In your case, you are very highly rated on afterlifetv.com and I have little doubt that your abilities are genuine. I do believe in mediumship and am personally vested in promoting the "genuine" practitioners. I approach the field as a believer, but as a believer who realizes that most critics are *not* believers who have set a high bar of proof.<br /><br />I have personally experienced too many genuine communications from the dead--communications that left no doubt at all--that it's real. But how to write about mediumship to the skeptic? It's difficult.<br /><br />I think that I wrote this blog entry after an encounter with someone who I did not think was genuine, and who was trying to make some money (lots of money) from her ability, and it made me mad. I just got a negative vibe from her.<br /><br />For some reason, mediumship (like the UFO field) seems to attract some negative practitioners. I'm not sure why. It rankles me and gives the field as a whole a bad name.<br /><br />Recently I wrote about a medium who I thought was genuine. I was even tempted to get a reading from her. Money was not an issue. But I've always been afraid at what I may find out. So, in my case, it's not a question of belief, but of a recognition of how my life works. The spirit world has always found a way to let me know what I need to know to stay on my path and avoid danger. In one case about ten years ago, I had a vivid dream about being attacked and killed while walking downtown. A few days later, an elderly friend had a "premonition" of me being attacked in a way exactly as I had dreamed. Needless to say, I changed my walking habits. In this case, the spirit world directly intervened to save my life. I have never forgotten it.<br /><br />I think that you have much to contribute to the understanding of the afterlife.

But if I don't charge and even when I do people will take advantage -call you everyday-plague you with nonsensical questions and in general interfere with your peace of mind. I charge because then I am engaged in your problems, trials, healing, and development and not my own. I recently have encountered many charlatan healers ( second- hand through a client) and have been amazed by what people will try to sell(some from overseas; Africa and Russia) . Everyone does have the ability to be psychic , communicate with guides and passed loved ones but if you look around most people are more interested in checking their text messages, their FB page and their emails and don't take time to meditate and focus on their spirituality-that's what we do who work in the field. I prioritize and open myself to a different experience than most people and so when I do it for others I charge. But you're right about the egos involved in the New Age profession...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05715821268477958736noreply@blogger.com
