Mediums & Psychics


It is my opinion that paranormal investigations would be pointless and boring if we were to rely only on modern technological equipment. It is said that everybody is psychic in some way; it just needing to be awakened in our subconscious, probably lying dormant there from way back to times of pre-history when the psychic senses were a necessary part of survival in everyday life.

A psychic is an individual who is sufficiently sensitive to react to psychic influences around them, from the energy of places and people, and who pays attention to their normal intuitive awareness. Some have the ability to do this more than others, as their intuitive ability is more pronounced.

All psychics are not mediums, however all mediums are psychic.

A medium is a far more sensitive individual, whose heightened sense of mental awareness can be used in a personal reading, forming a link between the Spirit of a departed friend or loved one, who is anxious or willing, to communicate with someone still in the physical world on earth.

The psychics, whether conscious of it or not, receive or draw their information from the living vibrations of energy around them at earthly levels. A medium on the other hand has the ability to tune in to the higher levels and faster vibrations of energy above the earthly plain. Tuning in this way information is received from beyond the normal communication levels used by mankind. A medium therefore is a most important, if not essential part of any paranormal investigative team.

Mediums can be: Claircognizant, Clairaudient, Clairvoyant, Clairsentient, Clairgustant & Clariscentrist.
