Firstly, if you or any one else in the group feels strongly against taking part in a séance then don’t do it, these are negative feelings which could attract negative or unfriendly spirits.

Anything that is done concerning Spirit world must be done with respect and love. 

Wherever possible, include someone who has had experience with conducting a séance.  It is not my intention to preach what is right and what is wrong, only you can really know if it is right for you or not.

Below are some simple guidelines for conducting a séance.

Conducting a Séance

       Begin by making sure everyone is relaxed and happy to be involved.

·        Whatever are your spiritual beliefs I always begin with a simple act of protection and bringing in the Light.  If you don’t know of any protection exercises, try the following

Lord of Love and Light

We ask for your protection and guidance

In this séance tonight.

·        Then ask everyone to place their left palm facing up and their right palm facing down then to join hands with the people either side of them.  This will form the circle and ensure that the energy can flow around the circle.

·        If you feel it is appropriate, you can ask all of the group to visualise a white light moving around the circle.  Coming up their left arm from the person next to them, travelling across the shoulders and going down the right arm to the person on the other side of them.  This will help to increase the energy within the circle.

·       Stand quietly for a few moments, then when you feel the time is right start asking questions.  You will feel what is right to ask, below are some to get you started:

Is there anybody here, who would like to make contact today?

We mean you no harm, we just want to communicate with you?

If there is any spirit here who would like to communicate, please give a sign, make a noise or touch one of the group (it is important that all in the group are happy with this one before using it)

·        If you start to get a response, either a noise or a feeling that someone is present, continue to ask questions, remembering to respect the spirit who has chosen to communicate with you.

·        Continue asking questions for as long as everyone is comfortable, although from experience anything from 30 minutes to an hour is long enough for a séance.

·        To conclude the séance, thank the spirit for speaking with you and say goodbye send the Spirit on with love and light.

·        Ensure that everyone in the circle is comfortable, remind them that they are safe and protected by the light.  See the circle of energy slowing down and when you feel the time is right, tell everyone to let go of each others hands, this effectively breaks the circle and closes the séance.

·        Make sure that everyone who took part in the séance drinks some thing, preferably water, as a séance can leave you feeling quite tired and drained.

·        Write down your experience as soon as you can, it is easy to exaggerate what has happened if left too long.
