A psychic is a person who connects well with their intuitive senses, higher dimensions and spirit guides, and can read energy. A medium is someone who communicates with souls who have crossed over, usually for clients. Someone who can do both is called a psychic medium. These people are usually empaths who can feel the underlying energy of a person or place.
Understanding the World of Psychic Mediums
A psychic medium combines two powerful intuitive abilities. A psychic connects with intuitive senses, higher dimensions, and spirit guides to read energy. A medium communicates with souls who have crossed over. Someone skilled in both practices is called a psychic medium—typically an empath who can sense the underlying energy of people and places.
Everyone possesses intuitive abilities they use both consciously and unconsciously. Those gut feelings guiding you are often messages from spirit guides—souls who have lived many lifetimes and now help us navigate our journey.
How Psychic Readings Work
When you seek guidance from a psychic, they connect with your spirit guides to gather information. Whether using tarot cards or other methods, psychics communicate with your Master spirit guide to provide insights. During sessions, I can perceive your Master guide through my third-eye, usually standing at my side. These guides always radiate loving, nonjudgmental, and compassionate energy.
A talented psychic medium can help you navigate challenging situations with honesty and approachability. Their insights should resonate deeply, even when delivering difficult truths rather than just what you want to hear.
The Qualities of an Authentic Psychic Medium
True psychic mediums focus entirely on you during sessions, without distractions about approval, money, or fame. They deliver information warmly but impartially. Many psychics unconsciously allow distractions to interfere with their channeling, compromising accuracy.
Even sincere psychics can let personal beliefs affect readings. Some might misinterpret a client’s need for love or judge situations like affairs. Being human, unconscious judgment happens. Others feel pressured to appear all-knowing. I avoid these pitfalls by staying focused and unbiased, relaying only what your guide communicates without interpretation.
Understanding Mediumship
Mediums connect people with those who have passed away, often preparing through meditation. Each medium has their unique approach. Most use “open channeling” to sense loved ones around you without guaranteeing who comes through. When a medium provides clear validations, they offer healing and closure.
My mediumship service is different—you provide the first name and relationship of the person you wish to connect with. Loved ones share personality traits, current emotions, and convey love and advice when needed. They’re thrilled to connect with you and provide validations as evidence of their presence.
The Mediumship Process
Mediums don’t control souls on the other side; the departed choose their own validations. They won’t necessarily provide very specific information you want, like a favorite number or nickname—it would be intrusive and overwhelming to a medium to get every piece of information about them. Each session has its natural flow.
Psychics vs. Mediums: Understanding the Difference
The main difference between psychics and mediums is how they serve clients. Both offer valuable insights in different ways. Every psychic and medium has unique talents, approaches, and techniques.
Some say “all mediums are psychic, but not all psychics are mediums,” but that’s not entirely accurate. Every person can potentially connect with departed loved ones and develop intuitive abilities. However, not everyone chooses to use these gifts professionally, finding it draining or unsuitable for other reasons.
How to Choose the Right Psychic Medium
Trust your first instinct when reviewing a psychic medium’s website. A brief conversation can help assess compatibility—their voice and photos convey energy that helps determine if you’ll work well together.
Select someone experienced and approachable rather than egoistic. If information during a session doesn’t feel true, don’t accept it—but distinguish between resistance to difficult truths and genuinely incorrect information. Allow a few days to fully absorb the reading.
While rates matter, prioritize finding a psychic medium who resonates with you over bargain hunting or paying premium prices for disappointing readings from well-marketed practitioners. With the right psychic medium, you can experience a truly transformative session that provides clarity and healing.
Discover Your Own Intuitive Gifts
As you’ve learned, psychic mediums possess heightened intuitive abilities that allow them to connect with energies and spirits beyond our physical world. But what about your own intuitive potential? Many people who are drawn to psychic readings actually possess empathic abilities themselves. If you’ve ever walked into a room and immediately sensed the “vibe,” known who was calling before checking your phone, or felt someone’s emotions as if they were your own, you might be more intuitive than you realize.
