Im thinking of buying a ouija board to play for fun and also to test if they are real. I read the reviews on Toys R US website and so many people said it worked.
So I was wondering do they have some sort of magnet attached to the board? also why are they selling it to little kids with some question cards included in the game.
It’s a Ouija board, not a loaded gun. Why wouldn’t they sell it to kids? There’s nothing magical about it.
I would caution against bringing negative influences into your life. I do not think that spirits that remain on earth are the good ones.
my mum has one from like 30 years ago. she said it never worked…
None of these boeards are “real.” You can make anything real in your mind. At least save money by having a cheaper one, or better yet, forget about the whole idea.
It works by the ideomotor effect or by somebody in the group consciously moving the pointer. There’s no magnet, and if they include question cards, it’s to encourage people to have fun if everyone there is too shy or nervous to come up with a question.
They are trying to increase evolution in our children by teaching them to levitate through the Ouija board game. Because of the increase in gasoline prices, parents are being encouraged have their kids floating before Kindergarten in order to save the school district millions of dollars in fuel to operate buses.
Scientific explanation
Rationalists contend that users subconsciously direct the path of the triangle to produce a word that is in that person’s subconscious thought process. This subconscious behavior is known as ideomotor action, a term coined by William Carpenter in 1882. It is also known as automatism.[7] Some people may be convinced that the “powers” of the ouija board are real because they are unaware that they are in fact moving the piece and therefore assume that the piece must be moving due to some other “spiritual force”. The subconscious thought process may produce an answer that is different from what the user expected in their conscious thought process—thus perpetuating the idea that the board has “mystical powers”. The Penn & Teller: Bullshit! episode on Ouija Boards ran an experiment using unbiased participants. Questions were being asked to the late William Frawley with very strong answers. The participants were then blindfolded and the board was turned 180 degrees without their knowledge. With continued questioning, the planchette then traveled to bare areas of the board where the participants believed the “Yes” and “No” marks were located, but in fact were not.
If they were for real I don’t think they would be selling them as toys. Waste of money if you ask me.
No magnet. No tricks. The ouija is a direct pathway to the demonic world. It’s as simple as that.
