“Believe something and the Universe is on its way to being changed. Because you've changed, by believing. Once you've changed, other things start to follow. Isn't that the way it works?” ― Diane Duane, So You Want to Be a Wizard
That's the kind of day it was ... and the Pelicans were there ... Zen in the water.
From 2014 ... a gem from one of our day trip excursions...
First glance, from a distance,
they looked
like buoys,
such a foreign and
unexpected sight.
Then one moved!
Pelicans!
Driving alongside the water Andy found a tree that cloaked us, we hoped. Taking pictures from the car didn't quite capture the details. I needed a closer angle and a place to idle.
I stepped out and stood among the tree branches and it worked for awhile. Then the seagulls ratted me out and the Pelicans shifted their energy from serene to alert.
Slowly, they took their leave, steady and deliberate, the gentle alteration of their course, downstream and effortlessly away.
I felt the one at the point position had sensed our presence and observed us with a wary eye. He knew I was there and he tolerated my non-threatening action but had given me as much time as he could.
Our time was up.
Mission accomplished, I retreated to the car.
Jack and Gracie had been quite patient.
We lingered a bit, watching a few moments
more as the big, beautiful birds
faded from sight.
Lots of winged activity at the dam,
including two more Pelicans.
Further down the road, we saw a Bald Eagle (huge) but he was too far for me to even think about getting a pic.
We have found a groove for our excursions at this point. We start out in the car with a specific direction in mind. Gracie and Jack are great travel dogs. The trip usually involves the plan of a hike or an extended walk somewhere.
Keeping the destination optional, we often find new views and trails we hadn't considered that are sometimes better than those we know.
The day unfolds, we enjoy our time and our company on the unexpected journey. Happening upon Pelicans soaking up the sun was a bonus.
Wikipedia - The Neosho Valley flooded over 45 times in the 30 years leading up to
1950 when Congress would authorized the project for what was to be
"Strawn Dam." Ironically, it was authorized and awaiting construction
during the Great Flood of 1951, which inundated downtown Burlington and Strawn where some locations had floodwater 30 feet (9.1 m) deep.
"I
could feel and sense that the snake intended no harm and I said that
part out loud. That did not mean it should be ignored. What I did not
say out loud is that I sensed the snake was being respectful and
anticipated a like-kind response." - Wendy's Rattlesnake Medicine Encounter in connection to the interview with Stanley Krippner on Native American Medicine Man Rolling Thunder
I wanted to share this experience because it is so typical of what happens when those in spirit essence want to engage with us. It happened in connection to my interview with Stanley Krippner on Rolling Thunder. It isn't the first time I have felt the presence of RT as there was an incident with the sound of rolling thunder on a clear day as I prepared for a previous interview with Dr. Krippner.
This encounter is, however, more substantial due to the greater complexity of the dynamic and the coinciding timing of social events kicking up activism and dissent.
On the afternoon of the day of our interview, Andy and I took the dogs to the park. We walked the trail and the creek. Prairie grass alongside the trail was about 5 feet tall and dotted with flowers and butterflies. We talked about how it might have been if you had to actually walk through the grass and the clothes and boots that would have been hot - but necessary - to avoid bugs and scratchy plants.
Midsummer temps were perfect at about 79 with low humidity. It was a gorgeous Midwest summer day and the dogs loved cooling off in the water.
On the return trip, walking back up the hill, we noticed the group in front of us had stopped. A Dad and his three young boys had dismounted their bicycles and were standing along the far right side of the trail.
Kansas Sunflower - in the land of Ahhs.
The man then yelled out a caution that we might want to go slow because a very large rattlesnake had just crossed their path. He asked if we could see it. We were still about 30 feet away. They were closer at about 10 feet and watching it leave the asphalt trial and go onto the side ditch.
And yes, we could see it. Wow! Big enough we could see the head and the tail, popping up through the trimmed grass.
I could feel and sense that the snake intended no harm and I said that part out loud. That did not mean it should be ignored. What I did not say out loud is that I sensed the snake was being respectful and anticipated a like-kind response.
Andy went ahead with Gracie to see what kind of rattlesnake it was. It had a large head and was at least 4 feet long. The color was vibrant because the skin had just been shed. He could tell by the markings it was a Timber Rattler. I have seen one rattlesnake in person when I was a teenager. Most likely it was a Prairie Rattlesnake. It was at the most, 6 or 8 inches in length. It did have rattles.
