What Are You Thinking Right Now? 

What Are You Thinking As You Go About Each Day?

what are you thinking right nowWe are not our thoughts, yet they influence us in every moment!

To fully recognise the influence our thoughts have on our daily life, we need to pay attention to them as often as possible and in every moment. This helps develop our awareness and brings our inner and outer worlds into alignment.

Start by ‘noticing’ or paying attention when you wake up after a sleep – What are the first thoughts you have? Then notice while at work what you think of as you do your tasks.

Pay attention when you interact with others and notice where your thoughts go. What are you thinking? How well do you listen to the other person? Are you sorting out your answer, thinking of a clever repartee, or are you in the moment with them? Do your thoughts lead the conversation or do they distract you from being present?

Continue to practise paying attention while doing everything and anything. What are you thinking while eating, when at play, while reading, while driving, when brushing your teeth, and doing ordinary activities of the day?

Pay attention and discover where your thoughts lead you and what they rest on. You may be surprised by the lanes and pathways your thoughts take.

The Petroglyphs at Kakadu – An Ancient Living Gallery

The Petroglyphs at Kakadu National Park are a Stunning Gallery and Sacred Sitepetroglyphs at Kakadu 1A few years ago I visited the Petroglyphs at Kakadu in the Northern Territory of Australia. In this article, I discuss how to respectfully visit and interact with them.

The inscriptions or ‘rock art’ as the petroglyphs at Kakadu are commonly known, have an energy that can take us to other times and places. They also help make an area holy and give it a sacredness, and the ‘rock art’ at Ubirr and Nourangie Rock in Kakadu National Park emits a sacred essence and has a multi-dimensional quality.

Living Galleries at Kakadu

Petroglyphs at Kakadu image 2There are profound living stories that are shared in these ancient galleries, as well as stories of the history of the area, what people saw, and who and what they encountered. In one area there is an image of a boat with tall sails and another with a man wearing a hat, holding a gun. There is also an image of the sacred ancestral rainbow serpent.

Throughout the ‘galleries’ there are images of fish, dolphins, local animals and birds, as well as drawings/paintings of good and bad spirits, the ancestors and dreaming. They also identify animals and spirits that the community should avoid, like the dangerous spirit ‘Nabulwinjbulwinj’.

X-Ray Images in the Petroglyphs at Kakadu

I love the x-ray style and painting techniques that were used, as well as the colours of the ochres, and I found wandering through these galleries to be profound and moving, I also felt very lucky. To actually be there, and also to have been welcomed by the Ancestral Spirits was a real privilege.

As I mentioned, places like these are very special and contain great energies and energy templates. They can help us remember who we are, and they can help us track ancient pathways in the landscape and the cosmos.

Permission to Visit Sites like the Petroglyphs at Kakadu 

Petroglyphs at kakadu 4When we visit sites like this it is good to visit with positive intention. Whether you can see, feel or hear them, there are ancient energies present. So, on your arrival, if not before, state your intention and ask permission to enter this sacred place. Let the guardians and ancestral spirits know why you are visiting and engage with them with respect.

When you ask their permission to visit and enter – respect the answer you are given. You may hear voices, you may experience sensations in your body, you may have some thoughts and ideas pop into your head. You may experience a change in the outside temperature, a light breeze, or a strong wind may pick up. An animal or bird may suddenly appear – on the ground, in the trees or in the sky. So attune you senses to experiencing anything and everything that may be clues to how they are communicating with you.

Honouring the Response from the Ancestors 

If the answer to your question is YES, and you are welcome to go anywhere, then register that and acknowledge the liberty and respect that they have shown you. If they say you can visit some bits and not others, respect that, and acknowledge the liberty and respect that they have shown you.

If you receive a NO and you are not welcome, then honour that and acknowledge the respect and liberty that they have shown you. The Elders, Guardians and Ancestral Spirits may explain their answer to you, however it is not an expectation. Equally if they choose to ignore you, this does not mean all is well.

