Being totally open and trusting
QUESTION: Masters, thank you for helping us on our earth journey! I have received many messages from spirit through others that I should continue to develop my mediumship. I experience short bursts as I interact with people daily and during my healing sessions. It seems, however, that there is some sort of blockage that is hindering me from moving into the fullness of it. Can you tell me what that is and how to work on it? I am truly grateful for your guidance. ~Sheila, US
ANSWER: Your problem is your own expectations and being somewhat invested in your idea of what being a medium means. There is no one way to communicate with spirits. It comes in different forms for everyone. You may have taken a class, but people can only instruct you in the manner in which things work for them. They are not in your body, or having your journey, so they can’t say exactly how things will work for you.
When you are going about your day-to-day activities, you have no pre-conceived ideas, so you are open to receiving messages from the other side. When you are engaging in healing sessions, your focus is on being the conduit for the energy from the universe, not on communication. You have found that as the energy flows through you, so do the words from the souls ready to have their say.
It is not necessary to know who is delivering the message unless it is for a particular person from a particular soul. If the missive is to share wisdom or direction, it doesn’t matter who the speaker is. If you have protected your channel and allow only energy of the light, then it is merely a matter of opening to the spoken word and feeling whether or not it resonates with the subject or subjects to whom it was addressed.
When you are concentrating on trying to get a message, you always ask yourself if the message that comes through is truly from the other side. Stop doubting! Start feeling the “rightness” of it.
To start to trust a little more, have a question in your mind when you clear all thoughts during a meditation. See what you “hear” as you meditate. Try doing the same thing as you get ready to go to bed at night. Don’t question or debate; just do it for a while until it becomes second nature.
You need to get comfortable with the dialogue. It’s just like any other conversation—except the other party is invisible.
