What is Psychic Mediumship?

What is Mediumship and How Does it Work?

At its core, mediumship refers to the ability to connect and communicate with spirits from the spiritual realm. Psychic mediums serve as conduits, facilitating a connection between the living and those who crossed the world of Spirit. Mediums, through their heightened intuitive and psychic abilities, receive and deliver messages, signs, and communications for the living, from loved ones who have passed and now reside in the spirit world. The primary objective of demonstrating mediumship is to recognize a communicator from the spirit world with certainty and to validate the information they provide, which would identify them without any doubt. This paves the way for meaningful communication and dialogue containing detailed information that is relevant to the recipient.  

Can Psychic Mediums Really Communicate with the Spirit World?

One of the most common questions asked about psychic mediumship is whether it is truly possible to communicate with those who have passed away. While personal beliefs vary, psychic mediums are able to establish a link with loved ones who reside in the spirit realm and they able convey messages or insights from departed loved ones to the living, through a variety of methods such as trance, clairvoyance or clairsentience. 

How do Psychic Mediums Receive Information from Spirits?

Psychic mediums receive information through various means, including clairvoyance (visions or images), clairaudience (auditory messages), clairsentience (sensing or feeling), claircognisance (an inner knowing), clairolfactrance (through smells or scents) or clairgustance (through taste). Most mediums will make use all of the above methods or a combination of these abilities, but not at the same time. Some psychic mediums may also receive messages through symbols, dreams, or automatic writing.

It is important to also note the distinction between a psychic and a medium. A psychic is a person who links to the energy of the recipient and he\she receives information through the recipient’s auric field. There is no linking with the spirit world in this case.  A genuine medium should be able to differentiate between psychic reading and mediumistic reading. This means that upon delivering the information a medium should state “Your loved one is telling me or showing me” etc. Whereas when the information is from the recipient’s auric field, the medium should say “This is me providing you the information”. This is imperative to ensure pure and clear communication and delivery.

Can Psychic Mediums Predict the Future or Provide Specific Details About Someone’s Life?

Psychic mediums primarily focus on connecting with loved ones who are in the spirit world and relaying messages from them. While they may receive glimpses of future events or insights into someone’s life, it’s important to note that psychic mediumship primarily serves as a means of communication rather than fortune-telling or providing detailed personal information. 

How Accurate Are The Messages Delivered by Psychic Mediums?

The accuracy of messages delivered by psychic mediums can vary. It’s essential to approach psychic mediumship with an open mind, understanding that messages may be symbolic, metaphorical, or subject to interpretation. Factors such as the clarity of the connection, the medium’s skill and experience, and the receptiveness of the recipient can all influence the accuracy and effectiveness of the messages.

Evidential mediumship is about bringing forth evidence that the living can recognize without a shadow of doubt that “yes” this is their loved one connecting and communicating. The recipients validation of the delivered evidence or information is imperative to the validity of their loved ones communication with them. The evidence being that their loved one survived death and that their essence and soul continues to live in other realities.

What Does Evidential Mediumship Consist of?

Evidential mediumship aims to provide specific proof of the continuity of life beyond the physical realm. During a session, a skilled medium establishes a connection with the spirit world and delivers specific details that the recipient can identify as evidence of communication with their departed loved one. This evidence could  include pieces of information such as the name of the deceased loved one who is communicating, their relationship to the recipient, and the age at which they passed away. Additionally, mediums may describe the character traits of the spirit, shedding light on whether they were happy, sad, funny, easy-going, uptight, or prone to anger outbursts.

Furthermore, the cause of death is frequently communicated, along with details about who was present at the time of passing and the last few words exchanged. The medium may also provide information about the location where the spirit lived, mentioning the country, street, or specific place associated with their earthly life. These shared memories between the living and departed are vital in establishing a strong link between the two worlds. Moreover, evidential mediumship allows the spirit to convey recent visits to the recipient, offering insights into their ongoing presence and involvement in the living world. When the recipient recognizes and acknowledges these pieces of evidence, it brings comfort and closure, affirming that the communication is genuinely from their loved one.

What Does Not Consist of Evidence in Evidential Mediumship?

One aspect that does not constitute evidence in evidential mediumship is when mediums start describing their guides or spirit helpers during public demonstrations. While guides play a significant role in assisting mediums in establishing connections with the spirit world, mentioning them in a reading does not offer verifiable evidence to the recipient. Since the audience or individual receiving the reading may not be familiar with the medium’s guides, they are unable to validate the information provided. Evidential mediumship relies on specific details and evidence that the recipient can recognize and confirm as being related to their departed loved ones, providing a sense of reassurance and validation in the communication from the spirit realm.

Can Psychic Mediums Connect with Specific Loved Ones Who Have Passed Away?

Psychic mediums often strive to establish connections with specific loved ones who have crossed over. While success in connecting with a specific spirit cannot be guaranteed, psychic mediums have been known to relay messages, share memories, or provide validation of the presence of departed loved ones. It is unethical for a medium to say that they guarantee to bring a specific loved ones as it is a choice for the loved one to take part in the visit and other layers of complex communication that might not make it possible for the communication to take place at that time. Therefore, a medium should say that they will do their best to be an instrument or messenger for spirit.
