Mediumship is natural in all of us.

[gareth]

When I was a child I used to lie in bed, in the dark, fearful... no more than than, petrified, seating so much my bed was saturated. So frightened that I could not move for fear that the 'things' in my room would get me. And if I should decide to make a run for it I had to pass other 'things' that might hurt me too.
Now this always resulted in wetting the bed which for most children under 6 is normal. The difference here was I used to cry out for my mum and dad to help me and when they finally got to me they would ask why I didnt go to the toilet instead of wetting the bed? I would always reply "but theres people on the landing". This was always met with the same response... "it must have been a bad dream" or "but you do have a very powerful imagination". The more they told me this the better I felt and the less concentrated the scary experiences became. So I stopped wetting the bed, conquered my fear of the dark and eventually taught myself how to shut out these very real but apparently imaginative thoughts. Time went by, I grew up, left school, got a job, worked for hard, got a place of my own, met a girl, settled down and then something happened. This was 2 years ago, I was out drinking with a mate when after several pints we decided to go home. I shared part of the journey with him but when we came to the point of splitting up we stood on the road and began to chat. I can remember telling him that I kept seeing our friend 'Chris' who died in a motor bike accident several years prior. I could see him as a mental picture in my mind and it was as clear as a photograph. My friend said that was coincidental since he had been waking up in the morning from a dream where he was actually speaking with Chris. Now at this point I knew what chris looked like and knew thing about him although didnt know him that well. My friend, lets call him Mike to make it easier, he was best friends with Chris when he was alive but never spoke about him. I was intrigued to know if we was actually experiencing some kind of weird paranormal link. I was drunk at the time so this is to be expected ;-)

I asked the image of Chris in my head to reveal something about Mike that I could not possibly know about. The image then 'told' me (its like a mental voice rather than a physical sound) so things that only Mike could know. Then the information started to flow more and more like a water fall that had been dried up for decades. I managed to provide loads of this information then started seeing an elderly woman who gave me her name, the date she passed, characteristics of her personality and images of how she looked, I knew it was his grandmother. Then his grandfather came through and did the same. He was in tears and i was in shock. Mike is not a close mate and I have never seen pictures or discussed his family before. I felt like lair because I dont know how i knew and couldn't rationalize this. The next evening I was getting ready to leave home with my girlfriend when i noticed I was getting images of people in my head again. This time her grandmother and grandfather came though, both providing information I was not aware of. The next day I was exhausted and broke down emotionally. My girlfriend made me call the spiritualist church and I was told that this was common and they tended to get about 2 people a month complain of the same thing. I was told to call a chap who lived not too far away, a medium. I visited him and he explained that I was a medium but nothing special, just that i am more aware of spirits than the average persons. Since then I have been to 2 circles and stood on platform. I left both circles because I felt that most of the people there are only doing development for their own end i.e. ego based. I couldn't be bothered with all of that and for the past 7 months or so just been providing readings for friends and family. I dont charge and think it bad that people are exploited by those who can or just say they can connect with spirit.

A few weeks a ago I was having a bit of a difficult time trying to work out how I can use this ability for the greater good. I was quite angry and frustrated and went onto google to find some info. It was a nightmare since if you type mediumship into google you get 1000's of pychic pay sites. I asked my guides for some keywords and typed them into google. About 5 links down from the top was the spiritual crisis network, a group of volunteers that help people who are experiencing a spiritual awakening. I decided to attend to which I am very humble having met these incredible people. Im not going to go into great detail about it, dont want to bore you, but it seems that even those who do not entertain spiritual beliefs are equally perceptive to spiritual experiences and trauma. This is a very real thing thats happening and more and more of us are awakening. I believe its a natural process but can also be provoked. For example, as David Icke mentioned, the halucinogen Iawoska does provoke spiritual experiences (i heard this from someone else too). There is also a technique called kundalini awakening whereby the energy is provoke thought he chakras. Dont quote me on this but have spoken to people who have experienced it and its meant to be like ecstasy.

Unknown to most psychiatrists the DSM IV has now acknowledged spiritual experiences and has mapped out method of treating people who are suffering trauma because of it.

My bottom line is, we are all capable of opening up but we must not allow others to tell us otherwise.

