i believe you ask it questions and then supposedly the spirits direct you to the answer by spelling out, we have one i was never really into it.

A ouija board is a portal or gateway between Earth and the spirit world. The problem with people using it is that there is no way to control whether the spirits who come from are from the light or from the darkness.

It is a ripoff and it is used by a corporation to take peoples money.

Off the internet ouija boards may very often be evil i tried it once i am OK but you cant really know for sure unless you try it.

boards with letters of the alphabet, sometimes with numbers too, sometimes with the words "yes" and "no" on them in an order decided by the designer and space in the centre of the array of characters. The name is said to be derived form the words "oui" and "ja", both meaning "yes".

Ouija borders are a portal between spirits and us. The problem with using a ouija border is often the people who use them do not know how to close the portal if a not so nice spirit wants to come through. Therefore they have no control over who comes through and who doesn't.

kind of boards that can contact the supernatural world around you

# It takes two to Ouija. Usually one person is not able to work the Ouija. Get a friend to use it with you. A male and female is usually recommended. # Timing. Most practitioners suggest using the board at night when, they say, less interference is in the atmosphere. # Create some atmosphere. The Ouija is more fun if you darken the room and light some candles. Turn off the TV and any music to minimize distractions. # Have a seat. The two users should sit facing each other, with knees touching if possible, with the board on their laps. Don't use a table. # Decide on a questioner or medium. Even though both people can ask questions -- or anyone else in the room can -- only one of the users should be the medium (the one to formally ask questions of the board). # Place your fingers on the planchette. You and your partner should place the fingers of both hands very lightly on the planchette, or pointer. # Move it. Purposely move the planchette around in a circle on the board for a moment or two to get it 'warmed up.' # Attitude. Don't let the board control the session. The medium should begin by announcing that the session will only allow an experience that is positive or toward a higher good and that negative energies are not welcome. # Begin simply. Start with a simple question, one that requires a yes or no answer. # Be patient. You might not begin to get answers right away. Give the board a chance to 'warm up.' # Be polite. When the board starts working, thank the board or entities for showing up and communicating with you. # Don't ask stupid questions. Avoid questions such as, 'When am I going to die?' If the board answers, 'in 6 months,' you might just worry about it needlessly. # Don't ask for physical signs. Many experienced users warn against asking for physical signs that the 'spirit' is real or present. # Don't believe everything the board tells you. Just as with any other source of information, don't accept whatever the board says to be the truth or accurate. # Close the board. This is an important step. When you're done with your session, slide the planchette to 'GOODBYE' and remove your hands
