What is Mediumship?

A medium is a person whose senses are so acute that they register the presence of beings belonging to the non-physical world, and interpret the wishes and information which such beings desire to impart to people still in the body in this physical world.

There are various sensations that may result from contact with the spirit world, feelings such as cold or drafts, transportation of objects, seeing of colors or floating lights or even the apparition of the deceased person. Sight is known as clairvoyance or sometimes referred to as second sight. Clairaudience means clear hearing, which can come as an audible perception of music, voice or calling of a name Mediums may go Into trance-state and speak other languages. It is also possible for the medium to write, paint pictures, diagnose illness or send healing energies (similar to Reiki).

It is important for the developing medium to remember that the spirit messages are interpreted by the mediums consciousness. Therefore the spirit entity will use the mental facilities that the medium possesses. As one continues to develop, the medium will realize the different qualities of the spirit messages and will learn to develop a more acute state of awareness to decipher the difference between the message from the spirit and their own mind.

Recognition of Mediumship

Clairvoyance

Some mediums see spirits as physical forms, but it is necessary to know that it is not the physical eye that is the center of psychic vision. it is within the forehead referred to as the third eye and usually (but not necessarily) seen when the physical eyes are closed.

A clairvoyant vision is generally discerned when ordinary consciousness is at rest. Sometimes it will be seen as a complete figure or the face of the spirit or it may be a nebulous form that seems to be hidden in a cloudy substance. Many times it is beautiful scenery and intensely colored symbols that seem to be swirling in the head of the medium. This experience of inward consciousness may seem to be merely imaginary, but when the sitter aclmowledges it, the medium knows that he or she has experienced spirit communication. As the medium continues to worrk, the sublets between imagination and clairvoyant communication are recognized.

Symbols

Each medium will develop a personal vocabulary of symbols. Keeping a journal of definitions is advisable. The medium will experience different feelings than other mediums with certain symbols or colors. Examine your own feelings as a symbol or color reveals itself.

Claraudience

Mediums do not always recognize when they are awakenlng the facility of hearing. They are expecting to hear an audible loud voice. Sometimes this will happen: Occasionally It will be musical and other times it will be impressions. A name or a word will keep coming to mind or music that is symbolic of a particular occasion such as The Wedding March. As the medium becomes increasingly sensitive there will be a distInct feeling coming into consciousness. Mediums will be able to develop discernment between memories and spirit messages.

Clairaroma

A wave of a scent of roses fills the air or the smell of chocolate fills the room. The medium is being given a message by the communicator that is helping to identify the spirit by creating a scent within the medium's faculties. Karen's ability to pick up these signals is one reason why she asks all of her clients to not wear heavy perfume so that she may pick up these messages.

Clairgustance

During the sitting the medium will experience the taste of Grandma's meatloaf or grandpa's scotch. The medium will be able to to taste some of the loved ones favorite foods.
