I would not recommend the use of ouija boards to anyone not trained in the respectful and light-filled use of the occult. I have participated in ghost investigations for a few years now. I only began doing this work after years of training with a good teacher and education with other experienced psychics. You need to understand the forces on the astral plane before you go knocking on their door. Unprotected, untrained dabblings in the metaphysical can cause great harm.
Find yourself some loving, light-filled teachers. Do not jump blindly into an area that can cause great harm to you if you do know its nature, its inhabitants and their behaviors.
A loving soul who crossed over that I knew while she was alive, warned me" Honey, be careful. If folks aren't good people in life, when they come over here (astral plane) they aren't any different."
You only want to communicate with high vibrating entities. Remember that. Lower entities are to be avoided at all cost. You must always surround yourself with love and light. Do not ever attempt to call spirit when you are intoxicated, under the influence of drugs, depressed, lonely, angry, confused or upset. Remember, the energy that you radiate will act like a beacon and pull entities of the same vibration to you. Be careful!!!!!!!!!
