Just a little insight from a lion, setting the record straight on a few things: "You must pull away from the global picture shown by the news. It is highly manipulated. Enter and stay in our world where energy and consciousness and connection take center stage. You humans will never understand this if you watch us from the outside. You must feel us in your hearts. Forget the King of the Jungle stuff. We are energetically in tune with all Life and the Earth herself. What

When I asked the animals to share their wisdom on growing older, 17 species shared their beautiful perspectives. Here are two of them: "Growing older is like a dance. You have to learn different steps than the ones you've always known, to different music than what you're used to hearing. When you're young you stomp - making your mark on the world- trying to discover your own strength and kick up a lot of dust. Through time, you come to glide. Spend less energy trying to ma

Perhaps this contribution from a horse named Woodrow will give us yet another perspective on what is so extraordinary about horses, and why they impact us so deeply: "We horses are all here to help those who are trying to move humans and the planet forward. You see, you need energetic knives to cut through the illusion of the human world around you. We horses are sensitive enough to see what's going on for humans, and compassionate enough to try to help. Not all species ar

Many animal communicators across the globe have received the same message: the animal kingdom has no problem accepting "death". I thought you'd enjoy the skunk's perspective, in particular, as it speaks well for what I've also received from horses, tigers, birds, etc: “I’ll talk about death because, to us, there is no such thing. It is a human construct. We simply hang out in our bodies until they break down, then we take a little rest and get a new model, like a car. And i

As the animals have been answering my questions about growing older, I began thinking of those I've never heard from- especially the zebra. And guess who showed up: "You haven't asked me my thoughts about anything yet, including growing older. We see everything as steps leading upward; sometimes we wobble but we're forever progressing toward our destination. Sometimes it is our path to learn very delicate things - fine points. Other times, it is as if we're lifting heavy b

"God" "The All" "All That Is" "Spirit" "The Greater".... these are just a few of the terms that animals have used to refer to "that which is bigger than the self and ultimately unknowable." Many different species from horses to gorillas, hares to chickens, have told me they partner with Spirit in all things. As a horse named Hugo said: "Trying to go it alone is a major and massive human mistake. People have to remember to ask for help. Partnership with Spirit means you

Wow oh Wow...if I thought love was a hot topic, eliciting mind-blowing responses from the animals, it might just pale in comparison to the overwhelming response I've received when I asked about the topic of aging.Rhino, goat, horse, zebra, gorilla, lion, hippo, sheep, giraffe, crow, elephant, deer, alligator, chimpanzee, the bird kingdom as a whole and individually, crow and robin, alligator and panda have already shared their incredible insights....and I haven't even asked o

Yesterday was Valentine's Day. Last night, the voice of the animals came through in unison with the following message to cast a new light on the meaning of this holiday and our understanding of love: "On this day dedicated to love, we stand before you as a testament to the many who are growing into the realization of what they are capable of. As you tap into the expansiveness of your own hearts, you have begun to focus on love in all of its forms, moving away from the carto

There was so much I received from the animals that never made it into the book....Here is just a tidbit: If you notice the all-knowing, slightly amused look in Stormy's eye, above, you won't be surprised by the conversation below, regarding how to share the messages and insights from the animals. I told her that I took a class (a Google Analytics seminar) and discovered that the only countries seeking information about animal communication were the U.S, Canada, UK, Australia,
