Stars of Celestial Waters through Rochelle Sparrow

Hi Rochelle-

I was wondering if you might answer a question or two for me.

My parents are both deceased. Recently, I have been having many vivid dreams about my father. However, in my dreams it seems I seek him out but can never quite make contact with him. It is just a dream, but still frustrating as there was so much unresolved between us. I wonder if there is some message he is trying to convey, and I’m just not able to understand. I never got to know him too well in this life, and just want to feel that connection with him if possible. What can I do to become more receptive? Many changes are evolving in my life right now and I would like to know if there are any spirit energies around me that can give me that support I need right now and that I can connect with.

Thanks for your time, and for any thoughts.

Best regards,

Ron

Dear Ron:

Thank you for sharing and yes, I do think you can make a connection. The guides state:

You are correct to pay attention to your dreams. Your father is coming through and your mother will someday soon as well. You are aware that he has certain regrets (abandonment is the energy) in how he related to you. He now wishes to have reconciliation with you but you must understand and know (we suggest) that you come to terms with a greater understanding: his regrets stem from his being on our side. He was not able to see and understand his withdrawn, detached behavior on your side as problematic. He did not care for you in a proper manner because of his unresolved issue with (alcohol is the energy than father energy coming in which could indicate he had alcoholic father). His own father was quite abusive and obstructed a hones relationship with him (got lying as an energy). Your father therefore, was not able to form a honest relationship with you and continually told you parts of truths rather than the totality of the truth itself. Your father now sees that he obstructed himself from great love. He regrets his decision. He comes through to let you he is healing. He wants to heal his relationship with you.

Blessings, Stars

Dear Stars:

After more than 20 years as a single mom, I now find myself an empty-nester. I am enjoying the “me time” and now that I have more freedom, I am ready for more from life. I feel like there’s so much more that I can offer, but I can’t seem to get myself out of the rut. I want to find both love and job fulfillment, but with each attempt, I hit a brick wall. Do your Guides have any advice on how I can reach my potential in both arenas?

Thank you,

JMH

Dear JMH:

Thank you for coming to us. This is an important question, a situation many woman experience. Here is what the guides say:

You are correct to know and understand that meditation is key here. Your being has disregarded your interests for many years. You are correct to delve into your interests. (Writing is the energy.) You are correct to regain interest in and within novel. Your being does have aptitude for explaining mysteries and solving mysteries. Why not make your interest a vocation rather than hobby? You have ability to be able to become successful in this arena. We suggest you join writing group (a nurturing group) and think of a plan to regain (restart is the energy) your novel. Think also what you want to do can be completed. Your stories can help people understand their relationship with themselves and their families in connection to love and to spirit. You can finish what you set out to accomplish and you can reach success. That is the correct way.

Blessings, Stars

Hello,

I’d like to please ask when will I be in a romantic relationship or renew a love affair with the biracial man I love. I think he is my twin flame (he is a Scorpio) and it is hard to get things off the ground.

Thank you so much, and have a wonderful week! Julie

Dear Julie:

Remember, all relationships start from the inside out. Thank you for trusting us.

Here is what they say:

You are correct to move ahead in discovering what leads you into a pattern of situations that keep you involved with individuals who are not of trust. Now this not of your fault or of your doing, but of the unconscious unresolved issues from child hood which kept mother at a distance due to feeling she was not of trust. (very loud) you had to do so because mother was alcoholic (is the energy) and not able to move into healing for herself because she was not willing to move out of denial regarding her disease. You, however, can now see the issues of trust due to the pattern of relationships in your life, which are not of trust. We suggest to move into a psycho social support group, such as Al Anon. In doing to, you receive healing. It is the focus upon yourself which now must happen (we suggest) for your healing to happen.

Interview with Animal Communicator and Author Karen Anderson

by Annette Munnich

Annette: I know this is a general question Karen, but what kinds of things do you think our pets wish we understood about them?

Karen Anderson: First and foremost that they have needs that may be different than our needs.  We sometimes forget they are animals and have a need for being the dog or cat or horse that they are.  We tend to ‘humanize’ them and don’t give their biological, physical or emotional needs priority. I run into a few clients who make sure they are meeting their animal’s requirements but most of us have a long way to go in this area. As much as we like to think of them as our babies we need to remember that they have animal needs too.  Boredom is the number one source of behavior problems.  Make sure you provide good physical and mental stimulation and you will have a harmonious animal family. Brain challenges such as putting part of your dog’s daily ration of kibble in a treat ball. They have to roll it around to get their food.  If you have indoor cats then you are their entertainment center. Make sure you are providing them with something fun, interesting and different.  Don’t leave the same old stuff out.  Cats get bored in about 5 minutes. Rotate empty boxes, bags with no handles or empty cartons for them and take some away to be reintroduced later.  Be creative, most cats are happy with the lid from the hairspray bottle or a ball made out of foil.

Annette: Besides feeding, petting and playing with our animals what other ways can we use to reassure and express our love?

Karen Anderson: Stop stressing out about your animals!  Stress and worry are negative emotions and send out negative waves to our animals.  Turn that negative wave into a positive by shifting your perspective.  I challenge you to stop right now and think of what you are stressing about over an animal. Perhaps an illness, a behavior problem or even if you are leaving town.  Stress and worry can make matters worse.  Think of that song, “Don’t worry, be happy!”.  It’s corny but it’s so true when it comes to our animals.

