What Goes Around Should Come Around

What Goes Around Should Come Around

C.J. is an 11 year old Labrador Retriever. His person asked him if he knew how much she loves him. C.J. comment, “Well of course I know. But you don’t love yourself. What goes around should come around.”

C.J. “We have a problem.”

C.J.’s Person, “What?”

C.J.  ”Okay…To love yourself. When feeling loved, you got, or have love. Feeling hurt, you got, or have hurt. It’s simple. Now – move on. Trust love. Your experience with what you thought was love lead to hurt. That was not love. That was dependency on another to give you love, to feel love, and to feel you were worth loving. His love was not real love. It caused heart break.”  

“Why do you think I stayed so long with you in spite of all we have gone through? To guide you to self-love.”

Life, by Zeus

Life, by Zeus

 “Life, do you know what it is?” When I heard this statement I asked, “Who is this?’ Zeus, a cat I know in spirit came forward then said, “YOU are loved dearly, perfect in your individuality. Life is an experience which brings understanding into who we, at each moment, believe we are. Enjoy life, eternal, constantly evolving. You are about to evolve very soon. Chin up… is the way to navigate.”    Then poof… he was gone.

Healing Power of Purr

Healing Power of Purr

Much has been said about the purr from a feline. A few comments I have heard are – he is purring because he is happy, she is purring because she loves me, purring helps her feel better, and the list goes on. Recently my brother Dan emailed me an article on research devoted to animal acoustical sounds to investigate the very fundamental question of exactly why cats purr.  It is a long read yet worth the time.

Dr. David Williams, the American medical researcher, biochemist and chiropractor, recently wrote about some fascinating research from the Fauna Communications Research Institute in Hillsborough, North Carolina, a group devoted to animal acoustical sounds, who decided to investigate the very fundamental question of exactly why cats purr.

Survival mechanism

Although most of us believe cats purr to give voice to joy or contentment, cats also purr when they are under stress – when they are caged, or injured, or even during the rigors of birth.

In these circumstances, it stands to reason that purring was invented for a larger purpose than just happy noises. Purring, a sound involving both the larynx and the diaphragm requires a lot from a cat.

As the Fauna researchers put it: ‘When was the last time you heard someone singing, or humming to themselves . . .when they were in the emergency room with a broken leg? The purr has to be somehow involved with survival.’

After recording the purring of all manner of cats, from domestic cats to cheetahs and ocelots at the Cincinnati Zoo, the researchers discovered something untoward. The dominant frequency for all the big and small cats besides the cheetah was 25 Hz or 50 Hz – the same frequencies that are optimal for bone growth or repair – although cats seem to be able to ramp up the range to 140 Hz.

Porcupine

Porcupine

Froggy is a cute name for a dog, yet not so cute when near men, or when experiencing thunderstorms.  As I began to communicate with Froggy, in my mind’s eye I saw a dog’s muzzle with wiry hair.  This did not fit Froggy’s description.  I explained to Molly, Froggy’s person, unexpected living or deceased animals occasionally come through to help.  I asked Molly if she could relate to an animal with a coarse wiry look on his muzzle, she could not.  We were both puzzled.  I then heard the word porcupine!  You have to admit it would be an odd word to hear at this moment.  I hoped this word would give us a clue, but Molly seemed even more baffled.  I focused back to the dog and clearly heard, porcupine, porcupine, porcupine.  At this point we did not know if we should laugh or beat our heads against a wall.  I then realized Molly was traveling through her memory banks for an answer.  I waited in silence.  With great relief, she remembered that earlier in the day she had received an email about a dog rescued―with porcupine quills in her muzzle. Thus, Porcupine became her name for the communication.

One would have had to personally experience the communication to fully appreciate Porcupine’s wit and wisdom with her comical interjections at pivotal moments.  What I can offer you is a list of Porcupine’s comments Molly and I compiled, which are to the point, pun intended.

Porcupine’s comments:

Your mind, in one thought, is more powerful than a usual thousand words.

Don’t play into those human ways.  Be YOU and show them.

Time to put your Big Girl Pants on.

Recognize your greatness and be cocky about it.

Act like the man of the house.  Get accustomed to being in charge.  Put your crown on and RULE!

Be, Love, Fun

It is time for ease and honesty with oneself

What you want―think it.  Is better than thinking about what we don’t want.

Molly commented several times, that’s going to be work.  Porcupine offered in response: That will be fun to learn.

Porcupine asked me, “Do you think she’s gets it?”   She then said, “The proof will be in Froggy.”

Porcupine’s suggestions hopefully helped Froggy, a fearful dog, as his person Molly.  It may seem some animals come into our lives to create havoc, yet when we understand the bigger view, animals help us―Be Better!

