A spirit guide will not step in unless a light has been lit to show them the way to the medium.  Those that are fearful have actually opened the door themselves.  Their interests, their reading, their meditations, whatever they are doing in thought is awakening a light within themselves into which the spirit guide (and other spirit) can enter.

Hence the importance of identifying the spirit guide and welcoming only the loving, caring spirit to your light.

thank you for your guidance.i believe light shineth forever.
in school days we use to pray lead kindly light...

Light is about our soul quality.  It is enhanced as our soul is enhanced by our spiritual lessons.  It will continue to be enhanced even as we pass to spirit realms.

How long have you been a medium?

I've been seeing 'spirits' since I was a kid, so I was always used to the subject. Albeit annoyed... (Especially in school. Can't copy notes with a 'spirit' blocking your view.)

When a spirit is invading my personal space, I go all "Oh no you didn't!"....dirty look and all.

Also, ignoring helps. If you act like they're not there, after awhile, the actually aren't there anymore!

Personally, I find exercising is a great way to keep my mind (and body...especially cellulite) in tune. I know other psychics swear by meditating and stuff, but I'm way too ADD-ish to sit still for more than 5 minutes.

All lessons in life lead to psychic/mediumship awareness, if we allow, of course.  Spirit guides us from birth to the education we need and the career we will choose.  This allows us the freedom to choose to open and develop all that extras within ourselves.

When we have a talent, it is important to get a good teacher to show the basics as we practice to make it our own skill.  Music comes to mind - even a concert pianist with natural talent, had a teacher to show him the fingering.  Mediumship is the same - it is a talent we need to pick up and learn as much as we can before randomly exercising it.

Many will not agree with that, but also find themselves severely challenged by the do it yourself approach.  We see their problems in groups such as this all the time.  Good development begins with a teacher to show the way.
