Margie's Transition

Margie made her transition when her spirit left her body two days ago. She made a peaceful transition, as she requested, at home. She was in virtually no pain, as she was able to come in and out of her body while the process of completely leaving her body was waiting to happen. She as grateful for the home that was provided to her, she wanted to make sure to mention. She had a home previously and did always miss her former place and person.

Margie-the "dying process"

My mother's cat, Margie is leaving her body behind. She talks about hovering over her body. She also explains that she is moslty thinking about being a kitten and is comforted by doing so. Animals, I have found, will often talk about going in and out of their bodies during the process of leaving their bodies. Margie, like man animals close to completing the process, says that she really feels no pain at this time.

Conversation with two dogs of India-2 different perspectives

On a recent trip to India, I had the opportunity to communicate with the many dogs that wander freely there. Although I would not advocate for animals in my local area tp live on "the street", I felt that it was important to be completely open to what the animals of the location where I was in India had to say.

In a beach area, I spoke with a female dog, appx 3 years of age, who very pointedly asked me if could come home to live with me. She laid down about 50 feet away and staring intently at me as she spoke. She explained that she was ill, that she had a "parasite". She told me that she was not like many of the dogs of this place. That she had heard about dogs living indoors and that she was very much was a dog who wanted to do the same and to have a "family". I informed her, regretably, that I could not taker her home. She would continue with her "pack" life, she informed me.

Another dog was clear that he was very content. This dog's perspective was that the animals of this place are attuned to teh earth and that they live in harmony with the humans. The humans sometimes provide food, but for the most part leave the dogs be. He felt that "dogs are dogs" here and this maintained a natural balance.

Non-Believers

Anne,

As I am starting in animal communication I was wondering how you handle people who do not believe in what you are doing/or that an animal is really telling you what they are telling you?

E.

I'm Alive

OK. I accept full responsibility regarding the fact that I have not been a good little blogger these days. I remember when a wonderful spirit, Tom, set me up on here. He told me, "Anne, if you start blogging, you have to keep it up every day or people will go to animal communicator's site".

I took these words to heart and had planned on blogging every single day. No matter if I was tired, stressed or just had nothing much to say. All of which might threaten to make my blog an un-read space in the looserdom of blogs. Much like my experience in 5th grade math, my pledge was to dedicate time and effort every single day to the blog. I would blog to prove my dedication no matter what the result. However, like 5th grade math in November, the blog has sort of taken a little dip if not having completely fallen by the wayside in past month..or two.

In my defense I had a family emergency (hero brother defending fellow subway rider being attacked is a pretty good excuse for not blogging, right?).

However, this evening I read where my wonderful cousin-in-law (also named Anne) had recently updated her blog. Anne is a pastor and the wife of my cousin the pastor and they man/woman an entire church of worshipers. Much to my chagrin, Anne dutifully updated her blog the DAY AFTER giving birth to her fifth child. 'Nuff said. Guilty as charged (or not charged cause nobody is here to charge 'cause like Tom predicted they've all gone away cause there's absolutely nothing to read.

I pledge once again that I shall blog. Every day? No, not gonna' happen. It's just not. But I shall return.

"I don't feel like meditating"

I’m pretty stressed this week and haven't been "feeling" meditation. In case you missed it, all animal communicators meditate for an hour in the morning, in the evening, in addition to before each animal communication session. Right? Well, I'm here to dispel this myth. Or, at the very lease, to help take away the stigma that comes from being a resistant meditator. Don't get me wrong, I love a good mediation session but it just doesn't always jump out at me as the thing I want to be doing. My resistance to it used to keep me from getting myself into the grounded place that is important to be in when talking to animals. I'd actually worry that I was not going to be able to meditate.

For some reason, many of us feel that we have to be able to mediate for three hours (OK, I’m exaggerating) in order to be a good animal communicator. Well, I’m here to dispel that myth. There are other options for the overstressed out there. For instance, I have found wonderful audio CD’s on hypnosis and drumming/journeying music that virtually do the grounding and centering trick for me. Also, walking or running are two of my favorites for shaking off the stress and coming to center.

I used to feel guilty when I wasn’t in the right space to meditate. Well, I finally realized that guilt doesn’t really help the matter. So, I encourage people to find other ways. Have a tool kit to pull out when the meditation just isn't doing it for you. Write, read, sing. Oh yea, combing my cat works wonders, too!!!