Prove It

Prove It

I had the privilege of giving a communication to one of the first female truck drivers.  She sounded tough but was mush. Katie, her Rottweiler mix had recently passed.  Our communication was her first, and she wanted proof that I was tuned in to her truck cabby companion.  I felt I had done so but she wanted more.  They had a nightly ritual before bed, and she wanted Katie to tell me what it was.

I entertained her request. Katie first explained she would hear water running, at least that was the best I could discern. I could not see what was taking place and evidently she could not either. Shortly after this sound she showed me the two of them face-to-face followed with a big kiss planted on her.  The reaction I got was of silence.  I waited.  She then spoke with a peaceful voice, “The water you heard was me peeing in a jar before I go to bed in my truck.  I then grab Katie’s big cheeks in my hands, look into her eyes, and give her a kiss on her forehead.”

It was apparent peeing was part of the ritual through Katie’s eyes!

Animals say the darndest things.

Tug-Of-War

Tug-Of-War

Blackie, a mutt from my childhood, unexpectedly appears in my mind’s eye.  He wants my readers to know he is the epitome of what people are seeking:  peace, joy, beauty, fun, and so much more, to a level we will come to know.

Blackie explains, “When choosing the direction that “feels” secure and “good” despite conditioned beliefs from the past, projections for the future, and connections with the present, we align ourselves with an easier, more productive, happier way of living.”

“When one lives in the moment, it feels similar to slow motion because of a heightened awareness of oneself and surroundings.  But when one operates in slow motion, actually more is accomplished than when rushing about because the internal guidance is now clearer providing fruitful direction and information.  This may not make sense at first.  Give it a go and experience it for yourself.  Slow down, breathe, and experience your surroundings.”

Blackie continues, “When the heart speaks, take action.  Above all else follow this.  It is a way to good days.”

Fear is old, judgment is old, and guilt is old, throw these old “ways”….away!

Live in the present and you will receive presence.

And always, ask for help from the many that are here to serve you.  We are ready and poised for your call when you are ready.  Please keep in mind your calls are not just for difficult times, but for good times to become even better.

 No more tug-o-war.  Go now in the direction that calls you.  Spirit’s got your back, as Karen’s friend *Suzette Faith Foster expresses quite often.

Listening to Divine guidance versus listening to advice and direction from humans can be perplexing. The first path is new to many and they may not trust or understand feelings or intuitive information that comes to them.  A simple rule of thumb I use to trust information, whether divine or human, is when it feels good, or I get chills through my body, it is true for me.

I was but a bit of a girl when you were in my life Blackie.  You were loved and  appreciated then as you are now.

A Win Win

A Win Win

Recently I had a communication with a witty draft horse named Kate.  Her first comment to her new person, Linda, was:  Ready for some fun?  Kate had little experience of the outside world, which in turn gave her an air of innocence.  She spoke of wanting to freely explore the woods and pastures around her new home.  But Kate was not grasping the human element of putting a bridle and saddle on her to do so.  In Kate’s case, learning teamwork and trusting her new person would bring the adventures she was wanting, and would be safer than running about on her own.

Kate’s background was not all roses.  She had worn a heavy painful halter for several years.  Her face showed wear and indentations from the leather straps.  Now with this painful thing off her head, she did not want anyone with anything near her face.  Linda understood Kate. With love and patience, and implementing techniques to help Kate accept the saddle and bridle, Kate’s urge to explore the property around her would be possible.

The minute Linda set eyes on a big spotted draft horse running across a field to meet her, she knew, this was the horse for her. And now, Kate had a home where she was lovingly cared for, and the love her Kate returned was profoundly appreciated.

Linda has been practicing Zen meditation for many years.  She understood the importance of living a rich life, fully, in each moment―which a horse understands.  Kate’s nature of having fun would support Linda, who admitted she was greatly in need of fun, plus yearned to explore their property as much as Kate did. For Kate and Linda, it was a―win-win.

Did you know embracing joy and having fun brings such goodness into our lives?  It seems to make the boogie man go away and dissolve the unwanted, perhaps controlling past.  I invite you to play and laugh today…and every day.

Beginning or Ending

Beginning or Ending

Daffodils, forsythia, a bit of a breeze, offer an enjoyable experience while on my walk. Spring is here, new beginnings. Turning a corner, a dog starts barking. I know her, black, with gray on her muzzle. She no longer runs to meet and greet. Her stiff slow legs explain why. I begin to feel sorry for her, then stop myself. She is enjoying this day and so am I. I substitute giving pets on her head with enjoying her presence and welcoming barks from a distance, and I in return send my greetings her way.

