Hi, I hope I'm posting my intro in the right place.
My name is Sandy and I live on the South Coast of the UK. I have one Daughter and two Beautiful Grand-daughters, although I would say that because I am a little bit bias, lol.
I am a developing Medium and have just recently started a circle for development in my own home teaching beginners.
Although I have had many experiences since childhood, I have only actively been developing mediumship for two years. I am clairvoyant and clairsentient but not very clairaudient yet. Although I often feel Spirit working on my hearing so with luck that may come soon.
I'm going to enjoy looking around this community and hope to get to know many of you.

Hi Sandy, welcome again to the forum.. thats pretty neat that your teaching others medium work.. I often wondered about it myself, although never got into it much, but instead developed my psychic skills and astral projection.. I would like to hear more of your experiences..and I look forward to talking with you.. thanks again, Lilac

Hi Sandy! That's cool that your developing those abilities. I would be interested to hear more about the hearing spirits as you progress. That's called cairaudience right? I hear an interesting thing or two every now and then. Welcome to to the forum

Hi there Sandy ! I just saw a show about this guy( Doctor - scientist ) that is studying mediums. I have seen and spoke to Ghosts, One of them was always walking through me ;and burrrrr ,is that ever .cold"! . I have orbs around me all the time...and I am doing Out of body experiments. I used to have a circle group ....we meet up at our homes twice a month - but then only once, people just found (2) time a month too much ! { family and jobs & laundry ! } lol.... I miss that now that we don't meet-up anymore, topics seem to drift if you do not stay on track ! good luck with your group ! we sat in a circle and many times I knew what one of the girls was thinking, and I would say it before she would ! That gum-ball thinking got me in trouble one time as I spilled the beens about something !!! Oh well...! What is it like in the South Coast of the UK...? I can't understand how you survive without screens on your windows for mosquitoes .... or do you not have them ..? talk soon ! ;D ~SXY~

Thank you all for the great welcome.
Yes hearing spirit is called Clairaudience, although I can hear them, that sense of mine isn't as developed as the others. I found out a short while ago that I am a trance medium although I have not allowed myself to go into a full trance yet, but I will soon. I am only able to go into a trance when at my church circle because the energy is strong then, but I am often over shadowed by spirit when giving a reading which is good because it means that they come so close that it is easier to link with them. I still have a long way to go but I am hoping sometime in the future to be on the platform in the Spiritualist Churches.
I have been running a Development Messge board for over two years now and we have only just moved to proboards. I am finding proboards much better than our last system.
I have astral projected once by accident many years ago and found it an interesting experience although at the time it wasn't something I wanted to do again deliberately. But over the course of the last few years I have been starting to change my mind.
BTW, we don't have mosquitoes, lol. My house is being bombarded with ants at the moment, but not mozzies.

There are always so many questions, lol. I'm still asking many.
I have done readings on the web for members on my board during our Clairvoyant evenings that we have and I have also given a couple of private readings for our members. Although I am not the best medium on the site. We have a wonderful woman that's been a working medium for about 30 years who also teaches on the site.
I have done private readings at home for friends and friends of friends etc. LInking with Spirit is done through ones minds eye. Mediums can have different abilities, such as seeing, hearing or feeling. When I say feeling I mean spirit make you feel their own emotions and sometimes their pains. They give you the pain to usually show you how they died.
Trance mediumship is different in as much you allow the spirit to take over your body, your voice etc. There are different degrees of trance from light to a total control where the medium isn't aware of what is being said or done.
Over shadowing is where a spirit will come so close that you almost feel as if you are them. Sometimes the spirits face or hands can be seen super-imposed on the mediums face or hands. I have only truely tranced once but I have often been over shadowed, but mostly spirit will just come and show me themselves and pass their message to me to relay. I see spirit and I feel their emotions or their pains, but I don't hear them well so I work with symbols that they will show me.
For instance if someone name is Violet they might show me a basket of violets or if they died of a brain tumour they will give me a mild discomfort in my head where the tumour was. They show me things that the person having the reading will recognise.
Have a wander over to my site, you will find loads of answers there and you can also ask as many questions as you like and have more than just my answers.
Everyone has the ability to work with spirit it's just a matter of raising ones vibration to meet spirit halfway.

