One of the most delightful occasions that I have had as an animal communicator is the very first time I communicated with some of the many animals that my husband-to-be has shared his life with. Some of them are still living, many of them have passed on to the greener pasture of Daisy Hill Farm. It is fair to say that when J first met me, he really did not know precisely what he was letting himself in for. In fact, if I tell the whole truth, he had no idea whatsoever. Gradually though, the truth began to ooze out. |

One of the animals that I have found the easiest to communicate with is Sally Pups. Sally is another of J's animals and this delightful collie came to live with me as a relatively elderly lady. The fact that she is not my dog makes communication easier. So often when attempting to communicate with our own animals, we fall into the trap of thinking that we are making it all up, believing we know so much about them. What is wonderful for me is that Sally has a past that I know very little about. |

I was and still am a great lover of the natural world and as a child spent many hours in woods and fields trying to get as far away from human civilisation as I could, seeking communion with trees, plants and animals ~ the Great All That Is.
As far as actually communicating with animals was concerned, I cannot say that at that time I was hugely successful. My intense desire to be a tremendous Dr Dolittle seem to do nothing but frighten creatures away. At least I had no success with wild animals. Rabbits did not come out of their burrows to discuss the weather or ask whether I would mind being their friend. |

One thing I have learned when communicating with animals is the absolute necessity ofheart. This may seem an obvious statement to those who are less cerebrally challenged than I but I would like to share the following story which I hope you will agree reveals this simple truth. This story is a demonstration of the tremendous connection that is possible between the human animal and animals.
I share my life with two native ponies and one old horse amongst other animals. Now those of you who have ever had dealings with native ponies or who have ever been responsible for their care will understand that it is a responsibility which weighs heavy upon the heart. |

I cannot get enough of communicating with animals.
I love it because it challenges my assumptions about them time and time again. I am deeply passionate about increasing people's awareness of animals as intelligent sentient beings. There is nothing less about a dog, a horse, a rabbit. Just as much design has been put into these animals as has been invested in the human form and yet we are so disconnected from the natural world that we can only see our own superiority.
Animals are a huge part of my life. |
