THE HISTORY AND ORIGINS OF THE OUIJA BOARD
The Ouija board is an alphabet board with a pointer used for various forms of divination and/or spirit contact.
The Ouija board dates back to ancient times. In China before the birth of Confucius, similar instruments were used
to communicate with the dead. In Greece divination was done with a table that moved on wheels to point to
signs, which were interpreted as revelations from the "unseen world." The rolling table was used through the
nineteenth century. Other such devices were used by the ancient Romans as early as the third century A.D.,
and in the thirteenth century by the Mongols. Some Native Americans used "squdilatc boards" to find missing
objects and persons, and obtain spiritual information.
In 1853 the planchette came into use in Europe.The Ouija enjoyed enormous popularity during and after World
War I, when many people were desperate to communicate with loved ones killed in the war and Spiritualism was
in a revival.The modern occult origin of this "parlor game" is specifically designed to contact the spirit world. Its
recent development began with prominent French spiritualist, M. Planchette in 1853 and, in 1899 was bought by
William Fuld, an inventor interested in spiritism.
In 1966 Fuld, often considered the modern "father" of the Ouija board, sold his patent to Parker Brothers. Although
Parker Brothers keeps sales figures confidential, the board has now sold perhaps 20-25 million sets.The board puts
one in contact with the spirit world and as a result it should be considered anything but a game. It continues to be
marketed as as game.Many famous mediums began their trade by experimentation with the Ouija board and what
they came in contact with are various types of spirits up to and including entities and elementals which should not
be confused with some dissassociated spirit of a loved one or not. Some even advise against using it.
My conclusion is this on ouija boards we experimented with several older wooden boards not the parker brothers
paper type,but real crafted boards some made in the heart of ritual,these boards were very resonant (energized),
and i hate to think of posible outcomes if such boards were to be used by amatuers or those with no real background,
whether said outcomes be psychological only in nature,or something of a more paranormal aspect,in our tests we got
results every time from these old boards,a board fresh out of a parker brothers box isnt going to be much of a threat
but with continued use and focusing of energy it too could become resonant and pose a danger.
So unless you are well versed in banishing rituals or the setting of wards,i mean truly versed not a read a book master,
dont play with ouija boards they arent toys,however if youve done some homework and prepared yourself properly you
can undertake the use of a divination tool which is what a ouija board is whether that use be medium based or otherwise,
the most powerful board we came across was a blood board made of a type of black hardwood known as obeah,this board
was consecrated in ritual and gave such contact that a triangle of the art was needed and the proper banishment ritual,
so its no joke,or game
I'll leave you with this from a medieval philosopher,practitioner,and contibutor to the birth of modern medicine

I have heard some talking about demons, Ouija and possesion. I know I didn't touch the board before my first attack, but that doesn't mean my parent didn't. The major problem with the board is that it has become the "forbidden game". I don't know anyone that did not play it once in their teen or pre-teen years. Why? For the rush. Morbid curiousity. All of the above. Everyone knows you are not supposed to play with the board and everyone has heard an "urban legend" about someone who was haunted afterwards
What people don't realize is that there is nothing magical about the board. It is the conscious act of communicating with the dead that gets you into trouble. The board does not open portals and it doesn't close them either. To a demon or spirit the board is nothing more than a parlor trick to lure a person into communication. What people don't realize is that the person running the board it acting as a medium for the demon or spirit that they are communicating with. You not only invite the presence into your life but into your body as well. Same thing goes for automatic writing, pendulums. When you act as a medium for a demon or spirit it creates a bond with you, it know your most intimate parts of your soul because it mingles with it when you act as a medium. It knows how to get you to trust it and it know how to strike fear into your life.
You can’t fool a demon with foolish acts of false bravery. If you think telling a demon to “get out” or “leave” when it starts to scare you is going to do the trick you are in for a rude awakening. There are three basic stages a demon will take you through.
First it will get you to trust it, let it into your life until it knows you better than you know yourself because then it knows how to break you. I have battled with an entity for most of my life. It came to me when I was just a toddler, 2 ½ to be exact. It presented it self in the most non threatening way it could, and it worked. I played with this entity for quite some time before my parents began to worry and tried to put a stop to it.
Second it will scare you till you go insane and break you down until you feel that there is no hope for the situation, make you feel inferior to it, make you buckle under it pressure, drive you into depression until you submit. There are so many ways a demon can influence you life. Suggestion can be a powerful thing. I once read a case of demonic infestation where a couple had reached this second stage. When they were at home they had horrific fights with each other, neither or them ever knew what the fights were about or how they started. What they did realize was that the moment that they left the house the feeling of rage against one another would leave just as suddenly as it came on. And they would be loving and affectionate as they ever were to each other. When they returned to the house the same feeling of rage towards one another would consume them again and they would accuse one another of things that they wouldn’t even conceive of under normal circumstances. In my case, it uses fear to get to me. I have slept with the lights on for 25 years because I know it is waiting for me in the dark. It will rarely come for me in the light, but as soon as the lights go out on it is there waiting to terrorize me once more.
Third it will attempt possession. I am attaching an excerpt from my book of my personal experiences with this unknown entity. The excerpt is about a brush with possession that I had experienced myself.
I was not able to stop the attacks, but I was able to ‘wear HIM out’ as they were happening. HIS tactics started to change. Instead of ‘BAM HERE I AM’ he got sneaky, waiting until I fell asleep, almost every time, trying not to let me know HE was there, and very effectively at that. Now I don’t know about anyone else, but I am at my most vulnerable at that state, not knowing what was going on until he had a good hold on me. When I would wake, I would be off guard and completely defenseless. The harder I tried to fight it, the harder he would crush the life out of me. (I do mean that literally) I actually could feel the veins in my head ready to explode because all of the blood was being forced into head. Other things started to change. I would have the dreams eventually that would tell me to wake up, be completely awake and not be able to open my eyes. I thought that was worse than the attacks themselves, not being able to open my eyes and see what was going on around me. Then the attacks would get more and more progressed as time went on. I started loosing control of my eyes totally. My eyes would open, but I my eyes would be scanning the room, like HE was getting inside of me and looking out of them. That is the most Violated feeling that I have ever experienced
The first time that I lost control of my eyes was 1995, I was lying on my back on the bed and had my arms folded behind my head. I must have only been there 10-15 minutes when my roommate came into the bedroom and yelled at me to wake up. I was totally awake and could hear everything that she was saying to me. I just could not open my eyes. I used just about every ounce of energy I had just to crack one eye open. She started to try to explain that she was leaving and would be back in about 2 hours. I could not move at all. The only thing that I was able to do was to get a few faint grunts out because I couldn’t open my mouth. She could hear the grunts and asked me if I was ok, but I wasn’t able to answer. Then my eyes opened and just scanned the room really rapidly. All I wanted was to be able to look at her and just get a whisper out the word help, but I couldn’t even look at her. Then she turned and walked right out of the door, I felt my heart just sink. I passed out after that and I don’t remember and thing that happened after that. When I woke about an hour or so later, I felt like I must have pulled 3 or 4 muscles in my neck and back because I strained so hard struggling to move during the attack.
I hope this information helps someone.
