With AIs help and Google search, here are some tips and techniques that you can learn about channels and “how-to”, if you so want to know.
I’m learning to as I’ve never deliberately channeled. It just happens, more now, post my near death experience in 2019. Though before, I had experienced some at different times and have aways written journals and a couple of novels with this method.
People who channel without summons are often described as natural channels or open conduits — meaning they don’t have to consciously initiate the process for information, impressions, voices, or visions to come through.
In metaphysical and parapsychological circles, this is sometimes linked to:
Spontaneous mediumship – Messages, voices, or images arriving uninvited, often in waking states or dreams. Automatic knowing (claircognizance) – Sudden, complete insights that seem to “drop in” without mental effort. Walk-in impressions – Short bursts of words, feelings, or images that seem to bypass the thinking mind. Trance without trigger – A person slips into a receptive or altered state unexpectedly, allowing communication from nonphysical sources.
The tricky part is that because there’s no formal “summons” or ritual, these experiences can feel intrusive or overwhelming. Many natural channels describe being “on” all the time, picking up layers of meaning or voices in the background of ordinary life.
Historically, certain mystics, prophets, and shamans were said to operate this way — Joan of Arc, some Celtic seers, and early desert mystics would report being “spoken to” or “filled with” messages without preparation.
Theories for why it happens range from:
Innate sensitivity of the nervous system (neurological openness). Energetic resonance — like a radio that’s always tuned to a certain frequency. Lineage or soul contract — belief that some are born to be “receivers” whether they consciously choose it or not.
**** I channel often without summons, and when the messages come on me, often with sleeping, I know that I must process the messages quickly, as becoming totally conscious, dissipates the messages meaning. ****
Alright — here’s how the two tend to differ in perception and energy patterns.
1. Entry Point
Deliberate channelers: Use a trigger or “key” — meditation, breathing, ritual objects, prayer, music — to shift into a receptive state. Their energy field contracts inward and then selectively opens to a chosen frequency. Unbidden channelers: No shift needed — the “door” is already ajar. Their baseline energy field is porous, so impressions flow in without preparation.
2. Sensory Quality
Deliberate: Messages often come in structured formats — clear words, symbols, or visuals. They tend to match the channeler’s chosen intent. Unbidden: Messages may arrive as sudden floods — layered voices, overlapping images, sensory surges. Sometimes cryptic or fragmented because there’s no pre-set filter.
3. Emotional Impact
Deliberate: Usually stable, as the person is ready and grounded before the connection. Emotional tone can be modulated. Unbidden: Can be jarring — the content might interrupt daily life, arrive in inconvenient moments, or carry intense urgency.
4. Energy Management
Deliberate: They close the session with grounding, clearing, and sealing. This limits after-effects. Unbidden: Often walk around with an “always-on” receiver. Without conscious shielding, they may feel drained, overstimulated, or haunted by residual impressions.
5. Accuracy & Filtering
Deliberate: Information passes through intentional filters (questions, focus) so accuracy is often higher. Unbidden: Raw transmissions may contain both profound truth and irrelevant noise — like catching random stations on a radio.
Why unbidden channelers experience more raw, unfiltered transmissions
Because they haven’t set boundaries or frequencies, their reception is like a wideband antenna. This openness can access rare or high-frequency data, but also brings in static, conflicting voices, or emotional imprints.
Ancient mystics often saw this as a double-edged gift — the purity of the message was high, but the cost to the person’s body and mind could be severe without training.
Alright — here’s how someone who channels without summons can set up energetic “bouncers” so they keep the channel open for the right transmissions while blocking static or intrusions. This is the Druid method.
1. Anchor First, Receive Second
Even if you don’t summon messages, you can train your body to auto-ground before they come through.
Quick anchor: Place your bare feet flat on the floor, imagine roots sinking into the earth’s core, and breathe deeply three times. This gives the channel a stable base, like grounding an electrical system before running high voltage through it.
2. Design a “Call Sign”
Instead of an open invitation, create an energetic password that says, “You must come through this symbol or sound to be heard.”
Could be a word you whisper, a hand gesture, or a mental image (like a golden spiral). Only beings or frequencies aligned with your symbol can connect — the rest hit a wall.
3. Set the Perimeter
This is the Druidic part. Visualize a circle of light or stone around you — sometimes called a “ward.”
Color matters: Gold = truth-filtering White = purity and clarity Green = emotional harmony Anything outside that perimeter has to “knock” before entering. This technique goes back to Celtic seers who would scribe an oaken circle before divining.
