Is a medium always switched on? Or, does a medium walk round all the time with spirits talking to them or showing themselves. Do mediums see spirits all the time and is it just like looking at me and you?
Well, if a medium walked around all the time with spirit voices in their head, picking up all the aches and pains a spirit can pass on to a medium, they would soon be gaga!
A medium really has to learn very early on in their psychic development, that they have to tune in and open up, and close down when they have finished their session. It would be an impossible existence otherwise. It would be like having crossed wires on a telephone exchange. Mind boggling.
When a medium is tuned in they see spirits in their head usually. In a subjective manner. They hear in a subjective manner too. They cannot get mixed up between live humans and spirit people.
It is not quite like Ghost Whisperer where she is constantly interrupted by life like spirits wanting her help. Although spirits do sometimes need help from a medium. It is not quite so dramatic.
Mediums deal with the ethereal world and get their messages in an ethereal way. That’s what the words beginning with clair… mean really. Clairvoyance, clairaudience and clairsentience. Seeing, hearing and sensing or feeling and knowing.
We mediums can only help the living if make sure we set time aside for readings and shut down for the rest of the day. That way we keep spirit happy, our sitters happy and ourselves sane.