Annette: I never thought of it that way. I think that is very important to realize how stress and worry in and of itself can be a problem in the relationship with our animals… Is it true that our pets will over time reflect the same types of personality traits as their owners?

Karen Anderson: In some cases yes I think so.  Here is a good rule of thumb.  If you are happy, healthy, balanced and feeling good about yourself, your animals will too.  If you are sad, depressed, angry, unhealthy and feeling bad about yourself…your animals will too.  They are our barometers reflecting back what we put out into the world.

Annette: What is the best way for people to introduce a new animal into the home… especially if there are other pets already?

Karen Anderson: Go slowly.  Most introductions are done way too fast.  Animals are scent oriented and allowing them to smell each other before they actually see each other is the best way to start.  Kittens meeting other kittens or puppies meeting other puppies are usually the exception to this rule.  Remember animals think with animal minds.  Territory, space, food, water, toys, are all claimed by the resident animals.  I use baby gates to separate them too.  Let them smell first then let them see each other with a barrier up so no one can touch the other.  Try to think positive about how you would like them to respect each others space.  When the time is right, after observing their behavior, then they can have monitored ‘visits’.  Take your time and go slowly. The slower the better in most cases.

Annette: Really good to know! Do our animals stay connected to us after they pass on? What generally happens and how do they feel about us if we had to put them to sleep?

Karen Anderson: Absolutely yes our animals stay connected to us.  Even though their physical body may die their soul or energy lives on.  I call it transitioning because it really isn’t dying.  Some animals tell me they feel more alive now than when they were in their bodies.  As for their feelings of being euthanized, this is case by case.  But most of the time the animals are ready to leave their body especially if it is failing them.   They see death and dying as a natural stage in their journey and usually don’t make a big deal about it.  They usually only get upset when their human gets upset.  It does not change their love for us nor do they hold a grudge. Animals are quite forgiving even in the worst cases of abuse or neglect.  We have a lot to learn from them.

Annette: I had to put two of my dogs to sleep and am still traumatized by it. Your answer gave me some comfort. Can anyone develop the ability to communicate with animals?

Karen Anderson: I do believe we all have the ability to learn to to communicate with animals.  However I do believe that some people are just not open to the process so they would not have much success. But if you believe it can happen, are open to the process and love animals then it’s a snap.  Once you learn the steps it’s like any other new skill.  The more you practice the better you get.

Annette: Are you able to receive messages from wild animals and also smaller creatures such as fish or even insects?

Karen Anderson: All animals communicate with me through the same transmission of messages.  Wild animals are no exception.  I think of ‘Christian the lion’ and his love for his two humans.  Even years after returning Christian to the wild he still remembered them and showered them with affection.  All animals are capable of sending messages.  Fish and other aquatic creatures are very interesting to communicate with.  Understanding their world from their perspective has been so rewarding.  I generally don’t communicate with insects much but it is possible.  All living creatures have a soul and it’s the soul I connect with.

Annette: Please tell us a little bit about your book Hear All Creatures and what gave you the idea to write it?

Karen Anderson: My book is an inside look into the hearts and minds of the animals.  I share my first moments communicating with animals and how I learned to understand their messages.  Sometimes they will send me an image or picture of something and it’s up to me to figure it out.  I also included some of my favorite sessions with the animals.  Their incredible and sometimes heart wrenching messages still humble and amaze me. The idea to write a book came to me as I was touring the United States attending psychic fairs and expos. At each show I would speak before and audience and share some of my most recent sessions.  The audiences could not get enough of my stories and would beg for more.  Once I sat down to write it practically wrote itself.  The stories of the animals in the Afterlife seem to be the most popular.  So my next book will highlight some of my favorite sessions from the Other Side.

Annette: What was it like growing up being able to talk to animals and know what they thought and felt?

Karen Anderson: I thought everyone could understand the animals. It wasn’t until I was about 7 or 8 years old that my parents started to discourage me from ‘talking to the dog’. They didn’t quite know what to do with me and figured I had an overactive imagination.  Since I loved animals so much it was very easy to tap into their energy.  I think children are very open to these types of abilities as they don’t know they can’t.  I loved every minute of it and still remember some of the silly conversations I had with them.

Annette: Nice. Have you ever come across an evil animal? Do you believe in people or animals being evil?

Karen Anderson: I have met some very fearful and some extremely aggressive animals but not an evil one.  That is more for the humans in this world.  Animals will generally act out for some kind of instinctual purpose.  They live in the moment and are usually very happy as long as all their needs are met.  If an animal is fearful it is usually because it’s humans are living in the past and keep replaying past events in their minds.  Be in the moment with your animals. They are in a good home with lots of love, food, water and exercise.  Don’t live in the past.  It will help your animals move through their fears.

Annette: Thanks Karen for your very helpful insights.  I am eager to incorporate what I learned today in to our daily life with our ‘fur people’ 

Karen has teleclasses and CD’s to help you learn to communicate with animals.  Signed copies of her book are also available. Karen Anderson does private sessions by phone as well.  Find out more about Karen Anderson by visiting her website.
