INDEPENDENT DIRECT VOICE MEDIUMSHIP

If you ever hear someone say: "Well, nobody has come back from the dead to tell us what it's like". Tell them they are wrong.

Lots of people who have died have been able to have extended conversations
in their own voice with their loved ones through an independent direct voice medium.


Is it the same as mental mediumship? NO. In mental mediumship only the medium can hear the voice of the spirit usually inside their head.

Is this the same as channelling?
NO. When a person channels, you can still only hear the medium's voice.

Is it the same as trance mediumship? NO. In deep trance mediumship the medium is unconscious. A spirit takes over the medium's body but in most cases there is no proof to the audience that it not the medium speaking.



SO WHAT DOES HAPPEN IN INDEPENDENT DIRECT VOICE MEDIUMSHIP?

The Spirit team is able to create an artificial voice box outside the medium's body made with ectoplasm - a substance taken from the medium's body. In the photo on the left you can see the ectoplasmic voicebox on the left shoulder of medium Leslie Flint. Below anre voice boxes in the shoulders of Mina Crandon and Jack Webber.








Is it the same as trumpet mediumship?
Not exactly. The spirits can also construct a voice box inside a "seance trumpet"- a cone which can amplify the sound. The trumpet remains connected to the medium with ectoplasm.

The trumpet can be moved around the circle and placed against a particular sitter's ear for a private message. But the voices or a trumpet medium are usually not as loud as when the voice box is independent and able to be moved anywhere in the room without a trumpet.
If you are sitting with a physical medium and a trumpet comes to you, you must be careful not to touch it because it is connected to the medium and if you brush it aside you could injure the medium.



US Medium Leonard Stott





Ectoplasm covered Leonard Stott, who is in a deep trance situation in a chair with arms for safety, where the Spirit World is producing ectoplasm, which is being used for trumpet phenomena. This photograph is showing ectoplasm coming out of the Medium's ears, solar plexus area, and possibly out of the skin of the hands, the trumpet is being lifted up by the ectoplasm structure ready to go to a sitter and talk to them. These sort of photographs are normally taken by time lapse photography. When trying this sort of a photo shot, experimentation is needed and a need for the person to look carefully into the past experiments.

Is trumpet mediumship the same as physical mediumship?

A physical medium is one who can be used by spirit to produce phenomena which can be seen, heard or felt by others who are present. Some physical mediums produce raps and taps. Some produce apports. Some produce materialised hands or spirit lights or their faces change into the face of the spirit (transfiguration). Some produce full materialisations. Some produce independent direct voice. And some produce of all the above at different times.



Below is a list of some independent direct voice and trumpet mediums who lived and worked in the USA that we have been able to find information about.

Please email books@victorzammit.com if you had experiences with any of these mediums and or can suggest additional resources.
