Reader Question

Hi I just read your blog on the tell tale signs you’re a medium and I think I might be and I'm so scared I think there were only 1 or 2 things on the list that didn't apply to me. How do I find out if I am?

I'm freaking out just a little and would be grateful for any advice.

If you are even asking the question, the answer is YES, you are a medium. Recognizing this as a possibility often means that a little of the possibility already exists in you.

Now, the next questions you might be asking are:

Okay, well how do I learn how to manage it?

Okay, well how do I start using it?

Or my personal favorite,

Okay, well how can I get rid of it?

Sadly, you can’t get rid of it, but you can embrace it. 

You can numb it, you can ignore it, you can avoid it and pretend it doesn’t exist. You can try to affirm it away or you can numb it out with noise from the television or radio.

You can also accept it, begin to learn about it, and stop beating yourself up over it. You are who you are.

Oracles, or prophets as they were called in other times were once considered royals of populations.

Families often accept a person’s intuitive abilities once you embrace them, learn about them, and come up with a way to intelligently explain them or showcase them to the people you love.

One of the best ways to begin to explore your gifts is simply by sorting through the resources here.

Start learning about your gifts by using the resources on the blog and start with these posts:

I would also suggest learning about the different types of mediumship, the different types of mediums, and the different ways psychic mediumship abilities can manifest.

Mediumship is more natural, loving and beautiful than some media have made it out to be. 

Nor are Spirits as awful as some television series would have you believe.

I wish I knew that before others convinced me that I had reason to be scared of the ability to connect with Spirits. Sensing Angels, Loved Ones or even the energy coming from others can be a beautiful thing.

Being a medium is so much more than talking to the deceased, too, it’s also having heightened empathy, being able to feel and read energy, or even see the future in some cases.

So there are benefits to being a medium. 

If you learn to manage it, accept it and understand it, and own it, it can begin to feel natural after a while, as if it was something that was always there.
