✨ IF MEDIUMS CAN COMMUNICATE WITH SPIRIT, WHY DO THEY VISIT OTHER MEDIUMS? ✨
It’s a question I’ve heard before, and it’s actually a very good one.
If a medium can connect with Spirit, why would they need someone else to give them a reading?
Surely they can just do it themselves?
Well… it’s not quite that simple.
When we’re reading for someone else, we can often approach the experience with a clearer, more neutral mind.
But when it comes to our own lives, things can become a little more complicated.
Our emotions get involved.
Our hopes, fears, memories and expectations can influence how we interpret what we’re sensing.
And when we’re hoping to connect with someone we’ve loved and lost, it can be especially difficult to separate what we want to hear from what we believe we’re receiving.
Sometimes we’re simply too close to the situation.
There’s also something quite lovely about being on the receiving end for a change.
Mediums spend so much time holding space for others, listening, interpreting and passing on what they experience.
But sometimes we need someone to hold that space for us.
Seeking a reading from another medium doesn’t mean we lack confidence in our own abilities.
It doesn’t mean our connection with Spirit is somehow weaker.
It simply means we recognise that we’re human too.
We have questions.
We experience grief.
We need reassurance, comfort and a fresh perspective, just like anyone else.
And sometimes, it’s nice to put aside the responsibility of being the medium and simply experience being the sitter.
Being able to give a reading doesn’t mean you never need to receive one. 💜
✨ I’d love to hear your thoughts. If you’re a medium, do you still seek readings from others? And if you’re not, is this something you’ve ever wondered about?
