mediumship

A Medium is a link between this world and the
spirit world, and everybody alive has Mediumistic
capabilities of some kind.
Most well known is
Mental Mediumship uses our Psychic senses
for the communication between the two worlds.
It can be split into three more categories -
Clairvoyance, Clairaudience and Clairsentience.
Clairvoyance. A person who is Clairvoyant can
see Spirits. This usually means they see the person
communicating in their minds eye, which can be in
the form of a picture or like watching a television
in your head. Some Mediums can see Spirits with their
Physical eyes as if there is another person in the same
room as themselves. The Medium will then describe what they see to whoever is having a reading. It is not always people that Mediums see, it can also be animals or even objects and symbols. Some objects will be given to the Medium to be interpreted symbolically.
Clairaudience. With this form of Mediumship the person hears the spirit communicating with them. Again this can be voices in the Mediums head or thoughts running through the mind. Sometimes a Medium will actually hear someone talking to them with their physical ears. The medium will not only "hear" voices but can also be given music or singing.
Clairsentience. This in some schools of Mediumship is the most common form and experienced very often by people just beginning to understand the gift that they have. This type of Mediumship takes the form of the Medium sensing a spirit presence, usually through feelings. Mediums often feel as if they are being touched, feelings of cold or slight breezes wafting past them. Sometimes they can have the feeling of cobwebs on their face or can even smell fragrances associated with the spirit presence of their time on earth.
Mediums will use one or more of these forms of communication in order to convey messages from the spirit world.
Physical Mediumship endeavors to have those in the spirit world communicate through some Physical means. It is not as common today as it was in Victorian times and the early twentieth century. The types of Physical phenomenon usually encountered are Transfiguration, Ectoplasm, "Voice Trumpets", Materialisation and Apports...

Benefits, that you will have receiving Mediumship Reading : closure of some kind, giving and receiving loving messages and/or advice, knowing that deceased loved ones are ok, receiving the guidance from them, connecting with your decesaed loved ones on a different level, find out how your loved ones are doing on another side and hear any other messages that they bring through - can be specific or general...
... Contacting Spirit is very powerful and it brings Blessings to everyone involved.

When I communicate with deceased loved ones it's usually mixture of seing Spirits with my mind's eye and/or physical eyes for starters followed by feeling Spirit and then Hearing. Spirits are very happy and willing to talk, some of them can't wait to get the chance to talk. The best way to think about Spirit is as about anyone who is still alive in physical form. Deceased loved ones usually have the same characteristics and energy as when they were still alive, they just simply don't have the physical body anymore- even if they show themselves in their physical form.
