Hello and welcome to Psychic Sundays with sisters Louise and Michelle. We are both full-time psychic mediums, healers and teachers. In these podcasts, we share our experiences, knowledge, and some wisdom from our guides with you. So grab a cup , sit back, put your feet up, and enjoy this podcast as we journey into the spiritual realms together. Hello. In today's podcast, we thought we'd talk about the difference between psychic and mediumship. Hello. And yes, we did. <laugh>. It's a really interesting subject. Um, a lot of people that ring up or want a reading or that we meet , um, often say, oh, you're a psychic. You're a psychic. And they say, well, no, actually I'm a medium. Um , all mediums are psychics, but not all psychics are medium. There really is a huge difference between the two. Isn't there, Lou ? There absolutely is. Yeah. You can still get messages and information working psychically as everything obviously is stored in the aura information past and present. But mediumship is when you connect to the world of spirit and you get a message from spirit to deliver to a loved one. Yep . So that is clear hearing, clear seeing, clear feeling, clear taste. Um, there's, there's lots of different ways that spirit images, they can work with you as well. So I just thought I would talk about the difference between being psychic and being a medium. So I will do the psychic bit and Lou's gonna do the mediumship bit and both jump about and in between and interrupt each other probably. Exactly. It just will be the beautiful flow of , um, how it will be. So psychic, being a psychic is where you are absolutely linked in to that person's energy, feeling that person's energy. So we have our seven AIC layers, and then we have our seven chakras. Each of them beautifully interlinking with each other, continuously passing this information around , um, letting go. Always trying to keep the body in balance. And as a psychic, you can go in and you can read the aura, read the information that's stored in the aura and in the chakras. It's like a filing cabinet, if you like. So if you can imagine opening up a filing cabinet and just going, right, okay, I'm just gonna go and see how you felt last week, or how you are feeling today, or, I'm feeling that you are feeling upset, you are feeling angry, you are feeling hurt, you are feeling down. And this is a big, big difference from mediumship and psychic. So that's how psychics work. We go into the aura, we go into the energy, and we feel that energy. And so many of us, let's just, for an example, you're going to buy a house or a car, or you meet somebody new for the first time and you instantly feel, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. I , I , I dunno what it is about that house. That's something funny in their house, or there's something funny about that person, or, oh , it just didn't feel right, it didn't feel comfortable, I just didn't like it. And that is psychic energy, psychic energy that you are all picking up on, that we all have, we all can do. And we're picking up and feeling that energy very, very much. And it feels uncomfortable for us. Or when we meet somebody, we just think, oh, no, first impressions. Right? Everybody says first impressions. Yeah , very true. Sometimes that's so wrong. It really is so wrong. It's just that that person is going through such a bad time at that moment that their energy, what they're giving off, it's not actually a true representation of who that person is and what it is that they're going through. That's a good point, Shelly. I think everyone should bear that in mind. Yes, definitely. So first , first impressions aren't always correct, are they? No, they're , no , they're really, really not. You know what I mean? I could have a migraine and have still keep my commitments, but not be feeling well. Absolutely. So I'm giving off pain. Yeah . And I'm giving off. I'm just not, not feeling that. Um, and, you know, people that are hurt, it's hard for them to give off that vibration of the heart chakra. Yeah. And giving off that beautiful energy of love, which we also pick up on. So again, when we fill this trust , this instinct, but don't just assume it it's bad or it's negative or it's, it's something to be fearful of or worried about. It's just the energy that is all around us. Um, so that really is , uh, psychic. Psychic is seeing the aura. Um , plants have have an ORIC field , crystals have AIC fields, trees, grass. There's so many things that we can see the energy as we are all energy and vibration vibrational energy. And it's this that we can all pick up on and fill and we can practice it. Yeah. I mean, each of you listening to this practice, it, if you can just sort of take yourself into a quieter head space and practice , um, how does that person feel? How do I feel they feel? Because I know it's not me that feels like that. So it's gotta be someone else I'm picking up on. And to be aware, if you are feeling sad or feeling down or feeling low, look at the people around you at the moment and just see, well, actually, am I picking up on them? And this isn't really, really with me. Yeah. It's a really good tip that Shelly. Yeah. Especially if you are thinking, well, I thought I was feeling all right today, and all of a sudden I'm feeling really rather sad and I just want to shout and scream. Um, so again, that's actually a really nice way to connect in with your psychic gifts and other people's energy. And also then to sort of go into healing mode if you like. Even if you're not healers, even if you're not mediums or psychics, we do all feel energy, like