When the snake noticed Gracie (our medium-sized dog) had stopped, it deftly turned, arched its neck with the head held aloft and started to coil, rattles engaged for added emphasis. The snake felt threatened.
Andy and Gracie quickly resumed a deliberate and smooth pace past the snake with the Man with his two older boys close behind. The snake relaxed a bit. His head was still arched and I had eye contact. I was within about 20 feet at that point. He was beautiful and looked quite majestic, simply trying to assess the threat and maintain the upper hand in managing a defense. The man then called out to the youngest one to hurry, while at the same time the snake stiffened his neck to affirm the threat was passing. No rattle sound. Tail down.
Quiet in my arms now, I hauled (our small dog) Jack up from the trail the minute the presence of the snake had been announced. He caught me off guard because he unexpectedly threw a temper tantrum at the indignity of being unceremoniously dethroned (in his mind) in front of a crowd, inadvertently humiliated.
Not amused and no time to explain the situation, I held him firm and tight. He relented and calmed down. If he had pitched that diva fit in closer proximity and agitated the snake it could very easily have been misinterpreted and created a dangerous scenario. Not today.
As it was, airlifted Jack and I followed behind the small child, timidly moving forward with his bike, and kept watch on the snake, now also resuming travel to safely slither off into the undergrowth along the treeline.
Respect and awe won the day. He/She had appeared to be in robust health, stunning, with beautiful color and markings. An incredibly rare encounter in our hiking excursions.
---
Back at home, half an hour prior to the show. Gracie indicates I have a
visitor. She quietly sits in front of me and looks behind her then back at me, asking - "Do you see them?"
I felt the energy shift. I knew someone was present.
RT -- The connection is telepathic and direct. He told me a couple of times: "Do your homework!" - "Do your homework!"
I knew he meant I needed to again look at the book in preparation for my interview.
So I sat down and listened.
RT wanted the activism information addressed and the message of peaceful
dissent. He was pleased that I listened and he knew Stanley Krippner was ready to
address the topics.
After we left the station - a lime green balloon with a card attached
- walked itself across the crosswalk in front of us, just as if someone were right beside it.
Andy asked if I wanted the balloon to read the card. No. I got the message I knew it was RT. He said, "Thank you."
--- I believe in these things because I experience them. The Rattlesnake on
the trail - was a once in a lifetime encounter - for me. He was gorgeous
and big. The colors were bright because of the recently shed skin. And
he made eye contact. I was in awe. Then, when I made the connection later, I realized he had a purpose. The message was delivered in the most appropriate form.
I asked Stanley what Rolling Thunder might have had in mind in presenting the message of Rattlesnake Medicine at this time. He told me the symbolic meaning implied shedding of the skin that we can change and shed our old beliefs.
---
I do know about these symbolic representations having worked with Totems and Dreaming Animal Energies for years. However, not to the extent of anyone with the mastery level of Rolling Thunder.
For example, I am still receiving information from RT and the inspiration was that I could do my work to become an active Shaman. I replied that I am probably not suited to be in that category.
Then came the fun part. RT Question One: Can you sit still for 5 minutes? Yes, that I can do. RT Question Two: Can you sit still for 5 days? Okay, that's where my aptitude takes a detour.
As I said, I am probably not suited as I don't have the desire to push myself to that limit. However, I do know it can be done and, obviously, once one becomes adept at working in spirit from this level it is easier to interact and engage the elements accessed in the Shamanic Realm.
As his instruction implies, effort is required to produce results and those who apply themselves will improve their abilities on multiple planes of awareness.
Did he stop there? Actually, no. RT again. He said: "You will know when it is time to sit."
So I am learning a new step. Apparently, shedding skin is in my future_present_now.
As it stands, I am happy to make my connections, to share insight I might have and to encourage others to open their mind to experiences with those in non-corporeal form to express a greater awareness of living and being more than simply a bag of bones walking the path with no direction.
The underlying message in this case: Macro and Micro are reflecting a time now where all is undergoing transition and shift. The Mother is shedding her skin. Big changes are afoot. Tread lightly and watch for signs in all forms (and senses). Respect and honor all creatures.
We are not alone in this adventure and there are others in spirit eagerly working to assist if and when we are willing to apply ourselves to expand our awareness and admit we can use a helping hand.
Thank you, and Aho! We are one; in, with and - of - our Creation.3- given a telepathic reference of Triune. I thought I was done there but now I am curious ...
...And down the rabbit hole I go.
