Séance (Meeting)
A séance is a gathering where people attempt to communicate with spirits or the deceased. This practice often involves a medium, who is believed to have the ability to connect with the spiritual realm. Participants may sit in a circle, hold hands, and focus on their intentions to invite spiritual presence.
During a séance, various methods may be used, such as speaking aloud, using a Ouija board, or relying on physical phenomena like table tipping. Séances have been popularized in various cultures and are often associated with spiritualism, a movement that emerged in the 19th century, involving figures like Allan Kardec and Madame Blavatsky.
