True Experience; Burning the Board ... Sur5r |
True story.. read first half of this story here: http://www.unsolvedmysteries.com/usm444613.html
The Disposal of my ouija board
~~~~~ I have to admit.. I did not recieve any kind of negativity from the board after putting it in the closet that night my friends had used it. It was pretty strange not seeing it when I was looking for it, however. I was mindset to dispose of the board and felt nothing harmful towards me from those thoughts. I was beginning to feel like the board just vanished and got rid of itself... almost like understanding it had to go, Lol..
~~~~~ During one of my many spurts of house cleaning, I found the board in that same room, in the very same closet. It was slightly out of view due to a few parcels of other things that had fallen onto it. My cat that I owned at that time, may have been the culprit there. In fact.. that is what I believe to have happened! He was always getting into stuff he should not be getting into.. I put it on the shelf again, knowing what I had to do with it, but I continued on with the house cleaning and got my things first, into order!
~~~~~ It did not hit me right at first, but as evening fell and I looked out of my window, I saw the moon had been in waning cycle. The time was right and the waning period would be passed within the next few nights, by the way the moon sat upon the lap of the sky.. I was not prepared for the ritual, but did manage to put a few things together and did have on hand everything that was needed to dispose of the board properly.
~~~~~ I went to retrieve the board from the closet off that shelf, after finding it. This time, it was still there. I wrapped it in the white cloth I originally had for it the other night, now about two weeks later. While wrapping it I chanted a few things and did a ritual I will not go into here on the post, sorry. As I finished wrapping the board, in it's box, with the planchette and all its energies, I felt a slight ripple on the cloth as I held it. My hands have always been very psychically enhanced in this way. I feel that because I have the hands of a psychic healer, it was that energy that protected me from any kind of harm from the ouija board, as others had come to see in it from all the negative legends out there.. except that one time my friends used the board.
~~~~~ I thought about how many times I had used that same board with another friend that was not present during the domination match I came to call it, and when the two of us had spoke with the board, we recieved very positive messages. I cleared my mind. I showered. I meditated. I went outside and lit up the burn barrel. (In that day and time, it was still permitted whenever, Lol.. this was in the late 1970's..). I also brought with me a few things necessary to stick on the burning pile before I placed the board. It was 11pm. I remember looking at some clumsy watch I used to wear back then *grins* When I put the red elixur on the fire, I cannot explain the flame dance I saw. It was too magical for words, to be honest. The fire was charged and prepared.
~~~~~ I placed four large stones around the burning barrel to form a square to outine the Four Quarters, and then placed one smaller stone between the Quarters to outline the quadrants. Two stones were seated at the entrance to the circle door, one on each side, to represent Goddess and God. I went inside and got the box with the ouija board in it, wrapped in that white cloth, now ladden with cat hairs because the cat was sleeping on it.. I silently walked back to the fire, carrying the boxed and wrapped board at waist height. The fire was ablaze and crackling from the hickory wood chips, counted out by explicit number, for ritual purpose, and for intent of cause. I placed the board on a raised, flat rock, that represented a sacred space within a sacred space (the altar), that was already consecrated with seasalt, wine, milk and honey. I swept the area then prepared to draw the Circle. I was pretty happy that I lived out of the city limits at that time, and could do this openly.. neighborhoods would not understand such a thing!
~~~~~ I lit the white candles on that sacred rock where the board was resting. Three of them, in an arch shape around the box. I laid out two pre-measured strands of ribbon, one black and one red. I chanted some things I will not repeat due to privacy reasons and Universal Law. I picked up the box from the altar rock and walked widdershins (counter-clockwise) thirteen times around the barrel, backwards. I stopped at the altar rock and picked up the red and black ribbon and began to wrap that around the cloth and the board. So intent with this mission, to be as correct as possible and to not cause harm to the board, since no harm was expected to touch me, I was careful and mindful of the Law of Three. I cannot reveal the chant I used as I was wrapping the ribbon around the box, on this post.
~~~~~ I took three steps backwards from where I was standing.. this brought me further back from the burning barrel, yet still close enough to toss in the board. When I took that last step backwards, I stumbled a little, but did not fall. As I regained balance, the cloth felt like it rippled again. I got the feeling it was waking up or maybe preparing itself? I held the board towards the flame, said a few more things and tossed the board in the fire, and took three more steps backwards, and one step to the right. At first, there was nothing. Just a larger flame beginning to feed upon the contents.
~~~~~ I stood there watching the flame for quite some time. I was starting to think about releasing the energies of the Guardians and quadrants, sending them back.... then out of the blue came this ear piercing screeching noise. Not real loud or anything, but it broke the sound of the usual crackle of the burning materials in the barrel. It continued and began to sound almost like the shrieking of someone burning to death in extreme agony. I wanted to be saddened by this sound, but I was not. I just watched it burn. A few minutes after the screaming I could see a face in the fire. It was a face, there was no denying that, it had eyes, a nose, mouth and tongue. It was a little horrifying to see a face along with the screaming sounds, and I had to sit down on the ground right where I once stood.
~~~~~ Within about what may have been a total of ten or fifteen minutes for all of this, it finally quieted down. The flames had now become small wisps of color below the rim line of the burn barrel. I knew it was then a good time to close everything and send the Entities back with a huge thanks. I cut open the door to the Circle, to allow fresh energies to return before sending off Goddess and God Energies, still remaining. I let the stones remain around the barrel until there were just ashes and dust remnants. It was then that I would scoop up the ashes of the board and bury them properly, near a cemetary. For at that moment, all I wanted to do was go eat something and get a drink. The ashes would sit there for three days before lifting them up. I needed to ground myself, Lol..
~~~~~ That alone is a mysterious happening that I was a part of, after burying those ashes three days later.

Certainly I would use one again with the right like mind on the other side of the planchette. And, as long I personally bought the board and it did not belong to anyone else. One never knows what lurks amoung the shadows of another's curiosities (-: |

Very interesting story. I didn't know you were suppose to burn the board. After some very strange happenings, I simply busted mine up, stomped on the planchette and threw it away. Hopefully the garbage man didn't have anything bad happen to him! |

I've heard that if you hear it scream when you burn it that you'll die soon after. Guess it's not true lol, or the energies you invited into the circle protected you from that. Very interesting all the same. |

Hmm, White Phoenix, that is interesting! I never heard of that happening if you hear it scream.. I am still alive after burning it over 25 years ago, so that myth is not true in my case. But, that is a good point about bringing in the protection energies to prevent that from happening. Hmm, now you make me wonder if some of the natural disasters I have gone through was because of the board.. like the fire, flood and tornado, and I lost just about everything I owned from those three disasters. Makes me ponder the 'whys ' in my life a little more though sometimes (-: |

I can`t remember the title but I had written about an episode my daughter and I had whilst doing Ouija once...it scared the bejeezers outta us!...That board is now gone...but not from my hands...I feel someone took it...But what you say is correct...You never can tell what is lurking therein....Also...my Mom and Brother had burned my Ouija board that I bought when I had first started working....they say black smoke rose from it. I will never forget that. |

Yes, I did forget to mention about the smoke that began to roll out of there, I think I was more interested in that scream like sound, Lol.. plus, I did use a little charcoal lighter fluid to start the fire too, so maybe that could have been what I thought I was seeing,, in my case anyways.. |