Develop Harmonious Relationships With The Earth 

Petroglyphs at Kakadu 5I often take people to sacred sites, to help them develop and build harmonious relationships with the Earth and our Galactic Ancestors and there are many, many responses and answers that can be received by a visitor. The response we get is often based on personal frequency, vibration, past life experiences, mediumship capacity, connection to nature and more, so pay attention and remain in positive connection and intention. And remember that being ignored at these places is a part of your lesson as well, so respect that nothing that happens in such places is a coincidence.

Sacred spaces have an energy template that reaches into the Soul to help us grow and change, and it is an honour to visit such places, and I am very thankful that the Elders still allow us to visit and engage with these amazing galleries… Lets hope that continues!

The Whales Share Their Medicine and Help Us Remember Who We Are

The Whales share their Medicine as they migrate north, and each of them is helping us to remember our inner sounds and activate the codes held within our DNA.

the whales share their medicine to help us rememberEach day the whales are sharing their medicine into our human collective consciousness, breaching and playing as they move towards warmer waters. One day I counted 73 whales, but most days I see around 30. It is heartwarming to see these giants of the sea move so graciously and joyfully as they travel along, and they are of course powerful ‘medicine’ to connect with.

In the Medicine Cards, the whales are considered the ancient record keepers. They carry the history of Mother Earth, and an ancient connection to Sirius, and they have seen and remembered all. So, the whales are a swimming library, an embodied collection of knowledge that moves with great grace, and power, up and down the waters of this planet.

The Whales share their medicine though the Sounds they make: 

The whales also help us engage with the encoded wisdom in our DNA, so that we may understand and interact with sound frequencies. These frequencies contain knowledge, wisdom and healing energy, and when we are near them, activations of galactic memory can occur.

These activations also help us tap into the Universal Mind and Greater Consciousness. Their energy reaches into our DNA and psyches as well, and helps us re-connect with our inner melody, uniqueness and personal sound.

Do you know what your personal sound is? It is not a cry for help, or a call for connection. It is the voice of the Power within you. It is the sound of your deepest being and Personal Medicine. If you want it, if you are searching for it, or if you have found it and want to energise it, then now is the perfect time to experience the ‘medicine’ of the whales

Card Reading for the Full Moon and Eclipse, July 2020

Paulina Howfield’s card reading for the Full Moon and Eclipse, highlights our ability to ‘Focus’ and ‘Retreat’

For today’s card reading for the full moon and eclipse, Paulina used two decks – her Soul Whispers Deck and the Animal Cards Pack, as they both reach into the heart of the matter. She pulled one card from each. Their content directs us to ‘becoming a profound and powerful anchor of calm resolve amid life’s storms’.

The intention/question was ‘What is important for each of us to connect with at this time?’

The Soul Medicine wisdom for the card reading for the full moon and eclipse is: ‘FOCUS’ – I am able to stay on task, follow my purpose and be true to who I am – even when everything around me is in chaos.

The Animal Medicine of the card reading for the full moon and eclipse is ‘RETREAT’ – via the medicine of the ‘Prairie Dog’. Prairie dog medicine teaches that strength and inspiration can be found by retreating into the stillness that quiets the mind. So, it prompts us to seek self-empowerment in silence and inactivity…not outwardly searching for answers, but gently and quietly going within to discover our own resources and our unique soul wisdom.

Together These Two Cards Deliver Profound Medicine:

By going within and RETREATING, we begin to FOCUS on who we are, rather than the distractions of who we are not. They help us access our dreams and inner visions without the intrusions of outer worldly chaos.

The inner FOCUS and silence of the RETREAT informs us that to access gifts of inspiration and renewal we must be at peace with ourselves and rested enough to be able to recognize the blessing being offered. So, the strength of RETREAT and FOCUS, is also in knowing when and how to replenish our life force.

By looking without for the answers and unconsciously tapping into the worldly chaos, we become exhausted, we cannot think clearly, we drain our inner resources and find it difficult to remain focused and alert to that which we are not.

Choosing this Card at this time, helps us to understand that this is not a time to push too hard, for answers and solutions …pushing too hard can create resistance that does not enable positive enhancement, and instead encourages stilted interaction with self and others. It also takes us away from our FOCUS on the real Truth, and capacity for inner renewal and deep peace.

