Hi, I'm new and really want to know what's the difference between Quija and Psychic Circle, if there is any.
Thanks,
June
There really is no difference in what they do. The Ouija Board is more simple with just letters and numbers, and has a very bad reputation (which I'm so tired of.) The Psychic Circle is fancy and colorful and has all sorts of different things on it, such as astrology and colors and stuff like that.
As I said in my last post, I've used it several times and never liked it very much because it was just too complicated.
However, the fact is that both are used to make contact with the spirit world. In that respect, there is virtually no difference. You still need to do protection rituals, as you would for many different forms of divination, and you still contact the spirits in the same way. Only the variety of how the message comes through is different.
I will say, however, that I believe there is one other difference, and that is this: If you have negative feelings about the Ouija Board, I think our own feelings and our own energies play into what we attract for ourselves. So all of these people who rail on the Ouija Board, I think, perhaps it's very legitimate that they *have* had negative experiences, but I think it's because they believed that they would. I think if you have a board that is more "friendly" and you think you might get freaked out with a Ouija Board, then probably that 'friendly' board *will* be friendlier to you.
I just read a book on becoming a medium. The one thing that sticks out to me that would apply to this is her saying that *we* control spirit. If we don't want negative spirit to enter, *we* have the power to keep them out.
The problem is that the Ouija Board has gotten such a bad rap for so long, it even freaks us out. I think that's a bad thing. It's fear mongering. Because if you think about it, how different is that than a fundamentalist Christian saying that reading the tarot is 'the work of the devil' and will bring evil into your life? Not a lot, imo.
