i have agree with you Evie. I've been to a couple places overseas (they don't sell them where i live) and its so worrisme that this tool or 'game' is trivialised and sold like a Monopoly set. I've never personally been a participant of the game but i have been in the vicinity of where the game was played and let me tell you. As much as a person would tell you its a bunch of hocus pocus, the atmosphere after a session is no laughing matter.

...and I sensed it was no toy or anything to take lightly so I threw it away. I heard Sylvia Brown say on Montel Williams show that people who use this board are opening portals for negative spirits to come in.  She also said that it's nothing to play with and that a person or persons can get harmed seriously if they call up spirits that they don't know. She advises to steer clear of them period. I agree with Sylvia.

they can be toys or real - your choice.  

It is a tool, like a wand or a crystal.  the person using it is what matters.  

Yes, you can open dark (or angelic) portals or summon spirits that are stuck on this side and the standard banishing and dismissal rituals would best be applied if you are using this for evocation.  This would be no different as though a medium was using a crystal ball for a seance.  Although I don't honestly know of many seances being performed now adays and those that I have been to did not use the "Wiccan" or Solomonistic formats for summoning (and hence, did not use banishing or dismissal rituals).

If you would use them I would suggest that you do so as a toy unless you are willing to learn the proper methodology for banishment,  containment and dismissal.

You are right, what you say should be taken into consideration, I personally steer clear of these boards because I do not know how to properly utilize their energies. Point well taken, much thanks!!!!!!

I used to use one years ago (most of us did), great fun, as long as you don't get carried away when you get Adolf Hitler signing on.
Are they dangerous - no.
It's like a gun or a knife, it's a tool. It take a human mind to make them dangerous.
