Have you ever wondered exactly what Mediums do or don’t do? There are so many titles out there along with media illusions that it can be difficult to understand facts versus fiction. It is always great to be informed when making a decision to connect with a Medium. Here are some common misunderstandings regarding Mediums, mediumship, and connecting to loved ones in Spirit. You may even get some inside tips when you choosing your Medium.

Common Myths about Mediums Myth 1: Mediums only talk to loved ones in Spirit

This is a common myth. Some clients say, “Hey, you can’t tell me about past, present, and future right?” Wrong. Mediums have the ability to connect with Spirit Guides and loved ones in Spirit. They can develop a skill set with Spirit Guides to deliver messages regarding the client’s past, present, future and loved ones in Spirit. Loved ones in Spirit are subjective. They still can have an attachment to their family who are living, so the messages are more their opinion. Spirit Guides can come through and deliver objective messages. This can be helpful regarding future events in relationship, career, etc. The message is always from Spirit with Mediums.

TRUTH: Mediums talk with loved ones in Spirit and Spirit Guides, and they can deliver messages about the past, present, and future.

Myth 2: How do I know if a Medium is connecting with my psyche or a loved one in Spirit?

This may be a question rather than a myth. Mediums connect with your Spirit Guides and receive information from Spirit. That means they do not receive information from you. The technical definition of psychic in Spiritualist belief is connecting “mind to mind.” While all Mediums are psychic, not all psychics are Mediums. Mediums often deliver messages and details that you aren’t even thinking about or may not even know. Sometimes loved ones in Spirit come through in your reading for you to deliver a message to someone else you know. For example: A loved one in Spirit may come through for your neighbor. You deliver the message to your neighbor and he/she understands who the Spirit is and the message. You never knew the deceased person.
