Mastering Your Mediumship Skills: Lessons from the Spirit World

So, you want to master your mediumship skills? Brilliant! But let me burst the bubble early: it’s not all about flickering candles, dramatic revelations, and spooky whispers in the dark. (Though, fair warning, the occasional light flicker will make you jump.) Mediumship is more about patience, practice, and yes, learning to laugh when spirit delivers a message in the most awkward way possible.

Here are some lessons straight from the spirit world (with a sprinkle of humour, because let’s face it, spirit loves a good giggle too).

1. Trust the Wobbles

If you think mastering mediumship means feeling confident 100% of the time, think again. Even the most experienced mediums have days where they wonder if they’re making it all up. The key? Trust the wobbles. Doubt isn’t a sign you’re failing; it’s a sign you’re human.

2. Spirit Likes to Keep It Simple

You’re waiting for a profound, earth-shattering message, and spirit delivers… “Tell her about the yellow mug.” Yep, sometimes it’s that random. But those small, seemingly insignificant details? They’re often the exact validation someone needs. Spirit knows what matters, even if it’s not what you expected.

3. Practice Like It’s a Workout (Without the Gym Membership)

Mediumship is like any skill—it improves with practice. Think of it as spiritual fitness. The more you flex your intuitive muscles, the stronger they get. Regular practice circles, one-to-one readings, or even reading for your sceptical Aunt Karen all help.

4. Get Comfortable with “No”

Hearing “no” during a reading isn’t the end of the world. It’s just feedback, not a personal attack from the universe. Spirit isn’t grading you, and every “no” is an opportunity to fine-tune your connection. Besides, even the best mediums get the occasional cosmic curveball.

5. Spirit Has a Sense of Humour (And They’re Not Afraid to Use It)

Think spirit communication is all solemn messages from beyond? Think again. They love to lighten the mood. Expect the occasional joke, playful nudge, or an image so bizarre you can’t help but laugh. (Yes, that time I saw a dancing chicken was a real message… and it made perfect sense to the sitter.)

6. Boundaries Are Your Best Friend

Being open to spirit doesn’t mean being “on call” 24/7. Set boundaries, both energetically and emotionally. It’s okay to say, “Not now,” to spirit (preferably when you’re not in the middle of a supermarket aisle).

7. Keep It Real

The most powerful readings aren’t the flashy ones; they’re the ones rooted in authenticity. Be yourself. Deliver messages with honesty, even if they seem simple. Spirit speaks through you, not some polished version of you pretending to be a spiritual guru with perfect posture.

How to Keep Growing (Without Overthinking It)

• Stay Curious: There’s always more to learn. Keep exploring new techniques, teachers, and experiences.

• Reflect: After readings, jot down what went well and what felt off. It helps more than you think.

• Find Your Community: Surround yourself with other mediums who get it—the highs, the lows, and the “Did that really just happen?” moments.

Final Thoughts (Because Spirit Loves a Good Wrap-Up Too)

Mastering your mediumship skills isn’t about being perfect. It’s about showing up, staying open, and trusting the process—even when the message is about a yellow mug or a dancing chicken. Spirit meets you where you are, wobbles and all. So keep practicing, keep laughing, and most importantly, keep listening.
