Videntes para conectar con seres queridos fallecidos

Talking about someone you miss

You don't need to know how mediumship works to ask for a reading. “Can we make this about my mother?” will do.

A medium describes impressions they attribute to spirits, then explains how they relate to the person or question you have brought to the chat. The account might include a word, a picture or a feeling, but it is the reader's interpretation, without a guarantee of contact.

Psychic readings for grief

You may miss your grandmother's company and the things she used to say. A reading can centre on those memories. It doesn't have to be an account of her death.

And if the relationship was difficult, say so. You may want to ask about an argument you remember, rather than leave the reader to assume you got on well.

Questions for the chat

• Does my relative have a message for me?

• I never said goodbye to my dad. Can I ask about our last conversation?

• Why do I keep having the same dream about my grandmother?

• I'd like a reading about my mother before I get married. Where do we begin?

• Can the reading be about the funny things I remember about my friend?

There are more examples in the guide to questions to ask a psychic.

Choosing a reader

Gregor Bell describes himself as a medium, Tarot reader and clairvoyant. Destiny Advisor writes about Tarot and spiritual séances with loved ones. For a Tarot reading, the advisor draws cards and talks through their meaning with your question in mind. Ask whether your session will use cards, mediumship or both. You can read more about the format on the psychic mediums page.

Look through the reviews as well. What do people say about having things explained? The profiles show availability and a price per minute. Check those details for the reader you've chosen.

How it works

1. Open the profile of the reader you've chosen.

2. Select Book Session. Join Now or Log In appears if you're signed out.

3. Complete the booking. In the chat, tell the advisor who the reading is about and ask your question.

An unfamiliar description is worth questioning. “What makes you say that?” gives the reader a chance to explain it. You don't have to find a match for it in your memories.

What to have ready

• Who you want to ask about and how you knew them

• The question you'd like to begin with

• For a dream, a note made before hearing the reading

Keep the dream note as you wrote it. It's your own record to refer back to after the session.

FAQ

Can a reading be about someone I lost years ago?

Yes. An anniversary or a family story may bring up a question years later.

Do dreams or familiar details prove that contact happened?

No. Hearing something you recognise in a reading doesn't establish that it came from the person who died. Neither does a dream about them.

Is a reading the same as grief counselling?

No. This is a spiritual consultation about your loved one. It doesn't include grief counselling.

How much does a session cost?

The price per minute is on the advisor's profile. At the same rate, a longer session costs more. Read the terms of any offer shown to you before booking.
