Me and Pearl
As most of you know I am an animal communicator and I recently wrote about the story of me and my horse Miss Saskia. This story elicited many questions about what animal communication is and this post is what I have learnt about animal communication from the animals themselves.
Animal communication is not a trick and it's not a gift that is possible for a said few. Communicating with animals is part of our DNA - we can all do this. The ability to hone this skill as hunter gatherers would have been very important during times when we were more connected to the natural world. As hunters having a 6th sense about animal mind and indeed being able to coerce an animal to sustain life was imperative. As humans moved through the different cycles of so called evolution certain abilities were used less and thus became what we can term as latent. I do feel that it much more complex than this and would require a complete post on understanding ego development and more on spirituality (perhaps for another post!). Suffice to say that animal communication in my view is equated to the stillness of life. Singularity. The point where one is calm and able to let go of 'knowns', let go of the need to know everything and project what we already know upon the world around us. It gets pretty boring when we do this because we don't leave enough room for ourselves to learn and explore. Indeed, life begins to lose it's colors and everything begins to take a black and white hue. The only thing is that nothing in life is black and white. Nothing.
As you also know from my posts I do like research and science. Mostly I like unconventional science - researching what we don't know in the material world. This of course is much harder to do given the lack of mechanistic methods to test validity. Our science is a material science and has not reached the point where it can begin to test and include the non-material. It is often difficult to marry the intuitive and the scientific but it is possible. Interestingly enough, for science to begin it's process one is nudged by an intuitive understanding or revelation (that intuitive hunch). So in my communications if an animal shows me something that I do not know about I look to see if there is any corroborating research - the animals have taught me a great deal indeed. But I digress....
I define animal communication as the flow of an energy signature between beings. This energy signature is based on the frequency of the animal and the ability to tap into and connect with this is the key. This requires practice. Without the stillness there is no possibility to hold this energy signature and be able to receive information. Information is received in picture form, words or phrases, colors, feelings, smells, sounds tastes - all of the above. The problem people have is that they dismiss these when they are received as nonsensical. But this information is critical to understanding what we receive indeed, it is critical to receiving it in the first place.
Animal communication can be misconstrued for projections. This is a very important point. If we are unable to literally put ourselves aside and to be in a space of receiving without judgement, without projecting upon others then animals communication will not occur. Indeed, the animals themselves will not even engage with you. Have you noticed that animals gravitate to certain individuals and not to others? They have an innate seeing, feeling understanding that that individual is not at the developmental point to understand them on many levels. Animals are always honest. They are always truthful and do not lie. Indeed, they see us clearer than we see ourselves. Animals are always truthful from their perspective and experience of reality. So don't think you can fool an animal companion!
This brings an important point for those of you still skeptical about animal communication - can there be more than one reality? As a hypnotherapist I can attest to the experience of being able to move from one space of reality to another and thus being able to experience different spiritual states. How to explain these in a material way that will be accepted is quite another story. It's like saying to an orange why don't you taste like apple! Perhaps the multi-worlds theory may apply in this case or as Rupert Sheldrake purports morphological fields are all around us and if we are at the right frequency we can tap into these and receive information.
Here are some tips if you want to try to communicate with your animal:
First, ensure you are hydrated.
Get a picture of your animal and look deeply into their eyes.
Be still - being still is the most important and the hardest thing to do because our minds are so busy.
See what you see, smell, taste and feel.
Drop expectations (expectations are like noise the drown out the subtleties of the Soul).
I have a more advanced method but start with this first.
Before we go I want to ask Miss Saskie what she thinks animal communication is.
This is what she has to say:
"Tell them that it is a way of being. Tell them that they should do it more and free their minds from the stuff that humans do. It harms the animals and it harms themselves. Tell them that it is communicating deeply with the inner parts of yourselves. Parts that you have forgotten and that are sitting deep inside you like a well. Tell them that there is too much noise in the world and they cannot hear their true voices. When they can hear their true inner voice they will hear us".
Send me your experiences and animal companion pictures.
The picture that I shared above is of me and Pearl. Pearl is another off the track thoroughbred that was a broodmare for a long time. She had too many babies and is done with this life now. I wish I could adopt her but she is not the right fit for my Saskia. If I had a very large ranch and could separate them or find a fit for Saskie and another for Pearl I would adopt her. This picture was taken shortly after the fires we had in San Diego. I went to check on all the horses on the ranch. Pearl and I have a special bond and she adores me (she pushes all other horses away when they come near and we have our time). She often calls me energetically from her paddock when she sees me. A beautiful being.
