Basic breakdown of the UK's 1951 Fraudulent Mediumship act.
We have asked a trusted Lecturer
of mediumship to give a clear breakdown of this law. This is
not meant to judge non spiritualists, but this law is in
place and we are concerned by persons claiming to be
spiritualist mediums or to serve the spiritualist faith in
some shape or form blatantly breaking the law that was
brought in to protect them and others to be able to practice
their belief without hindrance!
 (14
and 15 Geo 6 c 33)
An Act to repeal the Witchcraft Act 1735 and to
make, in substitution for certain provisions of
section four of the Vagrancy Act 1824 express
provision for the punishment of persons who
fraudulently purport to act as spiritualistic
mediums or to exercise powers of telepathy,
clairvoyance or other similar powers (22 June 1951).
This was brought into force amongst other things to
enable the recognised religion and its mediums
(Spiritualists) to practice there belief without
hindrance or accusations of witchcraft.
Anyone who states they are a spiritualist medium
when they do not serve within a church or centre and
who have not trained and studied within the
spiritualist religion are breaking this law.
Do not get confused between belief and practice,
they must be a practising spiritualist medium.
Selling their wares at boot sales and market stalls
does not entitle them to use the title of
spiritualist medium.
Also being a spiritual medium is not a spiritualist
medium. If that were the case you could have
spiritual dentist, spiritual doctors the list could
go on and on and would mean absolutely nothing!
This also means Psychics are breaking this law also
and considered to be acting in a fraudulent way.
Remember Psychic ability and Mediumship are two
different things.
 1.
Punishment of fraudulent mediums, etc.
(1) Subject to the provisions of this section, any
person who:
(a) with intent to deceive purports to act as a
spiritualistic medium or to exercise any powers of
telepathy, clairvoyance or other similar powers, or
(b) in purporting to act as a spiritualistic medium
or to exercise such powers as aforesaid, uses any
fraudulent device,
shall be guilty of an offence.
Speaks for itself
really, also the explanation above is relevant to
this section, but....but the interesting part of
this section that so many break the law in so many
ways doing, realising it or not they still do it.
Here it is
"uses any fraudulent device"
As a Spiritualist medium and acting within that
capacity, and abiding by the 1951 fraudulent
mediumship law, you are not allowed under any
circumstances to hold any object in your hands what
so ever. not even a hanky, drippy nose or not! Hence
why any medium worth their salt if working on a
psychic level will place down any object they are
holding regardless and link into the spirit energy
changing the ability they are using from psychic to
mediumship. Remember one ability gets the
information the other receives it!
So remember even that little old lady standing on
your church rostrum waving that hanky around, she is
breaking the law and most probably doesn't realise
it, but she is! Think about it, how a message can be
written before hand on a hanky for use in a message
for example. This is not saying that all would do
this, but it is a precautionary measure as there are
some pathetic people out there that would do this.
That is why this law is so very strict and yet so
many break it constantly.
 (2)
A person shall not be convicted of an offence under
the foregoing subsection unless it is proved that he
acted for reward; and for the purposes of this
section a person shall be deemed to act for reward
if any money is paid, or other valuable thing given,
in respect of what he does, whether to him or to any
other person.
If an individual a
serving spiritualist medium accepts monies for there
own personal gain. They then at that point have
broken the law and deemed fraudulent mediums. To
raise funds for charity, a church basically
something other than yourself is allowed. As this is
then not personal gain.
 (3)
A person guilty of an offence under this section
shall be liable on summary conviction to a fine not
exceeding (the prescribed sum) or to imprisonment
for a tern not exceeding four months or to both such
fine and such imprisonment, or on conviction on
indictment to a fine... or to imprisonment for a
term not exceeding two years or to both such fine
and such imprisonment.
Speaks for itself
 (4)
No proceedings for an offence under this section
shall be, brought in England or Wales except by or
with the consent of the Director of Public
Prosecutions.
Basically only one
person within the country can act upon this law.
( 5)
Nothing in subsection (1) of this section shall
apply to anything done solely for the purpose of
entertainment
Created for Magicians
and Illusionists, these people you know what they
are doing is fake, you just don't know how it id
done.
This is why all these programmes such as Most
Haunted, and so on have this disclaimer FOR
ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY blazed within there
credits?
Also keep in mind if you are going to see someone
pertaining to be a medium at a show etc, if within
there title Medium they do not state they are a
spiritualist medium, on there flyers and any
publicity they must by law have this show is for
entertainment purposes only. If they do not they are
breaking this law. Because if they are not a serving
spiritualist medium, that very show is for
entertainment. which is very worrying considering
how many people attend these types of shows etc
because they have lost loved ones to the spirit
world. And so in effect they are not paying to see a
spiritualist medium, they are paying for an
entertainer!
Practising spiritualist mediums do not need to have
this banner on any flyers relating to that
demonstration, because when they are in the capacity
of a medium, they are spiritualist mediums because
regardless of Radio, TV work, lectures and classes
etc they still serve spiritualist churches and
centres. But that does not always mean the persons
on that stage with them are of the same legal
allowances or stature!
Also the Personal
gain element still is active within this. So if they
personally gain from the show etc, they then do not
have the rights to claim abstinence from this law
for being a spiritualist medium as by profiting from
their mediumship they have stepped out of the
protective box of the religious advisor role!
One last thing ..any psychic or medium that pertains
to be giving you guidance a reading and states that
if for example they are giving you a psychic
reading, Tarot , Psychometry etc and that they are
guided by spirit ARE BREAKING THE LAW. Remember the
two cannot mix at any time!
