  • Automatic Writing Circle

    Automatic Writing Circle

    The Spirit University 373 Braden Ave, Sarasota

    Come for the writing. Stay for the connection. What might happen if you stopped trying to find the right answer — and simply allowed the words to come? Automatic Writing Circle is a welcoming weekly gathering that combines automatic writing, intuitive exploration, meaningful conversation, and community connection. Each gathering begins with a gentle grounding and a fresh question or theme designed to quiet the analytical mind and help you write freely, without editing, judging, or trying to make sense of what appears. You may discover a thought, feeling, memory, image, insight, answer, or unexpected inner nudge. Sometimes what comes onto the page surprises us. Afterward, we open the circle for conversation, reflection, and connection. You are welcome to talk about what came up for you, ask questions, listen to others, or simply enjoy being among people who are exploring too. You never have to read what you've written. Share as much or as little as feels comfortable. ✨ No writing experience needed ✨ No automatic writing experience needed ✨ Beginners are warmly welcome ✨ A new theme or exploration each week ✨ Come once or return regularly ✨ Bring a journal or notebook and a pen With Victoria Ackerman and […]

  • Mediumship Development I: Awaken Your Connection to Spirit

    Mediumship Development I: Awaken Your Connection to Spirit

    The Spirit University 373 Braden Ave, Sarasota

    A Five-Week Foundational Program • Part 1 of 4 What if mediumship is not something reserved for a gifted few, but an ability that can be understood, practiced, strengthened, and developed with care? If you feel drawn to spirit communication, have begun noticing intuitive impressions, or simply want to understand how connection with the spirit world may unfold, this is where the journey begins. Join Victoria Ackerman, evidential medium, teacher, and founder of The Spirit University, for an immersive five-week program designed to help you build a strong, grounded foundation in mediumship. This is not simply a class about mediumship. You will learn it, practice it, experience it, question it, and begin discovering how Spirit communicates uniquely through you.

  • PSYCHIC PRACTICE LAB: Sharpen Your Intuition

    PSYCHIC PRACTICE LAB: Sharpen Your Intuition

    The Spirit University 373 Braden Ave, Sarasota

    IN PERSON or ONLINE What if your psychic ability isn’t something you need to “find” — but something you can strengthen through focused practice? Psychic Practice Lab is an ongoing, hands-on development experience with Chenylle Mercado for people who want to go beyond simply learning about psychic ability and actually practice using it. Each gathering is different. You may experiment with blind remote viewing, telepathy, Zener cards, energy transmission, psychometry, precognition, symbolic perception, written psychic readings, evidential mediumship exercises, and other carefully designed challenges that help you recognize how intuitive information reaches you. This is not about performing, proving yourself, or getting everything right. It is about learning to recognize your own psychic language and becoming more accurate, discerning, and confident in what you receive. What will you explore? What does a genuine psychic impression feel like for you? Do you receive through images, words, feelings, physical sensations, symbols, or sudden knowing? Can you tell the difference between a first intuitive impression and what the analytical mind adds afterward? Can you perceive information about a hidden target before it is revealed? What happens when information is intentionally transmitted from one person to another? Can you distinguish psychic information from mediumistic […]
