Originally diviners used shiny objects only as a means to induce themselves into a
trance-like state to enable them to see visions and foretell the
future.
![Page 34: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Scrying has now evolved where the diviner supposedly sees the
future in the object itself.
![Page 35: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

The way the cards are shuffled, dealt, and "read" by diviners
are as varied as the practitioners themselves.
![Page 43: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Interpretations vary greatly and rarely do two practitioners
interpret the cards in the same way.

It is a device used in fortune telling that consists of a small
board on legs that moves about on a larger board with
numbers, letters, and words.
![Page 47: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD
The term “ouija” is a nonsense word from the French word
"oui" meaning "yes," and the German word "ja" meaning
"yes."
![Page 48: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD
The Ouija Board is actually an American trademark owned by Parker Brothers, a division of
Hasbro toys.
![Page 49: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
![Page 50: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
The Ouija Board was patented in 1892 by Isaac Fuld, a cabinet maker who owned a small toy
factory in Baltimore.
![Page 51: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
![Page 52: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
![Page 53: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
![Page 54: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
![Page 55: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
![Page 56: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD
How does it work?
![Page 57: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD
1. The “planchette” moves on the board as the result of the
operators either consciously or unconsciously selecting what is
read.
![Page 58: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD
2. Sub-consciously the two individuals push the
“planchette” around on the board as the result of minute muscular finger movement
known in science as "ideomotor movement.”
![Page 59: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD
3. The movement of the planchette is not caused by
paranormal forces but rather by the unnoticeable finger
movements of those controlling the pointer.
![Page 60: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD
4. Even Isaac Fuld who patented the Ouija Board
stated clearly that either one or both of the operators knowingly push the planchette about on
the board, or . . .
![Page 61: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD
. . . unknowingly push the planchette about on the board due to “involuntary muscular
actions.”
![Page 62: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD
6. Proof that this is true: (a) the board won’t answer if the operators don’t know the
answers, (b) if the operators are blindfolded and can’ t see the board, the result is usually
garble.
![Page 63: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD: The Question!
Since there are no supernatural agencies at work moving the
planchette around on the board, does this mean it is ok
for Christians to “play” with the Ouija board toy?
![Page 64: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
OUIJA BOARD: The Answer!
NO! While no supernatural or Satanic power causes the planchette to move, what Satan can do is to use the
psychological and emotional influences that result from the
Ouija Board's use.
![Page 65: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Satan can use the Ouija board or any other New Age practice to distract a believer’s trust in
God.
![Page 66: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Satan will use virtually anything to inspire disbelief,
rebellion, and hinder the work of God.
![Page 67: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Satan will use any means at his disposal to wage war against
you on the spiritual level to try and disable the work of
Christianity.
![Page 68: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)

life.
![Page 71: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)

One of the keys of astrology is the zodiac. In western astrology, the
zodiac refers to twelve zones in the sky and each zone has a star
constellation that originally fell within its zone.
![Page 73: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Each zone has a name (such as Gemini, Taurus, Leo" etc), and each
zone has a symbol.
![Page 74: THREE CATEGORIES OF THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT SPIRITUALISM.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc85503460f94abe225/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
