Trance mediumship is a practice in which a person, known as a medium, enters a deep state of altered consciousness to communicate with spirits or other entities. During this state, the medium may allow these entities to take control of their body and voice, conveying messages to those present. This practice is often associated with spiritualism and is believed to facilitate communication with the deceased. The process typically involves the medium relaxing and focusing their mind, often using techniques like meditation. Trance mediums may provide insights, guidance, or healing messages, and their sessions can vary in length and intensity.
