"During his early days in Los Angeles, James was invited to attend a session with a medium, although he didn't even know at that time what a medium was. Given that, he was understandably dubious when the medium informed James that he would be doing the same work within two years. "My first reaction was, I have enough trouble dealing with the living; why do I want to talk to the dead?"

As James' sensitivity increased, he began doing psychic readings for friends. During these readings, he began receiving detailed messages from the beyond. Though at first this seemed bizarre, the more he learned, the more he could not deny the fact that he had the gift to reach beyond the familiar plane of existence we call life. Today, James is recognized as one of the foremost mediums in the world.

Naturally, there remain skeptics about his abilities. James, however, is the first to say that he welcomes healthy skepticism, declaring, in fact, that he is a skeptic himself. "I believe that I am doing this, but I don't believe that just anyone can do this. All mediums are psychics, but not all psychics are mediums."

A psychic senses energy around the living people or objects. A medium not only senses energy, but is able to interface between the slower vibrations of the physical world and the much faster ones of the spirit world.

Though James is quick to point out that his gift does not provide insights into the future, he is able to provide detailed evidential proof that a loved one survived death. Surviving death may seem to be the supreme oxymoron, but he has a firm belief that we are all spirit beings, and that there is far more to our life than our life span.

Ultimately, James feels extremely fortunate to be a conduit of comfort, healing, and most importantly, love. "As a medium, I have never experienced anything but love and compassion and healing in my work," he avows. 'It is the love bond between people which allows me to make the connection between the living and the dead.'" - Excerpt from James Van Praagh site.

Mediums are people who have widened their awareness to look beyond the veil of death. By bringing in proof of survival, they relieve the trauma of separation that is inherent in our present-day culture. As the Shift widens and progresses, more and more people will be able to look through the veils and have experiences that prior to now have been relegated to psychics or mystics.

Beyond The Dream

From the film "The Sixth Sense" released in 1999:

Cole Sear: I see dead people.
Malcolm Crowe: In your dreams?
[Cole shakes his head no]
Malcolm Crowe: While you're awake?
[Cole nods]
Malcolm Crowe: Dead people like, in graves? In coffins?
Cole Sear: Walking around like regular people. They don't see each other. They only see what they want to see. They don't know they're dead.
Malcolm Crowe: How often do you see them?
Cole Sear: All the time.

When "The Sixth Sense" came out, my sister was so impressed by this movie she demanded I watch it. I kept saying that I probably would but ultimately had no intention of watching it. I heard it was a horror movie and had no intention of watching it. She kept telling me: "It's really scary." Being sensitive, I don't need to heighten my imagination with horrific scenarios, I used to get plenty of those when I fell asleep prior to the year 1999. It's a natural occurrence for someone who is forcefully awakened in consciousness: trauma. I had experienced intense amounts of trauma for a significant period of time in my astral journeyings until I realized that it was all my creation based on the belief systems I chose to align with. Knowing this helped me to clear my subjective landscape into a much more pleasant environment.

So, one day I visited my sister who was so intent on getting me to watch this movie that she had rented it out and demanded I sit through it. Seeing I wasn't going to get out of it, I sat down to watch it only to go through two of the most boring hours of video I had ever seen. The movie was a re-run of the last three years of my life. I sat there thoroughly amazed at how anyone could find that interesting. The only difference was that whereas Cole was seeing dead people while he was awake, I saw them nightly when I went to sleep. But, other than that, the first hour of the movie was totally self-explanatory to me. There was no mystery or fear attached to the movie for me, I already knew from the first image of the movie what was happening. All the images of blood and people pleading for help, all of that was rather rampant on the astral planes in 1999 as any good medium can tell you. It was obvious he was medium. To me, this movie was not scary, it was life.

When something is unfamiliar to us, we see it as scary and horrific. Thus, the more experience we allow ourselves, the less trauma we will experience as the Shift progresses. While others are running around wondering why a little boy sees images of blood and murder, the rest of us will know how to help such a little one. That little one may end up being your child. The children coming into the Earth plane are very special right now. They are sensitives to a greater and greater degree. Think of the many years of trauma we can save them by seeking to understand our own experiences and releasing our judgments about them. Think how they can change this world for the better. We are all in deep communion with each other. What they learn, we all learn.

In 2005, this phrase still reverbates in popular culture: "I see dead people." My daughter exclaimed to me that two people asked her in a single week if she was seeing dead people. She thought that was the most ridiculous question she had ever heard. I said: "I see dead people, but don't worry I haven't seen one in a very long time in this house." She just turned a pale color and then said: "Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah" as she put her fingers to her ears. I laughed. I know that in the Shift many more people will be seeing dead people, whether they want to or not.