ahh,I see Sandy that is very cool, ya know the very first psychic I ever saw was an older woman, who lived in a apartment complex, this was when I was 19, well I went there to see what I should do about my life since I just graduated highschool, anyway, this woman had a huge window in front of her kitchen table, she would stare out of it and say "they keep showing me shoes" now I was surprised when I heard her say "they" because I wondered and still wondered what she saw...she went on to say"there is a man who will come into your life regardless and hes doing something with his feet," I didn't know what the heck she was talking about lol, but she said "they keep showing me a man" "and for some reason his shoes and feet stand out to me" anyway, I figured it out that about a year later I met someone, who was a musician, I realized she was talking about his feet and how he would use it to due time signatures in his music..ya know and the funny thing was he always wore tennis shoes..and he also had big feet, and the woman insisted that this man was coming into my life regardless and at the time I didn't know what to expect, but sure enough when I met him, I felt as I knew him right off the bat, in fact I felt a strong sence of affinity between us.. so perhaps she was being guided by spirits also, she knew many things that she could have not know, like where I lived, she drew a map of my house,...and told me when it was going to sell... anyway, I was very taken with it, so much that I wanted to do it, and thats when I began to read tarot.. and you say you can't hear them, hmm, well I will say that I hear many things, do you think its possible that Im getting messages from spirits when a certain song comes into my mind and its focused on a certain part of the lyrics ya know...its odd, it just comes out of nowhere and usually I analyze why it poped in my mind to began with... oh and I would love to hear an experience of yours with this, perhaps you can share an interesting reading that has happend to you..?? thanks Sandy, look forward to hearing more!

Me too Sandy ! look forward to hearing more! I was wondering what you do in your life to raise your Vibration.?
tarot cards sound interesting,..... Voices I did that and could not handle it ! ... I want to be Hypnotized to see in trance, if I too have other gifts...!
Have you done this ? I have never been Hypnotized

Yes, I have been hypnotised. But SXY, you don't need to be hypnotised to find out if you have a gift. Everyone can link with their higher selves and with spirit. It is part of who we are. We are not a body with a spirit, but we are a spirit with a body. This physical body is only a tiny part of who we truly are.
Meditation is the key to raising ones vibrations. It's very important to learn to ground, protect and open and close to spirit. It's important to learn how to work safely with spirit and it's also important to be in control at all times. Otherwise it would be like leaving your front door open for anyone to come in. Spirit should only be allow to visit when invited and you must learn how to stop them visiting or they would be forever pestering you.
Linking with spirit is a natural process of one's own Spiritual Development. But one doesn't have to accept messages and then pass them on. It is a choice.
Tarot cards are a tool to help your subconscious and/or your unconscious link to your sitters subconscious and/or unconscious. But sometimes during a Tarot reading spirit will come in.
I enjoyed reading your account of the chap with the feet Lilac because this is what I meant when I said spirit will show one something that only the sitter will understand. It's not important for the Medium to understand the message, it's just important that the Medium passes on exactly what she receives without trying to add her own interpretation.
And yes Spirit will pop something into one's head making it seem like ones own thoughts. I can remember the first time my mother visited me after she had passed over. She spent a whole day with me whilst I was at work. She kept giving me the urge to pick up the phone and call someone. As I reached for the phone each time I realised that there was no one that I wanted to call. It wasn't until I sat and thought about it, that my Mother was telling me that she was trying to communicate. The telephone being a form of communication. It was her way of letting me know that she was there and wanted me to try and link with her. It took a few more years before I decided to get my finger out and start learning to actively develop. When I did, my Mother was instantly there. She often visits but not as much as she did in the early days.
Spiritual Development isn't just about being a medium. It's about learning to understand the earths energies and the universal energy, about knowing who we are, where we came from, why we asked to be on this earths plane, how our guides support us and give us gentle nudges in the right direction of our life's choices, learning how to heal, and so much more.
Many people lean towards a certain area such as Healing, Writing Spirit words, teaching or proving existence after death by giving Spirit Messages. Working with and for Spirit is very rewarding.

yes I beleive this completely! in fact I say to myself alot "my body is in my soul"..I do this because it brings me in touch with my inner self more, and I do this just before sleep..
yeah, I agree with this as well, we must learn to shutt off our channels and turn them on, I am still having trouble with this, because I used to get axiety attacks and still do, they come out of nowhere, and Im assuming its connected with spirits or some form of energy that overly extends onto me.. also there are alot of people here who have contact with evil or negative spirits, I was wondering if you can help them? or what is your advice to them?
I think its neat you keep in contact with your mother..I was wondering does she ever contact you through your dreams and how often do you get messages through your dreams?? for some reason I have had many contacts with ghosts in dreams or people that have passed on..I was wondering what you think about that and If I may have using my awareness on a higher level and contacting these people..Ive had a few prophetic dreams as well. and they stunned me, because they were very differant than normal dreams, however I learned to aknowledge them, and now I know the differance between normal and prophetic.. also what would you suggest someone do for just starting out in working with spirits?