Michelle said, we are all energy. We feel energy, we work with energy. So if you do suddenly feel that you are not quite right and outta sorts, and you have come to the understanding, it's perhaps the people around you, it's a great opportunity to ask them, how are you feeling? You okay? Absolutely. Absolutely. And there's a lovely chap I'm seeing at the moment who's just started his spiritual journey , um, and he's coming and sitting in circle and , and learning and, and it's , it's wonderful to see everybody opening up and and unfolding. And he's just said the same thing. It's so funny. He said, I find myself going for a walk with somebody at work because I just know they're really down and really low and I can just feel it. And words, words of , of vital, vital, vital of , of , of healing. And, and I mean, you know, we are all healers. Um, maybe we don't have the qualifications, but words are healing. Absolutely. And even that has an energy and that also has a psychic energy. If somebody's had a huge argument and that energy's been left in the room, guess what? You're gonna feel it. Mm . You know, guess what? You feel someone that's down, guess what? You feel someone that's angry. We all know when our children are feeling low or down or we just see them walking. I remember seeing Daniel walking out of school and just going, something's wrong. Something's wrong, something's wrong. What's happened? You know, you can , you can see it, can't you? It's more than mother intuition, isn't it? Exactly. Absolutely. It's just that knowingness. So psychic is that psychic. It's more grounded. It's more on this earth plane. It's more , um, within the fields of us, ourselves is exactly what it is. Our seven ORIC fields , um, stores , um, a huge amount of information as does our seven chakra system, which at one podcast, I'm sure will go into all of that in more depth. And I think it's really interesting 'cause I think nearly everybody without exception would be able to say, oh , just like you say, room doesn't feel right. Don't get a nice vibe of fat person. Even those that are in complete denial about the existence of the spirit world. And they think it's all nonsense and they don't want to have anything to do with it, but they will still admit that they have a vibe of somebody or they pick up energy. So it's really interesting that whether we like it or not, we're all psychic. Yeah . Ab we can all do it. Yeah . Yeah . Absolutely. But also it's nice hearing children. I've had a lot of 20 year olds saying, oh, I like your vibe. Yeah. I feel your vibe. Loving your vibes, man. Just a word, <laugh> . You know , it , it is , well , it's more than a word. It's is I'm reading your energy. It's , it's , I'm picking up on your energy. I'm totally feeling you. And, and it feels good. You feel good. I feel good. Yeah, absolutely. You make me feel good. You make me feel picked up. You're you're making me feel , um, in a good place. You know? So that's, that's psychic , uh, psychic energy really. And that , that's what a psychic is. So when you go to have your psychic reading and someone says to you, I'm not a medium, I'm a psychic. They will work with cards, crystals, there's all kinds of different tools, which is another podcast within itself there, isn't it ? Mm-hmm <affirmative> . Crystal Balls, <laugh>. Um, and so they're reading you, that's where they're getting their information from. And they may well be fed by their guides as well and be given information from spiritual world. But that's where we're just starting to cross over into mediumship. So I'm gonna, Louise is going to , uh, yeah. So your guides will still come close and help you with psychic work because you will be tuned in and you will be working in that environment and with that mindset. And it's always about the intention that we set out when we start to give a reading, give healing, or just generally work in this way in our spiritual world. So mediumship does take up, we kind of step up a level. We raise our vibration to the world of spirit, and they bring their vibration down so that we are able to meet in the middle. And that's one of the reasons we are called a medium. We are between those in the world of spirit and those who are still on the earth plane . And we are that telephone line, that communication in the middle that's bringing the information and passing it on in a way that the recipient hopefully can understand if only were that easy all of the time. <laugh>. Absolutely. So mediumship is very much that beautiful connection with the world of spirit. And we work really closely with our guides. Now, there are a lot of people who are very natural mediums, children who are born with the gift and they don't really need to understand it. Some of them need to reign it in. Some of them come to us and say, I've always had this gift, but it's a little bit out of control and I dunno how to turn it off, and I dunno how to turn it on when it's appropriate. So apart from that, me natural mediums just have this wonderful ability to see spirit, to hear spirit. Mm-hmm . To feel spirit, to have that energy within them, and to pass that beautiful feeling on, in an , in a way that helps , uh, those who are in need. So mediumship can come forward in many ways. Um, but usually it's in the form of a reading. Um, you can bring mediumship through in a trance state as well. They're still called trance mediums. It's really anything that connects with the world of spirit to bring forward philosophy, guidance, and healing. And it's an absolutely beautiful energy to work with and to , um, experience as well. Yeah , it is. And and it's the difference of, of , um, for me, it's like shop open, shop closed. Um, that's how I have to see it is okay. Um, I sit down, I meditate and I open myself up to the wild of spirit. I invite them in. However I may do that. Um, normally it's just sitting, looking at a , a candle and emptying my brain and just kind of lifting up the veil or the bridge between the two worlds. But it's also where we split our brain as well, where we go from the beta , which is where our brain is in our everyday life, working, talking, teaching, whatever it might be, and slowing our brain down into the alpha mode, which is where spirit can come in. Um, creating that void, slowing our brain down slightly, getting the right vibration, allowing spirit guides, loved ones to come and connect with us. Enabling that communication to flow beautifully. So it's a totally different connection, isn't it? It is . And sometimes, of course, when you are working, it may, may be , sometimes you lose the link with spirit. It stops for some reason. The energy drops very suddenly in a room. Or you are coming up against problems with the person you are reading for. And that's when it's really useful to be able to switch into psychic, to start picking up on the energy, how they're feeling. It kind of lifts the mood, it lifts them. It, it helps get the reading back on track and then spirit can step in again. And we've got that beautiful link. It might be that it's a crossover when there's another person wanting to come and yeah . Make their presence known. But that doesn't usually have happen for me anyhow. I get they were piling in like a bus. It's quite frustrating. I sometimes I have stick families up . I too , right . You stand signs on the left, you stand there, you shut up. No left <laugh> upside on the right. And um, it's, it's normally, I , I find that , um, it's normally the stronger character actually that steps forward. That's true. First . And the person that whoever we are reading for , um, can take the message from this particular person so the right person will step forward for whoever is in need or whoever has come for the reading, to be able to accept and hear the message from that person. If someone needs laugh and joy, then somebody that's funny will come through. If somebody needs to hear something profound, then somebody who they would be able to take , um, from being on the earth plane to being in the spirit plane as , um, profound , um, statements, clarification , um, and evidence for whether they're going on the right pathway or whatever it is that they, they actually need to know. So it's, it's just a phenomenal , uh, job is , I mean, I love, it's, I love it. It's not a job . It's just, I can't even, what I , I couldn't do anything else because um, there is no choice, no <laugh>. But also having that wonderful connection with your spirit guides is also really important when you are developing as a medium and working with them, asking them to bring forward the energy, asking them to bring forward a connection to the spirit world to help with that. Um, 'cause sometimes that is needed just to boost the energy, keep that lovely connection going and working with your guides also. Uh , they will help and guide you. I mean, you can get shown really random things, can't you, in messages ? Well, they are to us, but to the , to the receiver. Yeah. But also guides will work with you in a certain way. And for example, if I get shown a pair of glasses, it might mean something to me. And then Michelle might get shown glasses by her guides and it's a completely different meaning. Mm . So it's just letting your guides teach you, letting your guides know, well , I'm gonna show you this and that will mean that. And once you've mastered that, it's actually makes life . Yeah. Symbols, words, feelings, sensations. Yeah . It's really funny how they get your attention as well. Sometimes it can be quite embarrassing, <laugh> , the things they give you to say and you think, oh , you're joking me. I often find, right. Is it okay for me to talk frankly with you, <laugh> , because what I'm getting here is really, and , and , and quite often I , I would say , um, so could you understand that this person might , uh, use uh , foul language , um, in world of spirit? Um, oh yes, definitely. Oh yeah. That's definitely my aunt, aunt Vera. That's her coming through. That's her to a t Oh , they push a button sometimes, don't they? Yeah . I think they enjoy seeing you becoming uncomfortable sometimes. <laugh> . But, but , but with that it's trust, trust, trust and trust. Trust your spirit guides, trust yourself. Trust what you're receiving and trust what you are being given. Um, I was doing some healing on a lovely young chap , um, a couple of days ago. And , um, bless his heart, he had a visit in his meditation whilst his healing , um, from his great-grandmother. And he could not believe what had happened to him. He was in tears of joy , um, the experience , um, the validation. And he just got words that he needed to push him further on in his life. And that's it is , is him trusting that and that that's what it is, isn't it? Lou is absolutely, is trust what you're getting , um, and to deliver it and not allow yourself, your ego, anything to get in the way. Because we're mediums, we're communicators, we're communicators for spirit, and we're just doing a job passing on the messages. And sometimes it's quite challenging, especially if people can't take what you are giving them immediately. And it sort of brings your energy down. It brings their energy down. But it is, like Michelle says, you've just got to trust and keep on and keep on. 