Communicating With Animals in Spirit, How Far Back Can You Go?
One of my favorite kinds of students are the ones who ask thoughtful questions — the kind that open new doors of understanding and growth.
Because if you don’t ask, how will you learn or improve your abilities? And just as important: Who are you asking?
Asking someone with 30 years of experience in the field will get you much further than asking someone at the local diner who’s just sharing opinions. If you’re heading in the wrong direction, going faster won’t help.
So let’s talk about a really great question a student named Margaret asked:
“Is there a timeline for how far back you can go to communicate with animals in spirit?”
Before I answer…

Now, back to Margaret’s question…
First, let’s clarify something important: Who are animals, really?
Animals, like humans, are spiritual beings having a physical experience. They’re intelligent, emotional, and deeply connected to their soul’s journey.
When their physical body dies, their soul doesn’t disappear — it simply transitions. Think of it like taking off an old, worn-out coat or stepping out of a car that no longer runs.
And here’s where it gets fascinating: Time doesn’t exist in the spirit realm. It’s just something we use here on Earth to organize our lives. According to quantum physics, time is a linear construct — but when it comes to communicating with souls, it doesn’t apply.
So… how far back can you go?
In my experience, there is no limit to how far back you can communicate with an animal who has crossed over.
I’ve connected with animals who passed just days ago, and others who transitioned more than 50 years ago — some even during the moment of their passing.
But is it harder the longer it’s been?
Sometimes. Especially if the animal has already reincarnated or lived multiple lives since your time together. Or if they’re currently living a new life with someone else.
But “harder” doesn’t mean “impossible.”
Is grief a barrier to communication?
Yes, it can be.
When you’re grieving, your heart is heavy, your energy scattered. You’re feeling so much pain that it becomes hard to be still enough to sense the connection.
It’s not that your animal doesn’t want to talk to you, it’s just harder for you to receive the
Is it Different Communicating with Animals in Spirit?
Yes, it is.
Many students wonder if animal communication changes once an animal has crossed over. The answer is absolutely yes, and it’s something I cover in depth in my Advanced Course and in our Masterclasses on soulmates, transition, reincarnation, and soul circles.
When an animal is in spirit, the way we connect with them shifts. The energy is different. The conversation is more subtle. But it can be just as real, and just as healing as communicating with animals in physical form.
Inside the Animal Talk Coaching & Mastery Club, we explore this deeply. Each month we feature a new Animal Teacher, and many of them are in spirit. During our Live Q&A Coaching Calls, I guide students through the process of connecting with these animals so they can feel the difference for themselves.
These sessions are all recorded and available in our members-only Treasure Vault, ready for you to listen, learn, and experience anytime.

As one of my dear students, Nita, shared:
“Extremely privileged to be studying with Val… She is the first teacher to emphasize that animal communication is not just that, but a spiritual journey to make us better people, to heal, evolve, and grow. She gives us the best possible resources and guides us personally every step of the way.”
Aww… thanks, Nita! 💖
