56: Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board

I don’t know what boys did at slumber parties, but if you were a girl in the 80’s and 90’s chances are you spent the entire night trying to contact dead people! I’m not kidding! We would literally try to talk to spirits all night, traumatize ourselves and then get up early and go to girl scouts like nothing happened. We’re talking Full Seances! We’d dare one another to go into a dark bathroom and say Bloody Mary three times and wait until you saw her face in the mirror - which none of us ever saw because we never stayed in the bathroom long enough. Heaven knows she was probably a really nice lady in Spirit who just got ding-dong-ditched by little shits every single weekend. Sorry Mary!   In this episode we're taking a trip down nostalgia lane of 'Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board'. Where did it come from? How did we all know about it without TikTok or Facebook? Did you ever have luck lifting someone? Let's discover the history behind this childhood woo!   LINKS Modern Mystics at the Third Eye Library https://www.thirdeyelibrary.com/ Classes and Bookings: https://www.emilyandherstars.com Newsletter + Calendar Download: https://view.flodesk.com/pages/60f5b4f9a00fcd52c9f65d4b Website: https://www.emilyandherstars.com
