What is a Psychic Medium?

A psychic medium is a person who is sensitive to extrasensory stimuli and uses this sensitivity to connect with and communicate for loved ones in Spirit and for the living.Every psychic medium has their own abilities and specialities, which means that no set list of requirements really defines a medium other than a medium has the ability to connect and communicate with those no longer on the Earth plane.
Mental Mediumship is the type of mediumship that you may be most aware of and is the type of mediumship that Amy is gifted in. Mental Mediumship means the medium experiences the connection with Spirit in the mind, not in the physical sense.
Some ways in which a mental medium will experience a Spirit person is through 6 psychic senses also known as ‘Clair Senses’.
These are much like your physical senses except they are experienced in the mind of a medium.
- Clairvoyance (Clear Seeing)
- Clairaudience (Clear Hearing)
- Clairsentience (Clear Feeling)
- Clairalience (Clear Smelling)
- Clairgustance (Clear tasting); and
- Claircognizance (Clear Knowing)
Another type of mediumship is Physical Mediumship, this is less common in current times. A Physical medium is said to physically blend with the energy of the Spirit person and that the Spirit speaks and moves through the medium.
The main difference between these two types of mediumship is that one is that the Medium is blending mentally with the Spirit person and is using his/her own abilities and life experiences to interpret and communicate the messages on behalf of the Spirit person.
Whereas, in physical mediumship, the medium is a physical vessel for the Spirit person to act out his/her messages with the mediums body. She experiences mental mediumship and channels Spirits messages via spoken and written words.
