Trust, Growth, And Connection: Why You Need A Mediumship

Development Circle By Rev. Colleen Irwin

Mediumship is a journey of growth, practice, and deepening connection with Spirit. Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner, an emerging facilitator, or a beginner, being part of a Mediumship Development Circle offers invaluable support and fosters an environment where trust and confidence are built. Mediumship development is not linear—it’s a spiral. You’ll return to the same concepts from a different perspective, each time with more depth and understanding.


For the Beginner: A Foundation of Trust and Learning

Starting as a beginner can feel overwhelming, but a development circle offers a safe space to explore your abilities without fear of judgment. Trust is a key component of this journey. Trust in yourself, trust in Spirit, and trust in the group. In a circle, beginners are surrounded by people who share their experiences, which helps foster confidence and openness.


The spiral nature of development means that you’ll keep returning to key foundational concepts, such as grounding, protection, and interpreting signs. But with each revisit, your understanding deepens, and your trust in Spirit grows stronger. The support and feedback from the circle build trust not just in your own abilities, but in the collective energy of the group.


For the Experienced Practitioner: Growth Through Giving and Revisiting

For experienced practitioners, development circles provide an opportunity to give back while continuing your own journey of growth. Even after years of practice, returning to foundational concepts like energy management or intuitive development brings new insights. You’ll find yourself revisiting these areas with fresh eyes, discovering deeper layers of understanding.


Trust plays a significant role at this stage, too. Trust in your abilities is reinforced as you mentor and guide others. By sharing your wisdom and watching others grow, your own connection with Spirit deepens. The circle becomes a space where you not only continue to develop,  but also help others build the same trust in their own gifts.


For the Facilitator: Building Trust and a Safe Space for Growth

As a facilitator, you play a pivotal role in creating an environment where trust thrives. A key part of your responsibility is building a space where each person—no matter their level—feels valued, safe, and supported. Trust within the circle begins with the facilitator, who sets the tone for openness, respect, and inclusivity.


You’ll also experience personal growth as a facilitator. Revisiting foundational topics with your group strengthens your connection to these concepts, and the trust you build with circle members enhances the collective energy. Your role is not just to teach, but to create an atmosphere of trust where Spirit can move freely, and participants can explore their abilities without hesitation.


Not All Circles Are Equal: Finding the Right Fit

It’s important to acknowledge that not all development circles are created equal. The quality of the circle depends on the facilitator, the structure, and the commitment of its members. Some circles are highly structured, led by experienced facilitators who provide clear boundaries and guidance, while others may be more casual with varying levels of support.


Trust is essential when finding the right circle. A well-led circle will build trust among its members, encouraging everyone to open up and share without fear of judgment. If you don’t feel a strong sense of trust in the circle, it might not be the right fit. The best circles foster trust and create a space where everyone feels safe to grow.


The Spiral of Collective Energy and Trust

One of the most powerful aspects of a Mediumship Development Circle is the collective energy that develops over time. As members work together, trust is built not only in themselves but in the group as a whole. This trust is the foundation for deeper spiritual exploration and growth.


The spiral nature of development means that the circle will continually revisit core concepts, each time gaining a deeper understanding. With each revisit, the trust in Spirit and in each other grows, enhancing the circle’s collective energy. This shared trust allows for more profound spiritual connections and a heightened sense of community.


The Spiral Path of Mediumship Development

Mediumship development is not a straight line; it’s a spiral that continually brings you back to core concepts with new perspectives and greater trust. Whether you are a beginner building trust in your abilities, an experienced practitioner deepening your connection with Spirit, or a facilitator creating a safe space for others to grow, a Mediumship Development Circle provides the support and trust needed for personal and collective growth.


But remember, not all circles are the same. Trust your instincts when finding the right fit. Seek a circle that nurtures growth, builds trust, and creates a safe, supportive environment. The right circle will help you spiral upward in your development, offering both challenges and support as you continue your journey.
