If you are the type of person who has "hunches" about
things before they happen or even as they happen, then you have the ability
to take these gifts and develop them further. Throughout the years,
one of the things I find common among GOOD readers is their inept ability
to zero in on what a person and loved one is feeling, usually due to the
fact that their own lives
have been filled with traumatic events of one kind or
another. A good reader can not only feel/sense, but they can sympathize
and relate to all. For this reason, if you lack the ability to share
your gut feelings or if you are too busy to care, then mediumship would
not be the right path for you. You can't do a half reading.
It is all or nothing.
Mediums should have a sense of humor, common sense, time to study, patience, and faith in themselves, something greater than themselves (God) and spirit.
Mediums should not be doormats (Dear Abby's, give medical advice), expect to be 100% correct or look for negative things while giving a reading. They should not take on everyone's problems. Mediums will drain and tire quickly if they do.
I have seen what I call "The Doomsday Mediums" out there. Beware of this in yourself. Look at your messages... are you seeing bad things happening to people most of the time? Are you looking for such things? I know a medium who was very good at describing blood and gut situations but could not see any "good" things around a person when doing a reading. She had set this as her "mode" and it became a habit.
Spirits will do everything they can to get a message to you. They use your thoughts.. your mental library... to tap into to give you messages. You must really keep your mind open to all mental pictures or feelings you receive.
There are volumes of information in libraries these days.
If you really feel that you would like to enhance your God-given gift,
then you must also be prepared to become the patient student and study,
study, study. With many books come many different ways of mediumship.
Keep what feels right to you. . .explore it. I don't believe we are
given more than we can
handle. . .and if you miss something, it will come around
again.
Here are a few things I would recommend to a beginning medium:
1. Write down those experiences in which you feel you made a connection to spirit, no matter how subtle.
2. As mentioned above, read all the books you can on the subject.
3. Watch other readers. Make notes of what you admire and what turns you off.
4. Remind yourself that you are a child of God. Therefore, you are worthy to do this. Have faith in yourself.
5. Find an online friend who would be
more than happy to be your "guinea pig." Each time you meet, try
to envision
what color they are wearing, then
ask.
6. Remember that even when you are wrong, you are still working that "psychic muscle" and that's always good.
7. When you begin to read for others,
let them know you are new! Being upfront is being fair to you and
them and removes
added pressure.
When I first started my mediumship, I wasn't much of a medium. I was actually more of a psychic. It wasn't long before I could go through a list of names in a channel and tell them all their birth months. It was later as I focused my energy on what was around people, not so much the people themselves,..that I started to see their loved ones.
Mediumship is energy..and you have to learn to tune into
it. You will find that at first you will tire very quickly doing
readings. That's normal. But if you have been reading a long
time and you tire easily, that means you are not letting spirit do their
job. When you let their energy flow, messages come clearer and you
almost have a sense of jumping off of your chair from their energy.
This, too, is something that you will learn to tone down so that your own
hypersensitivy does not interfere with the
messages.
So for now.. as a beginner.. consider yourself a student of the metaphysical and be prepared for a lifetime of learning, sharing and healing. Now get in your car and go check out a book!
God bless,
