Maybe it's been asked before, but hasn't so much been answered clearly for me.   When you hear of famous mediums they seem to have been aware of their gift from a very young age.   Most if not all seem to be clairovoiant & clairoaudioant - which they were aware of since they were young.

If you weren't aware of being a medium as a child, is it possible that you could still be one?   Could your gifts suddenely appear or sharpen when you are older like in your 30's or 40's?

I believe that I have some mediumship qualities as I hear voices, songs, radio's when I am in a deep deep relaxation.   Sometimes I can see colors when I read people's lighting or if they are working on my body.
When I was sevenish I had a ring I played with and would chant "spirit spirit come to me" as I rocked the ring back and forth.  Everytime i did that i would get a ringing in my one ear that would get louder but never understood it.  I still get that ringing. (not a medical condition) and belive it to be a spirit trying to get my attention.  I always pay attention to signs and symbols and most times understand them in context to my life.

But lately when I close my eyes in meditation I can see eyes (They appear like an animals eye's do when you catch them in that angle that makes them glow.)  I can sense someone around me at that time but I don't hear them  or see them when my physical eyes are open.


So I wonder if it is possible that my medium skills are developing over time and that one day i may actually be able to see spirits or hear them in the day hours with my physical eyes wide open.  Or if one is meant to be a medium would the skills only present themselves when you are young?

When did you know you had medium qualities??

While sometimes our abilities open and expand through experiences of life when we are older (40s or 50s) the fact is we have been sensitive to 'more' in our universe since childhood.  Those that are sensitive to spirit will open to it at some time in their lifetime.  Those that are materialist will not acknowledge there is 'more' to our world than we can understand on our 5 senses.

It would appear that spirit has been working on your abilities since early in your life.  Perhaps you did not take the time or energy to understand them until you were ready?  We each approach these things when we know we are ready to learn and grow.

For some, as with myself, I just had a lot of sensitivity to places and things which eventually opened and expanded into mediumship in my 40s.  I was ready to accept the knowledge presented at that time, while I was rather busy with family and work life up to that point and could not take the time and energy to learn more.

almost all the people will be having psychic energy till they are 12yrs age.In India for some divination systems they use a 12yr boy as a medium to predict events on behalf of the questioner who wants to know about his future.Generally people up to this age are innocent of their acts results.later on they do mistakes intentionally thereby loosing their purity & so loosing their psychic ability.some will be having this energy till they turn 20.after that it depends on how they live.some are born with psychic talents but will not be having time to harness its skills because of responsibilities.so naturally they exhibit their talents when they have settled fully as the stress on the mind decreases at that time.so as you have said the age of 30 or 40 where one's maturity is highly developed & balanced.whatever may be the thing the psychic energy is always verses the calmness of the mind.it gets exhibited when your breathe stops a while.so most of them will be exhibiting the hunks of intuition and only few heed to its advice!

Life has a way of getting in the way of psychic/spiritual development.  We get caught up in our material pursuits - work, family, etc. - and lose sight of the 'more' in the universe that opens on the psychic sensitivities.  They don't go away, they are just buried in our material outlook.

When we are ready to open the door, the key will be provided.  It is sometimes amazing how things and people come into our lives just at the right time for things to unfold!  I know my story is like that and when I was ready, the door was provided.

I think time also is important in unfolding the lost treasure of our wisdom.One should be ready for the door to open to enjoy its wisdom.
