Mediumship is the communication between Spirits of the deceased and those who are still living. As a Psychic Medium, I will communicate with those who have passed to the spirit world through seeing, feeling, hearing, and knowing and act as a bridge between the spirit world and this world. My goal is to deliver messages and evidence to my clients that their loved ones are very much alive and present in their lives. The journey of the spiritual medium may take many routes. You might be called to be a healer, or a tutor orconsultant at the College, or a person who gives comfort in bereavement. It may be that you feel called to use your gifts in combination with tarot or lenormand cards or palm reading. All of these skills are opportunities to use and develop your psychic mediumship gifts to help others. You will be guided every step of the way, so listen closely to what your guides and helpers direct you to do, and dive in! Remain detached Anthony Kesner is an excellent teacher who strongly supports is students and does all he can to help them develop." Clairsentience means “clear feeling” refers to the ability of a person to receive information by feeling and sensing energy. All humans have this sense and may develop it.

So, whether you want to blaze a trail like Tyler Henry andTheresa Caputo, or would simply like to learn an incredible skill that will serve you for the rest of your life, you just need to put in the practice – and plenty of patience. To get you started, we have listed the most important steps of how to become a psychic medium. But first, an important question… What is the difference between a psychic and a medium? What is a psychic? During a mediumship reading, the Medium will blend their energy with those of your passed loved ones, pets, or Spirit Guides to be a channel of communication between two worlds. Through this blending, the Medium may see, hear, feel, and know things about your loved ones and relay evidence and messages to you. They make you feel uncomfortable or uneasy. A psychic or mediumship reading should be a comforting and healing experience that helps you connect to your soul and feel empowered. If you get a bad vibe, you might not have found the right reader for you. Often referred to as a Psychic Medium, Intuitive Medium or Spirit Medium, Evidential Mediums will offer evidence to clients of their passed loved ones to provide evidence that they continue to live on and be part of their lives here on the Earth plane.In a private mediumship reading, the Medium will usually begin by explaining to you how they work and letting you know what you may expect to happen during your session. An evidential Medium will then begin communicating with your loved ones who are in spirit and presenting you evidence of their personalities and lives here on Earth. Be sure to ask your Medium questions that'll dig deep and really uncover the answers you're looking for. Having said that, it is also important to remember that you have needs. It is all very well to wish to dedicate yourself wholeheartedly to being in service of Spirit. However, you must take care of your physical body. Nourish yourself, rest well, and ensure that your physical needs are taken care of. When in doubt, always listen to your helpers and guides. Enjoy the path As soon as you commit to becoming a psychic medium, your spirit guides and helpers will start coming through to support, guide and assist you. In fact, they are already here with you, waiting in the wings for you to step up.It's important at this stage that you start to meet your spirit guides. Spend time becoming familiar with how they work with you. Your spirit guides and helpers are your greatest friends on the path of psychic mediumship. They are your support network, your teachers, and your road map. If you ever experience doubt on the spiritual path, they are your first port of call. You can never go wrong if you listen to the advice of your spirit guides and helpers. They use fear as a motivator, or tell you they need more money or more sessions to help you remove a curse, bad energy or anything similar. They try to sell you crystals or other items outside of your budget to help “heal you". It is essential for your wellbeing as a spiritual medium that you learn how to manage your increased sensitivity. The answer? Protect yourself. Rest assured, protecting yourself won't inhibit the expansion of your aura. However, it will consciously insulate you from the atmosphere around you. It is one of the most important tools you can learn at this stage of your psychic mediumship development. Psychic mediums use various techniques for protection. For example:

