Mediumship Development Circle

I started a Mediumship Development Circle in May of 2012, after an unsuccessful search for the “right” existing circle.  I wanted a circle that was all about mediumship; not tarot cards, remote viewing, or psychic development.  I wanted a circle as opposed to a class, so that we would be communicating with dead people, not being lectured by a live person.  I didn’t want a group that spent time on healing because I had already been a healer for over 20 years.  I kept up my quest for months before considered starting my own circle.  I was kind of new to mediumship, although I had lots of experience with healing, and wasn’t sure about the idea.  I asked Rita Berkowitz (excellent medium, teacher, and mentor) if she thought I would be crazy to start my own circle.  She told me, “Put it out there for likeminded people to come together and work for Spirit and it will manifest.  You Go Girl.  If it is not there for you then create it.”  I was thrilled with her reply.    

We went through a fair number of people in the first couple of months of circle before establishing a core group of dedicated sitters.  Five of us in circle now have been there from the beginning, 18 months ago.  We are joined by lovely new people who find us at just the right time, while others have drifted away.  We have created a very sacred space.  We meet every week at the same time and place, to build a relationship with spirit.  Mediums have been doing this for 100s of years.  We have made tremendous progress in our mediumship development and created something very special.

It is all about evidential mediumship.  We spend the evening giving and receiving messages to each other from loved ones in spirit, or “dead people”.  We give as much evidence as we can, or at least as much as is needed until someone clearly recognizes the person.  We use our intent to connect with recognizable spirits of the highest love and light, coming through with loving and healing messages for the highest good of the receiver.  We ask for hard validating evidence, including names, descriptions, memories and evidential messages.  There is seldom anything vague about our connections and we’ve communicated with many spirits.

We started inviting guest sitters to the first circle of each month about a year ago.  “Guest circle” is fun and exciting.  We usually have four people come, some with no experience with mediumship, for us to give messages to.  We ask our own loved ones to stay home that night so we can focus on our guests.  Most of them cooperate.  Future posts will detail some of our guest circle episodes, as well as interesting events in our regular circles.  I’ll be chatting about spirit guides too, and other cool topics.  I have lots of post ideas so I hope you’ll be joining frequently to read about the path of this particular medium.  Thanks!
