Moving Glass Page Introduction
Demonstrating that the
Ouija can be more than a game
- as featured at
paranormal.about.com
One nice summer day when I was in seventh grade I saw the Ouija board along with some other games I was putting away. I had been told not to play with it by my brothers and sister but since I had heard it was neat I had to try.
My friend who I will not name was kind of scared at first but then started to go along with the idea. She also thought it sounded neat but she had never heard anything about the Ouija Board so that gave me an advantage.
In my house there is this guest room where we let people sleep if they want to spend the night. I got the Ouija Board and we went in there so our parents wouldn't see us playing it.
When we got on the Ouija Board it was just a game at first but then I started to notice that the Ouija Board said some pretty weird things. It would say things we that thought were in a different language and twist its words around. My friend started to notice how weird it was acting also so I finally asked the question "Who are you?". It said MOEFIA ZA.
I thought it was from another country and stuff (I was only 11-12 years old) so we kept on playing. We asked when it was born and it said 0 BC. We thought it meant that it was never born. So after asking all those questions I asked again what it's real name was.
It said that it was Satan. I started to say the rosary and it sat there and said DAMN YOU over and over again. We both took our hands off the board and ran outside.
We played on the trampoline for a while until my oldest brother who played Ouija Board a lot came home. My friend and I asked my brother what happens if you take your hands off the board. He said that an evil spirit is released. Then we ran back inside and got all our stuff out of the room.
When we were in the room though it felt cold to me. My friend didn't seem to notice but I sure did. It is a feeling I can't explain but it was an odd feeling.
I closed the door to the room and never opened it for two days and didn't go in there for at least three weeks. It did happen to help me go back to church though.
Soon I started to forget about what happened when I started to have nightmares. These nightmares sometimes had me facing evil or fighting it off.
One I remember had me curing people from evil. These people ranged from the all American business woman to the farmers. Then I found myself in a tunnel facing a creature that was really tall. I can't remember it's face but I remember it's skin was blood red. I was about ready to go up against it but I would wake up.
The other ones had me being pulled into the darkness but I screamed for it to stop and it did. Then there was one in which I was in a church with all these people in it. The evil tried to get in but I would throw it in holy water and the evil would go out. I tried to get as many as I could into the church. The evil kept on trying to get in the church but I would know where it was and I would stop it.
The nightmares and all the haunting has now stopped and sometimes I can feel a warm breeze near me. I believe it is a friend of mine who committed suicide. He was a good friend of mine and still kind of watches over me.
The next time I played with the Ouija was when I had one of my other friends over. Then I was hanging around with a bad crowd and she was spending the night. We both decided to play the Ouija Board. This time I was prepared though and put rosaries all the way around the board. I knew who was on the board and so I teased them since I thought it couldn't hurt me. When it said a wrong answer I would start saying the rosary and it would say the right one. You could say I had it in the palm of my hand. Now I don't think it was Satan because Satan could rip me apart in a second. We played this game for both of the two days that my friend stayed.
Then, I would say about a year later my other brother ran away. I was desperate for answers so I played the Ouija Board by myself. I asked where my brother was and it something I don't remember. It was wrong so I started to say the rosary and it said that he was at his ex-girlfriends college staying with her. I asked where he was going and it said to Georgia.
My brother came back after a while and I asked him where he had been. He said he stopped to talk to his ex-girlfriend and then he went to Georgia. I was really shocked at this and I have not forgotten it.
This had gotten me obsessed with demonology. I got books of real life experiences of how they dealt with ghosts that tried to kill them. This book was in fact "The Amityville Horror". I read the author's note and saw that poltergeists usually try to enter girls that are about to reach puberty. I was during those times and I have wondered if the thing that was haunting me in my dreams wasn't just some poltergeist. I haven't had many nightmares since then.
Now I am still haunted by my friend that committed suicide but I don't mind him because he just gets my attention sometimes by turning off my tape player or sending a warm breeze up my spine in my room when nothing could cause wind. I hope to find a way so that he can rest which I am working on now.
skeptika's note:
Many hauntings are neutral or negative, so it is pleasing to hear about another positive haunting but the idea of exorcising a friendly spirit is not one that is common. Does anyone have any suggestions for setting CRM's friend to rest?
Plus is there anyone else with experiences with poltergeists? Or dream invasions?
A piece of advice, don't ask questions that you might not like the answer to. When my beloved and I laid the ground rules for our experience, we decided that we wouldn't ask who was talking to us (although that did become clear) and we wouldn't ask any questions about the future. The last was very important because a friend of my beloved had asked when she would die and the spirit answered SOON. She did in fact die in a car accident very shortly afterwards. I do not know if that was a result of asking the question or not but I'd prefer not to risk it.
BKT's comment:
I have closed the door to several spirits by encouraging them to come (in dreams, by feeling - music, etc) and then very lovingly telling them that it is time for them to go and that I am not comfortable communicating with them. If it is in a dream, try hugging them or giving them some other comfortable signal of farewell. If there is something they need to tell you, give them the opportunity, even if this means contacting someone who channels (I had a friend who did this for me for no charge). This has worked for me with a grandmother who died of Alzheimer's and a good friend who died of AIDS.
An update:
C.R.M. has been able to lay her friend to rest. She told him that she loved him and the weird things stopped happening to her.
Between us, C.R.M. and I have discovered some interesting things related to "MOEFIA ZA". A search on the internet reveals only a few references to the word moefia and nothing for moefia za. One of the references to moefia relates to the history of Christianity. In the middle of the third century AD, there was a Roman Emperor called Decius who was suppressing uprisings in the outer provinces, including one called Moefia according to this biblical history and Moesia according to all other records. (There is a correlation via a neighbouring province called Dacia, which mentioned in both the biblical history and standard Roman history.)
Moesia sat above ancient Macedonia, about where modern Serbia is. Interestingly enough, an internet search on moesia za brings up quite a number of references, the majority of which come from Balkan web pages written in Serbo-Croatian. Apparently za means "for" in Serbo-Croatian (or at least in Serbian, according to a member of a Serbian chat channel).
Coincidence?
Naturally it could be. Coincidences happen more often than we tend to give credit for. The letter z seems to appear far more regularly in names of spirits contacted during ouija sessions than in everyday life.
There is also another thing about the word za which might or might not mean something. The god of the Israelites is referred to rather romantically as the alpha and the omega, the first and last. Alpha and omega are the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet, so it is unlikely that the original Israelites would have referred to their god that way, not being Greek and speaking Aramaic and/or Hebrew. But z and a are the last and the first letters of the Roman alphabet - which we use today. Is ZA an inversion of Jehovah?
Again it could be no more than coincidence, but it is intriguing.