Facinating first post gareth. I have had alot of experience with visions and stuff in the past. I can't believe that medium told you you weren't special though. He probably didn't want you to steal his thunder as he probably wasn't too good at it himself and as you say most of them seem to have big egos. The ones that charge are usually con artists and cold readers. Sounds like you are doing really well with it. Good luck.

I had a ''medium'' come to my house once after having experienced a few paranormal happenings, and as I was telling him of my past experiences, he told me I had been reading too many books,:mad: the twat. So he was obviously shit at his job:rolleyes: I had to explain to him that the reason i had the books is because of the stuff that had happened in the past, I then told him to clear off.;)

[infinitetruth]

Welcome to the forum gareth. Thats a facinating post. Particularly because you mention pictures of people like photographs. I get this a lot. Pictures of people so real that you know they must be - although I don't know who they are and I find it difficult to talk about it because...well...sometimes they are severely hurt.

I have been told I have some psychic qualities but to be honest I have no idea what to do about the pictures. Sometimes I see a whole persons life from birth to death in succession in snapshot like photos.

Thanks for your post it has really made me think.

[gareth]

Just wanted to thank your kind responses.

Neila, you are very kind to suggest that the you think being a medium is special. I sincerely do not take credit for this ability but feel humble that I am able to help others mend their pain. I do not see myself as anything special because of this however humanity makes us all special. Mediumship is natural, just most of us do not know we are using it.

infinitetruth, thanks also for your comments. No medium is alike and we all work differently. This is the reason why I am not keen on societies such as the SNU training people up and giving them certificates. There seems to be a lot of this ridiculousness occuring and seems to attract those seeking financial or ego based gain. What you have is truly wonderful and is different to how i receive information. You see, its not just that we can pick up 'signals' so to speak but its our capacity to recognize and process this information that makes the difference. You seem to be able to tap into the whole life history of someone which is something I have never experienced or come across. Nonetheless, your abilities can be put to great use! Do you have direct contact with your guides (or angels), higher self?

Further to my own experiences, I not only experience visual images (internal) and 'sound' (internal) but feel vibrations around my ears, face and head and also 'know things' and sometimes feel entities touching me. I sincerely believe we can all do this and its only our belief systems that is stopping us from connecting.

[synergy777]

i think its when you just flow, let whatever come to you, listen to it, gut instinct, vibes. you can't sit and focus it, will it, it just happens without you knowing about it, you only realise whats happened afterwards. after this i just have a cheeky smile, lol

gareth,

Hi and welcome. :)

Your childhood story was something I could relate to because I could see the unseen when young too. Gwad childhood was a hard scary time!

"...it's like a mental voice rather than a physical sound..." Yes and it's called telepathy!

"....internal visual images..." Yes again and it's called clarivoyance.

".....internal sound..." Yes again and it's called clariaudient.

I've learned over the decades that these finer faster abilites are as you said, "natural", and many people have been and will continue to be activated into larger aspects of themselves like what you've so accurately described. I've personally learned that having these abilities (in the beginning periods) is about us and our personal spiritual learnings and growth etc etc even more often times than it is about the people we may help or give council to etc etc. ;) Pay attention to all of it....whatever 'it' is that you experience OK? There's many lessons and clues in them all that are for you the 'seer'.

It's always bothered me how many people feel the need to sort of apologize for having these "natural" abilites. Don't ever apologize for evolving! Also know that when we learn what we need to from these abilities, they will morp or evolve into higher new ones so expect change along the way with all of this. Just go with the flow and stay grounded while you play way out there in the other realms learning wonderful new things. ;)

i once had a whole run of pets. Cats and dogs, I knew they had been loved and died and missed by their owners. I have put it to the back of my mind for long time. I have been approached by the spiritual church for training but it didn't feel right, I felt like it was the wrong path for me so I never went. Sometimes I have inner sound (clairaudience) - but its normally music brought on by machinery - its really weird but I can here songs in car engines or noisy machines LOL (u must think Im crazy now haha) - I also get smells of flowers sometimes or perfume. But thats it really, the pictures are the most awesome for me. But I have no idea how to use or practice with them, nor do I have any idea how to contact guides.

