The Psychic Medium Hall Of Fame: 3 Memorable Psychic Mediums Of All Time

By Tana Hoy

Since back in the days, a psychic medium has always been recognized for their unique ability to connect with the spirit world. A psychic medium has been sought for general guidance of the powerful seances he can carry out.

Parapsychology studies show that there is quite a lengthy list of psychic mediums who have made milestones through the years. However, only 3 names have made a gigantic impact on history. These 3 psychic mediums are Daniel Douglas Homes, Mina Crandon, and Leonora Piper.

The 3 Popular Psychic Mediums Of All Time

DANIEL DOUGLAS HOMES: "THE PSYCHIC MEDIUM WHO COULD FLY"

Daniel Douglas Homes is a Scottish Spiritualist and he is known as the most famous psychic medium of all time. This well-know physical medium has the reported ability to levitate to a variety of heights, apart from his talent to speak with the spirits of those who have passed on.

Even as an infant, Homes showed very powerful psychic abilities. His cradle would rock by itself, as if invisible hands were moving it! On top of that, there are also a number of accounts during his childhood wherein he foretold numerous events which later on materialized.

Homes spent most of his life on the road and sharing with the world his gifts as a psychic medium by conducting seances out in the open and in public areas. But the peak of his career as a psychic medium was during one particular seance conducted in Connecticut in August 1852 where he went against the laws of gravity and levitated into the air!

MINA "MARGERY" CRANDON: "THE PSYCHIC MEDIUM WHO WAS HOUDINI'S GREATEST NEMESIS"

Mina Crandon, who was popularly known as "Margery Crandon", was a Boston psychic medium who got entangled with one of the most bitter controversies in American psychic research. She is said to be the greatest rival of famous magician Harry Houdini.

Margery did not show any signs of any psychic ability in the early years of her life. However, one particular visit to a psychic revealed that she possessed supernatural powers. It was foretold that a laughing young man was attempting to contact her from the spiritual realm. Later on, that person turned out to be her brother Walter, who had passed away in 1911 in a railway accident. Eventually, Walter became her spirit guide, and they hand in hand took on worldwide fame.

LEONORA PIPER: "THE ONE WHITE CROW"

Leonora Evelina Simonds Piper was considered one of the most impressive trance mediums in recorded history. Leonora was married to Professor William James of Harvard, one of America's greatest psychologist - philosophers. Her husband believed that she was an honest Spiritualist psychic medium unlike others, and he referred to her as the "One White Crow."

The famous instance that started of Leonora Piper's career as a psychic medium was in 1884 after her father-in-law took her for a medical consultation with J.R. Cook, a blind clairvoyant who was making a reputation for psychic cures. Leonora Piper lost consciousness at Cook's touch and entered a trance of her own. Later on, she attended a home circle sitting with him and again entered another trance. This time, she produced a message for one of the other persons in the session -- who considered it to be the most accurate message he had ever received during his 30 year interest in Spiritualism.

These people are just 3 of the many renowned psychic mediums who have made names in history. Exactly like everything else in this world, history is created every day; and who knows -- maybe at this very instant there is another powerful psychic medium out there creating history as we speak!