Why did I feel sorrow for her? Or was it for me? A friend shows signs of the beginning of the end of her life. I will miss her. I question how different people would experience this time of her life? Is she beginning or ending, to grieve or celebrate, perhaps experience it all, and more?

If she lived in the wild with predators, her body would not exist for long. Does nature now take on a dreadful image? Or, are predators welcomed? Her spirit would then begin another chapter in who she is. Her pain and discomfort would be short lived. Humans tend to fix, save, and hang on to. Why do we do this? You decide for yourself and grow from your discovery.

Head or Heart

Head or Heart

Zeus is the Father of Gods. In Greek mythology he was the God of sky and thunder and the King of the Gods who oversaw the universe. In Hesiod’s Theology, Zeus assigns the various Gods their roles.

A tabby cat now in the heavenly realms carries the qualities of the God Zeus. And how apropos, his name is Zeus.

A planned communication was set with Barb, Zeus’s person, with the intent of speaking with the cats living in her home. Before I could speak with Barb’s other cats, the Great Zeus popped in and said (in typical Zeus style): “I’m a little dot in the universe, but without me, the other dots wouldn’t be complete. He then explained when one connects the dots we create a picture, similar to the children’s connect the dot book puzzles.  When all of the dots are connected, life changes with a perspective we are all one and powerful together creating a whole.  We are not separate.”

Zeus then presented a conundrum. “If we put our head somewhere else on our body, would we use it in a different way?”  Mystified, followed with an outburst of laughter, we questioned his message.  So Zeus reworded the question and said, ”Pretend your head is on your side; where will you focus first now?”  Barb humorously stated:  I hope I don’t bump my head into anything.  Barb was completely stumped; she had no idea whatsoever how to answer that one!  I added that he wanted us to go first to the heart and feel, not think our way through life.  Typically, when we look at people we look at their head first, which was Zeus’s way of saying we think or analyze first.  Physically with the head gone, our heart is next in line. Look first at others with the feeling of love, and use one’s feelings of goodness for resolutions.

Zeus then stated, “Barb has enough to reflect on for now.”

Barb ended the session with, “And that’s the question for the day!!  The Great Oz has spoken.”

I found Zeus’s idea of putting the head physically someplace else on the body, brilliant. But then he is a God!  He made a strong and very important point…Start with the heart.  The color of the heart chakra is green.  Green means go, go with the heart.  When bombarded with advice, peer pressure and more, many do what they have been conditioned to do, what they are told to do, or should do.  I should do this or I should do that!  This is when one of those icky feelings comes through which is not aligned with your authentic self.  To go through the heart for direction, doing what brings joy; life takes on a new paradigm.  Side effects are: we feel good, have more energy, our wants of life seem to magically align and when in depression we bounce out of it.  Life is easier when we trust our higher guidance and it is always there for us.  And this is done how?  Through what feels good!

David Brown who channels Kryon shared these words:  Your heart is the new mind of the new age.  For more information go to: http://spiritlibrary.com/kryon-south-africa/the-great-human-awakening

In Sacred Space newsletter, Toni Elizabeth Sac’h Petrinovich shared in one of her videos that your heart is the voice of your soul.  When one listens to the heart it says do this with out reason.  For more

Zeus…you are indeed a god.  In Hesiod’s Theology, Zeus assigns the various Gods their roles.  Let’s rise to the occasion!  The role is to be happy, to be true to whom? You fill in the blank_____________.

Good Get

Good Get

Smokey, a frustrated Chihuahua was put on medication.  He kept saying, “no, no, no, no, I won’t take them.”  Because of Smokey’s behavior, his person Carmen had become exceedingly frustrated trying to get this little guy, with a little mouth, to swallow his little pills. Here is the twist to the story:  Both Smokey and Carmen were living with Carmen’s sister Lupi, with whom I was in communication.  Carmen was also on medication and Lupe had become exasperated in trying to get Carmen to take her medications.  Smokey profoundly said, “She now understands how frustrating it is for others, when she does not take her own medication.”  Lupi’s laughter was infectious, who was now on a mission to get Smokey’s message to Carmen.

In the same communication, Lupi’s Bichon Frise, Bonaparte, understood how difficult life had become in the household, not only from naysayers to medication, but Lupi’s husband had recently been laid off from his job.  During our session, I kept hearing Bonaparte explain that he regularly hears in his home, I get scared, I get afraid, I get worried.  Bonaparte gave Lupe advice: The busier we are doing things we like to do, know we can do, the better we, or life gets.  This is a good get!  Explained Bonaparte.
