The idea of hearing spirits ‘speaking softly’ is an intriguing one and super exciting to contemplate. The possible reasons are many and what fun to be in a place of sleuthing it out for yourself, as part of your path of discovery. Each connection to spirit is unique to the spirit and sitter but also your own journey of development. There are no single answers to any one idea. Here’s a few thoughts you might consider.
‘Quietness’ may be part of the message a spirit is hoping to communicate. The spirit may have been a timid person in life. As translator, it makes sense to pass along the quiet to your sitter to see if they recognize the spirit through this way of representing themselves. Eg. “The spirit who has stepped forward appears to be very soft spoken; does this resonate with you?” Prior to this, you may wish to ask the spirit the same question. “You appear very soft spoken. Is this how you prefer to be known?” If soft-spoken is the message they wish to relay, once acknowledge, they will likely become easier to ‘hear’ because that part of the message has been relayed. Does that make sense?
As part of ‘listening’ try reflecting on the energy of the quiet with an aim to articulate its nature. Is the spirit portraying someone who is soft-spoken? Hesitant? Shy? Reluctant? Unsure? Hiding something? Remorseful? Open your heart to the specifics in the energy and reflect back with your spirit and/or the sitter.
Another possibility is the spirit is holding an energy that reflects the relationship they had with your sitter. Perhaps the sitter had an argument with the spirit prior to their passing. The spirit and the sitter may have had unresolved issues, a rocky relationship. On earth, the spirit may have been critical of the sitter over the person’s lifetime. In which case, the quiet may be the spirit in a place of remorse, reflection, regret with their new knowledge of the legacy of their earthly behaviour toward the sitter. The spirit may be in a place of quiet, before apologizing for their poor behaviour. At the same time, the sitter may have a block to the communication, because the sitter is shouting in their soul selves, “I am angry at you,” Or, “You disappointed me greatly in my lifetime.” You will want to breathe into the energy present between spirit and sitter as part of communicating.
Equally, there may be some unrequited love, or an affair between spirit and sitter on earth, that the spirit would like to quietly, lovingly acknowledge knowing the sitter is shy about the conversation having never spoken of it to anyone. Try to gently tease out the nature of the quiet with these ideas in mind.
Here’s another angle. The quiet may be a reflection of a sitter who is working through a bit of mistrust in the process of Mediumship. The ‘quiet’ may be a reflection of the sitter being blocked where the spirit is respectfully holding back a little, on behalf of the one they are appearing to.
You may wish to invite the sitter to take some time to meditate; to surround themselves in love and light, and to open their heart to receive communication, as you sense a block in the process. After all, you are the go between. The relationship is a three-way process.
You can invite your sitter to reach out to their loved one to let them know, they give permission to you, the medium, to communicate on their behalf. Once the spirit is assured of this truth, they may communicate with greater strength. This also gives the sitter the opportunity to let go of their hesitancy to allow you to do your job. Lol
Whatever you sense in the process, it is always a good idea to hold a combination of gratitude, acknowledge and invitation. You might say, “Thank you for stepping forward. I am grateful for the gift of sharing your words. You appear (be as specific as possible) soft-spoken (frustrated, reluctant, distant) in your communication. Please know I work in the light, for the light, to the highest good of all. I invite you to step fully forward, so I might share with confidence, the message you wish to relay.”
Best of luck in expanding your connection to spirit!
