To: alt.tarot,alt.pagan From: "Bruce Ulanet"Subject: Re: Can Tarot Cards be used effectively At A Séance? Date: Thu, 02 Oct 2003 21:58:40 GMT I will make holy water from the creek that runs in front of the house where we will hold the séance. I will draw it into a clear bottle and "bless" it. Just before we begin, in full view of those that will take part in the séance I will splash some holy water onto the front and back door to "lock the spirits in". Even if it isn't "real" Holy Water, if those attending the séance believe it is real, then it will be real. I know that there are no guarantees one way or the other, but it is an experience we want to try. If a choir comes forth and brings peace and happiness that would be wonderful. If a trickster come forth and tosses an iron pot across the room that would be fine too,(as long as nobody gets hurt). I never heard of anyone dieing, or getting sick at one of these things. I am not the only person in the group that want to do this, but I am the only one asking for a bit of guidance. Since we are going to do this it would be nice to know some things not to do, and/or some things that may help us to have a peaceful experience. There are some that will attend that do not believe in this stuff in the least little bit, but most of us have some level of belief. What we want is a spooky post Halloween scare, & but we don't want to call up the devil.

One lot over was a jail, and most of the foundation is still there. Some people in the neighborhood claim they have heard yelling from that area at night, but my friends have not. Also, there is a kid that lives next door. This kid has an "imaginary" friend named "Jake", and the kids talks and plays with Jake frequently. Very recently this kids parents did a title search and a bit of historical research and found that there indeed was a man named Jake that lived there for almost his entire life. At any rate there is more history than we know. > > > > I want this to be fun, and maybe even get the kind of willies that people can get from a horror movie, but none of us wants to wake up anything evil. > > Then don't do it. There are no gaurantees. Someone, who use to post to alt.tarot, would conjure up The Marx Brothers. So maybe if you could get a harp to go along with the Holy Water.... It might help. > > > Are there any people here that have done this kind of thing that could suggest things to do to help this thing really work well, while not waking up anything evil. We are not doing this to make fun of anyone, any spirit, or anything else.
