What is the difference between a psychic and a medium?
Psychic refers to someone able to receive information through extra sensory perception. Psychic ability is often referred to as our “sixth sense”.
Medium is a psychic who is able to communicate and interface with spirits in other dimensions. Every medium is a psychic but not all psychics are mediums.
What senses do psychics and mediums use to give a reading?
