A Workshop in Animal Communication

I enrolled in a weekend workshop in animal communication a few years ago, being taught by Danielle MacKinnon. I had no idea what it would be about, but anything involving animals would be fun. Since the location was three hours from my home, I stayed in the area for the three days, leaving my dog, Simon, and my bearded dragon, Lizzy, home with my husband, Fred.

The Friday night session was an interesting introduction to animal communication. But the Saturday session was actually learning some simple animal communication techniques. It was amazing what skills we all learned. That night, when I called Fred to see how things were at home, he told me he’d had the worst night ever. Simon spent the night howling, crying, and looking for me. He had Fred up all night and Fred was now a mess, anticipating a second night of it.

After the phone callended I thought about a technique from Danielle’s class. Using that technique, I communicated with Simon, in my head, and gave him this simple message: I’ll be back tomorrow before your supper. But tonight, to help you feel better, I want you to sleep on the bed with Fred. Put your back right up against Fred’s back and you’ll be okay. That’s all I said, no deep philosophical meandering, just that simple message.

I called Fred the next morning before driving to the final workshop session. Fred was relieved – Simon slept through the night. In fact, Fred he slept on the bed and kept his back right up against Fred’s back. That made a believer out of me. And when I got home and told Fred about my message to Simon, it made a believer out of Fred.

My animal communication since that time back in 2016

I’ve furthered my animal communication education with Danielle MacKinnon. I’ve had animal communication sessions with my friends’ pets, with strangers’ pets, and with my pets. And I’ve been able to explain some strange pet behaviors to the bewildered owners, like the dog who was eating the car seat belts and the very old cat who just needed to be held and danced around the room. I’ve met some very funny animals and some very serious ones, but they all had one thing in common: they all wanted to communicate with me to let their owners know why they are here and what lesson they have for them.

I’ve also been able to connect with all of my pets that have passed on, including my bearded dragon, Lizzy, who died last month. What a comfort that has been. They are all still with me and still happy to communicate. Lizzy still wants to be on my shoulder with her head tucked into my neck – and she’s still a tad goofy, just like she was in life. Barney, who died in 2002, still spends the evening on the floor next to my side of the bed. Daisy has finally admitted that she was a real bitch (in both senses) but had to be that way. And they will all be happy to welcome me when it’s my time. I thank the day I read the course list in the Omega Institute catalog and found animal communication.
