Communicating With Spirits | Talking To The Dead

Someone once said that we are not human beings having a spiritual experience..We are spiritual beings having a human experience.

For centuries,  humans have attempted to communicate with spirits and talk to the dead. Rituals, Seances, Mediums, Ouija boards and more have been used throughout history in an attempt to speak to the dead. Often people feel the need to have some form of closure when a loved one passes away, while others are simply fascinated with the paranormal and are eager to prove the existence of an afterlife. Some think that the human fascination with ghosts and spirits exists because of our deep seeded knowledge that we are more than flesh and bone.

How To Communicate With Spirits

Modern day has ushered in new technology which has made talking to the dead or communicating with spirits seem much more achievable. Digital recorders (evp recorders) Ghost boxes and other inventions have been used to reach out and talk to the dead.  The technical approach has become the most popular in our culture today, because with the proper technology, anyone can attempt to tap into the realm of the dead. Evp’s have produced stunning results for both professional ghost hunters and amateurs alike. You can read more about electronic voice phenomenon here –  Evp Recordings

However, Mediums and psychics are still practicing and are still used often to communicate with spirits. The supernatural abilities of the few have been fascinating to the many for as long as history has been recorded. Shamans, witch doctors, spirit guides and more have been looked to as a gateway to the unknown. But are they really communicating with spirits? Could they be Talking To The Dead?

How Mediums Work

A medium is a psychic that has been able to harness their gift or was born with an unexplained ability to communicate with spirits and the dead. Mediums are “middle men” or can be viewed as a bridge between the land of the living and the world of the dead. While psychics are known for having a sixth sense and an ability to know or “see” things, a Medium is someone that can literally be used by spirits as a tool for communication. Their own energy can often be drained as they not only see, but can hear and often feel the emotions of spirits. Spirits have even been reported to speak through the mediums, with the medium having no recollection of the events.

Learning to Talk To Spirits

Rather than dive into areas that are not understood or dabble in the occult, most people choose to use one of the more familiar options above. However, there are others that want to know more. They want to be more involved and learn how to communicate with spirits directly. If you are one of these folks, then you should be very careful. Many methods used in the past to create gateways between the living and the dead have been said to cause more harm than good. It’s not always clear who or what you may be communicating with. Things like Ouija boards should not be taken lightly and are often frowned upon as a tool for contacting or talking to spirits. So what should you do?
