WHAT IS TABLE TIPPING OR TABLE TURNING?

If you have ever wanted to physically connect with spirit, the technique of table tipping maybe a good experiment for you to conduct.  In table tipping or turning, a table is used as a physical tool to communicate with beings in spirit – a physical way for them to show us they are present.

It originated in the late 1800s to early 1900s.  When the movement of Spiritualism first reached Europe from America in the winter of 1852–1853, the most popular method of consulting the spirits was for several persons to sit round a table,  their hands resting lightly upon it and wait for the table to move. If the experiment was successful the table would rotate with considerable force, or perform other strange, sometimes gravity-defying movements.

In England table-turning became a fashionable diversion and was practised all over the country in the year 1853. Dr. John Elliotson and his followers attributed the phenomena to mesmerism whilst the public were content to find the explanation of the movements in spirits, electricity, or even the rotation of the earth.

How does it work?

Each person places the fingertips only of both hands on the table, but just a light touch.  It generally works much better if there is a physical medium present (ie; one the spirits can draw energy from). The table begins to move, slightly at first, sometimes shuddering or tapping, but the main point is, it is not the participants pushing or rocking the table - it is spirit doing the work. 

All types of entities can come through in a session of table tipping – spirits, elementals and even guides.

In a Ghost Hunting situation, it is useful in that yes and no questions can be answered with a specific movement, a rap, knock or tap.

Table Tipping is perfectly safe when the experiment is conducted with a trained medium or paranormal investigator.
