    ouji boards are a useful way to randomly generate very strainge sounding words and have fun with someone else while doing so.

    i've used them and as near as i can tell from my own experience, that's all they are, and pretty much more or less all that the're good for.

    Until every piece of glass in the apartment smashes simultaneously and the perfectly healthy 22 y/o girl sitting next to you has a massive heart attack, nearly killing her...

    Ouija boards are not toys, they are not to be used as light entertainment and I strongly suggest not using them unless you have a comprehensive understanding of how they work and how to use them correctly.

    oh, definately. It isnt a game. I mean... Ive had friends who Ive watched use it, and they treated it as a game, spelling out a bunch of stuff and joking about it ... so to them it seemed like a game. But they werent "deep" to begin with.
    On the other hand... I and my sisters took turns on it... (and we are all pretty open minded and ... "sensitive" ... so to speak) and I can tell ya, if you are "receptive" ... you will get a response on Ouiji. It definately IS real, be it spirits, or, I-dont-know-what ... but ... while some of the responses can be knowledgable, silly or plain profound... others can be harsh and scary. I had one who obviously did not like me and moved the piece around near viollently ... it shook me up so much that I've stayed away from the board since then...

    I have read where very receptive people can even take on spirits or something from it ... or the spirits can use the person rather, kind of like a mediator thing... and for someone who doesnt know how to control something like that it can be a real bad thing because the spirits (or whatever it is) can tap into that person from then on, because that persons mind is more opened and aware in that realm ......... I dont remember exactly how it goes, but it was something like that. Anyways ... thats what bothered me, because I am usually very "aware" and used to have alot of premonitions and things... so I could easily get pulled into that kind of thing .... but Im rambling here... so anyways...

    I think if you are going to use it, have a good reason, and read up on it before you do. Its not a toy...

    I wanna use one. and so does one of my best friends. problem is, she's apparently psychic and she says she see ghosts (I can't really say she's lying cause i don't see what she sees) and her house is shit scary. I remember hearing a tap downstairs turn of by itself. so we're kinda both too scared to use one.
    does it matter on how many people you use?

    its best done with 2 people.

    Dang Id be scared to use one in a house that has energy vibes....
    I grew up in a very strange 1800's farmhouse.. I always felt an uneasiness about something there -in it, or around it- and.. it wasnt a good presence, it was... unnerving. Frightening. Years later, I got to talking about it with my younger sister and she agreed that she felt very similarly about that house. I had some serious anxiety/panick problems and bad insomnia when I lived there too, and I think it may have been because I was sensitive to more spiritual realms. (Of course I was very "churchy" back then so I spent alot of time praying and meditating and that just compounded my sensitivity!. lol.) Ive really numbed out since then... and Im rather glad for it. Being sensitive or psychic does have some advantages, its more like a gift really ... being able to see what others cannot, being more in tune with things that may inspire creativity and possibly even can be used to help others................ but also comes with a price. It can drive people to the edge of insanity, knowing too much, seeing too much, feeling too much...

    It was the unseen realm that would trouble me tho. I rarely felt peace. Only when I went out into the woods. At night in that house.... I was so .. nervous. I felt something there. Made me a terribly nervous person, I used to get bad stomache ulcers in my mid-teens, from nervousness. I was such a sensitive person then though. I often was so much more aware than the people around me. I felt like I was floating back and forth between 2 realms...... and never felt normal.

    Years later I contributed these problems of the past to just mental illness... when we moved away from that house when I was about 20, much of my anxiety disorder also subsided, but from then on I suffered severe bouts of depression ..... but I often wonder... is it possible that people who have this "sensitivity" may really be having some mental problems, and paranoia, and its all just in their heads? OR, is it possible that people who are supposedly suffering mental conditions are the way they are because they ARE different, because they DO see more than others, and because this heightened awareness is a bit much for the human mind to handle? There seems to be a great amount of gifted people.... artists, writers, musicians -any of those who are receptive to inspiration- who also are prone to depression, etc. And many spiritual people prone to paranoia. Its hard to say. All I know is.... I am kind of glad to have lost a great deal of the awareness I used to have. Depression numbed me out alot. But Im calmer and I dont have the racing thoughts and crazy vibes I used to get and that spacey "other realm" feeling rarely occurs anymore. Its a relief. Ive moved around alot and its been a huge relief to not feel the feelings I had in that house, too. ......... shit.... Im rambling here again! I guess Ive not talked about this stuff much so its kinda nice to talk about it here............. me and my weird experiences.. yeah .... :rolleyes: ... ok back to the subject ... lol!

    umm... if the house bothers your friend, like, if there seems to be a presence there and it doesnt feel right, then I wouldnt try to communicate with it. I wouldnt even do Ouji in that house! Especially since she claims to see presences.... if she is sensitive, it wouldnt be good to tune into something where she lives, because it might start bothering her all the time. Unless she doesnt feel it is a bad presence, and she wants to know why it is there or something. But .. be careful.... maybe consult with someone experienced in dealing with this sort of thing. Sometimes the unknown is better left alone.
    If it scares both of you... do you really want to try to communicate with it?

    I dont like the idea of doing Oiuji inside a house. Seems like it would just be inviting presences to enter the home (if there arent already some there)...... so my sisters and I (when I did it, I dont anymore) started using it outside, in quiet places... and... that was better...

    Well she says her house has a mixture of sprits, and there's her 'spirit guide' who's always around so she wants to find out more about her house and stuff.
    and I'm just curious, i know i know, curiosity killed the cat. but for me it's better than not knowing. what scares me is only having a teensy bit of information about something and not knowing the full picture.

    it a board with letters on it that two or more people use to communicate with the spirit world.
    ten or so years ago I was dead against it, however now I have been a witch for a long time, I read the tarot, and I feel more open to it.
    I think its a tool thats needs to be used with respect and wisely, if you call on the spirit world and don't know what your doing, its like opening your front door and asking whoever appears to be on your street in