The wisdom from the Soul is always in harmony with the wisdom of Mother Nature and the Animals, and when we take the time to connect with both, we develop resolve, we understand what personal responsibility means and we lift our frequencies. We also start to consciously anchor the Light of who we are in harmony with the natural world and the celestial bodies.

So may the energy and wisdom of FOCUS and RETREAT filter through your energy fields over the next few days. May they help you dance with the energy of fire; help you access the deep and profound wisdom that is within You; and assist you in becoming a profound and powerful anchor of calm resolve amid life’s storms

The Collective Energy Field

What You Are Sending Into The Collective Energy Field

what are you sending into the collective energy fieldWe are all part of the Collective Energy Field. Every thought we have, every feeling we experience and every action we take, sends out a current into the collective energy field. It’s a ‘pea-souper’ in the collective emotional energy field at the moment. Many people are being triggered as they try to navigate what is happening in their lives and integrate unexpected challenges, emotions and life upheavals, and it is sending waves and clouds of distress, and unconscious feelings, thoughts and behaviours out into the collective energy field of our species, and the auric field of the planet.

The Collective Energy Field Is ‘Energy In Motion’

Our emotions are just like our thoughts, they are not who we are, and they are not ‘ours’. They are simply energy in motion – passing through – that we have chosen to identify with. It may be our experiences, our beliefs, our thoughts, and the patterns of our DNA that influence how we engage with our Emotions, but it is our BELIEF that we ARE them, that keeps them ‘running’ in our lives.

image for article what are you sending into the collective energy fieldIn the days, weeks and months ahead, we each have to decide what we want to keep alive in the currency of the collective energy field, and decide what we want to put out there into the ‘pea soup’ of our collective. If we want to promote peace and well-being we need to send out this currency. If we want to create respect and live with integrity we have to send this currency out into the universe! Aim to be conscious in your thoughts, your actions and your feelings, and be selective in your focus. Decide what energy you want to be the currency in the collective energy field and our universal consciousness, then feed it and keep it alive!


Paulina Howfield runs Earth energy workshops, and teaches about consciousness, healing, shamanism and art therapy. Helping people to manage their thoughts, feelings and subtle bodies is important at this time, and is a focus in Paulina’s work, particularly now with all the ascension changes and their effects on the collective energy field.

Consciousness Card Reading April 2020

Planetary Consciousness Card Reading

Today I was called to do a planetary consciousness Animal Medicine Card Reading.  As always, the Cards share great wisdom.

Over the past few weeks there has been much discussion both online and off about what humanity is currently experiencing on this planet. The planet of course is business as usual as all her animals, species, and natural world do what they need to, after the change of season at the Equinox.

The Equinox brought in a great deal of light to our planet and we are actually now living in a higher frequency. The inner core energy frequency of our planet has also changed, and I will be posting information about that, and a meditation process to in a few days.

Animal Insights from the Card Reading 

First Card in the Card Reading: 

Coyote Medicine – relates to recent events. As many of you will know the Coyote energy is the trickster energy. Snooze time is over when the Coyote Cards appears in a reading. Our glass house and perceptions about the world are crashing down. This is happening in at least two ways – we are being opened up to the deception and the trickster medicine that has been happening on our planet for a long time; and we are also being prompted to register our own role in our own inner ‘trickster’, and the ways we have individually and collectively tricked ourselves.

Coyote medicine teaches that everything that can go wrong will. This is to do with what we need to change within ourselves, what we believe about the world we live in and how we act within its social constructs. We are begin asked to clear the mirror of our perceptions and also clarify what we really believe. Trickster medicine is confronting and challenging, but it enables the truth to appear and all illusion to be shattered.

