This article has an element of homework to it, as we seem to have a little more time available these days.
Have you ever wondered why an animal has come into your life?
Ever wondered why a particular animal spirit keeps appearing I your life?
There is always a reason, sometimes it is just a simple message and other times it is deep soul contract, life changing stuff!
Quite often animals choose you, they are in your life to assist you in evolving in some way. Sometimes we get an animal thinking that we will be changing their life, only to realise that their presence has completely transformed ours! Usually for the better.
These lessons can show up in a myriad of ways.
How and when you met the animal, your beginning story. Did you rescue your animal? Did they just show up one day? Where else is this prevalent in your life? Is there a pattern?
Mirroring; the animal will mirror the behaviours of the human or mimics the situation. It can be profound when you recognise this
Modelling; where the animal has the opposite energy to the human. EG: a hyperactive dog with a chilled human.
Expectations; You think the relationship will be one way and it turns out the exact opposite. This is often the case if the human gets another dog after theirs has passed away. All animals have their own unique personalities.
Sickness and disease; it is astounding the amount of animals I meet with the same illness as their guardians. From cancer to asthma I’ve seen it all.
Now you get the general idea here is the homework aspect;
1. Choose an animal to work with (they can be living or passed over). Who has had a huge impact in your life?
2. Using this list above decide how this animal is working with you
3. When you think of this animal what emotions do they evoke?
4. How do you feel around this animal?
5. How do you feel when you are not around this animal?
6. Do your feelings ever change? For example pure love, frustration to anger
It is important to answer these questions honestly as you can, you may be amazed at some of these first insights. It’s okay if some of the answers are positive and negative; it is the challenges that help us grow the most.
Now that you have figured out how the animal is getting your attention here is your set up statement template:
Name of the animal:
Action:
To help me learn:
By making me feel:
Improving what area of my life?:
Obviously you can use this method over and over again; I encourage you to do so. Understanding the purpose of an Animal in your life can be life changing. There is always opportunity for growth, and animals tend to give us the master class. Sometimes the lesson is as simple as letting go.
Dora’s purpose in my life has been multi-layered. Mostly it was to remind me of my Master-plan ( This was Dora's exact phrasing, I had to look it up, I understood the premise, just never heard it phrased like that before) and to keep me on track; our current learning is life balance and the importance of taking time out.
Look forward to connecting
