Mystic of New Orleans

For many, the delightful art of communicating with ancestors and spirit guides, or dead..... it’s all about tapping into those unique special psychic powers, the intuition.  

Enter the Psychic Medium, a whimsical wizard of sorts, juggling a variety of roles like a circus performer. They are not just delivering messages from beyond the veil, however also tapping into ones higher self, soul deep providing priceless guidance for evolution, personal growth a like confetti at a parade. The results bringing heaps of comfort and insight to ones life.

Think of a Psychic Medium as your personal spiritual guide, assisting with non judgmental navigating of the pot holes of life. They assist with mending those heartstrings after a loss, and tackle any metaphysical hiccups that come your way. 

From where I stand, Psychic Mediums are like spiritual cheerleaders, assisting you to soulshine brighter than a disco ball at a Saturday night fever bar.

If you’re on the hunt to gaining some clarity on your current shenanigans, you typically consult a Psychic. However, hold your horses if you’re itching to connect with the spirit world—keep that mind wide open whereas then you ought to seek out a Psychic Medium. With a Psychic Medium one never knows which unexpected ghostly guest might pop in for a chat. Besides in keeping it real, it is a smart move to keep your expectations low before you dive into such sessions. 

Now, according to our trusty academic friend Merriam-Webster, a Medium is “a person through whom others seek to communicate with spirits of the dead.” Sounds all formal and spooky all at the same time, right? 

Hence you put the two together and you get a Psychic Medium. Like me, Anastasia.

It is said that Mediumship has a rich history tied to the Spiritualist Movement, which burst onto the scene in North America around 1848, especially in the bustling streets of New York and here in New Orleans. 

The word “Medium” comes from the Latin “medius,” meaning “middle”—a fitting title for someone who’s like a bridge between worlds. It made its English debut somewhere between 1575 and 1585, and you might also hear them referred to as Spiritualists, Clairvoyants, Mind Readers, or Fortune Tellers.  Sometimes I have been called a Spiritualist.

Again, as mentioned in the above segment, the main mission of a Medium is to communicate with those beyond the veil. On addition they perhaps assisting with a little closure and comfort to those feeling blue after losing a loved one, especially when it’s a surprise exit that leaves hearts heavy. 

Now, there’s a bit of a friendly debate about the difference between a Channeler and a Medium. While many use the terms like interchangeable puzzle pieces, just like Psychic and Medium as it gets even MORE confusing for sure. Some Mediums insist their craft is a specialized skill that takes serious training—like learning to juggle flaming torches. Indeed it is more challenging to learn and attain. And I DO concur with this. I also speak from personal experience.

To make it even more confusing, realize that there are two classifications of Mediumship. There is physical and mental. This distinction is especially clear in the realm of Physical Mediumship, while the lines blur a bit in Mental Mediumship. 

Most aspiring Mediums start with Mental Mediumship, unless they are feeling particularly adventurous and want to attempt and go for it with Physical Mediumship, which isn’t everyone’s cup of tea.  I have to admit it doesn't matter which Mediumship method I use as I don't have a preference, however can say that Physical Mediumship can just pop up when touching things for me. This is and does get freaky  for me because it is unexpected. This is why I practice and is like my second nature to be mindful. 

Physical Mediumship is like entering a deep sleep, like at a low theta to low delta 4.89 to 3 Hz allowing the Medium to take a little vacation from their body while spirits come out to play. This can lead to all sorts of fun phenomena, including: 

 **Apportation:**                                                       Objects like flowers zipping between the spirit and physical realms—talk about floral delivery! - 

**Direct Voice:**                                                           Spirits chatting through electronic gadgets or even the Medium’s own voice—ghostly karaoke, anyone? 

**Ectoplasm:**                                                                   A gooey substance that oozes out, letting spirits show off their ghostly forms.

 -**Levitation:**                                                              Objects or even people floating around, proving spirits have some serious energy.

 **Materialization:**                                                       Spirits or objects popping up from the spirit world, ready for a high-five. 

**Rapping:**                                                                   Spirits making their presence known with some good old-fashioned knocks or taps—ghostly percussion. 

**Table Tipping:**                                                              A séance table doing a little dance to communicate with spirits—talk about a table with moves! 

 **Telekinesis:**                                                               The Medium using their mind to give objects a little nudge—who needs hands, right? 

Then comes the other method, Mental Mediumship. Mental Mediumship is the more common way of connecting, where the Medium receives messages from those who are beyond the veil. 

Mental Mediumship usually takes place while the Psychic Medium is in a light trance state, like at a low alpha 9.89 to 8.2 Hz n a slightly altered conscious state of mind but still keeping a handle on their physical body.  This practice is often linked with channeling, making it a delightful dance with the spirit world. It is what I often do. Let's connect....see what shakes out...

Hope this assisted with you having a better understanding of what it is that I do and how I can be of service for you. IF you have questions, send me a text or email from my Contact Anastasia page.
