Talk2theAnimals Animal of the Week

by Janet on June 1, 2010

Prepare for fun, prepare for a good time, because our buddy Otter is visiting us this week!

Now just look at Otter’s picture…..don’t you already feel a smile coming to your face?  ;-)

Otter brings joy on all levels, inner, outer, spiritual, physical.  While Otter is attentive to all things which ask for his attention, he is not overwhelmed by them, nor does he take them too seriously.

Whether it’s earth or water, Otter feels at home in both elements.  Take a minute to playfully look at your environment: do you feel comfortable in more than one element?

Otter helps us to be children, no matter our age.  Otter would like us to remember (these are his words): “Remember that you are all children at heart.  So many of you humans play at being an adult, meaning you are acting like you think adults should act.  Where did that come from? (shaking his head) We otters have lots of fun AND we do what we need to do, as we need to do it. But we do it with a light heart, a light Spirit.  What happened to your light Spirit?”

Questions to ask when Otter shows up:

  • Am I working too hard?
  • Am I being called to be more creative?
  • What’s my light Spirit up to these days?

If you’re ready to lighten your burdens, create more freedom in your life, have a good time and discover delight and joy in life, call on Otter.  Otter is ready and willing to help you find fun!

Thank you Otter,  for your guidance and leadership, we delight in your presence with us!  For this and all you are, we are grateful.

Harmony,

Janet Roper

May 18, 2010

Recently my dog Max had a rough day. It started out innocuous enough.  He and Emmie were just going to get toenails clipped and then we were off to run errands. The groomer started with Max’s front paws and everything was fine.  She got to his back paws and Max had a meltdown. He was [...]

February 22, 2010

True confession – sometimes I get just gosh darn giggly happy when a certain animal appears in my life.  And that’s the way it is for me when Crow appears. My neighborhood is filled with crows and I can’t help but wonder if I moved here because of the crows that were already here, or [...]

Animal Communication is about HONOR

February 19, 2010

When we are in communication and connection with another creature, I see one of the foundational points as being in a place where we can honor that creature as well as ourselves.  It is when we have mutual respect that a relationship can be created from a place of power with, and not power over [...]
