A spiritualist's session is often referred to as a SEANCE. A SEANCE is a gathering of people who come together to communicate with spirits. During a SEANCE, a spiritualist will attempt to contact the spirit world and receive messages from the deceased. The spiritualist may use various methods such as mediumship, divination, or trance-like states to facilitate communication with the spirits. The spiritualist may also use tools such as tarot cards, crystals, or other objects to help them connect with the spirit world. The goal of a SEANCE is to provide comfort and guidance to those in attendance.
