I have recently been looking for stuff regarding the topic of talking to friendly spirits, I am not sure though, whether a lot of the spells are reliable and a lot of them are having you summon a spirit to talk to it, although I plan on talking spiritually to a spirit that is already there. Its not one in my house, but I have a few ideas of where some may be, I am also unsure as to find out if a spirit is going to be friendly or not, also, I don?t know if there are any practices I should do before, such as learning the basics of spiritual communication first, but any information helps. I have also been wondering about channeling, I have recently taken an interest in the deity Anubis, so I am wondering how to get on the basis of communication with him. We have sort of communicated through signs given, such as a candle flicker, whenever I have asked if he is present in the area, but other than that, I would like to learn how to channel with him.
