When you think of going to see a Medium it might be worth remembering, What they claim to do is a gift and not really to be used for self gain ie making money.

I have been to one "open meeting" and was not impressed at all....I have yet to visit my local spiritualist church...I prefer one to one x

And no one, mediums or whoever, seem able to answer some very basic questions which surely should be fundamental to a belief in the spirit world.

google what? Spiritualism? I have, but it doesnt get a very good press to be honest.

A mediem is nothing like what you see in the films. He/she are if you like a bit like a radio, And tunes into the Spirit world and communicates between here and there. The Medium need not know anything about you if thats what you prefer. The thing is if you go to a medium don't exspect to have answers to questions you might have in mind. Listen to what your told, Make notes on paper if you wish, If your not sure of something you might ask the medium while your there or maybe after it's all done ask a friend or family member. Remember it's not the mediums job to decode or understand the message, thats for the person the message is for to do. Lastly go with an open mind and belive that in this world anything is possable.

I would be tempted, but I want to know the answers to some questions before I went, and I cant find those answers anywhere.

mine is very precise with names...usually surnames....and sometimes they do give you a "message" but not always x

Eldrick

Eldrick Report 3 May 2008 20:08

so do they say who it is or is it dead vague?

Like do they tell you 'I have your grandad Joe here?'
and then pass a message over?

mine doesn't use cards...just talks....and like stray says you never tell them anything...but you do have to go in with an open mind x

Eldrick

Eldrick Report 3 May 2008 20:05

tarot cards? I always thought that was a separate thing.

I sort of imagined them going into a trance and passing messages over fgrom the other side
