10 Signs You Are a Medium… Plus Scientific Evidence of Psychic Abilities
Have you ever felt a deep connection to the spiritual realm, sensing things others don’t, or experienced unexplained phenomena?
You might be a medium, someone who bridges the gap between the physical world and the spiritual plane. Recognizing your abilities can be the first step towards understanding and harnessing them.
Mediumship is an ability that everyone can access, some easier than others. But it’s available to every human on the plant. This ability involves communicating with spirits, and sometimes, if you feel like you want to help others, it includes offering solace, guidance, and insights to those in need. For many, discovering they have this ability comes with a mixture of awe, curiosity, and sometimes, confusion.
How can you tell if you are experiencing signs that point to your medium abilities?
In this article, we’ll explore ten signs that indicate your sensory ability of mediumship. From experiencing vivid dreams that seem more like real visits to receiving messages that provide solutions in your life, or even sensing an unexplainable presence nearby, these signs can help you identify your spiritual capabilities.
1. Heightened Sensitivity
Mediums have heightened sensitivity to their surroundings. They can sense subtle changes in energy, emotions, or sometimes the presence of spirits. This sensitivity can manifest as physical sensations like chills, goosebumps, or a feeling of being watched.
2. Strong Intuition
If you frequently trust your gut and find that it leads you in the right direction, you might have strong intuitive abilities. Mediums have an inner knowing that goes beyond logical reasoning, guiding them in their interactions and decisions.
3. Vivid Dreams and Visions
Experiencing vivid dreams or waking visions can be a sign of your medium abilities. These dreams may involve communication with deceased loved ones, receiving messages, or visiting other realms. Such experiences feel real because they are.
4. Deep Empathy and Emotional Sensory Abilities
Mediums are highly empathetic, often absorbing the emotions of others. You can easily tune into what someone else is feeling, sometimes to the point of feeling overwhelmed by the emotions of those around you.
5. Unexplained Noises and Movements
If you frequently notice unexplained noises, movements, or objects shifting in your environment, it might indicate a connection to the spirit world. Mediums commonly experience these phenomena because spirits are attempting to communicate with them.
6. Feeling Different or Often Misunderstood
You feel different from others and find it challenging to fit in. You often feel misunderstood or isolated, especially if your experiences with spirits began at a young age. Most parents aren’t trained in raising psychic children but that is changing.
7. Attraction to Spirituality and the Unseen World
A strong interest in spirituality, the afterlife, and metaphysical topics is common among mediums. If you find yourself drawn to books, shows, or discussions about these subjects, it could be a way of exploring your medium abilities. More than that, it’s an indicator that your learning journey in this area has begun.

8. Spiritual Encounters During Childhood
Many mediums report having spiritual encounters or imaginary friends during childhood. These experiences are sometimes dismissed by adults who have an undeveloped sensitive nature, but nonetheless this is an indication of psychic abilities.
9. Sensing Spiritual Presence
Mediums can sense the presence of spirits around them. This can manifest as feeling a sudden drop in temperature, a sense of someone standing behind you, or even hearing faint voices or whispers. A painless buzz in the ear is another calling card of spirits. Each of us notices different things depending on our environment and life experiences.
10. Healing Abilities
You might already know that you have healing abilities, whether through energy work, such as Reiki, or simply through the untrained touch. You may also find that others feel better emotionally or physically after spending time with you. And, you may feel drained because of this. This happens because most mediums are empaths… Read more about how not to feel drained by giving too much of yourself to others.
Recognizing That You’re a Medium Can Be Exciting & Overwhelming
If these signs resonate with you, you most likely possess the ability of mediumship. Embracing and developing your abilities can lead to a deeper understanding of yourself and your connection to the spiritual world.
Remember to seek guidance, support, and training from a mentor that resonates with you in order to navigate your journey safely and effectively.
I’m often asked the difference between being psychic and being a medium. I do use the terms interchangeably most of the time, but I’d say that being a medium is a messenger type role. Although it’s up to you whether you want to reach out and share this ability with others in the form of messages from loved ones, or spirit guides.
Being psychic is a broader role which includes perception beyond the five senses we’re taught in our society. To simplify, being a medium often includes many sensory abilities so in essence all mediums are psychic.
Your Psychic Abilities Are Not in Your Head
Understanding Your Psychic Abilities
Psychic abilities, often perceived as mysterious or even mythical, are real experiences for many people around the world.
These abilities include telepathy, clairvoyance, and precognition, among others. While some skeptics may dismiss them as mere figments of imagination, growing evidence and personal testimonies suggest otherwise.
The Science Behind Psychic Abilities
Quantum Physics and Consciousness: Recent advancements in quantum physics suggest that consciousness might not be confined to the brain. Particles can be entangled over vast distances, demonstrating that information can be transferred without physical interaction, aligning with the abilities of telepathy and remote viewing.
Neuroscience Studies: Neuroscientists have explored the brain activities of individuals claiming psychic abilities and studies show that these individuals often exhibit unique brain wave patterns, particularly in the theta and gamma ranges, which are associated with heightened states of awareness and intuition.
Personal Experiences & Anecdotal Evidence
Consistent Accurate Predictions: Many psychics report consistently accurate predictions and insights that go beyond coincidence. These experiences often involve detailed information about future events, personal circumstances of strangers, or knowledge that couldn’t be acquired through other sensory means.
Shared Experiences : It’s not uncommon for individuals to share similar psychic experiences. For example, people who’ve never met might report identical visions or messages from a spirit. These shared experiences provide further validation that psychic phenomena aren’t merely subjective imagination.
Psychic Abilities in Everyday Life
Heightened Intuition: Psychic abilities often manifest as heightened intuition. People may sense danger before it happens, feel someone else’s emotions without a point of reference, or experience a gut feeling that proves accurate. These intuitive flashes are everyday examples of psychic abilities at work.
Spiritual Guidance: Many people use their psychic abilities for spiritual guidance, both for themselves and others. This includes receiving messages from loved ones who’ve crossed over, connecting with spirit guides, or gaining insights during meditation and prayer.
Embracing and Developing Your Psychic Abilities
Training and Practice: Like any other skill, psychic abilities can be honed through practice and training. There are numerous books, workshops, and courses designed to help individuals develop their psychic skills. Techniques include meditation, visualization, and exercises to strengthen intuition and energy perception.
Support and Community: Finding a supportive community is wonderful for those developing their psychic abilities. Joining a group of can provide encouragement, shared experiences, and offer guidance. Online forums, local meetups, and spiritual centers can be excellent places to connect.
Overcoming Skepticism and Fear
Validation and Confidence: Overcoming skepticism, from yourself and others, is a first step in embracing psychic abilities. Keep a journal of your psychic experiences and track their accuracy. This will help you build confidence and provide tangible evidence. This will help you start to trust yourself, your intuition, and your spirit guides.
Dealing with Fear: Fear of the unknown or of being judged can get in the way of accepting your psychic abilities. Educating yourself about psychic phenomena, seeking supportive communities, and gradually exposing yourself to new experiences can help alleviate these fears.
It takes time to deal with fear but a lot of it comes from being unsure of knowing who or what you’re interacting with. Once you learn to handle negative psychic energy and protect yourself from it, your fears will start to diminish.
Psychic Abilities Are Becoming More Mainstream
There’s plenty of evidence, both scientific and anecdotal, that supports the existence of psychic phenomena. By understanding, embracing, and developing your abilities, you can unlock a deeper connection with yourself and the world around you.
Psychic abilities are real aspects of human experience. I know it can feel wildly magical at first, but it’s actually a normal part of your sensory abilities and will become more so with a little practice.