Second Card in the Card Reading:

Weasel Medicine – relates to what is happening now. Weasel is about the energy of Stealth. If you have ever watched weasels you will know they have a lot of energy and are very clever – ingenious at times, with how they can respond to new situations, new information and any perceived threat. Weasels are very observant and have the ability to see beneath the surface of a situation – to know what is really going on behind the scenes or façade that is being presented. In the past, those with weasel medicine were often employed to establish the ‘medicine’ and ‘power’ of the enemy, as they have a great capacity to hear and understand what is really being said and can give an accurate account of a particular situation. They also pay attention to covert actions and false ideas that are presented as truth. In this current situation it would suggest to use your powers of observation and keen awareness to understand the truth and its relevance to you and your life, rather than rely on the information, thoughts and perceptions of others. Also pay attention to your actions, feelings and senses with a keen eye. If we ignore your own senses, feelings and perceptive thoughts, confusion can set in. This can also lead to lead to paranoia and fear.  Weasel suggests that ‘if you want to right a situation, start by shaking the dullness out of your head and observing the obvious. No one can fool you if you watch your step, honour your knowing, seek the ‘hidden reasons’ and use discretion in the process’.

 Third Card in the Card Reading:

Alligator Medicine – relates to the potential future. Alligator is about integration. How to fully integrate and appreciate all that life offers, to integrate each moment, digest our life with ease, and count all our experiences as equal opportunities. Alligator medicine also teaches us to not pass judgement until we have all the facts and, and have seen all sides of any situation. So, if you are acting on judgement, fear and concern, declaring strong opinions and ideas, it is wise to gather information, roll with the punches, digest both the pleasure and pain of life, and use patience and proper timing before acting.

Alligator medicine teaches us to use what is happening as a Rite of Passage and honour our progress in this situation. Be mindful says alligator that quick-fix solutions don’t necessarily support long-term goals. ‘Avoid getting stuck in the duality and quagmire of the human judgement game. Use calm resolve, and review your healing process and life lessons, integrating the growth you have attained’. In any potential future, if we integrate alligator medicine we can live without judgement, accepting life with grace. We can integrate each moment and digest our life with ease, releasing concern and worry from our face and counting all our experiences as equal opportunities.


I wish you all well at this time, and hope this reading helps you gain some deeper insights and perhaps clarity in this journey that we have all volunteered to be part of.

Transformation with Butterfly Medicine

Transformation is in the Air

Aligning with the natural world to gain insight into our personal and collective journey is powerful medicine. Today’s natural medicine came via the Butterfly world. As I walked along in nature, I counted 62 vibrantly coloured butterflies, flittering and fluttering about. There were bright lemon migrants; multi-coloured birdwings; orchard swallowtails; vivid blue ones I don’t know the name of; numerous brown and white varieties; large cream ones; and a few green splendours.

transformation with butterfly medicineWhile science and biology tell us that butterflies are plentiful at the moment due to the weather of the last six months which has killed off a few of their natural predators, the Animal Medicine Cards indicate that each butterfly is a potential symbol of Transformation via the element of Air and the mind…and highlights the ability to know the mind or to change it. So, what is your mind focusing on at this time?

Do you feel uncertain about what is happening? Perhaps you have recently lost a job and wonder what you can do now, or maybe you are considering how to share what you know, or support others in this time of isolation. Or you may be like me, and focusing on mastering your thoughts and feelings as the changes unfold in the coming weeks. I am paying attention to my thoughts and feelings; changing my thoughts when necessary; identifying feelings but not attaching to them; and keeping my subtle energies clear as the ‘pea soup’ of the collective unconscious energy does its best to knock us all off balance. What about you? Are you keeping a clear mind, and are you able to transform your thoughts when you need to? Butterfly medicine is helpful with these aspects as well.

Transformation with the Butterfly

transformation via butterfly According to the Cards, to know the transformative power of butterfly medicine we must observe our position in the cycle of self-transformation. So, what is your mind focusing on at this time, in relation to the cycle of the butterfly?

Are you at the egg stage: the beginning of all things – where the idea/thought has not yet become a reality? The larva stage making the decision to ‘create the idea or thought’ into the physical world? Or the cocoon stage, going within to develop your project, idea or thought? Maybe you have already done these phases and like the butterfly you have given birth, left the chrysalis behind, and are now sharing your light and your energy with the world…like the butterflies did with me.

