It was truly an honor to be part of the Animal Oracle Card Summit on Monday and Tuesday of this week hosted by Dr. Cara Gubbins. Though the free pass offer has expired, you can still purchase an all-access pass (which includes bonus interviews) if you’d like by clicking here.

I remember when I was watching a previous summit Dr. Cara did about animal communication, that I had a light bulb moment! Listening to the various speakers during that event, it was then I realized with another shot of confidence that there is a myriad of ways we can communicate with animals.

It is, along with what I learned through my relationship with my sweet Gidget, that inspired me to combine my love of animals, oracle cards, and helping people and animals live in harmony with each other, and my offering of oracle readings for pets and their humans.

I’ve personally experienced, as well as, with my clients, that when we tune into our animal friends, we are also tuning into ourselves, and together this is what can positively impact the lives of both two and four-legged in a transformational and beautiful way!

Inspired by this summit and my desire to be a guide for more pets and their human friends I put together this video to answer the question of what to expect during a reading. I hope it will help if you’ve been wondering this very thing.

Weekly Oracle Reading – Speaking Truth with Grace and Love

Posted by Barbara Techel

It feels wonderful to be back after a week in Sioux Falls, SD of camping, exploring many beautiful parks, and taking in the love and antics of animals – the penguins were my favorite!

Today’s reading I have you pick your card along with a general reading as that seemed to be a hit from two weeks ago when I did this, so I did this again. I also brought in some helpful energy from nature and as always, wisdom from an animal too.

Enjoy the first week of Fall!

A Magical Morning of Hearts and Dragonflies

Posted by Barbara Techel

Near the end of my morning walk today I was mulling over in my mind the interview I’ll be doing this afternoon with Dr. Cara Gubbins for the Animal Wisdom World Summit, which she has hosted for several years now. 

This year’s summit is all about connecting and healing with our animal friends. My talk is titled, “Healing with Our Pets.” I’ll also be doing a bonus interview on how oracle cards can guide healing and talking about my signature Wisdom in the Paws readings for people and their pets.

So onto the magic of my morning! As I gave thought to what I wish to share in the interview today, I was revisiting the many teachings I’ve received from dogs and other animals in the wild. As I glanced down, I saw this stone in the shape of a heart. This is something that happens on occasion for me and I now have a small collection of them.

And it never gets old. It always sends goosebumps up my spine. I know it’s a wink from the universe that I’m on the right path and a lovely reminder that following one’s heart is truly the way to live authentically. Besides the fact, I was thinking about animals which always fills my heart with pure love!

I almost left the stone behind. But then I said silently, “What are you doing Barb?! You need to take the stone home.” I saw in my mind’s eye how lovely it will be to have it sitting on my desk next to my computer as I do the interview today. And so I carried it home.

Stepping onto the front stoop and just as I reached out to grab the handle to the front door a dragonfly landed on my hand. It sat there for a few moments as I experienced goosebumps go up my spine again. It then fluttered away, but only to return when I tried to grab the handle of the door again. It was as if it was asking me to just stop a moment and appreciate what had unfolded with my discovering the heart-shaped stone that had happened just a short five minutes before.

After it flew away a few moments later, I was called to revisit a postcard I have on my bulletin board in my writing cottage. It’s about Dragonfly and I received it from my friend, Dawn a few Christmas seasons ago.

I was drawn to this line: “Dragonflies connect us to other dimensions, open communication with nature spirits and help us recall our dreams…Dragonfly teaches us to see beyond the ordinary…”

The stone in a shape of a heart on the ground being there at that moment I was revisiting all the teachings from my animal friends, was no doubt a nod from each of them that they heard me and are supporting me from the other side.

Dragonfly showed up to reinforce this teaching for me and its persistence to be still so I could take that into my being what had unfolded during the last part of my walk. How often we are in that moment of magic, but quickly dismiss it as we make plans for the day. But dragonfly was encouraging me to linger in the connection of nature and the animals that now reside in another dimension.

And to remember this is our true nature – these encounters out in the world that you can’t possibly make happen – but that flow in abundance when we stay open to all the possibilities.