---
I have to look this word Triune up - because there is a reason the word Trinity was not used. Something is important about that word. Feeling my way now, google in progress.
The feeling syncs. In this instance, the meaning is: Incomprehensible but Knowable (fortunately, this is a book that helps with context) and refers to a Catholic Saint (What?).
By now I think I have gone off the rails. However, I discover an interesting tidbit that clarifies the reference. Saint Gregory Palamas. Correlation?
--- [Gregory went to live at the Megiste Lavra, but very soon moved to the
Skete of Glossia for greater tranquillity. The Turkish raids of 1325
forced him together with others to leave the Holy Mountain for
Thessaloniki, where he was ordained priest. In the following year
(1326), together with ten fellow-ascetics, he moved to the Skete of
Beroea, where he remained, living a life of great strictness, for five
years. Five days of the week he spent in complete isolation, devoted to
uninterrupted mental prayer, while on Saturdays and Sundays he emerged
to partake of the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.] Pemptousia ---
And why would one do this routine? To see the un-created light of God.The Hesychast System(Greek hesychos, quiet)
--- [By contemplating the uncreated light one became united with God so intimately that one became absorbed in Him.] NewAdvent.org
[There seems also to have been a strong element of the pantheism that so often accompanies mysticism in the fully developed Hesychast system.] NewAdvent.org ---
How the heck did RT get me from point A to5 days a week in silent prayer? RT: Chuckling hard now - "...a wing and a prayer." He shows me an image - threading a needle (me), playing with strings, I am sewing the fabric.
Abstract thinking comes in handy. I am done for now. What a wonder-filled lark. It's been like this since 1997. This is why I talk to nightlights. ;)
"It's
a mistake to think of any group or person as an opponent, because when
you do, that's what the group or person will become to you. It's more
useful to think of every other person as another YOU - to think of every
individual as a representative of the universe" - Rolling Thunder, Doug Boyd
After my interview with Tamar I invited her to share the story of how she reconnected with her ability to talk with animals. She has provided a picture of the dog who reminded her of all that she had temporarily forgotten to remember. We are experiencing a wonderful time of remembering. I hope you enjoy the story. - Wendy, Talking to Nightlights
My Journey into White
Lion Consciousness and answering the call of King of Kings
by Tamar Peters,Founder and CEO of Top Speaker Events & My Avatar Adventures
When I started talking about this concept of building a
bridge and reconnecting with nature and animals as a solution to many
challenges we face in today’s world, there were many raised eyebrows. I was not
surprised as in many ways I would have done the same a few years ago if someone
had mentioned we could learn wisdom from animals and reconnecting with nature.
So I am going to start from the beginning of my awareness of
this “world” of animal communication, conscious business and how I came create
these unique immersive adventures.
I wanted to share my personal experience
relating to my work, my spiritual path and my relationship with animals to set
the scene for the foundation of my personal journey into White Lion
Consciousness.
Nearly 4 years ago now I was at a crossroads in my life and
knew that everything had to change as I wasn’t happy with my life as it seemed
to lack meaning and purpose. I decided it was time to completely “unplug”
letting everything I owned go and simplifying my life. What kept my head above
water while my life fell apart was my reconnection with nature.
I sold all my material goods, the house, the car, the
furniture, most of my clothes and personal items, just everything I didn’t need
any more and move to Spain to a quieter more connected environment with more
sunshine and peace and quiet. Work wise I realized that I didn’t want to work
in the same way and so now my life if dedicated to reconnecting humans to
nature through interspecies communication and what we can learn from nature.
A recent experience with a beautiful golden retriever called
Max was the start of this recent journey into to the world of interspecies
communication, animal wisdom and the protection of endangered wild life species
as part of the re-education of leaders by reconnecting them to plight and
importance of natural birth right of all animal species.
Then
something strange happened…we started a conversation! Yes, a conversation as if
someone was speaking with me.
Not in words and I didn’t hear anything but more of a
knowing. Bear with me on this as it will make sense as I go. What I “knew” was
he had run away from home because he was bored and no one seemed interested in
paying him any attention. His owners had gone away and the people at the place he
was being kept were too busy with other people. He had traveled for about half
a day along the beach and had come far. He was now hungry and ready to go home.
So now I am sitting thinking how odd that I just had this
whole story inside
Max - Image credit: Tamar Peters
my mind out of the blue. It was like someone was telling me
the story but there was no voice, sound but rather just a knowing and energy
around it that made me think twice.
