" A Day In The Life Of A Psychic Medium" (August 5th, 2005)
Hello Kula Magazine Readers,
I am honored and proud to have been asked by the Editor of this Internet magazine to contribute articles to it's site. In the decade that I have been
doing my work as a Psychic Medium, I have done many interviews on radio and in publication but have never wrote an actual article for any press.
I hope this story which is my own personal story will not only educate you but inspire you in some way as well. In the future I will write a variety of articles that pertain to Mediumship and the After-life.
I was born and raised in Brooklyn, N.Y. As a small child my passion and love was music. Whether listening to it or writing songs and performing it, I ‘Know’ it opened me up to another consciousness or dimension that would later not only become a major part of my life but become my career.
Growing up I was very in-tuned to things that most people couldn't explain or comprehend. Whether it was "Knowing" who was calling on the phone before even it rang to seeing Spirits and making predictions, little did even I “Know“, I had a very special and unique gift and ability. I knew in some way that I was different than the kids I was friends with. Not that I was any better or less than them just different.
As I progressed in to my teen years, I spent a lot of my time focusing on making music even though I still felt a strong Spiritual connection from a higher place of myself. I had many personal experiences throughout my life at this point that made me realize that no matter whatever I would end up doing in my life that this connection to the Spirit World was going to play a major part in the evolvement of my soul growth.
At the age of 20, My very dear friend, Lucy who was like an Aunt to me and got me my very first job working at a Pharmacy had suddenly and unexpectedly passed away. The ironic thing was that I spoke to her on the phone a half hour before she passed in to Spirit. She sounded happy and upbeat as she always did. How can I have not seen that she was about to make her journey home? I realized later on that I was not meant to. The days and the following weeks after she passed away, I would see her in the bedroom of my Apartment. She’d tell me she was just fine and happy and not to be sad. She would have me write things that ended up becoming predictions to things that were about to occur in my life at that time.
It wasn’t long after that I began seeing Spirits around people whom I didn’t know, whereas before hand the Spirits I did see were my own Family, Guides and Angels. In 1994, I went to visit my Father in Florida and that’s when it all started coming together.
I was being introduced to all kinds of people involved in metaphysics. I was fascinated to say the least. I had not known of Spiritual minded people or New Age stores in New York. Meanwhile all I was thinking about was making a career in music. I went back to NYC and felt very out of place with myself. I felt something deep inside of me was changing but I couldn’t explain what it was. I was in a semi-known band at the time with upcoming shows and I remember being in rehearsals for these shows and even though my guitar playing was good and up to par, I mentally wasn’t there were as before I was. The other members of the band noticed a change in me and actually thought I was abusing substance in which I wasn’t. I was out there somewhere outside of myself and was on a high but it was a Spiritual High.
Sadly enough they couldn’t understand nor did I and that led to me getting fired not in person but on the telephone. As a musician, I can say a part of my ego was blown but in another light I was elated to be released from it. At the same time I was working at Barnes & Noble in New York City, ironically in the New Age/Religion/Philosophy & Mythology sections of that store when all I really wanted was to work in the Music Department.
Looking back I “Know”, A higher power had bigger plans for me. So with all that said and done in 1995, I began conducting readings full time for friends and neighbors and it kept building from there until I moved to Florida in 1997 where it really started taking off. I was getting offers to be on TV, Radio, Publications, Seminars, you name it I have been offered it.
As a Medium people ask me all the time if I see “dead people” everywhere I go and am I able to live a normal life. First of all I don’t see “dead people” everywhere I go. I only see them for others when I am working or really am meant to. I have my own life to live and enjoy just like anyone else. I don’t think anyone who has a career is playing their role 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and if they are than that’s their choice not mine. I never thought I lived a normal life nor know what exactly a normal life is suppose to be. I just live in the moment of right here - right now and try to do my very best each day first and foremost for myself, my loved ones and for the people I read for. People also ask me if I believe I am talking to Spirits and I tell them all the time the answer is no. They seemed shocked by my answer until I tell them that I don’t believe it, I “Know” I am talking to Spirits. There is a very big difference in Believing and in Knowing.
I do enjoy my work in helping people with their loss by bringing them peace and closure and teaching and educating them about Spirit .It’s not a path or career that I would have dreamed of nor is the easiest either, it is a very big responsibility and you have to have the compassion and patience in working with people who are grieving and looking for answers.
I “Know” that Mediumship is not a quick fix or cure for the bereavement process though I am honored to be an integral part of the process of communicating to the after-life. I am just a small part of it. A person’s loved one, Angels & Guides are the key players in communicating with me and I am just the messenger for them. Without them I couldn’t possibly do it. I owe it all to them as well as to the people I read for.
I end this article with a thought to ponder on for all of you with this lyric taken from my song “Clouds Disappear“ that is from my soon to be released 2nd music CD “Glenn Kidd- Satori“.
“You and me, two branches from one tree, we are a nexus, we‘re not separate”.
In my next article I will write about how I communicate with Spirits and how you can do so as well. Thanks for reading. Till we meet again…
Peace, Love & Blessings,
