As with any type of energy work, the person who is working with the energy must use white-lighting and other protections.

When we start out developing our mediumship, we have a tendency to question the information that we receive. A medium is able to tune into that right frequency, and is therefore able to receive communications fromthose in spirit. You're sensitive and receptive to feelings, emotions, and communications from others, and you've had experiences that you consider to be paranormal. The best thing about being a psychic phone operator and working for yourself is that you can work from anywhere! Let your eye travel from one object to the next, staying conscious of the initial feelings or impressions you get from each.

But if you are going to develop mediumship skills, you’ll need to learn more about human behaviour so that you can advise and guide vulnerable people professionally and so that you don’t project your own opinions and thoughts onto others which will cloud the integrity of the reading. The more skilled a medium is at interpreting these symbols, the more adept they are at delivering meaningfulmessages from Spirit.

NOTE: every medium is a psychic, not every psychic is a medium; we are not all mediums, unfortunately. This manifestation is when the spirit is making contact (despite sometimes being uninvited or even unintentionally) with the physical world.Read books by psychic mediums, and watch shows that feature them, to get a sense of the paths psychic mediums have taken. Like other occupations, you can go to a school and take classes to learn more about becoming a medium.