I initially thought what a great
imagination I have! I looked at his tag on his collar and saw his name was Max.
There was a phone number on the tag too. I asked one of the waiters (who spoke
some English) if he could call the number and let them know we had their dog
Max.
As it transpires, Max was being looked after by hotel staff as the owners
of the hotel had gone away for a week’s holiday. The owners were Max’s keepers.
Max had been missing for a couple of days and came from the next town along
from where I was.
The information I was given matched what I had “known” about
him and that is when I thought something else was definitely happening! I then
started to talk to Max, as I used to when I was young to other animals.
Not
speaking but thinking and creating pictures in my head. He turned to me and we
connected in such a powerful way, it was very difficult to explain. I knew then
that we had communicated.
He reassured me it was true and that everything was okay. He
was grateful for my help and a little worried as he knew he was in trouble. My
heart was so full of love and the beautiful energy I was receiving from him was
so powerful I just sat there stunned. A few minutes later a lady in a car arrived
and as Max left he turned to me and said – ‘I am ok and thank you’. And with
his tail between his legs he walked slowly towards the car and jumped in.
Well as you can well imagine I was stunned! Then suddenly a
rush of emotions followed and I burst into tears and laughed hysterically. I
had never felt such incredible undeniable love in all my life. I couldn’t get
my head around what had happened.
My logic was just denying any concept that
this just happened. I sat there for a while, to gather myself but the journey
home was a complete blur as my whole body, mind and emotions were totally
overwhelmed. I sat in my mediation chair in tears asking for some guidance and
explanation as thought I had completely lost it mentally.
I had such a powerful meditation and was told that this was
very important and more was to come. As I write this my eyes well up with tears
of recognition and emotion of something profound having shifted in my
consciousness. That moment still fills me with such profound love and there are
no words in our language that fully express the emotion of that kind of love.
It was then I knew something had changed in me. I demanded answers from my guides
as couldn’t understand what it all meant.
Over the coming months through my meditations, dreams and
“aha” moments, my path became very clear and a sense of “being on purpose” soon
took over my daily activities. I was so hungry for knowledge, information and
understanding that I spent 3 months solidly researching all I could about
animal communication, telepathy and anything to do with nature and animals and
our innate natural connection to them at a much deeper and meaningful level.
Over the months the whole idea, concept and meaning have
revealed itself and each time it’s been refined, more specific and certain. I
was encouraged by all the connections I had received to put a proposal together
for an organisation that had been brought into my awareness, the Global WhiteLion Protection Trust, to launch this new concept of interspecies
communication, animal wisdom and personal and professional leadership
transformation.
Linda Tucker - CBS Interview
The exact alignment and same core values of what I was being
divinely driven to do and what Linda Tucker, the Founder and CEO of the GWLPT,
had already been doing for years, was a definite sign I was moving in the right
direction.
I needed to focus on not just
any animals but wild life and not just any wild life, but endangered species. It
wasn’t just communicating with animals, which I have relearned to do, as it is
innate in all of us when we are born, but more for us to commune with them,
connecting heart to hear and listening to their wisdom as they have so much to
share that can help us.
Why you ask…..well they have a direct uninhibited connection
to source, they are as pure of heart as you can find in our world and their
knowledge, understanding and relationship with all that surrounds them, is so
powerful that it is why no matter how the environment changes around them, they
adapt really well.
The formula of teaching animal wisdom through leadership,
communication, relationships, sustainability or any other skill we need
assistance within ourselves and our professional lives, is key to building the
bridge and reconnecting us human animals with what is so natural in nature!
The concept of Journey into White Lion Leadership was born.
I was still asking why me, why had this come to me instead of those already
linked so much closer to nature, wild life, preservation of endangered species.
The answer I received was that because of my skills and passion for what I was
doing, I had what was needed to help birth it into the main stream.
My years of
business and event experience would be able to design educational platforms for
teaching of these concepts, my passion for animals and travel would help to
identify which ones we needed to focus on and create experiences that would
totally engage people’s imaginations.
And then finally my desire to make a difference in the world
would drive the tremendous impact this would have in a far reaching and
powerful manner. Therefore, it truly is my HONOUR to share this with the world
so that you too may be moved, as I am, to truly be part of the change we want
to see in the world.
My Avatar Adventures the business I created around this
event, is the start of this amazing journey not just for me but for all those who
answer the call of the White Lions.