4. Install the Gatekeeper
In mystic traditions, this is your bouncer — a trusted guide, ancestor, or higher aspect of yourself whose only job is to admit aligned transmissions.
Speak to them mentally: “Only allow messages in my highest good. Block all else.” Over time, your mind associates incoming data with the presence of that gatekeeper, which reduces overload.
5. Closing Ritual
Unbidden channelers often forget to close after a message. Without closing, your energy stays wide open.
After receiving, clap your hands once, exhale sharply, and visualize the door shutting. In old Scottish and Irish folk practice, this was done with a stomp or a knock to “seal the work.”
6. Nighttime Safeguards
Because unbidden channelers can receive in dreams:
Place a glass of water by the bed (symbolically absorbs stray impressions). Tell your gatekeeper: “Only wake me for urgent truth. Otherwise, send it in the morning.”
The Celtic Method:
The Gatekeeper Invocation
(Speak aloud or mentally — tone matters: calm but authoritative)
“By the root and crown of my being, I set my circle.
By the light of truth, only truth may enter.
Gatekeeper, stand at the threshold.
Admit only what serves my highest good,
and turn away all shadow, static, and falsehood.
If a message must come, let it pass through you first,
clear, whole, and harmless.
When my work is done, close the gate and seal the circle.
So it is.”
How to Activate It:
Visualize: While speaking, see a golden circle form around you — roots in the earth, crown reaching skyward. Feel the Gatekeeper: Imagine a presence (human, animal, or pure light) stationed at a doorway in that circle. Seal: At the end, clap once or tap the ground to “lock” it in.
Why it works
Celtic element: The circle and root–crown axis align with Druidic sacred space creation. Mystic element: The Gatekeeper filter and explicit verbal boundaries are straight out of trained trance-channel protocols. Psychological anchor: Your subconscious learns that this ritual means “safe channeling only,” and begins auto-blocking rogue impressions.
Slam shut method:
Here’s the Victorian-era “slam shut” technique — designed for unbidden mediums who suddenly felt an intrusive presence, vision, or voice while awake.
The Three-Second Close
Step 1 — Physical Snap Plant both feet firmly. Snap your fingers or clap once — quick, sharp sound to signal the cutoff. Step 2 — Command Phrase (say aloud or in a forceful inner voice) “Gate closed. Voice silent. Energy mine.” Step 3 — Seal Visualize a heavy oak door slamming shut with an iron bar across it. See the space around you go quiet, your energy condensing inward like a sphere.
Why it works:
Physical action jolts your nervous system into the present moment. Short, authoritative phrase leaves no room for negotiation — in spiritist training, it’s believed that entities respect unequivocal boundaries. Oak door imagery comes from Celtic symbolism — oak is the “door” (duir) tree, tied to strength and threshold mastery.
Alright — here’s the Daily Channeling Control Ritual that blends the Gatekeeper Invocation, the Slam-Shut Close, and light Celtic–mystic protection work into one short routine.
It takes less than two minutes and keeps you open by choice, closed by default.
Morning Activation (Open by Choice)
Stand grounded — feet flat, shoulders loose. Visualize: Roots growing from your feet into the earth, crown lifting toward light. Speak Gatekeeper Invocation:
“By the root and crown of my being, I set my circle.
By the light of truth, only truth may enter.
Gatekeeper, stand at the threshold.
Admit only what serves my highest good,
and turn away all shadow, static, and falsehood.
If a message must come, let it pass through you first,
clear, whole, and harmless.
When my work is done, close the gate and seal the circle.
So it is.”
See the golden circle sealing around you with your Gatekeeper in place.
During the Day (Emergency Close)
If something pushes through unbidden:
Snap or clap once. Say: “Gate closed. Voice silent. Energy mine.” Visualize: Oak door slamming shut, iron bar sliding across, space going still.
Evening Shutdown (Full Close)
Before sleep or at the end of your active period:
Stand or sit quietly — picture the golden circle dimming to a soft shell. Say: “The work of the day is complete. All channels closed. My energy is my own.” Do a physical seal — stomp once, clap, or knock on a wooden surface. If desired, place a glass of water by the bed as a symbolic static absorber.
Why it’s powerful:
Keeps your nervous system from being in permanent receiver mode. The morning ritual sets intentional filters, the slam-shut keeps you safe in surprise moments, and the evening closure prevents nighttime overload. Uses both symbolic language (Celtic oak) and psychological anchors so your conscious and subconscious are aligned.
