For many of us who start down the path of learning and investigating the world of spirit and the afterlife, it is important always to keep a healthy line of questioning when having a reading with a medium. A medium is a person who blends with the soul of those who have passed before us and is able to communicate the deceased information. Many of us come to a medium due to a significant loss in our life, and when we open up to a medium and allow the sitting to occur, we of course will be skeptical at first. This is normal and often people who are new to these readings are asking questions such as, “Is my family member with me?”  or “Is my family member okay?” These are normal questions that we ask a medium. We want to know our family is okay and that they are with us always.   I have been a practicing medium for many years and feel that it is very responsible of the individual who wants a reading to be skeptical until enough evidence is received that is unquestionable and undeniable for them. This is a positive attribute and something we often see in this line of work. Meeting a client and having them be somewhat skeptical is actually a good thing, because it means if a piece of information does undeniably resonate with them, it will be that much more profound and healing for them. In a mediumship reading, a medium should be able to relay information to the client about personal attributes, likes and dislikes, providing evidence and information that only the person in spirit and the client would know. The medium is responsible for relaying information from spirit that can come in many forms such as feeling, sensing, hearing sounds, seeing, and even smelling. It is up to the medium to gather the information and relay the information as accurately as possible. When a medium is inaccurate, and this does happen, it’s often because the medium is interpreting the information incorrectly.    For some clients, there is a belief that a medium is like a telephone line with clear and decisive information from the spirit world. However, as a medium, I know that we do not have a telephone line but rather, a sensory ability that allows us to feel and sense the spirit world. This is where interpretation of the sensory information is very important. Ideally, a working medium who has worked with spirit for many years will have a better understanding of how the spirit world communicates and is able to rely information with higher level of accuracy then a medium that is just starting off in their journey. When meeting with a medium, regardless of how much time the medium has been working with their mediumship development, a client should always have a healthy normal amount of skepticism, as this allows oneself to question and be present for the information received. It’s very important to know that a client should always respond “Yes,” “No” and “I do not know” as per my blog here, as this helps the medium and provides clarity to the reading.   For some people, seeing one medium may not be enough to fully appreciate the spirit world, and in this case, if a client continues to be skeptical, I will suggest that they see other mediums to gain more evidence from the spirit world. It is always good to be skeptical about a lot of what we do in life, and mediumship should not be any different.
