We recently discovered this handy little device you have so graciously posted on the net. This thing is great! We live in a home built in the mid-1800s and stood on over 230+ acres. We have lived here for 7 years, and have heard and seen just about all! Never once thought about trying to speak to anyone, only to demand their departure if ever we felt uncomfortable. Which was 99% of the time. How would we know if they meant harm or not?
Anyways, we're so used to them being here now that we need to know what type of questions to ask and maybe some warning signs of anyone who might be just taking us on a little ride. There's one person we speak to often, he lives in the house with us, communication with him is almost as if he wasn't passed on and actually living with us. Then there are some who can't even tell me if they're male or female. Most seem to say their age is in the 100s. Experienced "Indian Tribe" from what she tells me, the early to mid 1700s - gave me Chief's name (her husband) and tribe's supposed name but can't find ANY info to back it up. Even tried different spellings and soundex. But nothing. She's a SEER and did things that night convincing us of her existence.
Sorry to run on, but basically need to know some more refined questions to ask, to help. Is there a list of questions to purchase from you or a site to visit specifically for this? I have a hard time finding out what I really need to know when I have to DIG through someone else's entire site and it's really time consuming-- we'd rather spend our time actually communicating. Thanks so much for your help & time. We're having a blast with this!!
Oh yeah, should we be recording audio on this? Would it help? Is there a possibility of hearing anything on playback? Thanks again!

See what you've been missing ... communicating with entities. People who read my article and made their rods are excitely experiencing something they never knew they could do. Like you, they also email us on how they can expand their communication with entities... and all of the other things that the rods are able to do. I only mention the communication part but there are much more that can be done with the rods (like locating objects/people/entities...).
Because the rods are essentially a "one-sided/one-way" deal when it pertains to communication... that is, you ask the question and the rod(s) respond with an answer. The question, for the most part, must be in the form of a "yes or no" format. Remembering to be "specific" with your questions is important. In time, you too will learn how to ask the question to what it is you are interested in. "Be careful of what you ask... you may not like the answer".
Do not assume that the entity or entities know everything or can do anything... "they do not". Like humans, they must relearn certain things (move objects... transport themselves to a specific location...). Neither can you accept all answers as "total truth". "ENTITIES DO PLAY" If you feel that they are not telling you the truth or are just playing with you... tell them to stop, go away or end the session. We (of Otherplane), have found that by giving asking the entity(s) first if they understand the question. If the entity does not, an explanation and example of what we are trying to find out... helps. Note: After providing an explanation/example, ask the entity(s) if they are able to help you (if not, either stop the session or search for another entity).
Entities constantly come and go around you... some will linger and then move on and other will just "pass through". Entities can sense or see other entities around them. You mentioned having entities around you now that you are comfortable with... some people call these "spirit guides". Establish a repoir/relationship with them and through them (if they are able to assist), seek your answers. If you want to verify that it is the right entity you are speaking to... ask about something that only you have knowledge of (everyone has knowledge of something that only they know of), and see if the response is correct.
Trial and error will guide you. If you still have more questions, feel free to email us.

Is it normal to get tingly sensations when communicating with different people? Sometimes I feel it in my hands/arms, sometimes my feet, occasionally in my head. Is that supposed to happen?
The other night I spoke with my Pop (grandpa) for the first time. We recorded it on microcassette. During the middle of the conversation something happened to me, my first thought was I had been touched by "death". All at the same time, my neck was on fire, my ears rang like never before, my head was so dizzy that I saw spots and felt like I was passing out, there was absolutely no air, and I felt something crush my heart. Then it stopped, the rods pointed at the recorder and I was okay again except my chest ached and felt sore, very sore. I didn't want to scare my Pop, so I tried to make a joke of it and asked if he had tried to sit on my lap. He wasn't real sure with his answer so I ended it not too long after that. Later, my mother and played back the tape. In the middle of it you could hear me gasp, then try to catch my breath again. Shortly after that, there it was, My Pop's voice saying "I miss You" several different times. Plain as day.
'Duncan' who is the spirit that I am most comfortable with (who we share this house with), said that what happened was that my Pop had tried to speak to me as if he was still living, so he had to stop him and told him to talk to the tape. I guess that's why the rods pointed at the recorder. It was a very scary thing to have happen. Especially for my mom who sat there helplessly watching and not knowing what was happening to me.
Sometimes after talking to people I feel very tired and drained. And sometimes I get a very heavy feeling in my chest causing me to have an ache in my heart. Is that normal with some, or should I cut it off with entities when I start feeling this? Thanks for all your help!

