Sara from Efrat, Israel, asked:
Hi Julie,
I listened to your fascinating interview with Alex Ferrari.
One of the things I’ve been wondering about is animal spirits.
I’ve heard from various mediums I’ve listened to about our pets that transcend to the other side.
What about all the poor slaughtered animals for the food and fur industries? Do they transcend to an afterlife?
Thank you. You are doing wonderful work!
Sara
Hi Sara,
What a great question, one I hadn’t ever thought of.
It has been my experience that all animals (and people for that matter), go to what some call Heaven, regardless of how they transition.
In researching this topic for you, I consulted my spirit guides who said all spirits, whether they be a one-celled amoeba, animal, or anthropoid, transition from their form in our reality, back to pure energy, what I call spirit.
That’s why our deceased pets’ spirits are present when we’re transitioning, (see my Twelve Phases of Transition®), and show themselves to me when they’re in Heaven with their human loved ones.
Furthermore, my guides have often told me all spirits choose what they want to experience in each lifetime and expand with each incarnation. This applies to animals too.
It’s like how we really don’t grasp something until we experience it. Think of when you were learning to drive a car. You could read something instructional or watch a how-to-drive movie, and you could even watch someone else drive, but you didn’t really “get” it until you were actually doing the driving yourself.
Lastly, although it’s unfathomable for us to understand why any animal would want to be slaughtered, it’s feasible that an animal’s mission in a lifetime may be to solely provide food and warmth to others.
Hope that clarifies things for you.
