Exploring Automatic Writing: A Unique Mediumship Technique
Automatic writing is a fascinating form of mediumship where individuals allow entities from other realms to communicate through them by writing or typing messages. This skill, which can be acquired with practice, involves the spirit temporarily taking control of the person's hand to convey their messages. It is generally recommended that experienced mediums engage in automatic writing rather than beginners. The medium may not always be aware of which spirit is communicating or the language being used, as spirits may write in unfamiliar languages. Typically, spirits only write, not draw, and the resulting handwriting differs significantly from that of the person being used as the vessel. Additionally, such writings often lack punctuation and capitalization.
Some individuals may unknowingly possess the ability to perform automatic writing. For instance, they might awaken to find messages written on paper they left beside their bed. While there are myths suggesting figures like Jesus practiced automatic writing, no concrete evidence supports this. Though some view automatic writing as a beneficial tool for connecting with loved ones, it can also be daunting and risky, as not all entities are benevolent. Learning this practice requires careful consideration and understanding of the potential outcomes.
Techniques for Automatic Writing
- Free Flow of Information: Allow the process to unfold naturally without overthinking the content.
- Handling Multiple Entities: If more than one spirit attempts to communicate, request that they take turns, and always seek their names.
- Verification: Check the accuracy of the information received.
- Comfort Levels: If you feel uneasy, stop immediately. The rightness of this tool for you will become evident quickly.

Beginning Your Automatic Writing Journey
- Preparation: Sit comfortably at your computer, ensuring you are free from distractions. Inform others that you need private time if necessary. Interestingly, being slightly tired might enhance the experience.
- Relaxation: Clear your mind of any clutter. Focus on feeling your muscles relax, especially in your neck, arms, shoulders, and face.
- Communication with Your Guide: Mentally invite a specific guide to communicate through you. It's advisable to work with one guide at a time, and you may either choose the guide or leave it to their discretion. Note that not all guides use automatic writing.
- Initial Interaction: Begin the session by typing the date and then ask, "Hello. What is your name?" Proceed with simple questions about your guide and their connection to you.
- Typing Process: Avoid pausing to think; let your fingers move freely on the keyboard. Errors in punctuation, spacing, or grammar are unimportant and can be corrected later.
- Progression and Comfort: Gradually build comfort with your guide. Initially, limit the duration of your writing sessions to feel more at ease.
- Advancing Your Questions: As you grow accustomed to the process, begin asking more complex questions. However, avoid personal questions until you have established trust with the spirit.
- Developing the Practice: Over time, increase the complexity of your questions, exploring topics like global issues or spiritual matters. Only delve into personal inquiries when you are confident in the relationship established with the spirit.
Remember, automatic writing improves with practice, and it should be approached with an open mind and a willingness to explore the unknown. Always save your sessions for future reference.
