Soul Spirit Animals: Communicating With Deceased vs Living Pets

soul spirit

Is There A Difference Between Animal Communication With Alive Versus Deceased Pets?

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard that there isn’t a difference between communicating with live animals versus animals who have transitioned or crossed over who are now in Spirit.

In my experience, that’s not true. There IS a difference, and it’s a distinctive, important one.

Some folks think that you can’t communicate with animals who’ve crossed over. Also untrue.

I even heard one person say that beings who die become demons. Why she thinks that, I still haven’t a clue. How can cute little big-hearted love of your life Fluffy, an angel, guide, healer, and teacher disguised as an animal and sent here as God’s gift to you, all of a sudden become evil just because they left their body when they passed away?  Again, UNTRUE.

Goodness, where do folks come up with this nonsense?!

I’ve also heard that some religious or spiritual gurus teach that animals don’t have souls or spirits. That couldn’t be further from the truth either. That idea comes from egocentric human arrogance. It’s based on outdated, narrow-minded notions about humans being the only (or highest level of) intelligent species on our planet. Again, UNTRUE, blatant nonsense designed to help humans feel superior.

Awakening to the true nature of the extraordinary range and variety of sentient intelligence in the world all around us, the “Divine” Soul Spirit in all living beings, is one of the most important things you can do in your journey to healing, growing and evolving into your highest, best Self.

What is the difference between communicating with physically alive versus deceased pets who’ve transitioned to the other side… and what is soul & spirit essence?

If you love animals, you’ll likely have experienced grief and sadness when they passed, and would love to reconnect with them.

You cared about their health and well-being when they were alive in a physical body. You still do even though they’ve made their transition.

Like you, their Soul Spirit continues. It is eternal and infinite.

What are they doing now? Where did they go? Are they still around?

Can they still hear you, and will they talk to you? When are they reincarnating if they are, and if they do come back, how can you find them again?

If you are learning how to communicate with a deceased pet, you need to know these things. There’s a lot of false teaching out there about this, so let’s set the record straight.

We are all multi-dimensional, spiritual, energetic Soul Spirit beings having physical experiences here on Mother Earth.

The above is true, without exception, for all beings regardless of body type. We are far more than our physical bodies appear to be, and we can choose body types depending on our reason for incarnating.

How do I know?

The reason I know this is true is that I’ve communicated with close to 100,000+ beings in all different body types, both living and in spirit form, and this is what they’ve taught me over and over again.

I cannot discount the truth of it, no matter what the religious or so-called spiritual gurus teach or what “holy” text it came from.

That means your Soul Essence Spirit existed long before the physical body.

The physical body also takes the genetic code given from the parents and creates itself, cell by cell.

soul spirit

Our physical form follows the energetics and Soul Spirit Blueprint, not the other way around.

You and your pet have also had experiences in this lifetime that shaped you mentally, emotionally, energetically, and physically. Those experiences partially formed and affected your personality.

However, you came into this body with a big part of your personality already established from past lives and experiences through your Soul’s evolution.

While living here incarnate (in a physical body), you have the fun of “driving” your body around, making it do things and go places so you can experience life on this planet, learn lessons to assist your evolution, which is the point of incarnating in the first place.

At some point, you’re complete with your purpose, and it’s time to go back to being a Soul Spirit without a body again, which is your true state of Beingness.

Communicating with a living animal means we have to account for all these things.

Of course, there are other differences between communicating with living physical animals and Soul Spirit animals. You can touch a living pet physically and energetically, sending and receiving messages telepathically (defined as intuitively sharing “energetic information” mind to mind, heart to heart).

Unlike a Soul Spirit animal, they have a body so they can communicate through body language and vocal expressions, and they can also be easily distracted by things going on around them, just as you can. They can also be affected by their environment – bad food, toxins, hormonal imbalances, genetic mutations, injuries and pain.

So be aware of that if you try to communicate with an animal in a physical body without getting their attention and focusing properly. I teach you how to do that in the Beginning Course.

Because you’ll not get very far if you don’t have a direct connection to them, heart to heart, mind to mind. It can be a very confusing and frustrating missed communication experience in that case.

Many things can affect and influence animal communication in a live animal.

Like you, an animal’s neurochemical makeup, current pain level, suffering, or exuberance can influence how they’re feeling in their body. When you are working with animal communication, you need to remember to allow for this. They can temporarily “forget” who they are and why they came here, just like you can.

Soul Spirits without a physical body don’t forget who they are. They have access to their total Soul Spirit’s wisdom and knowledge, past lives, other dimensions in time and space, and so much more.

Animals in a body can resonate more with what’s called their “lower Self,” just like you.

Lower Self means their ego influences them, their need to be safe in the moment, and their territorial concerns. Their emotions can be both “negative” and “positive,” not to mention their ‘stinking thinking’ or old programs.

Their body limits them in things they can and cannot do.

A Soul Spirit is in true Soul Essence form.

When you communicate with a Soul Spirit Being (one without a current body), they don’t have the physical body’s limitations anymore.

They are in true Soul Essence form and can go anyplace they want, whenever they wish – anywhere in space and time, and they can access other dimensions.

They are restored to their Higher Self knowing when they leave their physical body (unless they get stuck through trauma drama).

Animals aren’t afraid of death or dying; they know it’s simply the transitional phase of going to a sort of Spiritual Disneyland where they can choose their next experience for their Soul’s evolution, just like you can.

How to use animal communication to communicate with a Soul Spirit Being

  1. To communicate with a Soul Spirit Being, first get quiet and focus. Tune into your heart just like you do for a living pet.
  2. Next, call them vibrationally from your heart, with an image of them in your mind. It’s a bit like calling a friend on the phone. Your animal has a unique frequency signature.
  3. Feel your love for them, which is your connection to them and what sends up the beacon signal into the Universe so they can find you to reconnect and have a chat.
  4. Wait for them to connect back with you. It may take 30 seconds or less, or a few more minutes, depending on how far away their Soul Spirit is from you and what they’re doing. Be patient.

Like the sun exists even though you can’t see it 24 hours a day every day, trust that they’re there, and they will be glad to communicate with you no matter how long it’s been in linear time for you since they left.
