I've always wondered if like a caveman ancestor could be contacted by medium? I mean there's zillions of my ancestors who have died before I was even born. Could a medium contact one of them? Is there some kind of soul yellow pages they can use?

I did, once. It was intense, albeit brief. She said things (within) seconds of meeting me that a dark cloud was lingering around me, a deep sadness. She actually asked me, "Do you feel the darkness around you?" She brought up my dad and said I needed to let go of that relationship. All things made sense.
Yes years ago I saw LI medium at someone's house way before she had a tv show. She told me very specific things and described my father who she was connecting to b I'd love to go again, but it's too hard to get an appointment. I'd like to find someone else that's available.
I've been to Lily Dale, New York when I was a working journalist. Also, a Mexican faith healer on the south side of Chicago, at my BFF's mom's urging. (She thought I was cursed. According to my friend's translation of the faith healer, I was not.)
I also had a close friend in my 20s whose parents were spiritualists.Â
I worked in Lily Dale as a summer job while in college. Definitely an interesting place.
At the risk of getting laughed out of here, I have some sort of....I don't even know the word for it. I connect to energy sometimes.
I knew that *something* was going to happen the day of the big tsunami. I felt like the energy around me was just heavy with terror and fear. It's hard to understand. When it happens, it almost feels like I'm walking through water and the water is energy. There was also a very specific time when lots was going on in the world. A Gaza conflict, floods in China and something else and it just felt like the world was on fire. I could physically feel a heaviness around me.
I told my husband that David Bowie was about to die the day before he did. I had absolutely no reason to think that. I can't tell you the last time I thought of him. It wasn't like I was reading Iman's twitter or something. My MIL reads tarot so my husband is used to me doing this.
Now I'm about to completely lose you all. I'm telling you my life story to get the Friday afternoon to pass. There's a ghost in my house. I see her a few times a month. She hangs out in the same area of the house. She's not scary, she's just there. I used to try and write it off as just weirdness out of the corner of my eye but it's not. It's just our ghost friend.
I wish I could somehow apply this to MY life. But yes, I totally believe in both mediums and psychics.
I thought about going to one after my brother died, but I never pulled the trigger. Oddly enough, a friend of my deceased brother's went to a medium about a year ago or so. She was actually going with her cousin, whose mom had passed away, so not in reference to my brother at all, but the medium started talking about him. I found many of the things she shared with my mom believable, particularly since she didn't go to talk about him, but I've never been able to really settle on how I feel about it or whether I believe overall.
My mom went to one, and I totally thought it was bullshit. She had all kinds of things to pass on from my grandmother, some about me. And they came true, a few years later.

You didn't lose me. I believe you. And I believe in mediums and psychics, but like other say, I believe there are a lot of frauds.

I'd like to go to a medium. I lost my grandpa almost 2 years ago and my best friend just over a year ago. I've dreamed about both of them. I'd be interested to hear what they have to say. Especially my friend, since there are questions about how she died.
My mom spent a lot of time talking to one after my brother's death. A lot of stuff came up that sort of makes a lot of sense, but I dunno man. I just, I have no idea if I want to believe someone had the power to contact my brother. It freaks me out.
And as you all know, my mil is an energy worker. She has worked on me multiple times over the years. Some of it is kind of like, yeah whatever, but sometimes it's kind of like...whoa. It's hard to explain.
After my niece's boyfriend died, she went to a medium. I tried to talk her out of it, but she persisted. She wanted to flesh out the circumstances of the accident that killed him but left it vague about wanting to know how he died.
My niece was sort of skeptical so she didn't offer much information up front. The medium claimed to need a photograph to make the connection. The late boyfriend was Italian but very racially indeterminate looking. The medium made an assumption about him being black and went down a tangent that her family didn't approve of the relationship (not true, we adored the guy) and that his last words were to his dealer saying "hit me". Yeah, no. Not even close.
Lurker chiming in about psychics, I have a friend who is an astrophysics professor. Being a scientist, he didn't believe in any of that 'bullshit' because there is a scientific reason for everything. He's from India and his wife is American. One summer they went back to visit his family in India and his wife wanted to visit a psychic. To keep the peace, he agreed and inquired in his city about good psychics. He went with his wife under the condition that he could go first because he said they have ways of getting info without people realizing it. He only answered her questions with 'yes' or 'no' and told me that the psychic told him specific personal things about him that even his wife didn't know. He left there believing that there are a few people in the world who actually do have a gift. It was amazing to see the change in his opinion after the visit. I remember him complaining beforehand about how it was such bullshit and then to see the change in his opinion afterwards.
I seriously considered it when I was really struggling with my Grandmom's death, but I would have been shattered if I'd paid a fraud, so I didn't go through with it. If someone I trusted recommended a medium they'd seen and been amazed by, I'd look into it again, especially if the person recommending the medium to me was a skeptic themselves, ha.
As usual, we're on the same page. I would very much love to be able to communicate with my aunt and grandmother. I do believe they've both visited me in dreams. One that I had about my aunt several years ago has always stayed with me, and it still makes me tear up. It wasn't a bad dream, but we both knew that she was dead and we just spent some time together, and she looked healthy and strong like she was before she got sick.
Not sure why I'm sharing this but it just reminded me. I had a dream where my aunt visited me I couldn't believe she was there and I asked her if she knew she was dead and she said yes but I had to wake up. It was the second or third day of a new job and I hadn't set my alarm. That one stays with me.