Thanks for pointing out the technical terms ;-)

You mention about not appologising for having such abilities. You are right but like the vast majority of sensitive people we share common traits. These being,

highly sensitive to others and our environment
Low self esteem
Difficulties during childhood
Self doubt due to being written off as weird etc


I'm generalizing here but these 'negative' traits are more common of the natural medium. That's my take on this, having met a few 'naturals' on the way ;-)

The positive aspects are that you know when your lover is cheating on you, heh... just kidding but you catch my drift.

Here's a question. I have been attending a spiritual emergence group in london. These people have experienced a Kunderlini awakening, has anyone here experienced this?

[lapis]

gareth,

I just wanted to use your great description of telepathy with the "name" only because so many people expect these abilities to be different than they are.

Boy you are 100% right about those common traits. I don't know how old you are but I'm middle aged :confused: and this business greatly improves with age. I don't care what small minds and big egos think any longer. And, with all the positive planetary consciousness changes happening constantly now, these "traits" are fast becoming "normal" for more and more people. If most everything went to shitsville tomorrow, guess how handy these abilities will be?! ;););)

I've experienced repeated kundalini risings since 1998 when I began the hard-core physical aspect of the ascension process. The worst of the ascension symptoms are like some insane combination of menopause (for males too), kundalini risings, and what I'd guess NDE's to feel like, and massive Heart chakra openings. After most of this, you just live from your Heart and not your head anymore. You literally are a different being and that's the whole point. ;)

Over the years I've heard some other people of different ages and both sexes, all having this same sudden kundalini blasts repeatedly over the months and years. I believe that it's a natural, although really intense and difficult, aspect of our ongoing ascension process. It's a period however where functioning in public is pretty much out of the question!

lol indeed,..

tho if i may to add to your post,..

sense of 'self' is also greatly altered at this point too, and must be carefully addressed

Lapis, you are right to point out the specific name for these experiences as I agree, it helps other people understand what this is.

The traits I mentioned are typical of the 'true' mediums I have met. They tend to be shy although some are the absolute opposite like myself. They also tend to read into things and tend to be more emotionally imbalanced. Most of this is due to growing up in an environment that is not capable of understanding or acknowledging what sensitives are going through. It affects us and makes us a bit quirky. Nonetheless, I can hide these traits pretty well behind a 'no nonsese' mask. I suppose we all do this especially when at work or fighting to get to work ;-)

Anyway this whole kunderlini thing, (in lay mans terms its a spiritual awakening for those who do not know this) I have a theory on why its becoming more common. The planet goes through cycles, you wont learn much about it in schools especially in the US and EU as its discouraged. What I'm refering to is the arrival of the planet Pluto in November 2007 (dont quote me on this). Now you've heard about the age of aqaurius and the whole new age nonsense, i think it all kicked off in the 60's. Anyway, we're not refering to that,this is something new and has some connection with the mayan calendar. Basically, pluto is meant to come into alignment with earth from nov 07 - dec 2012. During this time there is meant to be a period of change in humanity. This change is unknown but I think it may refer to consciousness i.e. a change in our perception. I'm a firm believer we are all connected since:


universal consciousness can be tapped into
Sensitive people (this include psychics) can read other people and places


Now putting aside the new age crew with their reki and other energy works you are getting Doctors, atheists, school teachers, Muslims, Christians and whole array of unlikely people seeking help with symptoms of kunderlini awakenings. I won't provide specifics but this is very real as I have met these people and I have no reason to doubt them. Lets face it, no professional is going to put their job at risk by openly admitting this so that why they seek help through support groups. These are the people who go to a psychiatrist and end up in the mental health system. Only now, in the US has these symptoms been recognised under DSM-IV. Ok, so back to this Pluto thing, there's a guy called Tsarion, he's on google video and mentions about Pluto coming into alignment with the earth and having profound affect on us humans (and about time). He suggests we will wake up (spiritually) and become more ethical. He also suggests that after Dec 2012 we should be ready for a new age (a golden age) of world harmony. Now I could deeper into this but I won't do this any justice so please have a look on google video if this interests you; search for "Tsarion 2012". I'm had a massive awakening 2 years ago but wouldn't describe it as kunderlini. It was just I had never realised I was communicating with other realms of consciousness until that point. I had some difficult times after that but it seems to be settling down now. I am sure I have been goign through a more gradual awakening and think this may happen to the majority of the human race leading up to 2012. Now if this doesn't happen then so be it, its just a theory that fits into my current mindset.

