What is the spiritual mission of the "Four-legged Angel" in our lives?
They are among us!
The four-legged angel who has a special mission in humanity. They are emotional therapists. They will not hesitate to give you a good lick on the face if they feel you are sad or disharmonious. Its mission can be individual or collective; many of the dogs do a very particular job or can affect an entire group of people and/or families. The latter is increasingly common in families that choose to have a “pet dog” (Ex: Shitzu, Yorkshire, French bulldog, and many others) and becomes an inseparable friend and faithful protector. But there are secrets behind this "faithful friendship".
Power protectors
Our four-legged angel is a protector of energy. They will absorb unbalanced vibrations from you and your spaces, then purify themselves with the help of water, plants and other elements that help them. If necessary, they will sacrifice themselves for you when there are very strong energies that can affect you. They know their mission and will not hesitate to do so. Certain sudden deaths, for no apparent reason, are sometimes caused by those strong energies they absorb from you or your spaces. A good way to help them purge the energy they have absorbed is to give them a lot of physical affection; caresses make them happy. When you rejoice, your auric field widens and this high state of mind quickly shakes that unbalanced energy as if it were a great energy repellent. Every time you pet a dog with love, you will be helping it enormously. Holistic therapies like Reiki, help a lot to balance your chakras. (According to yogic philosophy, they are energy centers within the human body, which distribute energy through channels that feed organs and systems). Their evolutionary degree allows them to travel easily on the astral plane. They can accompany you on their astral journeys; nor will they leave you alone. They know the way better than you do. They choose you. They choose you - and they know your mission very well; he is to accompany you on this mission until the end. They will come to you least expectedly; and even when you have the opportunity to “choose” among many other dogs. He or she will take a particular approach, look, and sympathy that will allow you to have no doubts about the choice. You will know that you chose well (according to you), however, he or she was the one who chose you and with your energy and vibration, let you know.
