I kept my screen pretty dark and didn’t interact, but others did. I was asked to ~bring~ a pen and pad, a pendulum (I used a necklace), a scrying surface (crystal ball, mirror, glass of water even), tissues (they were needed…), any protective items (sage, crystals, salt - just in case), and any items belonging to the person I wished to communicate with, and to make my space candle-lit, comfortable, and atmospheric.Īt precisely 2am (9pm EST), Dan and Kat appeared on screen and welcomed us. Some experience feelings and emotions from the spirits (clairsentient). Ideas and insights enter their head (claircognizant). Some mediums may just know certain things. Kat, for example, feels the spirits first (clairsentience), then she gets visuals (clairvoyance) and hears messages (clairaudience). Someone who can experience contact with spirits, mediating communication between spirits of the dead and living human beings. The séance is an opportunity to display that spirit contact is possible for everyone. Contemporary mediumship is much more about empowering people to explore their own talents. The days of mediums being viewed as all-powerful figures because they, and they alone, hold the keys to the other side, are fading. In order to hold a spiritually active séance, they employ a variety of communication techniques to draw the spirits in (most commonly a pendulum and automatic writing), to create the right atmosphere, and to raise the correct energy for a positive encounter with the spirit world.ĭan and Kat believe that a good séance requires definitive, positive contact with spirits and also that guests understand they are capable of experiencing spirit contact without them.