I believe you. I also am hyper sensitive to things and have had weird things happen. Not to the extent you have but dreams about people completely out of nowhere only to wake up and find out they died the day before. I once had a woman come up to me at an event with 500 people and tell me my aura was the brightest in the room. Her husband was mortified! I also used to see a ghost. I know it sounds crazy and frankly I wouldn't believe me either but it's all good.
Oh and to answer the question no I haven't been to a medium. I'm too scared. Because I'm pretty sensitive I worry I'd tap in too easily and she or he would see things I don't want to know.
I went to one when my dad and grandma passed away . I was desperate to "see" them again
The medium taped the session for me. Tbh I thought she didn't say much that really resonated with me. She did say my recent move was a good thing per my dad so I focused on that but still didn't feel satisfied.
Last year I played the tape for my sister and my sister freaked out. All the things that didn't make sense to me at the time my sister upheld. So many wierd details about my grandmas life I never knew were talked about on the tape. My sister ended up telling me a ton of stories I never knew.
The medium never changed her story even though I told her I didn't really know what she wasvtalking about. It wasnt until my sister heard the tape that I actually thought the medium was in tune to something. I really dont know what.
If nothing else it was worth it to open up communication with my sister and learn a lot about my family that I honestly wouldn't have known otherwise

So my sister initially went to this woman and got a reading and was so inspired, she convinced me to go as well. I was skeptical because I went to an aura reader or something with this sister, and my sister answered questions in a very leading way, but after was like "wow! She knew so much" to which I responded "yes, because you told her dummy"
Anyways, went to this other woman and she started off asking if I was there because the person who is tied to my necklace - I was wearing a necklace given to me by some of your wonderful people after my Dad passed, it was an infinity charm thing...so I can kind of feel like that was pulled out of her ass, but just happened to be right.
She went on to tell me to forgive myself for not being there on Friday...which is really specific to my situation. My Dad died on a Monday, I had plans to be out home on Tuesday for Christmas, and there was no real reason why I stayed in CA that weekend other than I wanted one last day to hang out with the dude I was seeing, so I had been kicking myself for doing that - and I didn't really talk to anyone about it because I felt so guilty.
She also said she was seeing a carousel, and asked if that meant anything to me, which I said yes and left it at that. She said she didn't know what it meant, but she was seeing it...A few weeks after my dad passed, I had a dream that a man gave me a carousel ride that I remember my dad taking me to and I somehow knew in my dream that that meant my Dad approved of this new man in my life. That was before the reading. So that was weird, but then again, what person doesn't have some sort of memory tied to a carousel.
But then she also asked if I had sent a letter to my Dad before his death, which I kind of had - I did that online letter thing where a stranger would draw a card and send it, or something. But I don't think my parents ever got it. I asked my mom and she said she never saw it. When I answered yes, the lady said my Dad said he recieved it and loved it...so maybe that's true...but it would be unlike my Dad to hoard a card from my mom, lol.
Then she gave me a general "life" reading...she asked if I was thinking about moving back to Utah, and I had been thinking about it, but not really seriously. She told me not to. Utah did not vibe with my energy so I shouldn't move back. Now whenever my sister whines about how she wishes I'd move back, I tell her I simply can't - my energy doesn't mesh.
So...there were a few nuggets, but also some things that I didn't feel 100% about...maybe she was just really in tune with my body language and somehow pulled the bits out that made sense. Overall though, it did help me let go of the guilt, even if my Dad wasn't behind it...mostly because I know he wouldn't want me to feel bad about it anyways.
Random but my mom can read your future in greek coffee cups. Her friends will come over and ask for greek coffee and then flip their cups over expectantly. It drives my dad crazy. We were just saying the other day how it would be a great backup career for when they lose the restaurant, lol.
If you don't drink greek (or turkish) coffee, that's what it looks like:
My dear....you have....THE GRIM!
Sorry I couldn't resist.
I had my tarot cards read, most of it ended up being correct. My godmother used to read cards but my mom said she predicted something awful that came true so she hasn't read them since. She read my mom's and described my dad. She told my mom she would have two kids and described what we would look like. At the time, doctors were telling her she couldn't have kids so I kinda believe.
I've never seen anyone communicate with ghosts or "the other side". I think that would take a lot of convincing.
My sister and I went to a medium in a large group setting; there had to have been 300 people there. The gal did reading for different people in the audience all night and explained how she sees their spirits.
She asked that we ask the person we'd like to connect with to be there. I, in my head, asked my mom to pull the lady's hair to get her attention over the other people. I don't know why I thought that, but I did and I leaned over and told my sister that's I had told our mom to do that.
Much later in the reading, the lady stopped in the middle of her reading and asked the lady to "stop pulling her hair" to get her attention. It was crazy. She said the lady had overalls on, which is what my mom wore to garden.
It was such a surreal experience. We didn't get to connect with the reader; she didn't call on us, but we definitely became believers that night.

I have in the past but the ones I chose were sketchy. Now o keep waiting to hear the same name or names come up in conversations and then I will try again. Would love to hear what my future might hold as well as get some messages from my Mom and My DH.

When you get your life insurance money, if you want to do it, I think you should consider Char. It was VERY helpful for me. It helped me make sense of everything and figure out how to make meaning of it in my own life. I could send you the transcript of what she said to me if it would be of interest or help you decide.

I would love that if you don't feel that it's too personal to share.
