When I first began my mediumistic practice, I was like a kid in a candy store. I wanted to try everything. These are a few things I did that I would not do today.
1. I bought a recorder to capture EVP’s, (electronic voice phenomenon), an EMF meter to detect energy nearby, took photos in the dark to capture orbs, and I went to cemeteries to communicate with spirits. I basically did my own personal ghost hunting and definitely encountered spiritual activity. I would not do any of this today and consider it dangerous. There are many spirits out there seeking to “play” with unsuspecting medium newbies or ghost hunters.
2. I asked to connect with spirits of people I knew and I would put out there what I received without permission of the people I knew. I was so thrilled myself that I was actually communicating with spirits, and I wanted everybody to know. Today, the only people who need to know that I am a medium are the people that my guides send to me for the purpose of healing spirit communication.
3. I offered free readings online. I would not do this today as it undermines not only my energy and effort, but the energy and effort of the spirits coming through. Anyone who is not willing to pay for a reading does not want a reading.
4. I joined a Facebook mediumship practice group with thousands of people and all readings were via photographs. This is no different than ghost hunting in that you have no idea what kind of spirit you are engaging with in the physical or spirit realm. There were many times I felt off about what I was receiving. Today, I work with my guides and I am never confused about how to proceed.
5. Feeling the need to let people know I am a medium. I no longer have this need. I know it does not make me special in their eyes, and in fact, it makes others uncomfortable, especially if they are not aligned with spirit communication. And there is no way I can know this. When you work with spirit in this way, they do the marketing for you.
6. Fearing that nothing will come during a mediumship reading. My fear paralyzed me so much that it prevented clear communication. My ego wanted badly to not fail. Today, fear of failure does not paralyze me. I know spirit will speak if I allow it. With the passage of time, I have become more receptive and communication is more readily available.
The Purple Ray of Light governs forgiveness, transformation and spiritual growth. While we all carry the Divine rays to varying degrees, at certain points, a specific ray will be more prominent. If you pay attention, you can know what is prominent for you. I am in purple right now.