I can relate to menopause like reactions being similar to spiritual awakening symptoms. Be male or female this is a completely different phenomenon and yet it is effectively a change of ones direction of consciousness.

gareth,


"Quirky" :D yep that we are! ;)

There's so many things you mentioned in your post that I'd like to comment on. One is that I've been an Astrologer for about 30 years now. I've also been studying Galactic or larger cosmic astrological cycles, along with the Mayan calendar as an indicator of our evolution through numerous phases. All the same stuff basically.

Now I don't know the man Tsarion but I'll see what I can find about him and this Pluto thing you've mentioned. I've heard nothing about what you mentioned but....Pluto has been a huge influence on humanity especially in 2006 through now. Pluto has been slowly conjuncting (aligning with from our perspective on Earth) the GC (galactic center - which is from our perspective, 27 degrees Sagittarius now). There are 3 phases of this one transit (Pluto moving) of Pluto aligning with the GC, the center of the Milky Way galaxy. The first conjunction was in 2006, the 2nd retrograde one just happened on July 17, 2007, and the final direct conjunction will happen on Oct. 28, 2007. This has been an ongoing influence on humanity in a big way for a while now.

In a nutshell it's had to do with humanity purging the past Piscean Age (2,100 + years) global religious distortions and negativity. The collective Dark side of world religions has been in alignment with the GC during 2006-2007 and much has already been transmuted and released. Big changes are coming in Jan. 2008 when Pluto leaves Sagittarius and enters the sign of Capricorn (until 2024) and the focus shifts to a different theme. That's another thread however!

I was a teenager in the 1960s and there were certain outer planets in hard aspects with other outer planets back then that triggered all that got started then. Today, those same planets have orbited around and reached the same aspects with each other (but on the up swing so to speak) and we're going through similar energies like in the 60s but at a higher level now. Cycles within cycles within more larger cycles.

I've been reading a new book by Barbara Hand Clow, The Mayan Code which I highly recommend. I've wanted to know the deeper esoteric levles in the Mayan calendar and this book goes there and much more. The calendar evidently shows the numerous cycles and sub-cycles of our evolution within physicality and time. It also shows the compression or speeding up of 'time' now through 2011 and this is directly related to mass numbers of humanity all getting triggered or activated energetically which is what we've been talking about with these symptoms and abilities.

So it is all related and really talking about the same things. The activation (ascension) of increasingly larger numbers of humanity each few weeks or months now and the astrological movments of the planets reflect these changes as does the Mayan calendar. The rapid psychic, empathic, telepathic, expanded knowingness, kundalini risings, and so so much more, are some of the manifestations of all this.

My current sig line is from Clow's Mayan Code book. She was talking about how the elite have controlled the planet/humanity for many Ages now and yet, higher cosmic actions have been activated to override this total lockdown they've had over humanity. We're living this now and our different energetic and consciousness activations reflect it also.

"When a desired evolutionary end is threatened, control over evolution is activated."

Thanks for the clarification, this just another example of synchronisity in action as I have been looking into this area for some time. I was reading up on the picean age yesterday as a matter of fact. So I'm taking on board what you are telling me.

Yes, the global elite have exposed themselves through their arrogance and it has done then considerable harm. It was only last month that during the jeff rense program that Ben Fulford made it quite clear to the illuminati (this includes names such as Rockerfellers and Rothchild) that any action made towards population control would be met with deadly force from the top down snatching out the eye (He's referring to the eye at the top of the pyramid for benefit of other readers of this post). I don't know how true this is but its all over the internet and why would you be mad enough to lie about this? http://www.rense.com/general77/chinsec.htm

Anyway, I back up your statement and look forward to a changing world as by god we need a change from this madness!

[jjeanjeane]

Kundalini activation is the one for sure! Opens up a new world... Love it... Regards jj
