All blog postings are channeled information, guidance, and resources from both the animals and a collective of soul guides. Every message is communicated with great earnestness and compassionate wisdom for all of us. When they really want to emphasize something, it is repeated or in bold or all caps. They are often very straightforward and have a sense of urgency in sharing and connecting with us. It is always communicated with deep compassion and want of helping us to remember and connect with all of our soul truths - and filled with a lot of heart, humor, and possibility.

A few months ago I heard a story on NPR about the alarming number of whales washing up ill, injured, and severely underweight on our shores. In the past few weeks, there have been even more reports of whale deaths and strandings with the primary causes being ingestion of plastic, sea vessel collisions, and malnutrition. About 71 percent of the Earth’s surface is water and of that, the oceans hold about 96 percent of all Earth’s water. So, if the largest inhabitants of our largest Earth space are washing up dead in great numbers that’s surely a red flag for them, for us, for all.

This really got me thinking about how desperate they must feel individually and in trying to draw our attention to the plight of our planet. In the tradition of animal medicine wisdom, where each type of animal carries a certain medicine or knowledge, the whales are the record keepers. They are the swimming libraries of our history on the Earth and master teachers of soul purposed sustainability. They have seen and weathered and know all of the changes our planet and all of its inhabitants have been through since the beginning of time. I picture them as the Buddhas of the sea and their chant, their song is constantly trying to realign us, to connect us all. Just think about how mesmerizing, enchanting, and healing the sounds of whales are, right? So, who better to have a chat with about how we can help them and everyone on our precious planet. I hope you enjoy their deep wisdom and compassion and that you feel that resonance with your soul in their song.

When I connected with them to ask why this is happening and what we can do, they immediately showed me an image of many, many boats and people and chaos on the water. Tourist boats, fishing boats - both small and giant - massive cargo ships, speed boats, pleasure crafts (as they call them), ski doos, etc. Like a giant chaotic amusement park for people on the water. And them being confused, not knowing where to go, trying to dodge all of this, and to connect with us at the same time to calm us down and stop it, but we’re too loud to hear them. “To ground you”, they said. “Just like a boat runs aground”. They said, “We’re not eating - while tourists are watching us, while people are fishing, while you’re killing and poisoning our home and food supply. We can’t eat when you’re in our feeding ground. And you can’t "BE FED" either. Your insatiability for chaos and malnourishment of the spirit."

They are reminding me here of the biblical story of Jonah and the whale. That he was “in the belly” of the whale for three days. Jonah was called by God to be a prophet, but refused to accept his divine mission and left for a voyage at sea. The whales gave me a strong feeling and visual of this belly of the whale meaning. It is a great, peaceful, time out space to be calm and listen versus following the chaos outside. A place of great wisdom, support, protection, and knowingness. Gee, I wonder if that sounds familiar to any of us who have been fearful of or distracted from our divine purpose? ;) How nice would that be to have a time out of all of the noise, distraction, and chaos and see it for what it really is and us for who we really are. This is their gift to us.

They continued, “It is good that you want to see us and connect with us, but you cannot see us just as you want to see us. To be entertained. You have to really SEE us for it to work, you see? See how this isn’t working? You are not really seeing us and what we need - it is not FEEDING both of us - you or us - so it can’t work. And when it doesn’t work, it is life-taking, it is that critical that you get this. We - you and us - are both missing out. Us on physical sustenance and you on spiritual sustenance from us - they are connected. Yes, be excited to see us and to see others. But SEE them, us, as they truly are - not as or what purpose you want them to be. That is life-taking, for you both. You can always tell when it isn’t working, when you aren’t seeing what is real because there will be grave - “of the grave” - consequences. And that is what is happening know with us - and with you. It is very easy to follow, so please don’t delude yourselves. That kind of “seeing” is not connection, it is of the disconnect, the separate, the separation of real, of truth. Yes, we want to see you and teach you, but we cannot be this kind of entertainment for you. That is entertainment of the mind, not of the soul."

"Think about that and how you use that word. To “entertain” the idea of something. That usually means to think about something in a new way, with a new perspective and possibility. And that is what we are asking for here too. We are showing you a great example of this. To really look at what you are doing, look at it all connected, not as separate. Not as, oh I want to do this, so I'm not going to look at that - that negative consequence for others or for myself, because ultimately it is. It all comes back to self, so it is not good for you either. You cheat yourselves out of real connection with this type of “entertainment” with us and with others, and even with yourselves individually. You cheat yourselves out of possibility and going beyond what you want to be true, but isn’t. That will never serve you and it will never serve us. And it has to be that which works for all. We are DESPERATELY trying to show you this. Don’t cut yourselves off - from each other, from us, from our planet. You must think about the consequences of your actions - those that you can easily see and those that you can’t. You cannot pretend that it is all not there. You are seriously cheating and depriving yourselves if you do - just as we are being cheated and deprived of our food. Look at it all together, that’s how it works. Nothing is separate, nothing. And look at all of the good and safety and healing that creates. This lack of separation. This willingness to see it for what it is and not separate it out, to separate yourselves out, to separate from us."

