How to Talk to a Spirit

1. Meditate. The most reliable way to connect to a loved one and get clear answers to your life questions is to learn the art of meditation. Basically, meditating helps clear the mind and allows spirits to communicate with you through images, symbols and intuition. Always protect yourself before meditating by imagining yourself filled with a white light and calling for your angels and guides to protect you. Then, clear your mind and begin to breath deeply. Think of your question or spirit you want to contact and see what happens. Meditation takes practice, so keep at it and learn more about the art of meditation.
2. Use a Ouija board. Although Ouija boards are controversial in the world of the paranormal, they can be used effectively to contact spirits. Ouija boards are widely available and, again, before you use one, ask for protection from your guides and angels to help keep your experience safe from negative thoughts and paranormal contacts. Always use the board with another person for safety and keep a record of your results.
3. Try automatic writing. Automatic writing is a form of active meditation where you reach a relaxed state and allow your hand to move over paper without censorship or thought. With pen in hand, many people can receive messages from beyond and, with proper spiritual protection as described above, this can be an interesting way to talk to spirits. Practice your meditation first and then try automatic writing.
4. See a psychic. Finding a reputable psychic may be a good way to start your connection with the spirit world and she can also give you tips on how to contact your spirits yourself. Don't waste your money on neon-sign psychics or carnival side-shows. Save your money and contact a reputable psychic who can truly contact the spirits for you. When you get there don't tell the psychic too much about yourself. Think of the person you want to contact for better results.

We are open and relaxed and if you think of your questions or the spirit you want to communicate with before going to bed, you may bump into them in your dream. Keep a dream journal and pay special attention to the dreams where your loved one shows up and interacts in your dream. She may be trying to tell you something or guide you in some way.

Tips & Warnings

• Get references for local psychics before you put down your cold hard cash. Most reputable psychics will work for under $100 and will be willing to prove herself to you.
• Always protect yourself when trying to reach the spirit world. Ask for protection from your angels and guides and let negative spirits know they are not welcome.