*Update - ABC Cancelled the show - as the accolades of TV top 10 poured in ... DD was a darling. Indiewire. Budget issues cited.
#SaveDD is the cry. “ABC was interested in putting another season together but it more came
down to the financial,” Mr. Killen said. “We’re talking to anybody and
everybody but I still personally would love to see it land back on ABC." Rob Owen/Post-Gazzette
So maybe it's really more about how a human might cope with the confined space of animal being but - it works. And it's entertaining. Downward Dog, the series is coming up on ABC. Here's hoping it will be just as endearing.

My warmest coat. I have the longer version. (Duffle.)
When it's cold, the dogs just look at me like, "Really? You AREN'T taking us for a walk? Hater."
Exactly. So, I put on the coat, gloves, headband, boots, leggings, 'guide pro' pants, scarf, hat, heated hand warmers and head to the park. LOL.
The fish and the turtle and the cat guard the house. Dogs don't know BAD weather, it's just outside and that's where they rule the world.
Cold where you are? Don't shiver. Been there. Eddie Bauer.

I really enjoy connecting with Madeleine. We've talked before. A grand adventure she is living in her travels and explorations of world cultures and our interconnected animal relations.
Ranging from exploring past and present life connections of people and their companion animals, in an An Exchange of Love, to sharing the beautiful gift of deeper inspiration in The Whale Whisperer, her insight and message continues to evolve and resonate.
We are one with all that is. And if we so choose to open our hearts and grow our awareness we can hear the wisdom of the co-creators on our planet and benefit in awakening to a higher knowing.
Unity: The Power of the Animal Kingdom to Guide You Home, her newest book is designed to help engage that higher knowing and offers unique methods for self-healing and shifting realities to manifest loving re-connection to upgrade our knowing and engage higher consciousness in our daily interactions with our fellow Earth residents.
To that effect, she includes Elementals and others from the Non-Corporeal world who share with us a common chord of seeking healing for our wounded creation.
I asked Madeleine to share with me her intention in creating these special cards.
Her reply: "The precious energy blessings and frequencies of these cards, offer an opportunity for humankind to realign and to connect with the guardians to help heal our beloved Mother Earth and ourselves, so we can all be Earthkeepers!"
As you use and incorporate the cards into an ongoing practice, you can affect change for yourself and the planet. We talked about the many connections she has made through the course of her travels, the urgency of the messages, the sincerity in the engagement from the animals and the challenging process in getting this newest book to the shelf.
Madeleine gave a few relevant oracle messages as we spoke. I was delighted to hear the connection with Dragon. I also told her about my own extraordinary (non-ordinary) experiences. We have more in common than we realize and in every meeting more dots connect.

Wendy's Coffeehouse on Talk Radio KCMO has changed times and dates for 2017. And that has taken a bit more effort to re-launch (blog) and redirect my content but I've got it running now and intend to check back in here too when I have updated topics and guests.
Jack/Wendy in the cove. He wears a life vest
and leash on our lake tours.
Saved him more than once from
a whole body dunking.
He likes to chase bubbles from the waves.
While my Talk Radio focus always highlights a broad range of beyond-mainstream-metaphysical, PSI
and consciousness topics,
I also continue to keep an eye open
for fresh content related to animal issues,
sites and links that help publicize
and increase awareness about animal consciousness and
Animal Communicators.
I recently revisited a site with active and current links available in association with Fate Magazine.
My Grandmother got me hooked on Fate when I was about 9 years old. Sick days were spent holed up in the make-shift attic bedroom at Gramma's with a stack of mags.
The body might have needed a rest but the mind was on fire, out exploring other worlds and dimensions. "What if?" and "Do you believe?" Those questions were the catnip for great imagining.
I am re-posting contacts for a few Animal Communicators I have interviewed here:
While you can get information without having an up close and personal session, it's nice to know about those who are in your area too. The list is a start. If you can recommend or have positive feedback to offer on any of those listed, I will add it and expand the post.
Animals are tremendous teachers. Any effort one can make to expand awareness and engagement with them, their unique consciousness and their qualities of navigating this incredible reality is in our favor.
Email me with your comments and or suggestions of those to include on a list and I can add it on a future post(s). -- lite 4 one @ aol.com
Suggest: Name, contact, website, testimonial and or reference. Book, if available.
Coming up in a month or two, still confirming the best date, I will be interviewing my Fate Magazine contact who can help me to update and expand this content (permissions, etc).
