Find a place that is quiet and comfortable for all of those attending.
Lights may be adjusted for ambiance - or normal room lighting used.
No special effects are needed.
It is best to be seated either around a table or in a circle on the
floor.
Candles and or flowers may be present in the room as they are said to
attract spirit - white being the preferable color.
The number of people is not important but it is best to have a friend or
relative of the person you wish to contact present in the room.
You may use video or audio equipment at your discretion, but bear in
mind the high frequencies from Spirits may cause the equipment to shut
off or break.
You might even try a few still photos. Some people use infra-red film
and get very interesting images.
Room temperature or ventilation is also at your discretion.
Be sure that telephones won't disturb your séance.
Many people prefer nighttime for séances.
Spirits usually have no preference as they no longer exist in space
-time.
Now that you have set the scene for your séance, be sure that everyone
is comfortable not having to get up to go to the bathroom, or to have a
drink of water or smoke a cigarette.
Decide where everyone is to sit. Some groups like to sit - male - female
- male - female, etc.
It is best to have a medium who is experienced speaking with spirits. If
a medium is not present - one person should lead the group.
You can join hands in a group to raise energy or just sit quietly.
Holding hands can get annoying after a while if the séance goes on too
long.
Spirits are not affected by hand joining but somewhere we got the idea
that holding hands increasing the communications (One note about hand
holding - energies flow into you through the left hand and out through
the right hand - always).
Some people prefer hand holding in a circle, but that gets tiring and
people often get fidgety.
A prayer may be offered before you begin asking for protection and for
only the positive spirits to join your group. Some people pray to God
others ask their own spirits guides or deceased loved ones for guidance
and protection.
Many spiritual people place (visualize) a white light around the room.
People may take a deep breath with their closed as in meditation if they
also wish to connect with the spirits. The medium is not the only person
who can hear them. Anyone who is not afraid will be able to relax and
have their own experience as well. The deep breath is to raise your
level of consciousness to alpha state. You may take another slow deep
breath again at any time through the séance.
The medium may or may not need to close his / her eyes to contact the
spirits. The spirit you are contacting will already know about the
séance and should be there when you start. If not--they are probably not
coming.
You may close your eyes as well if you chose to make a stronger
connection. Remember spirit is connecting with your thought forms not
what you are physically saying.
As the medium begins to call spirit you may experience physical things
in the room-- noises, cool air blowing--a tickling sense of
touch--smells of perfume, cigars, cooking odors--the table lifts a bit
(that could be caused by the telekinetic energies of the people sitting
at the table).
The medium must first determine who the spirit is and who they came to
talk to.
Messages are then passed along followed by questions by the person
connected to the spirit. As with all channeling --only ask the question
once, not repeated until you get the desired answer you seek.
Each person at the table should get to speak to at least one spirit.
A good medium will not tire from this. (I find it fun chatting with
spirit)!
Sometimes spirits may come that you did not expect. Chat quickly with
them - thank them - and tell them to move on.
Some spirits chat a lot but some just say one or two things then leave.
There is no length of time for a séance. This is up to you, the spirit,
and the medium.
It's funny when several spirits come down and they all want to talk at
once. This must be paced as one would any discussion in a group.
A séance can be a wonderful emotional healing experience when done in
the proper setting with the proper medium.
Not all spirits are human. Some are pets.
Some are other aspects of ourselves as we are ALL multidimensional and
exist simultaneously in other realities.
Some are spirit guides.
Most spirits want their loved ones here to know they are OK on the other
side or to clear up unfinished business.
Some come to talk about their deaths.... especially in murders or
suicides. (I have worked on police cases).
Some are funny. . . some sad.
Some come alone. Some come with others who wait quietly.
Some speak languages foreign to me so I have the person's spirit guides
interpret for them, or they show me pictures in my mind.
Some come for personal issues then go on to tell me more about the
changes occurring in the Universe.
Not all spirits can come to talk. Some are busy. Some have come back
into physical bodies. Some have gone off to other planets and realms.
Some simply chose not to come.
Then there is this question. . .
What do I do if the entities are negative and say things like "Die!"
If you can not get rid of the spirit you may have to stop the séance.
Someone has attracted that spirit for the adventure of it all!
Dysfunctional people will attract dysfunctional spirits sometimes - as
is above , so is below! Be sure you know who is in your group especially
if you are a beginner!
If you feel like having a séance then go for it.
Be protected and listen with your mind not your ears!
With the veils between dimensions thinning out - the number of spirits
coming to visit with me during my readings, is increasing.
Meditations with my classes often turn into séances.
