New old waveI was invited to help a friend at a charity evening of spirit last night and it proved interesting considering I have had nothing to do with that kind of thing for years.
There were Tarot readers Reiki Healing head massage and of course clairvoyants.
I have windged in the past about the quality of mediumship these days and that is not because the old ones used to seem better. They were better.
Imagine my surprise when I found that I knew five of the mediums working there and they were all from the old school of mediums average age about sixty. I spoke to them all and caught up with the last fifteen years news and found that with the exception of one of them they had just started up again.
Interestingly some had been contacted by their guides after a long time without contact and told to start working again. Most had been through things like the loss of a child or a spouse in the ten to fifteen years that had passed. But three of them had suffered losses within the last year.
So,if you believe in that sort of thing spirit,or something is on the move. The general buzz(to one side of course) was that things are going to be quite amazing over the next five years. So old contacts re-established and a "new age" on it's way
We live,it would seem in exciting times.
Let's hope it is exciting for the right reasons.

This isn't the first I've heard of this actually. I know some very good mediums who gave up working through ill health or personal loss and have now been told to start working again.
It's all good as far as I'm concerned. Get rid of these so-called 'celebrity mediums' and get some of the old school back.
Shut these bloody sceptics up once and for all.

You will never shut the sceptics up.
I wonder if the old timers are still as sharp as they were. I doubt it somehow.
Perhaps it is their experience that is needed.
Time will tell.

Its the same here in Tassie I've been one of the only working psychics for years or so now - and a couple of the older ones have just popped back up which is great for me.. they had all been ill with various things and stopped work for a few years.. and now it appears they are back in form -
its exciting for me because I get to interact with them  the youngest one in the group is 67 I find them inspirational.. though i have to say none of them work as mediums they all work as psychics.....

Its happenning all over, in all sorts of areas.
People have been finding me for Reiki courses.
So many I know are looking at changing direction in their lives.
Many people I know have been through two or three months of intense change in their lives, or of changes to their thinking.
It does feel like a build up.

Perhaps we live in times of change.
If you are looking for purpose in your life where do you begin.
Who knows perhaps I might even get my robes out of the wardrobe and come out of retirement.
Can you just imagine the old grokel Hobbs trying to work and forgetting what it was he set out to do.
Don't answer that !!!!!.
It is good to see the old hands back on the scene, and I have found even more of them since starting this thread,but I feel it is far more important that younger people be encouraged (not indoctrinated) to find their full potential.

I couldn't agree more it isn't fair to constantly compare young with old - you know people change and grow when given the opportunity

it is an interesting question though..... why so many people have started their spiritual journey in the last few years...... it really does feel that something is building.....

I don't know if it's something 'building' or something falling apart, namely organised religion.
Something will have to take it's place.

you think? it seems to me that religion being organised or not is here to stay

Maybe it's that way down under but things seem to be very different up here.
Younger Jews and Muslims just don't seem to be interested in their faiths and churches are having a very difficult time getting bums on seats.
In fact, church attendance is at it's lowest ever, apparently.
