Spiritual gifts were given to humans by the Source of Light and Life, the universal Creator. All types of gifts combined (natural or spiritual), there are approximately a dozen.
A spiritual (or natural) gift can be “reclaimed” or corrupted by Darkness in order to serve its purposes. A spiritual (or natural) gift must always be purified (a specific action).
A medium can sometimes simply receive messages but not “see.”
Sometimes a medium can “see” but not “understand.”
There is a difference between “seeing in the mind” and “seeing in the physical world.”
Seeing or hearing in the physical world means experiencing visual or auditory hallucinations; the person has a mental illness (alcoholism, schizophrenia, substance abuse, etc.).
Professional Skills: A medium who wishes to practice:
Must have coaching or therapy skills. One cannot simply reveal sensitive information (usually due to grief or trauma) to someone (who is generally vulnerable) at any time. This can have disastrous consequences.
Must be tactful.
Must be discreet (and not leak information on TV shows, for example, to increase their notoriety).
Must respect the privacy of others (everything concerning a person’s life is private).
Personal Skills:
Must have undergone inner healing for their own traumas (everyone has them).
Must not be an alcoholic.
Must not smoke (cannabis, tobacco, etc.).
Must not be addicted to any substances (cocaine, heroin, etc.).
