    Did you have a positive or negative experience playing with the Ouija board?

    I've never played with the Oujia board and coming from a Christian home, it was absolutely forbidden.  I'm wondering what type of experiences people had with them.

    I remember someone bringing one into the house and Mom flipped!  I remembered playing with one with some friends between the ages of 9 to 10.  Too my knowledge, it was an "uneventful" occurrence but I've heard others whose first time went rather badly.  Perhaps, we simply were covered by the prayers of our family patriarchs.  Personally, I believe it opens doors into the supernatural realm and when tampered with by novices brings much havoc into their lives that are not easily reversed.

      I definitely agree.  It just seems to be a portal for negative spirits and such.  I'm glad to hear that you didn't experience inything horrific as a result of it.

    I've never played with a ouiji board but for a long time i have thought about trying it out, out of curiosity. However, I also have fears about opening a door that I would rather not be opened or something happening that I would regret.

      Yes, I could see that.  One of my co-workers told me that she asked the board how many children she would have when she was an early teen and it told her 3. She is around 60+ and guess how many children she has...3.  Creepy.

    The use of a 'home made board'  - if you can call a glass-topped table a board - and working alone, was my initial introduction to a lifetime of being able to receive contacts via the automatic pen and then, later, my keyboard.

    My advice.  Be careful!   Don't assume that everything you get via such contact is going to be of any more value than contacts with people who are still living on earth with us.   Dying does not necessarily make us any wiser (except in the knowledge that we've survived this so called thing called dying) or more moral. 

    In other words, don't take any action put to you by the so called 'spirits,' than you would from persons who simply talk, telephone or write to you on the Earth Plane.

    And work by yourself.  Who knows, even your best friends might be simply having a joke at your expense.

      Hi Tusitala Tom, That's interesting...I've heard of automatic writing but never knew anyone who was able to do it, so...how does that work?  Do you just ask questions out loud and then allow it to write/type the answers?

    I have never played with one, and never intend to.
    Have heard really bad things about people playing with these boards.
    As a matter of fact, The Exorcist was based on a true story of a young girl who played with a oujia board and that's when all the evil things started happening.

      Wow, Efficient Admin, I didn't know that.  Thanks for the info.
