If you decide to go and see a medium for a private reading, it is always best to ask around and see if any friends or relatives can recommend someone they have been to see. Word of mouth is usually how a medium’s reputation is measured.
If someone has had a really good sitting with genuine proof of life after death, they will be pleased to pass on a name and number to you. Equally, if they have been to see a medium who left a lot to be desired, they may perhaps want to warn you against seeing them and wasting money.
Firstly, a good reading from a medium should contain information about a loved one of yours in the spirit world. This information should be enough for you to recognise who it is communicating to you, by stating personal details such as their name, illness with which they passed over or suffered from, and places and memories that are collectively unique to you and them, and your relationship with them. You may not receive all of these, but there should be enough data for you to recognise who the loved one is.
Secondly, after the loved one has proved to you who they are, they should be able to pass on information to you, via the medium, about current events concerning yourself and any concerns you have in your current life. The spirit may give advice about how to handle a particular difficulty you are experiencing, or about another loved one who may be unwell and in need of healing. Loved ones like to carry on helping us from the spirit world just as they did when they were here on Earth.
Sometimes, if you are lucky, the communicator may tell you something that you are not yet aware of, and it will only become clear what they mean when you have asked questions of those within your family or friends. This is proof that there is no mind reading taking place, as it needs the input of an absent third party to fill in the gaps of the message. I like it when this happens.
