Mediumship

Mediumship is the alleged ability to communicate with spirits or entities from beyond the physical world, often through a human intermediary known as a medium. It has roots in ancient spiritual practices and has been a focus of both folklore and parapsychological research, with believers asserting genuine contact and skeptics attributing experiences to psychological or deceptive causes.

Historically, mediumship became prominent during the 19th-century Spiritualist movement, where séances and trance states were used to convey messages from the deceased. While scientific consensus largely regards mediumship as lacking empirical support, it remains a powerful cultural phenomenon linked to after-death communication, clairvoyance, and channeling.
