What will you ask Spirit?

Please Help Me Strengthen My Connection To Spirit

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Al.

Al: I just stumbled across your site today and I was wondering if The Council had any advice for me currently that could assist me on my journey, or anything to strengthen my connection with my guides and spirit?

Council: Meditate, meditate, meditate. It is so important at this time to get into that state of meditation and calmness so that your vibration expands, and you will become more aware, and have clarity for what’s going on around you.

And so at this point the meditation will also let you become aware of the guides that are here, that are willing to work with you to bring you forward on the path.

And so we would say at least a half an hour every day would help you strengthen that connection.

Bob: Any particular meditation for Al?

Council: Any meditation where you’d concentrate on beauty. What does beauty look like? What does it feel like? And be grateful for all the beauty around, on the planet, what you see in your environment, and that will help push you into a vibration of being more connected to spirit.

Lovely question. And we send everyone loving energy, and support from the spirit world to love yourself, to learn how to walk down that path. and be kind to each other.

How Can I Stop My Adopted Cat’s Itchiness?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Kristine.

Kristine: I adopted a beautiful cat last year and she’s been itching on the sides of her head and behind her ears and neck the whole time I’ve had her, which would have started prior to the adoption. The vet thought she had a food allergy and put her on a hypoallergenic diet.

Council: It’s a sound vibration. The cat is feeling a tingle or a vibration from a sound. Apparently, we see this cat, as a kitten, fell and there was some movement. We would put this as easily as possible for you to understand. There was some movement in the ears, so this cat is sensitive to sound and hears and feels some sounds.

This cat needs a lot of loving care and a lot of attention. It should always have a quiet atmosphere. You can do some healing on this cat. You don’t have to know anything special. You can just put your hands on the cat and send love from your heart We see, in time, if you keep doing this, the sound will become less and less, and there’s a possibility of it fading.

There’s no medicine that’s needed. Massage is needed for the cat’s neck, under the ears, and around the body to make it feel comfortable. That’s what we see and what we recommend for this wonderful kitty.

Bob: If a human was having this problem might you recommend craniosacral therapy?

Council: That’s also wonderful if you can find a craniosacral therapist that works on animals, and they are out there. But no loud music, no loud noise, and no yelling. This cat must be in a calm atmosphere.

And of course, the spirit of the cat, just like a human, has choices. When it begins to feel safe and it no longer wants to hear this noise, when it’s used to being in the quiet, it will choose not to hear this noise anymore.

Kristine: The vet thought she had a food allergy and put her on a hypoallergenic diet, which she was on for at least five months, and she continued to itch and bleed.

Council: We don’t see that’s the problem.

Kristine: Friends suggested the cat might have fleas, but the treatment for fleas didn’t work. I kept her inside and stopped using any fragrances and perfumes and that hasn’t worked.

Council: The cat is feeling the vibration of this sound in her head.

Kristine: I’ve taken her to the vet four times and they want her on medication for the rest of her life, even though they have no idea what the cause is, and I won’t do that to her. I’m so horribly stressed and feel awful for her, but I don’t know what else to do.

Council: It’s important for you to meditate and not add to the cat’s stress. The cat will feel your vibration. And so, you have to come with love to this cat, with confidence, with the feeling that the cat is well, and telling the cat it’s well. And that all your love, together with the cat, will help it feel better. Come from your heart. Put your hands on the cat, and send love daily, at least for 10 minutes.

Kristine: Council, please, what can you see? Why is she itching all the time? I want her to have the best life with me. I adore her and I just want her to be happy. She’s all I have.

Besides the scratching, is she happy I adopted her?

Council: Oh yes. There’s great happiness there, so bond closely and just tell her that together you’ll help her feel better.

Kristine: Is there anything else I can do to make her feel loved and happy?

Council: It’s the massage every day. It’s the quietness. No loud surroundings and no tension. The tension also adds to the vibration she hears and feels. Calmness, which will help both of you, we see you both need it. So you’ve come together to both learn to be calm.

Bob: And as far as the hypoallergenic food is concerned, she can feed the cat whatever she wants?

Council: Exactly. If the cat likes the hypoallergenic food, then, yes, continue it.

Kristine: Your love and guidance is beyond appreciated. Love and appreciation, Kristine.

Council: Love to you and your cat on your journey.

The Difference Between Worry and Guidance

This post is inspired by a question from Ali, who asks the difference between intuition and worry. When she feels the loving source of well-being, she knows everything is okay spiritually, but she still worries about physical events, mainly with her child. She wants to know how to tell when to accept these feelings as guidance and when to ignore them as worries.

The Council says guidance always comes with a calmness while worry comes from fear. You may feel a tightening or nervousness with fear, but with guidance and intuition you generally experience how to move through a difficult situation. They give an example of feeling intuition about a car accident, but you feel calm about it and take extra care while driving to prevent the accident.

Ali asks if her chronic worrying affects her point of attraction even if she doesn’t express it out loud. Ali has a lot of fear about vaccines and waited until recently to have her daughter vaccinated. The Council says Ali’s fear created the difficulty using her leg that her daughter temporarily experienced as a result of the vaccination.

When I asked if the situation is okay now The Council answered that it depends on how Ali focuses her attention. They remind us we create future experiences with our thoughts and if Ali continues to worry, she’ll create situations that keep her worrying. They recommend she acknowledge her worries, try to look at the situation differently, and ask herself how she can turn this worry around.

The Council says if you change the way you think about something, when it’s time to experience what you’ve been thinking about you can have a better reality than if you stayed thinking more negatively. Have a listen to the 6-minute part of the session with The Council to hear their guidance.
