What the hell. I tried these with a few friends out in a forest but there useless. Has anyone found these to provide any connection to the spirits. I have had petter spiritual connection through toilet seets. If i seem pissed its caused it was a waste of money and time and and if anyone has any idea how these things work please do tell.

I myself have keept from ever using Ouiji boards out of fear that nothing would happen. I like the idea though. I just think that the disappointment would kill a part of me, if i tried and nothing happened. Maybe the forest isnt the best place to channel spirits though, maybe you need a place where peoples life have been bound from birth to death. Like a house or an apartment or something like that. After all, it is has been a while since we all lived and died in the forests.

Yea the forrest probly wasn't the best of places, I am planning to give it a try in a cemetary or this old property that has been quite desolite as of late. The house on it, is ment to have been built in the 1800s witch should be good. If it still doesn't work well then i can atleast say it i tried.

I have a thought that maybe building especially, can hold energies from people who have lived there. Because people have spend so much time there. Anyway, if you get any succes with it, maybe you could let us now, here on the board.
By the way, i just noticed that you live in Australia. (Cool) Bush or city? Sometimes i wish i had been born in the bush of Australia. But if i had been, i would probably wish i had been born i the big city. (The grass is always greener..............)
Anyway, congrats on living a place where there are still live wild animals. All we have here is small birds, foxes and rats. (and maybe a small deer or two ). Ironically i love nature and animals with all my soul, but i guess thats easy if a giant crocedile isnt trying to eat you every time you venture outside. (lol)

I wont be trying the ouiji boards out until this weekend when i have time to spare. Until then i can't do much with.
I live on the east coast in queens land in a saburben area. Its not the city or the country, just the medium. Our city are not that big. Its a good thing we are in the southern hemisfere rather then north, with europe asia and U.S.A, because then we clame things like; Tallest tower below the equater or biggest swing, etc. As 4 crocs well i have only seen them in captivity.

Well.
The grave yard as expected was useless.but the house. Ok we got som of a response. So i wrote down a number on paper and put the paper in the center of the board. The board gave us a number but it was not even close. this leads me to believe that it was someone in our group. I would like to try in actual haunted house, by my self.

I was wondering if you got the Milton-Bradley version of the Ouiji Board... You know, the commercial mass-produced party game, the one that little Christian college students play with for shits and giggles one night while drunk, and then blame 5-years later when they realize their life sucks.
Anyway... if you have a plastic planchett (the pointer thingy, in case I didn't spell that right) I might suggest replacing it with something non-synthetic. I find that magics work better with things that are natural or made, using a transparent glass or something else might allow a better flow of energy.
Another possible problem could be the board. Many of the people I've seen using oracles like the Ouiji Board are actually using homemade versions. "Angel" and "Spirit" boards; which seem to give better or, at least, more consistent results; are usually made by the person who uses them. They are often planks of would into which the alphabet and response cues have been burned or carved, or they were painted on the surface.
Have you tried anything like charging or consecrating the board? Did you do anything with or to the board yet, like use it as the focus of a summoning ritual? You may also wnat to think about cleansing or purifying the board, to remove the influences of commercial mass production or any friend who just thought it was a game and a crock (Really, no pun intended).
Hope this helps...

My idiot kin tried an ouiji board in a cemetary, and then my room, some candles fell onto the carpet, and the ouiji board showed nothing, it was a waste of time.

I think a ouija board is better at contacting your unconscious thoughts more than any actual spirits, though if you are sensitive to spiritual presence I guess you could channel their answers through it. It's like using a pendulum to answer simple questions: your own muscles give it movement, yet you don't know what the answers will be, because they haven't been aknowledged by your conscious mind yet. In a way, it's a meditating tool, while for occultism, it could be an amplifyer for a pre-existing force just like a divining rod. In any way, a ouija board may help you decode a message, but there has to be a message to begin. It won't make the ghost come.

I have held a pendulum in my hand, and without moving my hand at all it as moved in what ever pattern i have desired. Is thi what you mean by the comparisen? shail

Yes. I did mean it was a mean to amplify an information already present, though sometimes the answer can be not the truth but what is wished to be heard, if concentration or discipline lacks. A pendulum or a ouija board would be equally useless if operated by a robot because it's the user who have the information sought through it, and the tool merely helps in decoding it. The human does the job, in other words.

hmmm... I was not actually moving my hand at all> wether or not the other participants where idk. But i was in a meditative trance to silence as much thought as well.
when i say it didn't work i meant that the words were comlete jibberesh. I can remember a couple of them,(athxpqdmagar,no and apinzwertin) i ran them through search engine and online translator and so on, but nothing. I write no because it went on to the no. These words came up after asking question like are you there and who are you.

I know its nothing but here it is anyway, apinzwertin sounded familiar to me so i also made a search. Zwertin is apparently a jewish name.
apinzwertin is an interesting word. The letters apin can represent a lot of different things today. The only ancient use i found was from the cuniform tablets called Mul Apin. If we overlook spelling then the word "Apin" is in itself interesting. Appin (or apin apainn) is a place-name. There is an appin in Scotland, Canada and Australia. But it is clearly a vague interpretation. Also there supposedly lived an english merchant named Joseph Appin who died in 1689 according to "The Red Book of Appin", but this is merely meaningless speculations on my part. I hope you will excuse it.
