#1) Psychic mediums communicate with the spirit world.
Mediums are basically a human telephone to the spirit world—they communicate with
spirits. Unfortunately, they are a telephone without a dial. They can’t just call up anyone
from the spirit world with whom you want to talk. Instead, you get whoever is on the other
end when the medium “links” with the spirit world.
#2) Spirits communicate with psychic mediums using four different methods.
Mediums can communicate with spirits in four different ways, or any combination of these
four ways.
One - some mediums see spirits. Not every spirit chooses to show himself or herself to a
medium who has this ability, but many of them do. If the medium can see spirits, part of the
communication will be based on sight. A medium may see something in their mind’s eye (as
an inner vision), or they may see spirits the way they see other people (as a physical
manifestation, except the spirits are more ethereal, ghostly).
Two - some mediums can hear spirits. In this method, the spirits actually talk to the medium
verbally. The medium may hear the communication in their mind (like hearing thoughts), or
they may hear the spirit the way they would hear you or I talking to them. Unfortunately,
some spirits are not the greatest communicators and what the medium actually hears may
sound more like a faint radio station than a clear telephone signal. This is one reason why
some readings are so detailed and accurate while others are sketchy. Just try talking to
someone using a cheap set of walkie-talkies and you’ll experience what it’s like chatting
with a weak communicator from the spirit world.
Three - some mediums receive messages telepathically, as an inner knowing or inner
sensing. Messages are sent from the spirit’s mind to the medium’s mind, and vice versa.
Here, the spirit might flash a picture or a word in the medium’s mind. Spirits have the ability
to use the medium’s brain as a file cabinet, and they will search through that medium’s
knowledge and experiences for ways to best communicate what they want to convey. For
example, if a spirit wants to give the medium the name Sandy, they might flash (in the
medium’s mind) the face of a person whom the medium knows named Sandy. If they want
to get the medium to say the word “coffee,” they might show the medium someone’s cat
that had the name Coffee. This can be confusing and requires that the medium interpret
what they are seeing in their mind. For instance, the medium might say cat rather than
coffee; and to the person being read, the medium might appear wrong when the medium is
actually just “misinterpreting” the message.
Four - some mediums get feelings or sensations in their body and mind, both physical and
emotional. A spirit can make the medium feel sad if they are trying to convey the message
of depression. Or they can make the medium’s lungs feel tight if they are trying to convey
the message that someone had pneumonia or lung cancer. It is not uncommon that a
medium will feel a painful sensation in the head if the spirit is trying to relay the message
that there was a head trauma that caused death. This could be due to an auto accident or
suicide (or any number of causes), so the spirit will also send another message—perhaps
a telepathic picture of a smashed car—to complete the story for the medium.
#3) Everyone present has an effect on the clarity of the messages coming
through.
The person being read (the sitter), and anyone in the room (people attending the reading
with the sitter or audience members in a demonstration), can affect the clarity of the
messages.
In a reading, for instance, if you are skeptical, the messages might not be quite as clear as
they could be if you were more open-minded. If you are fearful or angry, this low mental
energy could inhibit the clarity of the messages. If you are abusing drugs or alcohol, your
mental and emotional clarity could also affect the clarity of the messages.
If you are accepting and light-hearted, this helps the medium. If you are apathetic or
angry, this can negatively affect the medium, as it might affect any speaker in front of such
a group. Spirit communication is about energy. If the energy is high, it can assist the
medium to raise his or her energy. We can all help mediums to have an extremely clear
path while on stage, or in a private reading, by sending them our love and acceptance. Say
a little prayer to help the medium receive perfect clarity in their communication. Don’t sit
there with your arms folded and an angry look on your face. Lighten up. Relax. Have fun.
One message that often comes through for people from their spirit-guides is that they need
to lighten up—don’t be so serious! Many spirits have communicated to mediums that when
they crossed-over to the spirit world and looked back at their life, they were regretful that
they were so darn serious and didn’t have more fun while they were here.
NOTE
If what the medium says doesn’t make sense to you, just say you don’t know or don’t
understand what they are talking about. Don’t try to make the message fit if it doesn’t. The
medium will figure out what the message means without you interpreting it yourself.
At the same time, if the medium says that Frances is here, and your mother’s name is
Francine, don’t say you have no idea what they are talking about. Or if the medium says
that your father is wearing a police uniform but your father wore a security uniform,
remember that you don’t have to be a medium to mix that one up—anyone could make that
mistake. Keep in mind that the clarity of communication may be more like an AM radio
station than a telephone. Small inaccuracies are expected. Don’t hold the medium to exact
measurements.
