Is there a relationship between mediumship and obsession?


The proposed question is the theme developed by our collaborator Paulo da Silva Neto Sobrinho in the Special that illustrates the present edition with the title “Who suffers obsession would be a medium?” The answer that the writer himself presents in his article is affirmative, that is, if a person is obsessed, of course he is a medium, even if he does not have a specific task to be accomplished in this area. It is important, however, to know the arguments that the author of the article gathered to reach a similar conclusion. The Special is one of the highlights of this issue.

Another highlight is the interview that the current vice-president of Geepe (Paulo and Estêvão Spiritist Studies Group), Pedro Lúcio Pereira Girio Moreira, gave to our collaborator Paula Kloser, who has been living in Switzerland for some time. He was born in East Timor, but has been living in Switzerland for many years, our interviewee participates there, in the role of Secretary, of the board of the Swiss Spiritist Federation (Fesuisse).

On a day like today (February 20), in the year 1822, Mother Joanna Angélica de Jesus, considered the first heroine of the epic of the Independence of Brazil, died in Salvador (BA), murdered when preventing the invasion of the Convent of Nossa Senhora da Conceição. da Lapa by Portuguese soldiers. The aforementioned heroine was, as it is well known, Joana de Cusa, one of the martyrs of early Christianity, and is known to all of us today as Joanna de Ângelis, mentor of the orator and medium Divaldo Franco.