"If you want connection with us, you must realize for your sakes and ours, that it goes beyond the physical. Far beyond the physical. And we are teaching you that. That you can see much more beyond the physical. And you don’t have to physically see us or be with us to really SEE us. We are that connected. It is that strong and real and present and we are reminding you of that. Again, yes we are happy that you want to ‘see’ us with your eyes and we understand that can be inspiring to you and we appreciate that. But, this is a greater lesson here. You must be wiling to SEE more, as more, in a more expanded way for this to work with us, for us, and for you, all of you. When you do, THAT IS TRUE INSPIRATION - of the spirit - and it is an even stronger and deeper connection. Much more beyond the physical. We really want you to get that. We all do and we all do it in different ways for your understanding. It is critical this message and you must act on it, now. You must remember this connection, this greater SEEING of each other for all of us to thrive. What could be more entertaining than that? Entertain the idea of that, of seeing what is really there."

"How many mis-takes, grievances, regrets, and damage could that save you and us and the planet? Think about when you learn something and how grateful you are to be able to see it, another person, us, a planetary or justice issue clearly and then know what you can do or not do about it. Let’s entertain that, a world of clarity for and of all. You wouldn’t mis-take another person as something they are not and end up feeling hurt and betrayed over something that is not real. You wouldn’t feel lost when someone is no longer in the physical realm, thinking they are gone which is not real. You wouldn’t feel anxious or panicked about those of us in your homes, because you would be able to see and hear us all clearly. You wouldn’t always be saying, I don’t know what to do, I wish I knew what to do, tell me what to do because you being unknowing is unreal too."

As a long time vegan and professional animal advocate, they often give me generous, personal, tuned in messages within their communications for my growth and to share with others. So, here’s a nugget of wisdom that they shared directly with me at this point in our conversation. They said, “This is how you think about veganism now. That it is impossible to not know the impact, the issues, etc. because the information is out there, all of the time, it is readily available. People cannot separate it out any longer and claim ignorance of the suffering and how this isn’t working for anyone. The repercussions are enormous and vivid. So you know, and then you choose. You cannot pretend any longer, there is no time for that and there never was. It is just reaching a magnitude of such great capacity now that you can’t do damage control any longer. It is real and present and killing all of us and our planet too. It is a life-taker, so you know it is not working. So you do know, you really do. You just don’t know, what else? What else do you do. But even that is not true, because alternatives have been around forever and you’re overflowing with them now. And isn’t that word ‘alternative’ funny and bizarre to use - that that truth and the right and the connected seems, is deemed your ‘alternate’, the alternative? Who decided that? That you don’t get to use and be the real, the right, the connected. That it got pushed aside as your ‘alternate’, the thing you’ll use if you really have to, if the primary choice can’t be there or doesn’t work. How backwards is that and see what has happened, is happening because of it. Who shoved the truth out of your minds and hearts and hands and how did you allow it to happen? Fear, it’s fear.”

“Someone introduced fear and this invited in the separation that started to split everything apart - us from you, you from each other, from the planet - and blind everyone to everyone and everything else. This deep, great, handed down fear because someone decided to operate outside of the truth and it all became tangled and disconnected - just as you are now and just as we are from you by you. Fear became your field of vision and anything outside of that then seemed scary and unreal. The fear washed through and divided everything - even within your individual selves. Just look at how you battle your own minds. (Said with ferocity of intent and sadness and take personal responsibility, now) That should tell you all you need to know, if you are split within yourselves. Just look at your suicide and homicide rates, these mass shootings, and how that is glamorized, tantalized, and gossiped about in the media - your “entertainment”. WATCH WHAT YOU ARE WATCHING.”

“That includes how you watch us and others - all species, all of us. It is desensitizing. De-sense-itizing. Shutting down your senses, your reactivity, your capability, your possibility with more fear. The fear is paralyzing, even when you don’t see or choose to see it that way, it is. It numbs and dumbs you down. You may call it being tough or cavalier or protective, but it’s separating. Separating you from your senses, your sensory capacity, your multi-sensory selves. And it is separating you from us. If you can’t see and be yourselves this way, then you will also see and believe us as desensitized - not full sensory, feeling, wise, intelligent. And we become entertainment to you, for what you want us to be - just as you do with other people. You see and use them and are seen and used by them at this desensitized level. And that is life-taking, the “-cides”, that is where it all steps in with its separation - of self, of senses, of consequences, of connection. You feel disconnected, then you act disconnectedly. You have nothing to connect with, then you feel you have nothing to lose. You don’t feel, so you disconnect more in your thoughts, actions, politics, issues, identities, personas, etc. Any group set up to keep out another and separate is the disconnect. And it is a thing of danger, a hazard, and must be looked at as such. This is real and will save you all, save us all, together.”

“The connected, the real, the true needs no ‘alternate’, no alternative and you wouldn’t want it. As any alternative to this is limited and lying and small and dangerous. Don’t put yourselves in danger. Don’t put us in danger. Connect it all. It all comes from there, your reality. Be real and allow us to be the same, so we can teach and help you in the way that we both need, THAT WE BOTH ARE. Don’t limit that in yourselves, in us, in others. Let it all, let us all, thrive. Don’t slip back into that fear of what's not real. Look at the energy it takes for us to breach ourselves, to break out of the water - and it gives us energy. We can do it because of that, that perspective - that gives us breath! And you can too, breathe it in, breathe into it, expand into it. You must expand beyond what you already know and see, because you can. That is what you are meant to do. You can and you must. The time is now. There is no alternative. START IT NOW.”
