Can You Talk to the Dead With a Table?

[PerfectInsanity]

Has anyone ever participated or witnessed this?

I have heard of it before but never really realised how common of a practice it is in spirit communication. I wonder if it is the same as a ouija board ? Like where it could be dangerous? Or if this is a more safer way. I will start with the below article and add some more stuff while I do some researching.

The woman below seems to be quite familiar with it.

When Medium Kelly Dawn Purington offered to demonstrate table tipping for me, I’ll admit, I was skeptical. How can you communicate with the dead with a table? It seemed far-fetched and outlandish…until I witnessed it for myself.

Few things in life have intrigued me more than the mystical art of table tipping. Originating during the height of the spiritual revolution in the late 1800’s, mediums have been utilizing this practice for over a century to contact the dead.

In a typical table tipping session, a medium and several participant sit around a small table, lightly resting their hands on the table. Once Spirit comes through, the medium will ask the table to respond by moving. People often use table tipping to communicate with deceased loved ones, allowing the table to move in specific directions to answer “yes or no” types of questions.

I had watched the process once before at a well-known haunted venue and was skeptical. The medium who was there used a three-legged table that tipped easily. With a little moisture on your fingers, the table could be manipulated in any direction you wished. It wasn’t until I met Kelly Dawn Purington that my impressions of this spiritual practice changed altogether.

I met Kelly at Camp Etna, which is located in central Maine, just west of Bangor. Camp Etna was founded in 1877 and originally spanned over 300 acres, with nearly 350 cottages. People from all over the country flocked to the spiritual camp in hopes of connecting with deceased loved ones while getting readings from the psychic mediums who lived there. I was invited to take part in an event focusing around paranormal investigations, which seems to be my forte. While I was there, I learned that Kelly does table tipping and asked her for a demonstration.

Kelly has been table tipping for many years, learning the practice at Camp Etna, where she’s been living since 2006. “When I saw it, I knew it was something I wanted to do,” she said. For her, the experience allowed her to actually feel Spirit. When she table tips, she can feel the energy better, as can the participants who join her in the session.

Kelly has been a medium all her life, developing her abilities more over the years, especially after working with table tipping. She believes that table tipping works through your chakras, especially the solar plexus chakra, noting that many mediums have stomach issues.

One of her most interesting experience with table tipping came when she was with a group of friends. One of her friends wandered off during the session and the table began moving towards the stairs where he went. She felt that the table wanted him to return to the session. She’s even had the table move outside, as though pointing in the direction of the activity.

If someone with mediumistic abilities is interested in getting into table tipping, here are some tips:

1. Find a table that you like. Kelly uses a pedestal table. Others use smaller vanity tables.
2. Sit with the table and feel it’s energy.
3. Work with someone who is adept at table tipping. Kelly worked with someone for nearly six months before she was able to do it herself. It takes a lot of patience to master the ability.

I was so stunned by her abilities, I broke away from the session to video her in action. As a skeptic, I can tell you that I watched her closely and saw absolutely no signs of the table being physically manipulated. At times, she would pull her fingers away and the table would continue to dance. Be the judge yourself and see what you think after watching this video.

I dont know if it is take or not, the table does seem to slow down a llittle but not heaps, but then when she isn't touching it it pretty much just drops..

After looking I have dug up some more videos that seem a bit more genuine.

More Information on Table Tipping.

WE can share consciousness utilizing the crystaline condutivity of an object. The energy flows over the outside of the table which contains signals. When two workers who are experienced carry something together, they share consciousness and work as one to carry the object. If someone who does not know how to use this link is on the other side of the plywood, they need to be trained to be able to utilize this communication subconsciously. It is part of our jobs as parents to teach our kids this subconscious property.

Some people can read this information well, I can carry things with others well and transmit and receive information which makes everything go smoothly. Our voices are not the only way of communication, we just do not realize we have this ability. I am not real good at reading information stored in an object but can pick up some information off of objects.

Some people can read people's knowledge through this link very well. They can read the people and the people have knowledge of the dead people. Some of the essence of the dying person may also jump into someone, there are soul collectors out there. The energy to fuel this link comes from people themselves. The knowledge comes from the people sitting at the table, some shared the same DNA as the dead person, I am half my father and half my mother. The memories stored in DNA is substantual. The knowledge potential our cells can store is way more than just our brain can store. Even bacteria share consciousness with us and with other people. Our gut instinct could be a real telepathic event, if we have a conduit between us. Notice how deceivers do not like to shake hands anymore, a deal was made with a handshake because information was transferred between people, if you renigged on the deal, your own body could make you sick.

Now not much of my conclusions above has direct evidence to back it. It is a conclusion made from looking at scientific evidence and evaluating what all of this stuff may mean. It includes life experiences also.

So it could be more that the people are actually communicating with their energy amongst themselves rather than talking with spirits?

Yeah come to think of it i am pretty good when carrying something with someone, I am usually the one that has it together and guides us and we get something moved, although with my neck back and stomach I wont be carrying things for awhile but, I am pretty good at tuning in with people like that, I can tell straight away when someone is not feeling right as well even if they are acting ok ill stop the conversation and ask if they are ok, and then they will tell me what is bothering them and be like how did you know.

So do you mean if I was to be sitting with someone when they died their energy could some how become apart of me ?

Yes I notice people shake hands less and less now days, I always try to shake hands with people because that was how I was brought up, and having a good strong hand shake meant a lot, it tends to show to me how genuine someone is by how they shake my hand, if they are loose and not really giving their all im wary because to me it shows me that they arent really interested or concerned at whatever is happening., or meeting me or knowing me, because I myself wont give someone my strong handshake if I don't really care for them so that could be why.

Your conclusions make sense to me like I just thought out in this reply, its all pretty much made sense too me and my life and life experiences also.

I don't think we lost that hive communication when we evolved. They want us to think we have because then we would not trust our instincts, our communication with others that we are tied to. One of them may know that you are getting scammed, they could have experienced it before. Being that deceivers run the show nowadays, it would not be beneficial if we were able to tie to others and know their deceptions.

We just do not know we have it because our conscious and subconscious are not meshed, we get feelings or sometimes when we want to see someone a coincidence happens, we wind up in the same place. We may not even know that they were going there. Or we can have guardian angels who make things happen.

That always happens to me, when I think of someone I haven't seen in awhile 9 times out of 10 I see them within a week out of the blue.
