Make your surroundings comfortable and seemingly free of negative
energies.
Prepare paper and pencil or a tape recorder to record
messages. You can use a camcorder if one is available. Using an infrared
camcorder in a dim room is a great way to see the energies of spirit.
Be sure your board is clean and free of dust. Wipe
gently with a clean soft cloth before you begin.
You do not have to use 'spooky lighting' or candles.
It is best not to play distracting music.
As spirits love flowers - you might want to place some
in a vase of water near the area in which you are working.
Spirits also love water - as they are part of the
collective unconscious which is the flow of water.
Some people like to say a prayer over the board - or do
some other ritual.
Use a protective white light of energy to surround
yourself, the board, those you are working with, and even the room. This
white light is created by you in your mind. See it coming down into the
top of your head (your crown chakra) and completely surrounding your
body - then extend it outwards as far as you would like it to go.
Decide if you want to place the board on a table, upon
the knees of two persons, or where it is most comfortable for you to
connect.
You can work alone or in a group. If you work with
others be sure they are not negative in their thinking.
Determine who wants to use the board - and who wants to
just observe.
It is best if someone makes notes about the letters and
words given.
Decide which person will ask the first question - and if
there is to be an order to follow for asking questions.
If everyone wants a turn at the board - it is best to go
clockwise around the board with each person taking their turn.
The time for each turn will vary with the spirit you
answering.
People may be contacted by more than one spirit.
Sometimes the spirits argue over who is to come through.
Though spiritual energy enters through the left side of
your body - most people will use their dominate hand to work the board -
which in most cases is the right hand.
If you have telekinetic abilities and feel you can move
the indicator with your mind, then it is best not to use the board as
you are guiding the answers.
You may also discover - as you work with the board -
that you can subconsciously control the movement of the indicator (same
as using a pendulum). If you are not sure - close your eyes and allow
the indicator to go where it will.
Some spirits move across the board quickly - while
others go very slow!
One of the first questions you might want to ask when
you begin to work with your Ouija board - is the names of your spirit
guides. They are the ones who are here to protect and guide you.
Everyone has at least one spirit guide.
You can start by asking for a message from spirit - or
by asking spirit a question - such as, "What is your name?"
Always start with general questions. Save the personal
questions for later when you are all comfortable with what you are
doing!
Stick to subjects with positive energy to begin.
Don't ask your personal questions until you are
comfortable with the spirit you are talking to.
Once an answer is given you can ask for more
information.
It is generally best to start with simple 'Yes' or 'No'
questions.
Do not continue to ask the question over and over to
seek the answer you want. Ask the question once and accept the answers
given. You CAN ask for clarification of the answer.
Ask simple questions that can be verified in the next
few days to determine if your information is from spirit or from your
unconscious mind.
Questions can be about you personally - or universal or
about any topic you think the spirit would like to converse about.
You may get thought forms and mental images as you talk
to the spirit - such as an image of the spirit.
When a new entity comes through - always get its name -
who they came to talk to - and what they want go discuss.
A word may come through with all of the letters but in
the wrong order. That is why it is best to have someone not using the
board - writing the letters as they come through. A name may come
through as ICMAHEL - meaning MICHAEL. Remember that not all spirits
speak in your language. Some spirits have trouble spelling words or
creating sentences.
You might get a 'trapped spirit' that seeks help going
'to the light. If this a matter of you releasing this spirit because you
have an emotional link to it - you must 'set the spirit free' and
forgive whatever it wishes you to forgive it from the time you knew it
in the third dimension. Many spirits are trapped here and will 'guide'
you to a Ouija board to tell you to release them.
If you do not know the spirit who wishes to be released
- then send it away and say you are not qualified to help them.
If spirits ask you to do weird things - stop using the
board for that session. Anything negative being written on the board
means you must put the board away for that session whether you want to
or not. The entity should leave by your next session - which can be that
day or some time later.
You do not have to work with the same group of friends
each time you use the board.
Do not ask spirits to bring you things you want but
would not otherwise have. All spirit have their boundaries. You must
find out the limitations of the spirit you are talking to.
Never ask spirits to do harm to others.
Never use the board to control others.
Do not let others use your board when you are not using
it.
Keep the board in a special place of your choosing.
Do not get addicted to the board.
Using a Ouija board is not a 'medium' for everyone. Some
people get it immediately others never do. This seems to have no bearing
on whether one is psychic or not. Many psychics can't work a Ouija
Board.
With experience you can learn to channel your deceased
loved ones and entities from other realms.
Some days the board may work for you. Others days you
may get no responses. Spirits do have work to do you know!
