use any board but your own. It's your choice. Good luck.
One more thing-(sorry)-to protect against evil spirits: Turn the board upside-down, as well as the planchette. Place the upside-down planchette on the board, have all participants touch it, and say in a clear, strong voice "No evil spirits" 3 times. Then commence in playing. If at any time you suspect the spirit you're speaking to is evil (particularly if as soon as you start they go to the moon), flip the planchette over immediately and use it that way.
Have fun!
