How I Do Psychic Readings
I am often asked how I receive information in my readings, as I do not use any divination methods or tools. I don’t know how or why I am able to say what I say in reaction to the question on hand.
It’s almost like there is two versions of me (no, I’m not bipolar, nor do I have split personalities). One is the everyday me who lives in this physical world, and the other is my higher self. It is this higher self version of me who channels the information during readings.
I get information is various ways. I spontaneously ‘know’ things, ‘see’ images and symbols, ‘hear’ words and sounds, as well as physical symptoms, sensations, and tastes.
I simply say what I ‘get,’ exactly as I receive the vibration, notion, energy from the question. I am not paid as a psychic reader for offer my own personal ideas or opinions. My clients pay for metaphysical insight and spiritual guidance to help them with their life challenges.
Now, how do I get this symbolic information from my mind to your ears, so that you will receive it in such a way that you will understand or identify with it? Well, simply through practice, practice, and more practice.
Psychic reading is like learning to play an instrument. Musical talent alone is not enough. You have to learn to read the music symbols on a piece of sheet music and transform it into sounds through that instrument.
Psychic readers build their personal set of symbols over many years. For example, for me seeing a ‘tree’ is about self or home. If the tree is twisted-looking or has wires holding it up, it means the person, or their home situation is not doing so well. If the leaves are brown, there is grief, loss or sadness involved.
Mental Mediumship
There are two forms of psychic mediumship: physical and mental. Physical mediumship is instead the manipulation of energies and energy systems by spirits. This type of mediumship is involves physical manifestations that can be observed by others, such voices; tapping, raps and other noises; apports (materialized objects), and materialized spirit apparitions.
Mental mediumship however only utilizes the mind and is purely mental phenomenon. Forms of mental mediumship include perceptions of clairvoyance (seeing), clairsentience (sensing), claircognizance (knowing), clairaudience (hearing), clairempathy (feeling), clairolfaction (smelling), clairgustance (tasting), clairtangence (touching), inspirational speaking, automatic writing, and energy healing. These mental aspects express more of the personality of a medium than the physical aspects, as all thoughts come through the mind of the instrument.
The sending and receiving of thought vibrations by the human mind has been known to man since the dawn of time. Telepathy and psychokinesis have also been extensively studied in parapsychology. I believe the thought vibrations sent out from the human brain take on form and persist in the ether after the individual sending them has forgotten all about them.
These thought waves have the ability to interact with the thought waves of others that come within the same range of vibration. In other words, like attracts like. A person thinking thoughts of a certain nature will attract to themselves from the ether thoughts of a like nature that have been sent out by other individuals.
Each individual is a sending and also a receiving ‘station,’ all attuned to a unique frequency or rate of vibration. As a result, it is best to send out those kind of thoughts that will attract to us only similar thoughts of a constructive nature.
The Gifts Of Psychic Communication
How does a loved one in the spirit realm communicate with a psychic medium? Actually, there are many methods of communication that spirit may use to reach us. It mostly depends on the relevant psychic or medium. Each reader or channeler has different psychic abilities.
Some of us can see, while others hear, sense or feel. These abilities are more commonly known as the ‘clair senses.’ Reputable psychics and mediums will always do their best to communicate what they perceive using the various psychic senses. It is advisable to get your psychic readings only from psychics and mediums who have one or more of these abilities.
Clairvoyance (clear seeing): the ability to ‘see.’ It is the psychic ability to see visions in the mind’s eye. It is typically experienced as mental flashes or visual imagery.
Clairaudience (clear hearing) – the psychic ability to hear messages being spoken by spirit.
Clairempathy (clear feeling) –the ability to feel the emotions of others in this world and the next.
Clairsentience (clear sensing) – more commonly known as intuition, such as a hunch or gut feeling.
Claircognizance (clear knowing) – the psychic ability of just knowing things. Along with clairsentience this is the most common psychic ability.
Clairolfaction ( clear smelling) – the psychic ability associated with smells, such as smelling a departed loved one’s favorite perfume.
Developing Your Spirit Communication Skills
Spirit communication is the process of sending and receiving information to and from the spirit realm. This process can sometimes be overwhelming for individuals. The spirit realm and nature sends us inspiration, messages, comfort and guidance. In every moment of every day we receive information. Are we deciphering that information correctly? Are we also clear in our requests to Spirit?
There are many ways spirit communicates with us. For example, a synchronistic song playing on the radio, which we associate with a loved one in Spirit; unusual behaviors, or unexpected appearances of animals, birds or insects; seeing so-called ‘angel numbers’ or synchronistic clock times like 11:11 or 12:12; Ouija board messages, as well as Tarot and oracle card signs; pendulum dowsing; and dreams.
Then there are messages relayed by intuitives, psychics and mediums during professional readings, using the clair senses, channeling, divination and mediumship. These modes of communication can be natural for some, but also a developed skill for others.
Were you a child that had imaginary friends or saw relatives who were dead? If so, then you have the innate capability pre-developed, but you may need to enhance and strengthen your communication ability. Not to become a professional psychic reader, but to be better connected in life. Strengthening comes through discipline, commitment and a passion to be of service.
Why I Do Readings
The main thing I notice about being a channel is the focus on what healing is, its purpose, and how being a healer in service to others is held against being selfish.
If someone is fulfilled by sacrificial service (victim-savior relations) and this is their mission in life, then they would likely derive the greatest joys from this kind of sacrifice, because Spirit would bring them seekers who want that type of service. It is a sacrifice, indeed, although often cleverly disguised as a helping venue.
In any case, one can pick any way of healing that resonates for you. For me, I find that I prefer to educate my clients in terms of what an empath can and cannot (or should not do) in my opinion. Personally, I am not fulfilled by victim-savior scenarios. I don’t find them to be healthy on any level.
All the same, I used to fall into the trap of trying to ‘fix’ people, to the point that it was my main modus operandi in life – being prey for others that are seeking life source energy from others. I discontinued doing that when I realized several truths:
Seven Types Of Psychic Ability
In the psychic world we often refer to the seven “clairs” when discussing psychic abilities. “Clair” is French for “clear.” In the mortal, mundane world, we receive messages via text, email, or in person all the time. In the psychic realm there are almost infinite numbers of ways to send and receive messages, and if you’re gifted with one of the “clairs” as some people are, you will know this.
While we as humans only have five senses, there are believed to be seven basic types of psychic ability: clairvoyance, clairsentience, clairaudience, clairtangency, clairscent, clairgustance, and claircognizance.

Take Note, You Receive Signs Every Day!
We get signs all the times from our spirit guides and angels, but we more often than not do not recognize them. We do not realize that some of the miracles that happen in our lives today, were revealed to us a long time ago. A good way to see these patterns of manifestation in our lives is to keep journal.
I often suggest to my clients that they write stuff down, even if it was from a dream they felt had no significance at the time. If the dream seems very strong it is best to write it down, because there is always reason why you had that dream. The same applies to personal intuitions and information you receive during readings that does not make sense at the time. Continue reading
