In the case of communicating with a transcended soul, I usually first perceive how the animal was in life, and then I "tune in" to its eternal Soul. This one is outside space-time and accumulates the experiences of all its incarnations, so it is easy for it to connect with the one that, from the point of view of linear time, was the last one. If the transition was recently, the soul may even still be very connected to its earthly family.
Life is made up of experiences that keep us on a path of continuous spiritual growth, and most of our furry companions come to us with a clear purpose, although it is true that among animals there are as many different levels of consciousness as among us humans. There are souls that have lots of experience and others that are young and have not had many incarnations yet. In any case it is likely that the soul of your animal has a message for you. In my experience they communicate it in a way that will bring the most comfort and peace of mind to their people.
What can I do for you?
Losing a "furry family member"
can be even more painful than losing a human relative, because our emotional connection is often more intense, unconditional, free of judgment and ego drama. Yet
we often feel misunderstood by family and friends, even ridiculed. That makes our grief even more painful!
It can be a great relief to be accompanied by someone who understands us.
I can also bring you a deep understanding, not only of what is happening to you, but also of the process your beloved animal is going through.
Knowing and understanding their wishes and their perspective on the process of death, eliminates any guilt that may arise and fills you with the peace you need to go through your grief in a healthy way.
a Poem: The Rainbow Bridge
Inspired by a Norse Legend
By the edge of a woods, at the foot of a hill,
Is a lush, green meadow where time stands still.
Where the friends of man and woman do run,
When their time on earth is over and done.
For here, between this world and the next,
Is a place where each beloved creature finds rest.
On this golden land, they wait and they play,
Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day.
No more do they suffer, in pain or in sadness,
For here they are whole, their lives filled with gladness.
Their limbs are restored, their health renewed,
Their bodies have healed, with strength imbued.
They romp through the grass, without even a care,
Until one day they start, and sniff at the air.
All ears prick forward, eyes dart front and back,
Then all of a sudden, one breaks from the pack.
For just at that instant, their eyes have met;
Together again, both person and pet.
So they run to each other, these friends from long past,
The time of their parting is over at last.
The sadness they felt while they were apart,
Has turned into joy once more in each heart.
They embrace with a love that will last forever,
And then, side-by-side, they cross over… together.
