YES! You are a natural trancemedium. Everybody is, just like everybody is psychic and intuitive. It's a spiritual or energetic ability that we are all born with.
The ability to bring energy through your body is called trancemediumship. Another word for being a trancemedium is being a channeler. Naturally, we have been socialized to fear this word channeling because over the centuries, some people have brought fourth, and continue channel unpleasant energies that are uncomfortable to the body or even painful or punishing.
An example of this is when an alcoholic totally changes personality when they are under the influence. Their energy has partly stepped out of the body, and another energy has come in to wreak havoc or run it's own agenda. On the opposite side of the spectrum of trancemedium ability is the skilled and authentic healer who works with positive and helpful energies and channels communication and healing energy to help people.
We probably all channel every day, at one time or another, and it's mostly not that noticeable if you are not aware of it. Sometimes we find ourselves acting just like our parent or relative. Sometimes you come upon a performer who is singing a song exactly like the original singer of the song, so much so that's it's uncanny. Or we observe an actor playing a role so unlike himself we say he became that person for a while. We might hear that when the acting role is over, the actor continues to live out the character he was portraying, still channeling that entity or being. All this is in the realm of trancemediumship or channeling.
At the ACC we learn to have seniority over our trancemediumship ability so we can learn to channel only what we choose, and to choose with awareness. One great way to learn to become more aware of your trancemediumship ability is to consciously work with your spirit guides. When you work with spirit guides in a healing capacity, there is no need to bring them into your body.
If reading any of the above scares you, realize that fear is just energy, it's only your programming responding, sending the fear alarm to stop you from questioning, to keep you asleep. As long as part of you is in denial, you can be compelled to fulfill agendas that don't truly feel like your own--like being a compulsive healer. An example of this is feeling like a giant energy washing machine for your whole family. But there is nothing to fear. You are a light that many are attracted to working with, living in an incredible time of change here on earth where more and more we recognize old patterns and end them. Furthermore, you already have a measure of seniority or you would not be reading this article! Instead of having fear of another one of your psychic abilities, learn to master it.
Seniority starts with taking a moment to listen to your own inner voice when it says "what just happened?" To not override your intuition when it says something weird or different is going on.
Then take a moment to say hello to the energy you know is not you, that you sense, perhaps nearby or within. The power of a spirit to spirit hello is immense, more than you can imagine, because most of you vastly underestimate who you are. Your concentrated awareness can stop another energy in it's tracks, but because you have been convinced that this is not true, you won't believe it as you read this. Sooner or later though, you will have to decide to take a leap of faith in yourself, and let yourself experience the power of your own awareness.
When you can stop and trust your own intuition, and know that 'something strange is up', you are waking up from the game that has kept part of you asleep and inactive. In the past you would convince yourself you 'just imagined it'. But this is a new day, in a changing world, where more and more psychic explorers are waking up from the games that have kept them asleep, and ending their participation in activities that limit their creativity. More people every day are deciding to reclaim all of their natural spiritual abilities...and not only that, to use their abilities in ways that give them joy and let them journey through life being authentic to their true selves.
So, reclaim your trancemedium ship ability, don't be afraid. Re-own your channeling skills, even if you don't want to channel anything, ever. Let every part of you resonate with your truth and your light. And enjoy your life path even more, while you create the life you want to live. You can take a little step today, with the intention that from now on you will practice the art of trusting your intuition by saying hello to what you are already experiencing. By simply being honest with yourself with what you already know deep down to be true. Decide not to play the game of repressing your experience anymore.
Of course, that is sometimes easier said than done, and that's why we have created a safe place to come and experiment, the Academy of Clairvoyance and Consciousness, where we are all in a process of having fun and exciting discoveries about our essential selves, and the magnificient journey that we are on.
If you feel you are ready to express and experience more of your essential nature, and your natural healing abilities, in many forms, please join us in the Fall 2010 for our Advanced Healing Program. It's going to be a fun, wild and mind-blowing adventure. It will change your life forever...if you let it.
