More About Telepathic Communication

It is natural for clients to want to know if the communicator they are working with does indeed have a real connection with their animal companions. And often, as any professional communicator will tell you, this desire to know results in the client asking testing questions. Unfortunately, this type of question harms the connection they are trying to test. A better way to know that the communicator has a true connection is to ask honest, sincere, detailed questions and observe the answers. When a true connection exists, the entire conversation provides emotionally fulfilling and revealing insight into the animal’s experience of life. While this may not be empirically quantifiable, the satisfaction derived from such a conversation is unmistakable.

An interspecies communication session is a three-way conversation between the animal, the client, and the communicator. It is important that all three participate in the conversation and all have a desire for the free exchange of ideas, information, thoughts, and feelings.

In addition, it is helpful if the communicator’s primary intention is to be a conduit for any information or assistance that the client and the animal may need, rather than to have the notion that he or she is doing something helpful. And depending upon the communicator’s skills and knowledge, he or she may simultaneously act as an advisor, offering advice or assistance relevant to the issues that are being discussed – but this is only in addition to the primary role of the communicator, which is to interpret and translate the subtle perceptions received from the animal.

If any one of the three participants is not fully engaged in the conversation, the quality of the communication will suffer. If the animal is not interested in communicating for any reason, there will be nothing there for the communicator to convey to the client. If either the client or the communicator are distracted or not fully engaged in the interaction, the strength of the connection will diminish. If the communicator has a judgmental attitude toward either the client or the animal, the connection will be corrupted.

The full and honest participation by all three individuals is essential to successful communication. A strong connection usually grows stronger though the exchange of ideas and feedback – when this happens, the client feels an immediate sense of recognition of the truth and, on occasion, the animal may even display a recognizable response that is relevant to the conversation. Conversely, if any one of the three participants pulls back from the conversation in any way, the connection will immediately weaken or even be broken.

One way in which the client can interfere with the communication is to ask a testing question. A testing question is a question to which the client already knows the answer, but is trying to find out if the communicator can get the answer from the animal. The animal can usually feel that there is no emotional motivation to the question and may feel no need to answer. The client already knows the answer (to the question that was actually asked), and so has no true desire to hear the answer because the answer is already known.

Examples of possible testing questions are: What is his favorite treat? What game does she like to play? Did something unusual/scary/exciting happen yesterday? Of course, these examples could possibly be honest, legitimate questions if the client truly doesn’t know the answer and wants to understand. But if the client knows what the dog’s favorite treat is, knows the game the cat likes to play, or knows that a big tree fell in the yard yesterday and frightened everybody – and just wants to see if the communicator can get this information correctly, then the question is actually a dishonest one. The true question is – are you really talking to my animal? and it is being asked of the communicator, not the animal. This dishonesty, although almost always unwitting, interferes with the subtle telepathic connection which is based on trust, honesty, and empathy.

When a testing question is asked, the client’s focus is no longer on the animal, it has shifted to the communicator’s performance. This drastically changes the energetic setting of the conversation. The animal will feel the abrupt change in focus and will immediately become less attentive. The communicator will feel the change and notice that the connection has diminished, and perhaps even feel a natural anxiety as the focus shifts from the animal’s thoughts to his or her own performance.

Telepathic communication is based on a deep empathy – a sincere intention on the part of the communicator to fully put one’s own perception, desires, and opinions aside and perceive instead the experiences of the animal and to understand what he or she wants to communicate to the client. The client contributes to the connection by asking important, sincere questions to which he or she has a deep need to know the answer. By asking such heartfelt questions, the client helps to set up a vibration of trust and expresses a real longing for hearing the truth from the animal. Knowing that his or her feelings and experiences are of great importance, indeed are the very reason for the conversation, the animal almost always feels a keen interest and a real commitment to conveying his or her thoughts fully and truthfully. This is the setting in which meaningful and rewarding telepathic communication can occur.
