Spirit / Automatic Writing

Automatic or spirit writing is the practice of writing while channeling messages from the spirit realm. Those on the Other Side are sometimes strong enough to "push" textual messages across the veil and those who are able to relax enough to take up the pen in a spirit writing session will have interesting messages come through.

Automatic writing sessions will often leave the psychic exhausted. It takes great effort to remain still while spirit energies literally take over strongly enough to send messages through the brain of the channel.

It may have its down side, but spirit writing can yield some of the finest works and bodies of information. It allows for great detail if desired and so long as the psychic can keep the same momentum as the spirits, the message system will be successful.

To try automatic writing, sit in a quiet place, with a large pad of paper in front of you and a pencil or pen in your hand. Relax completely and breathe, letting stress drift away. Try not to focus on anything in particular. Let your thoughts drift until they are indeed random. Begin writing if the urge strikes you. Many beginners feel the spirit pull as an urge to put pen to paper. You can begin by doing circles (a spiral) along your page. At times this can develop into words and messages.

This practice can bring out messages and information that otherwise may not get channeled, but caution is always wise when dealing with the other side and energy that isn't familiar to you.
