Magician to Mystic: A Mediumistic Path to a Spiritual Life

Why I recommend it

Robertson and James explore mediumship as part of a spiritual life. Drawing on teachings, mythology, and personal stories, they invite readers to consider the inner development that goes along with intuitive practice.

What stayed with me

Spiritual practice asks for patience and attention. The idea of bringing that attention into everyday life gives these questions somewhere to live beyond an unusual or powerful experience.

Who it’s useful for

Readers interested in mediumship, mysticism, and developing a spiritual practice. Especially those curious about the traditions and ideas behind the intuitive arts.

A tension or limitation

The authors write from within a mediumistic tradition and use its spiritual language. Readers new to that world may want to take their time with the concepts and follow the questions that feel most meaningful to them.
