Occasionally, friends who come through if they have an important message to convey. Siblings or other family members often come through as well – those who have a strong connection with séance attendees. The spirits who come through most frequently are the grandparents and parents of those present and spirits of place (those who just happen to be present in the space). We often only notice spirit activity when activity is very obvious! Who, from the spirit world, typically shows up most in seances? Spirits use the tools that are available to them and those we are paying the most attention to. They were once kicked out of their own online séance while channelling the spirit of a woman who – as they were told by her daughter once they got back online – hated mediums. Although it didn’t happen during my séance, Dan and Kate shared that the spirits often use modern technology to show they are present: such as manifesting audio distortions and strange shadows seen in Zoom windows. Throughout the 90 minute session, people experienced spirit activity around them such as loud bangs, scratching, items falling over, and weird smells among other things. I will keep that message within the séance circle, but it made me cry, and it left me feeling very comforted and at peace. Mine came from my dad, who died a year ago to the day that the séance was held. Using our scrying surfaces, we were guided through a meditation to receive our own messages and ask questions of our passed loved ones, whilst Dan and Kat also started to share what they were picking up.Įveryone’s messages felt detailed, authentic, and reassuring. "Everyone’s messages felt detailed, authentic, and reassuring."įinally, we entered the main section of the séance. Messages started to arise for some people. Then we entered the ~séance space~ by interacting with our pendulum, and entering into a trance state to find our own liminal space (the ~between~ where spirits and living beings can meet and communicate) and Kat also began automatic writing. The level of interaction was totally up to each attendee.įirst off, we created a psychic circle, replicating digitally what would have been created by holding hands and meditating in person. 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. I have always been intrigued (haven’t you?) by spiritualism and mediumship, so I didn’t hesitate to accept an invite to attend an online séance (yes that’s a thing now) with celebrity occultists, séance hosts, and mediums The Eckharts (Dan and Kat, a real-life couple, from Maryland US.) What is a séance?Ī séance is an attempt to communicate with spirits (the word séance comes from the French word for "session", from the Old French seoir, "to sit").