'cause you'll very often get people contacting you either the same day or in a few even weeks. I've had months someone came up to me a message that she just couldn't take it. I gave her this message. It didn't quite come . It was about being accepted onto , um, uh, a university course. Oh, okay. And Spirit showed me that she was on this course and it was going to happen. And she was going to be able to fulfill her ambition and, and ultimately the career that she wanted. And a few days after I'd given her this reading , um, she announced on Facebook. She hadn't been accepted by the university. And I was absolutely devastated. I was so confident that , that I'd given what I was given mm-hmm <affirmative> . Anyhow, I saw her a few months later and she came up to me and said, oh, I got onto the course and I'm so grateful and thank you. Everything you said was correct. What had happened is somebody had dropped out. Oh, wow. And the space became available and they then offered her a place. Amazing. So it wasn't I media , so again, it was, oh , thank you so much, spirit. I just needed to trust, trust, trust. Yeah . And , and it , it can be difficult. Yeah . It really is quite challenging sometimes. But you have to keep going. You do have to keep going. And so that, that really is the , the huge difference between , uh, psychic. Yeah . And mediumship. Being a medium is different to being a psychic. Being a medium is more of a process of sitting down, linking in, linking in with your guides , um, waiting for that flow to come in and , and just being in the , the intention of being Right. The shop's open. <laugh>. Yeah. I mean psychic, because you're reading their energy. They're there, they're such in front of you. You can give a psychic reading anywhere, anytime . Yeah . But mediumship, you have to really hope spirit are gonna turn up. You never know. You stand there, you open your mouth and you think, right , come on, let's talk. And, and it's quite challenging every time, isn't it? Well, yeah. But it's, it's, it's, that's more about us as well, isn't it? Absolute . That's more about our trust. Absolutely. But it's the difference in, we can do a psychic reading. 'cause you are sat in front of me and I can read your energy, but a medium ship reading, hope your parents are coming through or your loved ones, that's like doing platform mediumship, isn't it? When we're up there and , and we say to people, there's no rehearsing this, there's , there's no lines, there's nothing we can read. There's no research. It is blind faith. You stand up and you see all these sea of faces in front of you, <laugh> hoping, and you just think, okay, I've got nothing, got nothing, got nothing, got nothing. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. And then the minute you start talking and it comes Yeah . Never let you down. Absolutely. Um , so that really is the difference, that vibrational difference, that difference of going into a different mindset, a different place. The brain going into a different place to connect , uh, with mediumship and that beautiful feeling because you go into a slightly altered state as well when you give Yes . A reading. Yeah . And obviously the more experienced you are and the more you've been doing it, it's easier and much quicker to just slip into that beautiful altered state. So there is a difference in feeling and energy around you when you're giving a reading. Um, that is a huge influence as well. And it's really beautiful. It's lovely. And then you come out of it and literally within seconds, you can't remember what you've said, can you? No, you can't. You can't. You really can't. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. But majority of the time, if it's quite a profound reading, it's, it's, you know, I was taught by somebody , uh, somebody said to me, taught me, said to me , um, you do each reading as if it's a first. Yeah. Each reading, you know ? Absolutely. The last one you did, you let go of . Yeah . Otherwise it's just too much, isn't it really? Yeah, absolutely. So each reading , um, is brand new. Um, no, no , no judgment, no expectations, nothing. You just allow , um, spirit to come through and connect and it is wonderful. Yeah. I mean, I've even had experiences when we sit down and it's usually the same pattern . Hi , have you had a reading before? Yeah, of course. And people say Yeah. Oh, okay with you. Oh , I'm really sorry. I'm so, so sorry. It's just so embarrassing. Yeah . Yeah . So I think that's maybe my memory and that's so funny and menopausal, but also it's because literally you come in and, and that really is again, proof I think that spirit is so close and that they're giving you the information. Exactly. You are literally a channel passing on the words and then they're gone. Yeah . And that's it. Exactly. Exactly. I quite often when I do my spiel , um, spirit are going , just get on with it. Will you <laugh> Michelle just be quiet or they call me Miss medium <laugh> , miss medium <laugh> . Yeah. Just keep quiet. Will you? And, and just, just , you know, we're waiting. Just shut up. And I quite often say to my clients, okay, I'm actually being told to be quiet now, so , um, let's just crack on, shall we? And off we go. So , um, we're hoping that that's given some clarity Yeah . To the difference between psychic and medium. Yeah. Um , so yeah, if that's helped, we hope that has. Yeah . And we'll go into more and more into this when we absolutely do our online course. Absolutely. So that's , um, wonderful. It's been absolutely our pleasure.