First of all anxiety attacks would not come from Spirit. Many years ago I suddenly started having panic attacks that seemed to come from no where and I couldn't think of a reason for them. They lasted 6 months or so and after giving myself some sound advice and learning relaxation techniques they have never returned.
As for people having contact with negative spirits many times it's only because of their fear that they believe this. But those that do have negative spirit around them, I would say it is because they are open to spirit at all times and are not protecting, closing and making firm rules.
Once we start acknowledging spirit exists we have in effect started opening to spirit and if people here are astral travelling without knowing the basic rules of safety then they are going to attract negative energies. Once you open to spirit you are in effect sending out a beacon to all spirit, they see your light and are attracted to it.
Negative energies being closer to the earths energy find it very easy to latch on to those open to spirit if they are not following the safety rules. I will add that they can't hurt you in anyway, but they can make you feel low or depressed as you are picking up their energy and making it your own.
As for dreaming, I very seldom dream or rather I am not aware of dreaming. I am however aware of spirit feeding me information some nights when I give them permission to do so. This information usually comes in the form of symbols which on waking I can never remember. But the information is stored ready for the day when I will need it.
My Mother only ever visited me once in a dream and that was shortly after she died and just before she started trying to contact me during the day. I haven't seen her now since February but I do know she is busy with her own development. Although if I sent a silent message out to her I'm sure she would come.
It's great that you can tell the difference between subconscious dreams and when you are visiting the spirit realms. Many people can't do this and tend to put every dream down to spirit visitation.
As for what would I suggest for those just starting out on their development. I would say join my site, lol. We have so much information because we are basically a teaching site.

hey Sandy, yeah I think honestly the anxiety turned out to be feeling of people's emotions around me, and taking them in all at once..because I knew it was nothing inside me if that makes sense.. yeah I joined your site, hopefully I can be there often, if not its because i have many jobs online lol, and I don't mean to not be there..just so you know, usually Im good about that stuff though..
thats interesting, what if you don't beleive in evil spirits? which I do not..in fact I think evil and good are man made creations, since we only know them due to someone teaching them to us.. but thats another topic lol perhaps that is why I hardly experience evil spirits or negative ones while I travel out of body..
so are you interested in learning your dreams more? and your inner worlds as well?
thanks! well I think that working with my dreams all these years and realy listening to my inner self has granted me access to many layers of consciousness..and where spirits reside as well..

If someone has been wicked and evil in life, just because they pass over doesn't change them. They are still the same people they were in this plane. They can of course continue to spiritually develop whilst in spirit and they can choose to reincarnate again. But in the spirit planes we live in the plane that is right for us. The lower the plane the lower vibration. As we develop in spirit our vibrations become higher and we move to a higher plane.
Because in spirit everything is done with thought, it maybe that you are not attracting lower spirit because your vibrations are high because your thoughts are not wandering to the negative. Fear attracts negativity. I must point out though that this is just my own thoughts on this. But also it is possible to have a negative spirit around us that we are not aware of. They wont always allow themselves to be felt because they like to stay close to the earth plane, and if they were found out one would try to get shot of them.
I have known several people that find the need to remember, know and analyse their dreams, but I have never felt the need. I will remember a dream if is relates to my life in order to help me work out any problems. And if spirit want me to remember what they have taught me during the night instead of burying it deep within me until needed then I will remember it.
Meditation to me is much more productive because it is a much clearer way of remembering that which is in ones subconscious or unconscious.

Thank you zandranna, ..... sometimes I must seem as if I have forgotten these facts...yet > I was more interested due to the idea of Edgar Casey ~ I would like the control of subconscious as he did... I want to find memories of forgotten thoughts I had once, and I guess I'm just looking for an easy way !lol... You are very right about meditation... it is the key to most of our answers....., I would like to know more about protection as I have herd little in my 20 years of OBE and never needed it myself...? I wonder is there a learned hidden knowledge of what to do or is it just affirmations and conscious control...? I have met evil entities but I felt empowered by my safety in god. I may need the backup one day and it is a good idea to use balance and protection in a routine..! What is it you say to protect your self ? ~SXY~

Hello all, It's ages since I have found my way here. I have been up all night unable to sleep so I thought a cup of tea and a little play on the comp might help me sleep when I go back to bed. So I am just wandering around a few sites that I have visited in the past.
I see you have had a complete change of image on here since I last wandered in. It looks great.
I hope you are all well. Sending love to all.