We (of Otherplane), in the beginning, have experienced the tingly sensations that you mentioned. We are all individuals and tend to receive "individual experiences" rather than a structured and straightforward scenerio. It could have been anxiety and anticipation on yours and your mother's part that fueled the sensations to occur. Individuals have been documented where they can make things happen within their own body... sometimes, outside influences will trigger a reaction.Remember... "Belief builds Confidence". As a precaution, you may ask 'Duncan' to watch/protect you and your mother. Now that you've decided to communicate with entities, you've in effect "crossed the line"... that line which separates the average person from the "believer of the paranormal". If you anticipate on being scared of what you may experience, then you are probably not ready yet. There's nothing to fear... the whole point is to "learn and expand your knowledge"... most people do not get this opportunity.

I'm in need of a little more advice. Okay, so maybe I need a lot of advice... but I'll keep this one semi-short.
I've been have fun talking with entities everywhere on our property (including one man who claims he is THE "Pancho Villa") and have developed a trust in the one 'Duncan' whom we share this house with. Everything was going great up until about a week ago.
I have developed a sense or a feel for him, never doubting he was the one I was speaking to, but lately I'm having a hard time distinguishing him from others that keep stepping in and impersonating him. Some play jokes, some say vulgar things, they all lie. Are they 'Deceptors' (I think is what the Bible calls them) or are they just lonely spirits wanting attention and thinking the only way to get it is by pretending to be the one I speak to most often? Should I be concerned? Can they cause actual harm? Is there any way to shut them out and speak only to whom I choose? I've gotten into long discouraging 'battles' over the truth of identity. I'm beginning to get frustrated and he ('Duncan') says that he feels tricked and sometimes restrained by these entities in their quest to speak to me posing as him.
I get the feeling it's a little more complicated than that, but have I made some sense in what I have said? I love using the rods, and have learned that they are not fortune tellers, I get a kick out of the stories of 'history' they tell me as well as all the reactions stemming from the fact that EVERY SPIRIT SO FAR KNOWS MY CAT, FRANKLIN!! (He's a completely different story!) The communication is great! And so far SAFE. I'd just like to keep it that way. Any advice you could give me would be GREATLY APPRECIATED! Thank you so much for your time & listening!

We are happy for you that you are having a great time communicating with entities, especially with 'Duncan'.
1. The next time you sense that there are more than just 'Duncan' present, use the rods/device to scan for them. To do this...
a. Use just one rod.
b. If using the right hand, hold the rod across your body (to your left with the tip pointing to your left). If using the left hand, to the opposite.
c. Slowly start the rod forward toward the front (be sure to keep the rod level and balanced), and continue your scan/sweep to your right until you have completed a 180 degree arc.
1) Communicate thru the rod/device... "look for entity". The rod/device should 'lock-on' an entity during your scan/sweep (do not stop at the first 'lock-on' - continue the scan/sweep to completion).
2) If one or more entities are present, the rod/device should pick-out each one during your scan/sweep.
3) Communicate thru the rod/device... "lock-on to Duncan only". Repeat the scan/sweep... the rod/device should only 'lock-on' to Duncan and ignore the other entities.
4) When you have found 'Duncan', keep the rod/device 'locked-on' to 'Duncan' and ask 'Duncan' to move to your right or left (beside you). As 'Duncan' moves toward the side you indicated, the rod/device should continue to hold its 'lock-on' and follow (as if drawn by a magnet) 'Duncan' until 'Duncan' has complied with your instruction. The rest of the entities should remain in-front of you (you can verify this by doing another scan/sweep).
5) At this point, you have the option to confirm if it is 'Duncan' by asking a question that only you and 'Duncan' knows of (you do not have to ask the question out-loud... use 'thought').
6) As for the rest of the entities...
a) You may ask them to leave, never to return and bother you again.
b) You may want to find out something about them and the reason(s) for their presence. When you are done with them, thank them and then ask them to leave.
Entities will play with you and that is why it is important to know how to tell them apart from 'Duncan'. Entities were once a part of the living and do retain some of the human traits and emotions. In some instances, they must re-learn things. Entities are not 'fortune tellers', they cannot tell you anything about the future... only of the past and only of the things that they know about.
In 'Duncan's' case... think of 'Duncan' as your "spirit guide", "a kind of guardian angel", one who is your advisor, confidant and comfort in your endeavor to seek knowledge. Remember, 'Duncan' also is not a fortune teller, but will make special effort to acquire the information (of past events) that you seek. 'Duncan' must also re-learn things and with your assistance, it is possible (with your guidance)....
Try the above and see what happens. We would be interested on your results.
