Answer 1

a device consisting of a small board, or planchette, on legs that rest on a larger board marked with words, letters of the alphabet, etc., and that by moving over the larger board and touching the words, letters, etc., while the fingers of spiritualists, mediums, or others rest lightly upon it, is employed to answer questions, give messages, etc.  

Also called Ouija board.

hope this helps...

Answer 2

Ouija means fun.They're fun to play with.Fun to scare foolish people with.Nothing is more hilarious then silly folks cringing over a board game.Their dire warnings of demons and spirits let loose into our world.Those are just too funny.

Answer 3

It's a combination of "Oui" in French and "ja" in German, both meaning "Yes".  It doesn't relate to evil at all, except for the common myth that Ouija boards somehow conjure evil spirits. It's just a fun, silly board game. You can buy one at Toys R Us if you're interested.

Answer 4

Ouija is a combination of the French (oui, pronounced wee) and German (ja, pronounced yah) words for "yes".  It's really just a brand name of something that has been used for years under a variety names.  The common element throughout has been something called the ideomotor effect.  This is when a person subconsciously moves the planchette in anticipation of a perceived or desired answer to a question.  Then of course there are those who move the thing on purpose.  The Ouija board is just a parlor game.  There is nothing inherently evil about the physical equipment or the use of that equipment.

Answer 5

Ouija means "yes". There are people that like to tell "yes, yes" because the word "Ouija" is a combination of two words, french word "oui" meaning "yes",  and German"ja" also meaning "yes".

Ouija is a fun game, you can buy it ready or create one by yourself if you want to communicate with the Spirit, asking questions and receiving answers.

It is a table or board with the alphabet written on it. Usually , the letters are placed in a circle and in the middle is a drinking clear glass. Also, there are the numbers from 1 to 9, good for ages, dates  or other numerical field and astrological signs.

The spiritual energy enters through the left side of your body and when you feel it, ask ouija-board your question and wait for answer

You can ouija alone or with another person. Important to have both a positive energies. There is not a place for fear. People who feel fear are those with a negative energy and are thinking that is dangerous to use it., then ,they easy link it to Evil action. But if you listen to me,having a positive energy only, the Evil will go to sleep.

I, personally, love to use often an automatic writing that is more effectively in my opinion.

Have fun and good luck.

Answer 6

The word doesn't relate to evil.  You can see that otheres say that the name Oiuja (pronounced WEE-ja) is a combination of oui (French for "yes") and ja (German for "yes'). Alas, that was made up by Mr. Fuld, one of the creators of the "game".  Another story is that Mr. Kennard, the other co-creator, thought Ouija was Egyptian for "good luck." It isn't really, but the board itself supposedly told him, so who was he to argue?

Answer 7

Answer 8
