Answer: If it’s an online reading, prepare by finding a quiet space, have water and tissues handy, be prepared to ask questions and be open to hear what is given.
This post is part of our "Top 10 Questions About Mediumship" blog series — where we answer your most common questions about readings, Spirit and what really happens in a session.
What Should I Do Before My Mediumship Reading?
Preparing for a reading doesn't require anything elaborate — but a little preparation goes a long way.
Essential Items to Bring:
Water and tissues
Notepad or recording device
An open heart and willingness to receive guidance
What Questions Should I Ask During My Reading?
Ask "how" and "what" questions instead of yes/no questions. Focus on understanding, outcomes, and spiritual lessons. The more specific the question, the more specific the answer. Spirit loves to give clarity.
Best Question Examples:
What do I need to understand about this situation?
What would be the outcome if I chose path A vs. path B?
What is the spiritual lesson in this challenge?
How can I be more at peace with this person or situation?
What Are the Three Key Life Areas for Mediumship Questions?
Mediumship readings cover three interconnected areas: Spiritual Life (guides, past lives, karmic patterns), Personal Life (relationships, family, emotional patterns), and Work Life (career, finances, purpose alignment).
1. Spiritual Life Questions
Your connection with your guide, lessons from past lives, karmic patterns, spiritual tests, and your growth. This includes your relationship to nature and your presence in the world.
2. Personal Life Questions
Family dynamics, love relationships, friendships, your relationship with yourself, and emotional patterns.
3. Work Life Questions
Career path, job satisfaction, financials, work relationships and whether your work aligns with your purpose.
How Long Should I Wait Before a Reading About Someone Who Has Passed?
Wait at least 6-12 months before seeking a reading involving someone who has passed away. This allows time for transition and connection to the Spirit.
What Information Do I Need for Questions About Other People?
Provide the person's full name and approximate age to ensure a correct spiritual connection. Spirit will only share what's relevant to your growth — never in a way that invades someone's privacy.
How Do I Know If I'm Ready for a Mediumship Reading?
Ask yourself: Why have I decided to book a reading? Look for areas of confusion, sadness, or longing in your life. What would it feel like to have more peace, more joy, more clarity? Let your heart — not just your mind — guide the way.
What Should I Expect During My Reading Session?
Expect to feel anxious at first, then calm, and supported. There's no need for fear or anxiety to remain for long. We guide you through the entire process, and every reading includes dedicated space for your questions.
