    Resetting your Relationship with Cat-ness: Generally and Specifically (Part 2 of 2)

    en-usNovember 28, 2019

    About this Episode

    Ah, the magical, mysterious nature of Cat draws us in and at the same time makes us aware of our own wild nature. Which, for humans, can be quite a challenge. After all, we're more comfortable with other species if we perceive we have control over them. The key with Cat is letting them press against the boundaries you set for them so that they feel comfortable. And not taking it personally when they do press. Consistency matters as well as releasing any expectations you may have about how they are with you. When you follow their lead, everything is possible!

    Rewilding Ourselves Through Nature: You Do You

    Rewilding Ourselves Through Nature: You Do You

    The wild aspect of ourselves, aka, the apex predator part of ourselves, desperately needs an outlet for expression and a sustainable Wild mirror in our environment.  In today's podcast, there are several directions you could go all depending on how it feels to you.  This might take the form of visiting a national urban refuge location that has been "re-wilded" and given back to Nature with native flora and fauna now flourishing. It could be that you orchestrate hunts for other apex predators; take care that you don't project your prey status onto them as the reason for this rewilding. Lastly, begin to see the intricate balance in the Wild and that we're the morons doing the managing of that which doesn't need to be managed at all.

    Is It Your Imagination or Universal Guidance? RSVP or 'Again'!

    Is It Your Imagination or Universal Guidance? RSVP or 'Again'!

    Translated from the French, RSVP is "respond if you please"; children have their way of asking for a repeat of something which is "again!", especially if they're having fun. It's no coincidence that "clair" is French for clear as in clear hearing (clairaudience), etc. If it is not clear to you what the information is, ask for it to be repeated. Just know that your free will is a maxim (general truth) on planet Earth that will always be honored (dang it!), and that as always, your choices reign supreme.

    What Would Your Power Plant Be?

    What Would Your Power Plant Be?

    The title is tongue in cheek, of course, because all of the Plants would love to partner with you, just as all the Animals do. No "power" or "totem" Plant/Tree/Animal is necessary for your form to follow its function on Earth per the planet's design. All forms have an underlying commonality of how our support systems are structured so that we can more easily see the overall collective function of balance and partnership.

    Bandwidth Narrowing in Aging for All Species

    Bandwidth Narrowing in Aging for All Species

    Our vocalizations/language have so many generation-specific idioms and slang, that it's no wonder other species can't understand us. Leave it to the Animals to provide the perfect metaphor for the body's aging, when we may not understand the repetition of actions that soothe or new fears coming to light. It's just another phase in our journey together on Earth.

    Your Unified Duality: Thinking About Emotions

    Your Unified Duality: Thinking About Emotions

    We're taught as human Animals to hold the brain above the heart and to elevate thoughts above emotions. It may sound counterintuitive, but the more you think about what you're feeling and why, the closer you can shift to a more comfortable middle ground. This won't stop feelings or thoughts from being present;  it will help you to feel better and more secure in human Animal experience, which is the whole point of your being here on Earth. Serve yourself first!

    One Fight Away From Sitting at the Kids' Table

    One Fight Away From Sitting at the Kids' Table

    We sometimes don't see our available options during the holi-daze, especially during family get togethers. You get to choose to follow the lead of your body and excuse yourself should it all get to be a bit too much. Join me over at the kids' table where funny jokes and peals of laughter are worthy of celebration.  Or, see if you can find a like-minded kid at the adults' table to shift the Energy!

    Unconditional Love Doesn't Mean Zero Boundaries

    Unconditional Love Doesn't Mean Zero Boundaries

    As sentient beings, your "pet" is entitled to have boundaries in your relationship with them that are respected and honored. Just as you want them to respect and honor your boundaries. When any relationship on Earth has good boundaries, those in that relationship feel respected, cherished, and deeply loved. Your Animal family members deserve only the best from you - make it so.

    The Trickster Energy of AI: Outcome TBD

    The Trickster Energy of AI: Outcome TBD

    AI in this case means Artificial Intelligence and because it's trickster Energy, it could also mean human-Animal Intelligence. After all, we created AI in our world to do good things for our species; what about other species? Crow thinks its outcome is 'to be determined' as it could be either/or both a prank we play on ourselves as well as hold the gifts of the future.

    *The term is an agglomeration of diverse clusters, not diverse cultures. Crow Energy took it one step too far, my apologies, although perhaps it's same/same!

    ** I used a new microphone this time, let me know what you think!

    All Animals Deserve Our Inalienable Human Animal Rights

    All Animals Deserve Our Inalienable Human Animal Rights

    It's fairly stunning when an allegedly sentient and intelligent species such as ours says to other species - "Oh, we'll give you your rights and we're going to be clear that they're not human rights." Such is the Non-Human Rights for Animals project titled. Borrowing from our Declaration of Rights/Independence would solve this issue neatly: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all Animals are created equal, that they are endowed with certain unalienable Rights, and that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Joy."

    Adoption Energy Ripples: Mind Those Waves

    Adoption Energy Ripples: Mind Those Waves

    The movement of energy waves both before and after the adoption of a companion Animal can range from a babbling brook to class 5 whitewater rapids. Based on (to humans) unseen soul contracts, these ripples may seem like you've gotten what you saw or may make you say "Did I really ask for this?!" Roll the dice, take it as it comes, and be a good guardian of both human and Animal family members.
