Spiritual Awakening & The Role of Our Animal Guides
Experiencing a spiritual awakening can feel like a lot of things. Eye-opening, life-altering, perspective-changing. The more we learn and grow spiritually, the more our lives will shift and change – sometimes in subtle, quiet ways, but more often in large, loud ways, leaving us overwhelmed. Without the right tools, guidance and support, your spiritual awakening can be a lot to navigate. You always have me as your guide in the process. But I wanted to remind you that you also have another type of guide available to you to support you on your journey – your animal guides.
Animals can show up from the Spirit realm to assist you in what you’re going through. They all represent certain qualities and possess different strengths and will usually arrive when you’re in need of that quality. For example, if you know you need to use your wit and act cleverly, a fox may be your guide. If you’re looking for extra strength or courage, a lion or bear may be the animal for that. You can uncover which animals are with you during meditation or channeled journaling. You can also speak to an intuitive that offers specific animal guide readings or, of course, book a reading with me!
While we can always connect into the Other side for animal beings to guide us, let’s chat now about living animals. These are the animals that are sent to us, to live amongst us in this life. Whether you have a pet that you love dearly, or are drawn to a certain kind of animal regularly, this is the animal that is here to guide, protect and ground you right now in your journey. These animals act as our bond to the Other side, our connector or transmitter, giving us strength to grow our spiritual connection and depth.
Early on in my career, I had dogs by my side. They protected and grounded me in my home, sending so much love when I needed it the most. Due to the kind of work I do and the fact that I host client sessions in my space, the amount of energy that came in and out, some of it heavy and dense, began, heartbreakingly, to make my dogs feel ill. I could see how incredibly empathic they were, how open and pure and connected to Spirit they were. They taught me so much. I have chosen right now to have another kind of animal as my familiar in my home. There is so much to learn from each unique animal we’re drawn to. My beta fish Cherry Bomb swims to the glass of the tank, wanting to be close to me when I’m in the room. I am open to receiving the wisdom from this little creature and the reminder that most times in life, all we can do is swim with the current and go with the flow.
Our animal guides find us when they are needed. I have heard many stories about how pet owners have found their beloved pets in a way that was synchronistic, all falling into place perfectly, as it was meant to. These animals will always find their way to us and are full of lessons, but also deep unwavering love, compassion and understanding. They remind us of how simple and beautiful life can be if we let ourselves see it. These animals are absolutely meant to be with you, to give you light and love as you grow in your spiritual awakening. They won’t always be with you. They will go back to their place on the Other side, but my advice to you is to keep your heart open for the next animal to walk (or swim!) into your life. They have so much more to offer you, too.
If you would like support in learning more about your animal guides or are looking for a mentor in your spiritual awakening, my readings and Evolve mentorship program are open for booking.
Love, Light & Angelic Blessings,