Whatever phase or stage you are in at this time, the capacity for transformation is never-ending and always present, and the natural world and our planet are always ready and willing to help us gain insight and deeper understanding.

Earth Energies and ‘Slaying the Dragon’

‘Slaying The Dragon’ is part of medieval literature and the Quest for the Holy Grail…..But what does it really mean for an Earth Energy and Lightworker?

In medieval and mythological stories a knight, saint or giant undergoes a Quest or Pilgrimage where they must kill or ‘Slay’ a dragon to become the ‘Hero’. 

It is not only men that undergo this spiritual practice or Quest. Princesses, maids and queens have also ‘slayed’ the dragon throughout history, its just that few stories about a woman slaying a dragon are mentioned in ancient fables, as it doesn’t fit with the mythologies of the male ‘heroic figure.

This failure to mention women is interesting as ‘slaying the dragon’ has nothing to do with masculinity and male power at all. It is actually all about the strengthening of the Divine Feminine energy both within the subtle bodies of the dragon slayer; and the landscape itself.

When done properly, by a grail knight/ grail maiden who sits a saddle, ‘slaying the dragon’, activates the ‘Divine Feminine’ in the land, and awakens the forces in the Earth, so that the energy of the dragon can then move across and through the landscape.

We have evidence of this spiritual practice of personal growth and land awakening, through the many mounds, hills and towns that have the word ‘dragon’ or ‘aller’ in their name – which is a direct reference to what took place there and the spiritual practice of ‘slaying a dragon’.

Successfully ‘slaying the dragon’ in the landscape is only possible if the dragon slayer, grail knight/grail maiden or ‘hero/heroine’, can actually sit in their saddle and hold their own when faced with all sorts of energies. This is an allegory for our capacity to manage the forces and energies that are at work in the unseen world – energies that can topple an ‘energy worker’ and ‘lightworker’ from their ‘saddle’ if they have not done their inner work and initiations.

Its tough but true…because in the geomythic blueprint of our planet, dragons eggs and dragon energies were placed in specific locations around the planet to await the ‘dragon slayer’ who activated them and released the energy of the Divine into the Earth Energy Matrix. This is how we move forward together  in greater harmony with the Divine Feminine awareness that we have collectively lost connection to.


If you are interested in learning how this can be done every day and in every moment, Paulina talks about some of her experiences as a ‘dragon slayer’ in her book ‘Remembering Isis’ and demonstrates how the grail maiden, or the ‘heroine’ can interact with these invisible realms and hold their saddle no matter what.

December Solstice 22nd, 2019 (3:19 pm EST)

December Solstice Energies and Influences

No matter where we live on our planet, the December Solstice is a time when we can be highly sensitive to the energies around us. This is because the veils between the visible and invisible worlds are thin, and we are consciously and unconsciously tuning into any and all energies across the dimensions.

Our ancestors knew the veils were thin at this time, and recognized that they made us more susceptible, even vulnerable to, unwanted energies. That is why they created particular rituals, dances and celebrations at specific stone circles and structures, so that people in the community at large, could enter the higher realms in the right manner and order, and interact with the frequencies in ways that they could ‘ground’ and more easily integrate them upon return.

The Elders also knew that the full moon that always comes just before the December Solstice, as well as the solar and astrological alignments that come just after it, would also influence how these frequencies would be integrated in the body/mind/spirit and then expressed out into the world. That is important to remember for this Solstice as it was preceded by a powerful Full Moon, and will be swiftly followed by a Solar Eclipse on the 25th/26th December.

Celebrations and Rituals

What celebrations, rituals, musings and meditations are you being called to do? Do you need to go within to find the answers? (those in the Northern Hemisphere are entering winter) Do you need to step out and let your light shine? (the Southern Hemisphere is entering summer) Perhaps you need to do a bit of both.

