So uh, I guess the cat is out of the bag (pun intended).
I can communicate with animals! 🐈⬛
🤷♀️
No biggie.
ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME!?! Of course it’s a big deal!!!! 😁
It began several years ago when I started connecting with my cats, but shortly afterwards I went to Sea World and started communicating with the Orcas too!
(Yeah, I know - Sea World. 😕 I had free tickets and some questions I wanted to ask the Orcas. I didn’t know if it was even possible for me to connect with them, but in the very least, I knew I could hold sacred space and send all of the marine life there, healing energy.)
I learned a lot from that first conversation - most of which is outside the scope of this post, and definitely something I plan to share at another time. But one of the things they told me that first day, is that they like the sound, or frequency, of my soul. 🌈 It’s kind of how they can find me, if that makes sense, or how we can ‘hear’ each other.
I go much more often now, and of course I always make time for the Orcas! 😉 I send them healing energy and I try to connect. Sometimes that is easier than others, but I always try!
On a recent visit, I went to visit the Orcas straight away, but as soon as I sat down - I felt immense sadness. l had a very difficult time connecting because of this, and mostly just focused on providing as much healing energy as possible.
It was nearing the end of the show, when I was finally able to get through a little and I asked the Orcas for guidance on how best to help them.
They encouraged me to remember what they told me at our first meeting- about why they liked me / how they could hear me.🌈
‘Singing the song my soul sings’ - to the best I am able- is what helps them the most!
Now, I’m not sure what makes your soul sing, but for me it’s love!! ♥️ And in the midst of feeling such great sadness it was hard to make my soul sing, but I understood the assignment.
For the rest of the afternoon, I tried my best to let my soul sing but it was very people-y at the park that day. I was feeling a lot of anxiety and left over sadness that I was desperately trying to ignore.
I tried my best to rise above my emotions and hold the frequency of love, but in my human-ness, I was falling short. I knew I needed help, so I invited Spirit ♥️ the source of all love ♥️ to take over.
Our day was coming to a close, and we were walking through some shops - headed towards the front of the park. While my family shopped for a bit, I stepped outside to catch some fresh air. As I did, I could feel a wave 🌊 of happiness coming from the Dolphin Nursery area, and I knew I needed to investigate the source of such vibrant energy that had cut through my anxiety.
As I waited outside the store for my family, I was distracted by an alarm going off on my watch. It was 8:55pm Sunday night, and that was the weekly alarm I had set to remind me of my 9pm Earth Healing meditation time.
‘Well,’ I thought, ‘I’ll be walking out to the car in a few minutes & will probably be distracted. I’ll just send Earth some healing ✨energy right now while I’m waiting and hope that everything I did earlier with the Orcas will count for something too.’
My family found me shortly after. I told them about the happiness I could feel, and we walked towards the Dolphin Nursery. I found a place to sit by the glass and practiced singing my soul’s song.🌈
I just knew something was going to happen!! I could feel it!
To be honest, I always want something to happen, so after a few minutes of nothing happening, I stood up, resigned. I knew my family was anxious to get going.
Then I heard, "Be patient!” So I sat right back down!! (Wouldn’t you?!?)😉
Almost immediately, a dolphin swam up to me and thus began one of the most profound moments of my life!!!! 🐬
It was incredible!!!! 🩵
At first, I thought maybe she had fallen asleep. (Dolphins sleep with only half a brain at a time - so only one eye is closed.) I thought maybe the eye I could see looking at me, was the awake half, but she answered my thought by turning her head so I could see that both eyes were open!!! 😳
Luckily, my husband started recording at some point and captured the last 4 minutes, of the 6-7 minute interaction.
I couldn’t believe this was actually happening!!! I was in shock and cried tears of joy throughout the experience!! 🥲
I tried to include a little girl, who had come to sit by the glass next to me, when I noticed her concern & confusion over my tears. I told the young girl that the dolphin liked her dress and THEN THE DOLPHIN MOVED TO GET A BETTER LOOK AT IT!!!! 😮
A minute later, when I said it for a second time, the dolphin EVEN NODDED ‘YES’!!!!! 🤯😳😱
You see, the dolphin understood what I was doing by trying to include the girl, because she is the matriarch of the group she is with!!! (Sea World named her, ‘Dash’.)
One of the things Dash shared with me that evening, was the reason for the happiness that had originally summoned me over in the first place!! One of the youth, had accomplished something important and there was a sense of joy and celebration among the pod! 🩵🐬🩵
Everything changed for me that day!! I learned so many profound truths about Spirit, myself, the world, & indeed - even the universe! I’m STILL unraveling, learning, and integrating it all.
But I can’t stop thinking about the wisdom the Orcas shared with me!🌈
I try to sing the song of love as best as I am able, but man! Sometimes that’s hard!! Really hard! Especially now, when there’s so much to be worried or angry about.
My time working with animals has taught me that it’s ok to feel your feelings. In fact, emotion is just another form of information.
So go ahead, acknowledge how you feel and thank your body for its wisdom.
Then, when you are able to, release the fear and focus on love. ♥️
Ask Spirit for help, if you need it.
Feel into who you truly are, and then fall back into the potential of the fullest love you are able to share in that moment!
🌈 Sing your Soul’s Song & find the thread of love that connects us all.
♥️🌎💙🐬🩵
**P.S. A few days after my experience with Dash, I noticed the time stamp on the video. It was 9:04 pm, exactly during my weekly Earth Healing meditation time! This is a huge sign for me that what we do truly matters!!! ♥️ The love, prayers, and good vibes are absolutely working!! I’d like to take this opportunity to reiterate my call for your help. Please read my blog post TDWTC to learn how you can participate! 💙🌍💚
💗Big Love & Many Blessings🌸
