Entangled Realities: Quantum Physics, Mediumship, and the Mysteries of Connection

In a recent study, scientists have measured the speed of quantum entanglement for the first time, challenging previous assumptions that it happens instantaneously. Using attosecond precision (as in a billionth of a billionth of a second), researchers tracked electron interactions, revealing new insights into quantum dynamics.

Entanglement plays a key role in quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and even future communication systems. Quantum teleportation—where the state of one particle can be transmitted to another without physically moving it—is based on this principle.

I’ve always been fascinated by quantum physics. Keeping in mind that while my academic background is not in physics, the ideas and theories surrounding quantum realms are to me something straight out of Harry Potter, magical in nature. I suppose that there was a part of me, maybe a subconscious part of me that was drawn to this field because of what I had not yet experienced, but would later in life.

While largely speculative and not yet scientifically validated, connections may exist between quantum physics and mediumship. Quantum entanglement and the concept of a universal quantum field might provide a physical basis for the experiences of mediumship. Hear me out. Quantum entanglement for example shows how particles can be interconnected and communicate over vast distances, defying traditional physics. It is possible then to imagine that quantum entanglement, where two particles become linked and share the same fate, regardless of location, could provide a basis for understanding how energies in spiritual traditions might maintain a connection across vast distances. This idea suggests that the "entangled" states of the medium and the entity could be like entangled particles, influencing and communicating with each other instantaneously (or virtually so).

Keeping in mind that even within quantum physics, many questions remain unanswered, and the possibility of consciousness playing a role in quantum phenomena is a topic of ongoing debate. Some may easily dismiss ideas like the one in this post, but I like to remind myself that humanity once believed the world was flat—until we gained the means to prove otherwise.