Here is what my ‘Soul Whispers Cards’ reading suggests:

1) How can we connect with the cosmic energies of the Solstice:
MESSENGERS – I hear the messages of beings in the higher realms – I can feel their support and influence each day;

2) What do we need to pay attention to this Solstice:
DNA – My genetic pattern is now being healed – and I lovingly release it and say goodbye;

3) What do we need to remember this Solstice:
BALANCE – Everything in my life is balanced and harmonious – I am breathing deeply, I am relaxed and grounded;

Communicating With Animals

Psychically Communicating With Animals

When I am out in nature, I am always psychically communicating with animals, birds, trees and stones. Due to my openness and willingness to communicate with them, they reach out to connect with me. I am always respectful to them, and I listen and we converse.

They may tell me about their role in maintaining the eco-system of the area; or explain the intricacies of the subtle energies where they reside. Often we chat about their health or well-being, and I will do what I can to help them if required. Our conversations may be short, direct and to the point, or long, complex and articulate. It all depends on the personality of the living being I am communicating with.

Our Pet’s Communicate Too

It is exactly the same when I am communicating with animals that have close human interactions and live as ‘pets’ in people’s lives. In these instances I may be a visitor to a home, or I have been contacted specifically to help the humans help their pet – although often the truth is, that the interaction is actually to help the pet help their human. It may be a bird, rabbit, gecko, fish, cat, horse or dog. Whatever the form the ‘being’ has taken, I will listen to them, converse respectfully, find out what their issue is, and then do whatever I can to help.

If I’m called to help with a pet it is usually when the pet is 1) sick or dying, 2) off their food, 3) behaving differently, or 4) has been injured in some way. Then I use my skills either in person or via remote viewing, to start communicating with the animal to find out what has happened, and/or what is wrong, and thereby establish what they need for themselves or their humans.

What Does Communicating With Animals Involve?

Much of the time when communicating with animals, I find that they will share information via feelings, symbols or images, and they will show in their mind what the issue is. Some will also actually speak telepathically and I will hear their voice, and it does also involve paying attention to non-verbal cues. But I find there aren’t really any absolutes as to how they will share as each animal may communicate differently – just like we do – and how they do it, is not relative to their species, but more to each animal’s own personality. Once I have established what their issue is, and or what they need, I facilitate effective communication between the animal and the human to help them share what they need and want; and also provide healing for the animal and for the humans.

One of the animals I helped was a dog called Tyson, who is now on the ‘other side’. He recently asked me to share my story with you (see below). He says that people need to know how to communicate with their animals, because just like us, many animals want to be given the chance to complete unfinished business and fulfil their unique mission before they leave. Knowing how to facilitate this for them involves us 1) respectfully and effectively communicating with animals no matter what their species, and 2) being willing to create a space in our lives for that to happen.

Tyson’s Story

Tyson the dog teaches about communicating with animals when they are sickTwo and a half years ago, I was asked to use my skills in communicating with animals to talk with Tyson. He had just been diagnosed with cancer. His human had been told by a vet that he was very sick and would probably die in a few weeks to a month. He had been a bit listless, off his food and a bit slower than usual when out walking, which is why she had taken him to the vet. She knew he wasn’t ‘himself’ but hadn’t expected a diagnosis that was terminal, and according to the vet would be swift.

While the diagnosis was a shock and she was sad to think he was going to die soon, she knew that if it was his time to go, she could deal with that and work towards helping him. She was also clear that she did not want him to suffer, and didn’t want him to live in pain. She could also help him pass-over quickly if that is what he wanted, but she wondered, ‘If I euthanise him, am I stopping him from doing something he needs to before he dies?’.

Being an intuitive herself, she had talked with him and she felt he was saying he was okay and not yet ready to die, but because she had a strong heart connection with him, she wanted to double check that she was correct in what she was picking up. So, I began to connect with him and communicate, and Tyson told me very clearly that he was not on his way out, yet; that he was not in pain; that he wasn’t suffering; and that he still had things to do.

Communicating With Animals Includes Listening

As I listened and asked questions, Tyson was able to let me know what he wanted and needed. He wanted the ‘right’ medicine, and his human could ensure that he got it. The ‘medicine’ would be the kind of food he ate and any minerals and vitamins that needed to be added.  He already had a good diet without any impurities, and he had lots of exercise, but he was certain that he needed three particular Bach flower remedies and two essential oils, and some hands on and remote healing. He also told me he needed the green stuff – he meant spirulina; the yellow stuff – he meant yeast with B12; fish oil; and Vitamin E.

