CHANNELING also called MEDIA CABINET

Anne Jorunn Løkken and Pearl Lodur-Lionheart have collaborated within this article.

According to Google, the definition of mediumship is that as a medium you are a channel or intermediary between the spirit world and man. Actually, the word mediumship implies everything that has to do with the medial, and all types of spirit contact.

A medium is a person who can make contact with the spirit world. You can get in touch with friends and loved ones who have crossed over to the other side, as well as guides. Some also claim they can contact guardian angels and angels.

A medium is an ordinary person who has developed his abilities through training and who is able to contact the spirit world and communicate with various spirits.

A medium can work in several ways, and can get information from the spirit world in several ways. You can be:

​

• Clairvoyant (psychic): one can see images of a person or a situation.

• Clearly felt: you feel your own body, e.g. pain

• Clearly heard: you can hear voices, sounds

• Go into a trance: you go into a trance while awake and silently receive messages from the spirit world.

• Deep Trance: The medium goes into a deep trance, a sleeping state, a state of its own which is experienced as leaving one's own body. The medium does not even remember anything that is said in the séance.

• Automatic writing: The medium "lends" his hand and allows the spirit world to write messages with pen and paper.

• "The Knowing" The medium only knows and trusts this knowledge.

• Some Mediums have contact with all these qualities in themselves.

• Channeling!

​

The belief that the soul moves on is not a new thought. We find it again in several cultures and in ancient literature.

A conversation with a medium is often called "sitting", which originates from England and the expression "sitting with spirit"

The great Norwegian encyclopedia says:

​

"Channeled messages are often understood as important knowledge, transmitted from beings with great insight into matters hidden from ordinary people, to particularly susceptible individuals. There is no documentation that channeling actually occurs, so this article is largely about how the phenomenon is understood in texts written by central actors. Channeling can be understood as a continuation of the modern spiritualism that emerged in the last half of the 19th century. The 19th-century spiritualists saw themselves as researchers, they wanted to map the transition from life to death, and took use contemporary technology (photos, audio recordings, etc.) to document the presence of the dead. Today's channeling is to a greater extent integrated into various new religious practices and therefore encompasses a much greater diversity."
