Animals can be powerful healers, but what happened this morning was surprising, even to me.
I’ve been struggling with depression for a few weeks. I attributed this to the heavy metal detoxes my body has been experiencing as part of the Ascension process.
This morning, I was at a very serious low point. Starlight had slept all night on my bed. I could feel her doing her best to care for me, despite her own physical challenges.
I felt bad that she was feeling all my “stuff”. Animals who live with us are attuned to our emotional states. Asking them to stop taking care of us is like asking the sun not to shine.
I wanted to protect her, but I just couldn’t shake my feelings.
When I got up to make my morning tea, Starlight came downstairs immediately. We often have a morning cuddle and grooming sessions together. Melissa sometimes joins in, but didn’t this morning.
This morning, Starlight climbed right into my lap. After assisting her with her ongoing spring shed, she cuddled into my arms, purring and purring . . . and purring.
We sat there together for some time.

Starlight, 2025.
Very slowing, I started to feel my emotional energy shift. It felt like a heavy blanket of dense emotions lifting off me.
Because I run a vortex in the house all the time, I didn’t have to do anything special to clear the energy – it was sucked into the vortex where it would be transmuted into Divine Love and Light, and taken to another realm.
Starlight and I sat together this way until we both felt clear and relaxed.
ANIMAL COMMUNICATION TIP
Animal Communication takes place at many levels.
It’s not limited to one form, such as words.
It includes feelings, knowings, intuition, and more.
Take a moment, shift into a relaxed state,
and notice one of your own animals.
Is s/he communicating with you right now?







Hi: 2 of my cat family members just passed over; a couple of months apart. One (Grayson) was so unexpected and the other (Anna Mae) was somewhat expected since she was 20 yrs. old. I read some of the articles in this email and they were very helpful. The one article that mentioned how a cat may seem like she is ready to pass over and then sort of “woke up” and was lively and confused the owner. .. (Article: ..”.How this was a phase of disconnecting from physical to getting ready for the spiritual.”…. .) Well, that happened with me and Anna Mae. She had jumped on the bed and just laid there for a few minutes. I thought she was gone . She got up like nothing ever happened but was weak. Then the following day, a similar incident happened. So, I figured ….Ok this is” her time” so on the way to vets for euthanization. Got to vets and she was spunky and meowy. Took tests that resulted in being ok. I was so puzzled. Two weeks later, Anna Mae just laid in her bed too weak to move, meowed when I touched and talked to her . On the way again to the vets. This time, she just didn’t want to move , so Tired , so she was telling me she was now ready to pass over. So from this article, it helped me to now know that she was “disconnecting”. Regarding your cat family, I got so behind in your emails about them, I read all the articles about Starlight and Melissa so I am now updated. I’m very happy that Melissa (after her return) finally pulled through and is healthy now.
So glad I had time to read your email and some articles listed today. Thank you very much . I needed all this info.
Thank you for your comments, Sue. I’m sure the experiences you shared will help others with animals getting ready to leave. When we observe carefully and pay attention to the subtle messages they are sending us, it becomes easier to understand their individual processes.
Condolences for your losses/
Kind regards,
Nedda, Starlight, and Melissa
