Guides in Mediumship: Friend or Foe?

Ever felt torn between what you've been taught about mediumship and what actually works for you? That's exactly where I found myself when discussing the controversial role of spirit guides in mediumship readings.

The metaphysical community loves its rules and boundaries—some practitioners insist that engaging with your guides during mediumship splits your energy and weakens your connection to departed loved ones. Others claim that "pure" mediumship should only involve communication with the deceased. But are these limitations helping or hindering our work?

Drawing from years of experience, I challenge these restrictive beliefs. Our guides are our eternal teachers, cheerleaders, and spiritual support system—they've been assigned to us for a purpose. The idea that we have "finite energy" contradicts the unlimited nature of spirit. We are souls first and physical bodies second, with access to boundless spiritual resources when we trust our connections.

What I've discovered is that guides can actually enhance mediumship by clarifying messages, managing overwhelming situations, and serving as gatekeepers when multiple spirits want to communicate. They're not distractions—they're facilitators helping both you and communicating spirits deliver healing messages more effectively.

The most important thing is finding what works for you rather than following arbitrary rules that create anxiety and self-doubt. There's no single "right way" to practice mediumship—only the ethical way that honors the truth of the messages you receive and serves your clients' highest good. Trust your process, use your spiritual resources wisely, and remember why you've been given these incredible connections in the first place.

What's your experience with guides during readings? Have you felt conflicted about including them in your practice? I'd love to continue this conversation and support your unique spiritual journey.