He didn’t think he needed all of these ‘medicines’ every day, but he was clear that his human could ask him what he wanted every day, and with her help and prompting he could indicate what he wanted and when. If he ever needed pain management, or it was his time to go, and he couldn’t make it clear to his human, he would let me know remotely and I could pass the information on to her. In the meantime, though, he would self-medicate and keep on processing.…and so he did. Every day for the rest of his life, both his food and medicine were put under his nose and he was given the choice to have what he needed and in whatever amount.

Tyson’s Healing Journey

Over the next few months the tumour in Tyson’s body shrunk and he began to thrive and not just survive. A year later he was still alive with lots of energy and a strong commitment to completing what he needed to do. At that point I went to look after him for three months, while his human went away. In the twelve weeks I was with him, he continued to choose his daily medicine, and he was clear he still had some healing to do. He had been a ‘rescue’ dog and had not had an easy life as a puppy, and he was clearing and working all this through. He also still had some things to complete with his human, and was helping her to do her inner growth and healing.

By November last year, eighteen months after he was given a terminal diagnosis, where he may live a few weeks, he had completed what he needed to do, and was getting ready to go home. For the last two weeks in November I interacted intuitively with him every few days, and had many conversations with him and his human, about his health, any pain he may be experiencing, and any change in his desire to stay or go.

His human consistently wanted to make sure that he wasn’t in pain, and that she was doing everything to relieve his suffering, yet also helping him to do whatever he needed to before he died. She was told by friends that she should put him out of his pain and suffering. Yet each time we tuned in, he was clear he was not in pain, or suffering, and he was taking the opportunity to clear trauma, clear his angst in this life, and to leave this planet a clear ‘being’.

In the first two weeks of December I chatted with him and his human every day. Then for five days we chatted numerous times in a day, on the phone and also remotely. A week before Christmas last year, it was approaching the time for him to leave this plane. I was on the phone my end, his human was on the phone at their end, sitting on the floor with him, and he had his head laying on her lap.

His breathing was laboured and it was nearing his time to go. All three of us could see the light portal opening up for his spirit/soul to enter into. His ‘welcomers’ could only come so far down the portal and so were waiting above the Earth plane in the other realms. The portal remained open, and they waited until he was ready. A few minutes later he whimpered a bit and took his last breath and his spirit fully entered the light and the portal. It was moving and sad, but also very profound and peaceful.

Healing into Death

What a blessing it is to be able to be a part of such a beautiful journey towards death. In control and in choice. Able to heal as necessary and yet let go, as necessary too. Many people think that ‘Healing’ is about removing a health issue, but my work has proved to me that is not the case. ‘Healing’ takes many shapes and forms, and creating and holding a space that enables a person or animal to have quality of life, while doing what they need to before leaving this planet, is a profound form of Healing.

Tyson had been given the time by his human, and taken the time he wanted, to come to completion in this life. Every one of us, human and animal, has an inner knowing and knows what we need to do and what we want to do…we just need to be given that choice. He feels grateful for being given that time and it is his gratitude and his willingness to help others that is behind him asking me to share his story.

Communicating with Animals on the Other Side

Since his body expired, Tyson has come back to help his human on many occasions. He also talks to other dogs and has obviously connected with the big dog Deva in heaven, as often since Tyson’s death I have had unexpected and beautiful connections with dogs, who have made a beeline for me, to thank me and let me know how much that meant to him. He is also, still working to help others, and on my recommendation, he is currently interacting with a dog that is in a bit of bother with his human’s neighbours. Tyson is bringing him and the others into line in the gentlest possible way.

And of course, he is helping each of us right now by getting me to share his experiences. Tyson is hopeful that this story resonates with you, and will help you communicate with your pet, when they are sick or in need. He also hopes it will help you to provide a healing space for your furry friend and family member to help them complete their journey here, and leave the body and go into the light in the way he or she needs to.
