This application provides detailed instructions for conducting a séance using a spirit board, commonly known as a Ouija board. It suggests that participants create an appropriate atmosphere by dimming the lights and lighting candles, which is believed to enhance the spiritual experience. This preparation sets the stage for a more immersive connection with the spiritual realm, ensuring that participants are in a focused and open mindset to engage in the activity.
To begin the séance, users are instructed to place their fingers on the planchette, the movable piece used to indicate responses from spirits. This initial step is crucial for establishing a connection, as it signifies to the spirit that the participants are ready to communicate. The instructions emphasize the importance of clearly stating a welcoming question, specifically starting with "Is anyone there?" to invite responses from any spirits present.
Once the session begins, participants are encouraged to ask polite and straightforward questions that could reveal information about the spirit they are communicating with. This can range from basic inquiries, such as the spirit's name or age, to more complex inquiries about their existence and intentions. Importantly, the guidelines highlight the need for respect and caution, urging users to avoid provoking any restless spirits, which could lead to unpredictable situations.
In the event that a spirit becomes upset during the session, the instructions advise quickly guiding the planchette to the "Goodbye" section of the board to conclude the interaction. This action is meant to safeguard participants from potential disturbances that may arise from an angry spirit. However, it is noted that some spirits may resist this farewell, requiring persistence from the participants to end the session safely. Additionally, the application provides a disclaimer about the lack of scientific proof regarding the effectiveness of spirit boards, emphasizing that the experiences are subjective and may vary.
