You’ve probably heard phrases like “all humans are mammals, but not all mammals are humans.” This concept that one thing is another but the other is not necessarily the only type of the first is an important distinction when trying to differentiate between a psychic and a medium. They are not necessarily the same thing.
Let’s do a bit of definition first. A medium is a person who has an active connection to the spirit world and is often able to communicate with those who have passed, spirit guides, and other spiritual entities and energies. Also, all mediums are psychics. On the other hand, a psychic is a person who can tune into the energy of people and objects and can use this energy to observe and determine things about the past and future. Also, psychics tend to rely heavily on their intuition and instincts to make predictions. Not all psychics are mediums.
I usually work mainly as a psychic, but I am also a medium. I find that mediumship requires a completely different level of focus, awareness, and energy production to perform, whereas psychic work tends to be a bit easier. Because we have all lost a loved one, most people tend to want to know more about mediumship and how it works, so my goal is to explain it to you.
My experience as a psychic medium will not be the same as someone else’s. When I work as a psychic medium and “see” the Spirit through clairvoyance, people often wonder if I am actually seeing the spirit physically (so to speak) in the room. Yes and no. If you grew up in the late 1980s and early 1990s, you’ll remember the transparencies in your school classrooms. One teacher was able to take a sheet of transparent paper and place it over a machine that would inflate the image on the paper and project it onto the wall. This is how I experience the Spirit when I see them. It is as if someone placed a transparency over the world. The “Hear” Spirit is very different. In fact, I get words written on a huge mental movie screen that I can then read and pass on to a client.
As with any profession, there are mediums who specialize in certain things, such as helping law enforcement solve crimes. There are other means that help trapped souls to cross over to the other side. I don’t deal with law enforcement at all and have only had to help a trapped soul cross once, which is something that happened when I helped a friend who lived in a genuinely haunted house.
I think it’s important to keep in mind that despite what a psychic may tell you regarding your future, you need to realize that nothing you see is completely set in stone. The energy patterns change and there is the whole concept of free will. I’ve also found that working as a medium, it’s often not the crusaders who require my help, it’s those they’ve left behind who have trouble dealing with their absence.
With any reading, it’s important to keep an open mind and set a positive intention for Spirit so you can get the most out of your experience. Let your intuition and instincts guide you to who should do a reading for you, keeping in mind that there is no one closer to your deceased loved ones than you!
