Are mediums really communicating with deceased loved ones, or just reading our emotions?

“But I do get readings time to time because I do think when you lose a loved one, we could connect in our own way, but sometimes it's good for validation to have that interdimensional communication with a trusted, effective medium.”33:26

“And, um, I, I don't call myself a medium, but I do get information from people who were put past, and from our perspective, and I always have a certain kind of physical sensation when somebody shows up, quote, who is no longer alive in this time, or is no longer recognized to be alive in this time.”37:05

“Based on various comments, I understand there are certain reservations about mediumistic communications. This is because perhaps there are many people who call themselves mediums in esoteric circles but whose messages actually contribute little to creditably and answering questions on life after death. As a result, the general acceptance of mediumistic communication suffers.”0:52

“feeling of this love. How I had felt it when I was on earth and I had felt it in times, you know, like talking to strangers. I had felt it, you know, obviously with my family, but I I had felt it when um I I am not a medium. I want to say it cuz you probably going to get this. People be like, "Are you a medium?" What? I am not a medium. People do People have contacted me. Hey, can you speak to the dead people? Can you whatever can. And I'm like, listen, it's not that it's not possible to happen.”33:28

“and uh this man here is also a medium or meant to be a medium and I remember I got very emotional. There was kind of like a spiritual recognition of this person uh perhaps like seeing a very old friend who took a different path. It's not the path I meant to go in this lifetime, but someone who I could kind of connect with and still resonate with. And she ended up sharing some information that along the and she actually started saying a bunch of things that kind of spooked members of my family cuz they were”27:32

“So, to make a long story short, after that, I uh became a medium with the ability because once I heard that one person, I started to be able to connect. Like I'm leaving a lot out here, but people started calling me for readings, and I realized I then had the ability to communicate with people that have died.”11:21

“But, you know, I do get readings time to time because I do think when you lose a loved one, we could connect in our own way, but sometimes it's good for validation to have that interdimensional communication with a tested, effective medium.”9:34

“And so that is about bringing messages. I would say is a lot of that is evidential mediumship reading where you're connecting with your loved ones in the spirit world.”11:27

“So I do both. So those are considered psychic reads, okay? But then the mediumship read is specifically when, um, um, loved ones come in and, and they connect and they have a message to share.”40:03

“Uh, so yeah, um, I am a medium, which means I can talk to people who have crossed over. I'm an empath, but times a million. So I can see, feel, hear, and sense things other people can't. I can feel everybody's feelings always, if I want to, which if I'm not working, I kind of have a boundary where I don't. I am what I call spiritually intuitive. Others may say psychic.”13:43

“When these spirits come through, they communicate a lot through the equipment and through a thought process, like, I, I know what she's saying, like a medium would do, like a medium or psychic would say, "This is a message from you from Aunt John," I mean, and Aunt Jane, um, or Uncle John.”32:00

“They are able to see in spirit how you felt and perceived a conflict and whatever was leading up to that conflict. It's like they get that mountaintop perspective. And in mediumship, they're often able to help me feel why they took the attitude they did, what they were feeling and thinking at the time of this conflict, and give apologies. So, for example, I just a week ago had a mediumship session with a young woman and her brother in spirit. And the brother in spirit helped me feel shortly before they died, they”40:32

“I am a relatively new medium. It's not something that I ever expected to be doing, and I am totally awed when I sit with somebody and give them a reading and connect them with their loved ones that they thought were gone forever.”40:21

“heal. I found that mediums have given evidential mediums have given readings, you know, many times throughout their experience where a loved one has reincarnated. But that ability to still connect even through the medium, through that loved one's soul is still there. And that just shows you that and again this is very going to be very thoughtprovokative but our existence here isn't all that there is as we know and there's still a part of us that even lives on the other side. You know this who we are in this”83:26

“It's interesting to try to categorize all these things because mediumship specifically has to do with a person serving as a medium of communication between a deceased or discarnate and a living person, whereas just the idea of having out-of-body experiences in order to meet spiritual entities, there's no like message to be communicated to somebody. So it's like a related but different thing, unless you were sent on a mission to visit a specific person and bring back a message.”48:23

“Because what happened with these mediums was that they would withdraw from their bodies, and their guides would take over and start speaking, but they had your loved one right there with them.”2:17
