Good spiritual mediums are immensely important during this time of global spiritual awakening. They are a communications medium bridging the gap between earth and spirit, providing infinite healing, learning and understanding, and proving that death is not the end.
Continuing on from part 1 of the basics of mediumship, here are some...
Further Considerations When Training to Become a Spiritual Medium
It is highly inadvisable to make future
predictions during a reading and you may notice that good mediums
don't generally do this except in circumstances where the cause of
an outcome is already set in motion. The future is not written. Each
of us is endowed with freewill on our journeys of learning and
discovery. At each and every decision we make, chance event, or
accident, there's a fork in the road. Reality can go one way or
another, and then either way again.
If a medium makes future predictions for you, then you know they are not serving you in the best intentions. For example, the medium can see you are expecting a baby and hints about it being a boy or a girl. This is acceptable because the outcome is already rather certain. However, if a medium recommends that you and your partner should take a relationship break and that it will last six months, they may not be acting in your best interests. Would you still have taken the relationship break if they hadn't have suggested the idea? If so, is it more likely that you'll believe that six months is the right amount of time?

Spiritual mediums must be skilled with
people. Often you're dealing with grief stricken clients. A man might
come to you because his wife has died, he could be pinning his
happiness on your reading. It's very important to be able to counsel
the client though their time with you, with sensitivity and care.
Never ever make up or create spirit contact in order to make someone
feel better, you must be honest even if you're struggling to make a
connection.
Realize what you're letting yourself in
for when spirit communication gets intense. A client may be feeling
emotional and at the same time, you're perceiving the cause of death
from the spirit. The likelihood of these testing situations
occurring should be considered before training in mediumship.
You must always request that the divine
light guides you in your spiritual communication for the highest
good, learning and healing. This insures that your own guides are
primed to protect you against any stray entity that may want to get
in on the conversation.
Surroundings and atmosphere are very
important, you must be calm and undisturbed during spirit contact.
Meditation is part of the way of life of a spiritual medium. You must
remain in tune with universal energies and with the spirit world.
It's also required for calming the mind, emptying it ready for
spirits to convey concepts. This will remove the confusion between
your own thoughts and spirit communication.
Intent should be set before initiating
communication, perhaps that you would like to communicate with your
client's relatives for example, and see who comes through. The intent
goes out into the spirit world to be acted upon.
Your own life experiences will effect
how you convey messages to a client. Your memories and perceptions
dictate the bank of symbols and concepts that spirits can choose
from when presenting ideas to you clairvoyantly. It's important to be
well read and have experienced life as much as possible so that there
are many such archetypes for spirits to draw upon during communication.
Let information flow into your mind and
sensations into your body from spirit, and don't force it. The more
of an empty vessel you can be during a session, the easier you will feel the
communication coming through. Put your consciousness aside for a time
and let the energies flow through you. Do your best to verbalize the
information you're receiving. It can be difficult to put some
concepts into words, especially clairsentient ones. You might
suddenly feel a complex series of emotions or sensations, for
example; you feel like a racing driver, a reckless one, then
physically feel pain and the emotion of fear. The sensations can come
thick and fast and you must try to put all of this into words. It
makes you realize the limitations of language at times.
While you're letting the communication
flow, leave the analysis until after the reading. You can advise your
client to bring a pad and paper to write everything down during the
reading. Many important details can be forgotten if the reading is
not recorded or transcribed.
Validation is hugely important to the
client and a primary goal as a good medium. Aim to remove all doubt
about the validity of the spirit communication. Dates, ages, names,
and places are useful. Even better are personal things and instances
that only the spirit and the client know about. See the client's face
light up when you hit the nail on the head! Satisfaction is in the
details. A generic overall view of the client's life is not usually
satisfactory, neither is plentiful life advice. Prove the continuance
of life through irrefutable little details that only the spirit would
know, ask for such details and validations from spirit, they may not
automatically be given. The amount of comfort this can bring to the
client is immense.

Send out thoughts using your mind as
questions to spirit in order to stimulate communication. Spirit
contact is two way. Ask for communication to slow down if you're
receiving too much too quickly. Remember that you're in control of the
contact and you can shut it down any time. You may have a number of
spirits jostling for your attention, especially if you're doing a
group reading or in front of an audience. Ask your spirit guides to keep
order in love and light.
Deliver the message in a non biased way
because you are just the messenger. As you're communicating with
spirits that are effectively strangers to you, you may need to ask
the client for confirmation of information you receive to check if
you're on the right track. Do not ask questions of the client
however, or only very few if absolutely necessary.
Use your intuition about any situation
and close a session if you feel something is not right. Spirits do
not come through to you to scare you but you must have boundaries set
out. Remind your spirit guides at every session to explain to spirit visitors your rules for contact. These rules should be pre-decided and agreed with your
spirit guides. Rules include, the level of physical sensation you're
prepared to receive upon conveying, for example, the cause of death.
A blow to the head would not be well received, rather a tingling in
the head. Set out that possession is forbidden as well as overly
explicit emotional transfer, for example, being reduced to tears by
feeling a spirit's sadness or feeling an excessive amount of romantic
love toward a client. It happens, and part of your spirit guide's
responsibilities is to regulate the energy transfer from spirit to
you.
You must also specify boundaries to
your guides that spirit contact is limited to client sessions and not
to visit you in dreams or during your spare time. Sometimes a spirit
can be hanging around for hours before a session, but
as you're in control, you can ask them to come back later!
Visualize a door closing in your mind
when it's time for contact to end. Contact can sometimes be quick but
other times spirits may linger. Messages can be dark and
other times full of joy.
Occasionally, spirits come forward with
messages for people other than the client, so the client must act as a messenger. If the message does not make sense to them,
ask them to write it down and ask family or friends. It will
often make sense later.
Never act solely on what a medium or
spirit says, and remind your client of the same. If auntie Betty was
bad at giving advice in life she may be bad at giving advice in
spirit. Being in spirit does not make entities all seeing and all
knowing – although it does provide an edge.
Practice, practice and practice some
more. Then meditate some more too. These are the best ways to develop
your mediumistic skills. It's likely that your spirit guides have
been around you all your life, waiting for you to be ready to take
this step. Whether you take up spiritual mediumship in your spare
time or professionally, do it in truth, love and light and with the
highest intent - you can make a huge difference to people's lives! You're helping them to heal, realize that life goes on, to make the most of
life, and that their loved ones are never far away. They will see
them again someday!
