WHAT IS TRANCE MEDIUMSHIP & WATCH ELAINE THORPE IN TRANCE
THE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF TRANCE MEDIUMSHIP
Mediumship comes in various different forms, so to that end, the medium works in a variety of ways. Generally speaking, when a medium uses mental mediumship to link up with the spirit world, the communication between the two worlds begins in their mind. This state then starts to intensify via channeled speaking, and various levels of trance [1].
These states are classified according to the medium's level of conscious awareness, and the degree in which the spirit person has blended their energy with the medium's energy [1]. The three categories of trance, comprise:
Light Trance
Medium (Semi- Deep) Trance
Deep Trance is a state in which the spirit person can blend with the medium at a physical level [1] (such as that demonstrated by Elaine Thorpe in the video towards the end of this blog). When the spirit person is merging with the medium, the latter will not be aware of what is going in. Moreover, when the medium comes out of trance, they will not be able to recall the events that took place [2].
A NOTE OF CAUTION
Anyone who is interested in trance mediumship, should only sit in a circle which is headed by an experienced Spiritualist circle leader, in an appropriate venue. Earlier this week, when I attended the renowned Spiritualists' Association of Edinburgh Trance Circle at the Arthur Conan Doyle Centre in Edinburgh: after going into a semi-deep meditative-type state, an unknown spirit man blended with me, and I felt the adam's apple in my throat getting bigger and extending out - so much so, that it felt extremely uncomfortable, painful, and as though I was being strangled. I urgently put my hands on my throat, and our circle leader quickly asked the spirit person to step back, just before I was about to do the same.
Many people may not know that: if a male spirit is blending with a female medium who is in a semi-deep or deep state of trance, a slight enlarging of the adam's apple can be quite common. However, in this incident which I have described, I felt that the spirit man had been hanged in Edinburgh. (Hanging had been commonplace there for a few hundred years). Alas, I was not able to find out any more about him, as the interaction via my mediumship had to be abruptly ceased. (Some people faced the hangman for minor offences such as taking livestock, or shoplifting).
As the College of Psychic Studies, notes: "changes to the appearance of the trance medium may occur; facial features can be seen to change as the facial muscles are altered by the communicator. Physical changes such as posture and hand movements can also be seen" [2]
TRANCE CIRCLES
In a trance circle "tangible phenomena that are felt and seen by others, such as orbs of light, rapping noises and apports are produced by a medium in a deep trance state within a controlled environment" [2]
Trance circles that are run by acknowledged spiritual organisations have a highly experienced medium leading the group. The latter's role is to remain vigilant and watch all the members of the group. (Moreover, for protection purposes, it is also important to open up and close down after a session). I cannot stress enough that anyone who is interested in this field, should take these matters seriously. - It is not a film...
STAYING IN CONTROL
Whenever a medium goes into a state of trance, they always maintain control. They have formed a partnership between the two worlds which is founded on love and free will. The trance medium will have gone through a great deal of training, and over the years, will have built up unwavering trust with those from the next dimension [1]. Many spirit people want to communicate with us - to not only prove the continuous existence of the human soul, but to also give messages to their loved ones and others who they had known on the earth plain. - And in some cases, such as during trance, a spirit person (who could be a spirit guide), may give guidance and predictions for the collective.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIGHT & DEEP TRANCE
When it comes to light trance, the medium remains partially conscious, so to that end, they able to remember what their guide has said. Conversely, when it comes to deep trance, the medium gives permission to their spirit guide to take them over, and as such, they change their level of consciousness, and step aside, thus making them completely unaware of what their guide has said [1].
