What Is A Medium?
Everyone who feels to some extent the influence of spirits can be considered a medium.
This capacity is inherent to man and, as a consequence, is not an exclusive privilege; therefore, there are very few people who don’t have any psychic abilities at all. So, it’s safe to say that everyone, with few exceptions, is a medium.
However, in practice, this qualification describes a medium-capacity that is clearly characterized and manifests itself through obvious effects of a certain intensity, which then depends on a more or less sensitive organization.
In addition, it should be noted that this capacity does not manifest in all people the same way; mediums generally have a special aptitude for a certain kind of phenomena, making them as diverse as the manifestations they perceive.
The main types of mediums are:
- healer;
- clairvoyant;
- clairaudient;
- clairsentient;
- natural;
- physical.
Healer
This category of mediums includes people who mainly have the ability to heal by touch, by sight, even by a gesture, without the help of any medication.

Clairvoyant
Clairvoyant people are endowed with the ability to see the spirits.
There are some who have this capacity in a normal state, when they are completely awake, remembering every single detail; others only have it during a somnambulistic state or something that resembles one.
This capacity is rarely permanent; it is almost always the effect of a momentary and fleeting crisis. We can place all persons endowed with third eye vision in the category of seers.
There are also people who can communicate with spirits while dreaming, however, they are not, in fact, clairvoyants.
Note
The ability to see spirits may develop, but its development should occur naturally, without forcing anything, otherwise, we might risk becoming a puppet in the hands of our own imagination.
When an individual holds the right seed, the ability will manifest itself sooner or later, blooming beautifully within his being.
In other words, we should feel grateful for what God has given us without seeking the impossible; the moment we start chasing everything, in our desire to have too much, we risk losing everything we have.
Fact
In Jainism (an ancient Indian religion), clairvoyance is regarded as one of the 5 types of knowledge.
Clairaudient
These mediums hear the spirits’ voices. It is sometimes an inner voice that one hears; other times, it is a clear, distinct, outer voice, such as that of a living person.
Thus, clairaudients can start a conversation with the spirits.
When they have refined the ability to communicate with some spirits, they recognize them immediately by the sound of their voice.
Even if you are not endowed with this capacity, you can still come into contact with a spirit using a clairaudient medium as an intermediary.
This capacity is very pleasant when the medium hears only good spirits or at least the ones he calls.
Things are, however, quite different when an evil spirit contacts him and makes him hear the most unpleasant things all the time. In this situation, he must try to get rid of this spirit.

Clairsentient
This person feels the presence of spirits through a vague impression, a kind of light touch on all limbs that one can not explain.
This ability develops through habit and can acquire such great subtlety that the one who is endowed with it recognizes the impression he feels, not just the good or bad nature of the spirit but also his individuality.
Therefore, in relation to spirits, the clairsentient becomes truly sensitive.
Natural
Natural mediums are those whose influence is exercised without their will.
They are not at all conscious of their power, and often everything that happens abnormally around them does not feel extraordinary to them.
Physical
They are especially able to produce material phenomena, such as the movement of inert objects, noises, etc. They can be divided into facultative mediums and involuntary mediums.
