That's interesting, ... I don't believe I have met a psychic yet who does not think info is contained in the aura. Note tho, I am talking about psychic ability, ..not linking to spirit which is mediumship.

I can only comment as applicable to people on this part, ...but checking if someone is here or in spirit, is something that was pushed a lot on my own training. (Not good obviously to have an enquiry about a person and your talking about them like they are dead when they are not - might worry people.) What I found tho was that yes, you could sense if someone was in spirit or not, ... either way you could pick up and give information about them psychically, .... but only sometimes would a person in spirit you were giving info about actually take advantage of the situation and actually link in to you whilst you were doing it.

For me, if this happens, the shift from psychic to spirit is unmistakable, ... the energy is different in an instant, and quite the opposite to what you have found - for me the way the info starts to come/is delivered, is different when it is coming from spirit than when being sensed psychically.

I am wondering now tho, are there any reports anywhere of any animal speaking at a physical seance? Anyone?

You folks have illustrated why I am a practicing Ba Gua Taoist. All of creation (and uncreation, not-creation, never-bothered-to-think-about-being-created, etc) is one. For lack of a better name, I call this seamlessly unified field the Tao.

We are all vibrations within this field. If one can trace the energy in them back to the source OR project their consiousness outwards to accept all, they can link into the Tao.

Talking to animals? Why of course They are part of the Tao as well !! So is the rock, the fire plug, the mailbox, etc, etc. That is why some psychics and/or mediums can read objects as well as living auras. Everything has an aura :P

All I can add is my own experience really? I have practised 'healing' om animals, with some success (a far better test of ability than humans, where the mind comes into it, and 'belief' or placebo effects). Also no complaints, and no risk of legal suits etc... ahem!
The thing about 'psychic ability' is that it is hard to control, and can be confusing, with a jumbled mass of images/messages/feelings and so-on coming in from the surroundings - which can include living and dead people, animals, and even objects and places... never mind other things so far undefined. It's like a radio with no tuning control at times, and the communication involved is a 'meeting of minds', not an exchange of words. As I have to use written words to describe this, I am therefore hampered considerably, but I'll try.

I suspect you are right about the 'new clutch' idea coming from the owner rather than the dog, but the actual 'idea' of such an impending malfunction could possibly come from the animal in this way - 'a ghastly, grinding shriek (inaudible to mere humans, the thrust bearing about to pack up) comes from the metal box that makes me feel sick whenever my master presses that smelly rubbery thing with his/her boot, and it's going to make him/her very cross and upset soon...'
So the dog might express it in writing, were it possible, bur the actual 'idea' as an image is somehow transferable, and even understandable - just a guess?

Communicating with animals by telepathy is very difficult and demanding, I'm too impatient and lazy to have ever tried to do it reliably or very usefully. Dogs are the easiest I find, their minds and aspirations are similar to ours, but 'transmitting' ideas to them has to be done by pictorial vizualization, from their point of view. In other words, you have to 'see through their eyes', which are almost always a lot closer to the floor. I did this in a most unsporting and unkind (some might say) fashion with my dear old (sadly deceased) dog, who was very clever and 'in tune', as a test. While she was half dozing, looking away from me - no eye contact - I concentrated hard on her head, and imagined (from her POV) myself leaping up and delivering a mighty clip round the ear to her - without of course rising from my chair. The result was definite and dramatic, whipped tound with those big eyes, and an accusing, hurt, 'why me?' look. It works...

The other way round, i.e. 'receiving' is more difficult, and as hard as getting in touch with spirit - the techniques are the same however (if there are any?). You have to 'relax into their psyche' if that make any sense... and beware, what you pick up is not always pleasant or comforting. Dogs are not very far removed from wolves, even quiet old hearthrug dogs, and their world largely revolves around fear, greed and jealousy - the image you fondly like to think they have of you, is nothing like the real thing, you have been warned. Love to them - and they do love, powerfully - is not the idealistic, unselfish, loyal love they show to us, it is based on different principled which are hard to describe, but revolve around almost worshipful subservience and selfishness. We unwittingly keep them in perpetual puppyhood, stroking is to them a tongue lick... being a dog-whisperer is a strange thing indeed.

If dogs are 'little Nazis', cats are quite unspeakable creatures, violent, cruel and fickle, without even the saving grace of SS-like 'loyalty'. I avoid them...

Horses I don't know. I have tried this sort of communication on many animals, and can 'charm' most of them to an extent. Unfortunately, it is very disappointing when it happens usually, especially with birds, who are almost entirely 'instinctive', and (I have to say) incredibly thick - 'bird brained' through and through. In fact, I rarely bother trying to 'communicate' with other species nowadays, as the results are at best depressing, and at worst, sickening. Many humans are bad enough...

Healing them is another matter though, and whether right or wrong, I prefer to 'humanise' animals - even bees. Nature is too red in tooth and claw for my liking.

[BloodyAngel]

You cant hear a horses thoughts, they have a diffrent language.

[filemaster]

believe it or not their were 5 angels who create the spirit world.....

[Warwick]

That could well be true... any idea why there were five, why they made it, and what they are up to nowadays?

I am intrigued by the 'history' of the spirit world, as well as the nature and structure of it. As 'time' seems to work in a different fashion there (neither 'passing', nor static, nor even noticed), perhaps 'history' isn't the right word? Stuck as I am in this 'one second per second' rate of advancing into the future, it is hard to comprehend... yet I assume there are 'developments' there as there are here on earth, as the place is affected by cavemen, then the devoutly religious, and most recently, the bewildered 'scientific'? This genuinely fascinates me, since there is not only a connection but interacrion between the realms.

[deserticon]

Well, thankfully, angels don't mind if you don't believe. You could not believe I exist, and it wouldn't matter either. I still exist.

[Warwick]

Ah well Deserticon, I have recently seen angels, and now know they exist! Your words on this screen are enough to convince me that you also exist too...

This raises an intriguing issue actually. I am quite skeptical by nature, unwilling to believe in anything I haven't seen, experienced or witnessed myself - though there are some things this doesn't apply to, such as (low voltage!) electricity, translations of ancient documents, or distant galaxies... for which I have to rely on the word (and work) of others, who are better equipped than I am.

That does not apply to religious beliefs, as expostulated by those who claim 'to know' - and demand to be accepted as right and righteous, without a shred of evidence to support their claims. I would have been damned and burned as a heretic and blasphemer not all that long ago, and would no doubt have died painfully for my 'un-beliefs', as it were.

Fortunately for sabre-toothed liberals like me, times have changed, and freedom of speech (within reason) is generally allowed in forums such as this - potentially available to anyone in this world to read (and probably worlds unseen too?). Already I take it for granted, as I feel such freedom should always have been 'right' and a good thing for us all.

What I'm saying here is that we should be thankful for this opportunity to discuss such weird and divergent things, which would once have seen most of us burned at the stake, hung or consigned to the loony bin... and must never allow this godsend to be revoked, controlled, censored or tampered with - as governments worldwide are eager to do!

Not really much to do with angels, sorry, though angels are messengers by tradition.... ahem!

[basedrumer]

dont believe in angles and gaurdian angles no.if some gets kidnaped and who knows what or some gets pushed of a bridge then were are the angles.theres to much useless death everday to be stoped but it happens..........

[AMP]

Angels or spirit guardians are not there to stop us experiencing life - and that means also death! We have much to experience whilst we are here so that our soul can grow. If we were stopped from these experiences then what would be the point of coming into the physical world?