Do this each day for at least ten minutes. This daily practice will help the Spirit World attune to you, as well as help you to develop the discipline of mind needed to practice mediumship. Bookmark this guided meditation on YouTube to complete the practice on your own: meditation to connect to your spirit. Find a community or Mediumship Development Circle where you feel safe and comfortable to share your experiences and ask questions. Let your intuition guide you in finding the right space for you. From there, the best way to learn mediumship is to practice! Allow your journey to unfold authentically and trust that you will be guided to learn and develop in the perfect timing for you. Try a variety of visualisations to find the one that works most effectively for you. It is essential to keep yourself protected because this helps you maintain your own vibration and it insulates you from the energy, moods and influences of others. Trust yourself When we step onto the path of becoming a psychic medium, we offer ourselves in service. This means that the emphasis shifts from 'me' to 'we'. It no longer becomes about what I want as an individual. Rather, it becomes: 'Here I am! Where do you want me?' As Ivy Northagesays, you cannot possibly know the true value of your psychic power. You can only offer it in service of spirit. That means you must follow the guidance from your spirit helpers. You may never have imagined that you would be called to do platform work… but here you are, offering a live demonstration! Whatever your calling, honour it and follow your guidance. Remember, you are only human!We are all born with intuition. It is our sixth sense; our gut feeling; our inner knowing. Whatever you want to call it, it's that internal radar that alerts us when something feels right or wrong, safe or dangerous, an opportunity or a dead end. And every psychic medium knows that this intuition is our superpower. How do I know if I am psychic? I truly believe that everyone does have varying degrees of Mediumistic abilities and that they can be developed over time. We all have an ability to connect with our own spirit and so it seems natural that we would be able to connect with and feel the spirit of someone else. We are all capable of receiving signs from our passed loved ones. Many of my clients have had profound experiences involving the Spirit World and often those experiences will come through as evidence in a reading which can be validating to the recipient. Clairaudient means “clear hearing” and refers to the ability to perceive energy through hearing sounds, voices, or music. Clairaudience may be subtle—sometimes it feels like you are hearing your own thoughts, or maybe your own voice. Objective clairaudience hearing voices, music, thoughts outside of the mind is also possible. clairsentient ('clear feeling') is about feeling information through the body, for example, you might feel anxious if the person you are reading foris stressed, or you may experience a pain in our kidney if they have an issue there. Clairvoyant or “clear seeing,” in mediumship or intuitive work, refers to seeing or perceiving information through images or visions. Clairvoyant images may appear in the same space as your imagination but will be clearer and easily recalled. There is also a rarer type of clairvoyance called objective clairvoyance where mediums may see objectively—outside their mind—with their physical eyes.”

Mediumship is almost nothing like how Hollywood portrays it. In fact, many people have mediumship abilities that they aren't aware of because they're waiting for them to manifest like they have seen in popular culture and movies. Mediumship is very subtle and in the development of mediumship we learn to live in that subtlety. According to legendary psychic medium Ivy Northage, who taught psychic mediumship at The College of Psychic Studies in the 1970s, the natural psychic is vulnerable to receiving spontaneous or random messages, forewarnings, advice or bytes of information that come from 'out of the blue'. Ivy lists four signs that suggest you have psychic potential: Physical mediumship is a rare type of mediumship and is often defined by changes that occur in our physical environment brought by communication with the spirit world. These changes may be a hot or cold feeling in the room, apparitions appearing, objects being moved, or in some cases may take the form of automatic writing in which the medium’s writing is controlled by a spirit communicator. There are also forms of automatic writing which are not physical mediumship, but more an influence of the spirit communicator or influence of the medium's soul.All over the world, occultists, seekers, and mystics admire and collect crystals. They are one of the easiest ways to bring something beautiful and living into your space. They are alive and, like plants, have an aura—an energy that can be felt by highly sensitive and intuitive people. Crystals not only enhance the beauty of a space, but they are also healing.

This 12-week livestream advanced course is for those wishing to work as a professional medium and develop a true understanding of the mechanics of mediumship.

You can never go backwards

In a private session, personal and sensitive information may be discussed if it is a benefit to your healing. You should understand most of the evidence that is being presented to you, however there are sometimes things that do not make sense until after a reading. I love getting messages from clients letting me know that they’ve uncovered an item that we discussed that was in their loved one’s possessions or spoke to other family members and learned that they did in fact have an aunt named Gwendolyn. The spirit world knows exactly which type of evidence to present to the medium to identify themselves, although it may not always be exactly what you are expecting. It helps to keep an open mind. Experiencing a mediumship reading is often a profound and healing experience, and you will want to give yourself time to process your session if possible. Taking an afternoon off from work afterwards or setting some time aside to reflect can be beneficial to the healing process. Self-development is a key component of your spiritual journey. Your perceptions are shaped by your lived experience and biases. Representing the spirit world accurately means working to be the clearest channel possible. This could mean learning and reading, finding a therapist to work with or healing from trauma that you’ve experienced. A Trance Medium is less common and refers to a Medium who is so blended with a Spirit Person, typically their Spirit Guide, that their guide may provide healing or speak through them. This type of mediumship is perhaps the most misunderstood and is often portrayed in Hollywood more as possession where the person acting as a Medium has no control or recollection of their actions. This often comes across as frightening or ridiculous. Genuine trance mediumship is a beautiful blending of the Medium and their guide to share healing and wisdom with their recipients. This type of mediumship takes years of practice to achieve authenticity and many Mediums practice solely for the benefit of having a closer relationship with the Spirit World. Mediumship became popular in the 19th-century after the rise of the religious movement of Spiritualism in the UK. Spiritualists believe the each of us has a Spirit that lives on in the afterlife to progress and evolve and that the Spirits of the deceased wish to communicate with the living.
