Hello everyone!
And thanks to Tom for pointing me to where to post a debate topic that had been opened elsewhere but which you have surely deleted.
The question asked was, I believe, whether one is a medium innately or whether one can become one by studying clairvoyance.
I found an email that a psychic had written to me and I am copying it here, as I found that it perfectly answers the question. I am only removing what is off-topic.
The truth about clairvoyance.
Clairvoyance exists in each of us. Everyone can see, provided they first desire to do so. Of course, some are more gifted than others at the outset. Everyone can play football, but few will play for the French national team.
For clairvoyance, it's the same thing.
The ability of clairvoyance can come from a hereditary gift inherited from one's parents or grandparents.
However, other individuals develop clairvoyant or magnetic abilities without any prior cases in their family.
Certain factors predispose one to clairvoyance: hypersensitivity, a difficult childhood, or the experience of traumatic events (the death of a loved one, an accident, illness) that reveal the gift.
The gift of clairvoyance is based on an intuition present in each of us but which, in some people, is pushed to the extreme for natural or accidental reasons.
But in many cases, this gift must be revealed through regular practice based on exercises.
A good psychic does not ask questions. He simply states what he sees. He may use a tool (crystal ball, tarot, numerology, I Ching, coffee grounds) or perform pure clairvoyance without a tool and receive direct flashes, that is, images of the client’s future that remain in his brain for only a few seconds.
As far as I’m concerned, the gift is not hereditary. It’s something I developed after the death of a loved one. But it took me a lot of practice to develop this intuition in order to master it and have flashes.

Not everything is written in our destiny; free will exists, making us responsible for the decisions we make and bear for a certain period. Sometimes, this can turn out to be dramatic in many respects. It is best to avoid experiences that can be traumatic and leave indelible marks.
Perceiving your situation in light of the trials of your life and suggesting a way out. It is up to you to find your own truth. One must be careful with clairvoyance, which, if misused, will make you dependent because you will no longer be able to recenter yourself on your own. We, psychics, project you into a future that is not yet ready, and risk making you act outside of your own judgment and of who you are. You simply need to keep YOUR truth within you, prioritizing a listening to “the little inner voice” that will always guide you.
That, in my opinion, answers several questions raised in different threads.
If I haven't trimmed enough, Tom, I'm counting on you, just as I am if you find a more appropriate title. Thank you.
Kind regards
