Answer 1

This is quite a dangerous piece of equipment and its naot a play thing, but basically you have in a circle the alphabet from A - Z with a yes and no answer on it also. You place an upside down glass in the middle of the board and you all put your finger lightly on the glass before you ask any spirits to join you. However you must make sure you dont play with it and you always always close down properly otherwise its a gateway for any kind or nasty spirit alike to come into your world and affect you in a very emotional way...no word of a lie, i know someone at school who got hurt by this when he didnt have a clue what he was getting himself into.
Read up about them first please.
Ouija Boards are an excellent tool for communicating with spirit. If used with common sense and respect, they can be used to develop mediumship skills.

OUIJA: Ouija boards (pronounced wee-ja) are used as a method to contact the spirit world using the letters of the alphabet and a glass or planchette They are also known as Talking Boards or Isis Boards. The word Ouija is taken from the French word Oui meaning 'yes', and the German word Ja also meaning 'yes'.-

A board with letters and numbers on which messages are spelled out by unconsciously moving (with the fingers) a glass or planchette See also automatism. See also our full article about OUIJA BOARDS

Ouija (pronounced wee-juh or wee-jee) refers to the belief that one can receive messages during a séance by the use of a Ouija board (also called a talking board or spirit board) and planchette. The fingers of the participants are placed on the planchette which then moves about a board covered with numbers, letters and symbols so as to spell out messages. (Wikepedia)


OUIJA BOARD ADVICE
Nobody knows for certain how or where Ouija Boards originated. It is thought that Ouija Boards may have been invented in Ancient Egypt or Ancient Greece and spread through Europe during Medieval times.. In the late 19th Century Ouija was marketed as a game by Parker Brothers and became widespread. In the hands of a properly trained medium a Ouija board has been shown to be a useful tool for spirit communication but in the hands of an amateur it can be very frightening.

There are instances of successful communication within Spiritualist circles and catalogued by the Society of Psychical research. For example, one of the most important experiments to prove life after death was a case called the 'Cross Correspondence'.

In 1904 a medium called Mrs Verall 'received' a script containing the words 'record the bits and when fitted together they will make the whole'. Soon afterward three other mediums from around the world received communications from the spirits of three dead SPR researchers named Frederick Myres, Henry Sidgwick and Edmund Gurney. When the fragments of information received via the mediums was brought together over a period of four years it was found to give a detailed message that took them to the tomb of the Medicis in the church of San Lorenzo in Florence.

Some of the verifiable information received in the case came via the Ouija board.

Sceptic believe that people using the Ouija board either consciously or unconsciously select what is read. The English scientist Michael Faraday call this the ideomotor effect. To prove this is at work when people use the Ouija board, sceptics suggest that the Ouija board participants are blindfolded and a neutral person should then take notes. If real spirits are present then they would 'see' the letters and be able to spell out messages. Usually, the results are unintelligible nonsense.It can of course be argued that the human perceptions are needed in any form of spirit communication and their dismissal of this phenomena does not explain why some people get verifiable evidence of survival.

I believe that Ouija boards tap mental energy that manifests in such a way that it is able to influence the movement of the glass. (Parapsychologists call this psychokinisis or PK) However in my opinion the energy being used is of such a low level that the participants own anxieties and fears can influence the results. Often people play the game just for fun or to scare themselves and inevitably the results are upsetting when real information does come through. The participants may also create what psychics call 'mind forms' that appear to be like spirits but are in fact their own energies that have taken an independent form. The Tibetans called these spirits 'Tulpas'.

Most importantly, there is no control over the energies being manifested while using a Ouija board. The participants are completely unprotected. If spirits do get involved then sometimes they can be mischievous or bad spirits. It is like opening your house to the street for a party and inviting everyone to attend. Eventually things will get out of hand.

I have worked with Ouija boards and received some useful communications. In the hands of a properly trained medium they are safe. However they are also clumsy and a very draining way to work with the spirit. There are far safer and more effective ways to make a communication.

So my advice about Ouija Boards and Planchettes: Throw them away.

DISCUSS OUIJA BOARDS-

Question: Should mediums use the Ouija Board? is it safe?

Should I use the Ouija Board?
Craig's article written for the BBC teenage website section about Ouija Boads.

The simple answer is: Don't do it "I advise you strongly not to use a ouija board," says Craig. "When they work they're like an open door to all emotions and feelings, so our own thoughts can effect it and it can be very deceiving. Any fears you have can be reflected right back at you, which is very frightening."


But if you really are determined...

Be serious about it, but cheerful at the same time.

Do it with good intent - don't try to deceive or insult anyone with it.

Don't ask it questions about the future, because the spirit world can't tell you about the future.

Make sure all the people you do it with are calm and have no emotional or mental problems, and make sure they have the same good intent as you.

Drink water, because that can help clear negative energy. Definitely don't have any alcohol.

Do it in the daytime rather than at night, so you're less likely to get jumpy.

Ask the spirit world or God - however you want to put it - for protection before you do it.

Answer 2

I played with a homemae ouiji board a couple minutes ago and it worked! look up the paper tuttuorial on youtube thats what i did. we talked to a spirit and left when it said it was bad!

Answer 3

Yes. My cousin and I used one at the horse ranch they care take for at this old abandoned farm house. The board started doing its thing and answering questions and the board said its name was Pete Post. When it said that the floor above us started creaking and the cabinet doors in the kitchen started opening and closing. We got scared and tried to burn it in the wood stove and it burned or so we thought. When we went in the house their was a full moon when we came out the moon had a halo around it. We came back the next day to check the house and the board that supposedly burned the night before was in perfect condition laying in the middle of the wood stove in a pile of ash. As far as I know that board is still there. Be careful with those.

Answer 9

DON'T LISTEN TO THE SCARE MONGERS.

It's a load of old twaddle, there's invariably someone in the group who will be putting pressure on the glass to spell something. I defy anyone to prove to me that they work.

Answer 10

I can't belive people will mess with forces they don't understand
