We all have physical senses which we use all the time: sight, hearing, smell, taste, feeling. We also have other senses with which you may not be familiar just yet, psychic senses. It is these psychic senses which you need to develop in order to become a psychic reader or a medium.
A clairvoyant medium ‘sees’ most of the communication he or she passes on to a sitter. A medium is not a fortune teller, mediumistic clairvoyance is not used to tell the future, but to pass on communication from the spirit world to prove there is life after the physical death.
A clairaudient medium hears most of the communication he or she passes on to a sitter, although there might be other gifts at work here too. It is not unusual for a well developed medium to have more than one psychic sense working during readings.
A clairsentient medium senses and feels most of the communication from the spirits, which he or she passes on to the recipient of a spiritual message, the sitter. I consider myself to be very lucky as I am clairvoyant, but also have different levels of sensing and hearing as well as seeing. This comes in very handy when receiving and passing on communications which may seem a bit like a jig-saw puzzle.
These are the senses which have to be developed if you wish to use them as a psychic, or as a medium. In order to use the senses, you must first learn to become aware of them and how to open and close them, as with the previous post on chakras.
You have to be prepared to be a dedicated sitter in order to develop your psychic abilities. It is not something that can be done in a hurry and certainly not overnight. You need lots of patience, as I have said before.
You also need a good heart and the desire to help people. Without compassion, it is unlikely that you will attract the kind of spirits who are able to work with you and help you develop your gifts.
To understand someone else’s pain, you have to know what pain is, and therefore be able to empathise with your sitter.
Personal responsibility is an important part of being a medium. We are all responsible for our own personal good and bad deeds during our earthly life. Others cannot be blamed for our own failings.
