My first ouiji board experiance

@tiddy Tiki, if we have the ouiji board session and you vomit blood I will very calmly fold up the ouijia board, throw it in the garbage, throw the garbage down the ravine, and just walk out by the lake and sit on the bench and contemplate the actions in my life that led up to that moment and I will be scarred for the rest of my life.

I agree with what @chocopyro is saying. Either ouijaboards are not very accurate or ghost are friggin lazy. If I had to venture a theory it has to be at the exact right time and place for it to actually work. @swadian yeah, I heard stories about people who used the ouijaboard too much and their house became haunted to the point where crap was flying around everywhere. I definately don't want that to happen in my house so I will never use it more than once a year. Most of the stories I read about people encountering "demons" have very horrific nightmares for a while

@Arc Yeah, pretty much. Time, place, brain wavelengths, ambient energies, the type of spirits you are reaching through to... Long list of variables. Elementals in particular tend to come through as gabbled messes. The board itself has no power. It's more like the people using it are the ones who move it, not the spirits. In reality, what you are really doing is dowsing. Generally when people run into problems with ouija boards, its because they didn't ground or neutralize the energies before closing up shop. Dowsing is similar to channeling in that regard, since it requires you to open yourself up spiritually. Its like rolling down the car window to hear someone. Do that in a bad neighborhood, and forget to roll them up when you park, or lock the car doors, and the wrong kinda people, insects, or wild animals may come lurking in. Easiest way to do that without all the metaphysical spiritual shenanigans is to just take salt packets or a container of cinnamon and kinda wave them around the area over the board like you're trying to sponge up a 3d puddle. Or run your hands through running water if you're doing tarot divinations or normal dowsing.

@sobo275 Well... Short Answer: Yes Long answer: Anyone who has ever seen me get into the subjects of the paranormal and supernatural know that I like to go on three acknowledgements. 1: This is the internet, take anything you read with a grain of salt. (The spiritual community is rampant with con-artists after all.) 2: Of course I could be wrong. And in the event that I am right, it doesn't mean I know everything. 3: I'm merely stating what I personally believe based on my world view and experiences, not telling anyone what they should believe. But I do have experience in the occult. Not magick per say, more in the field of psionics and stuff. Just a medium who is sensitive to things outside of conscious perception, who practices energy manipulation and stuff like that, but it doesn't mean I'm anything special. That's my world view anyways. Ghosts are hard to separate from normality for me. I'm not saying that I entirely deal with them every day per say. But I have crossed paths with human spirits before. (Yay for anecdotes!)

Haha, its cool. I realize I have a tendency to over explain that stuff cause like I feel I need to be careful when saying anything about spirituality, just cause of that sub-sect of people who take everything at face value. Given how subjective spirituality can be, it's really hard to remain objective, or to know if you are picking up on only a small part of something much bigger. If I went around speaking in 100% authority about everything I think I know, and it turns out I was operating on incomplete information and grossly misunderstanding something, then well... You get the picture. It's not a science. Yet.

@chocopyro Out of curiosity, what was the defining moment that led you to believe in ghosts? Personally, I grew up as a Christian (parents loosely followed it), but then kind of tapered off and became agnostic. I guess with all the experiances I've had living in Savannah and the board, I guess I can define myself as a spiritualist. I still believe that someday paranormal science will be taken as a serious profession. There's so much out there we can improve upon.

Speaking of paranormal science, I decided to do a test last night. I took the remote off the wall (the remote that randomly turned the lights on and off), and I moved the remote all the way across the room. I checked the batteries to make sure everything was fine, and then I left it there overnight. I theorized that maybe if I moved the remote to the fan far enough away from the staircase the ghost wouldn't turn it on randomly at night. However, when I woke up this morning, I noticed the light yet again turned on while I was sleeping and the fan was at full speed. Man, I wish I can charge this ghost with an electric bill. I'm going to ask it to pay up in my next ouijaboard session >:(

The closest thing to evicting a ghost is exorcism But no evictions presidents orders. The ghost has rights too
