Hello and welcome to February’s edition of Furry Words! I hope the new year is treating you well and that you have enough layers for you and your pups to stay warm. We’ve had so many frigid windy days, but it does make us appreciate the beautiful hot summer days, right? This month I want to share a super fascinating reading I did about a woman’s dog named Lola. She reached out because lately the dog didn’t seem to want to hang out with her best dog friend and she was wondering what had happened.
First of all, it was a phone session, and she assumed we’d just be discussing the dog. Much like other calls I do, it ended up being about her and her fiancé more than the dog's behavior. I believe the animals come along to help us on our journey, and they can teach us powerful lessons we may otherwise shy away from. Lola’s short answer was the humans that had her bestie were going through some stuff, and they weren’t being the kindest to each other and the energy around them was a bit chaotic and grumpy. If you think of Pigpen in Peanuts, he always has the gray clutter around him. This energy looks and feels the same, and Lola was not enjoying being around it.
The second thing that came up was that Lola was very much connected to her maternal great, great grandmother, who was enjoying watching her descendant absolutely winning at life. The grandmother had been a successful businesswoman, but that was difficult to balance while doing what was expected of women “back in the day.” She would rather have simply been on her own, working, and not trying to find time to be a mom, so her dynamic with her daughter was strained. My client’s dynamic with her mom was much better but still had some challenges. The grandmother came back through the dog and around the dog because all the hard work that the women did in each successive generation had paid off, and her peace and success of Lola’s owners was proof of that.
When the great, great granddaughter did her own healing work, it also transferred back up to all of the women who came before. I have a podcast on this titled Healing Generational Trauma that can explain this even further. The part I really loved about the call was when she said that her dog seemed smitten with her fiancé, and she wondered what the connection between them was. The husband was the great, great grandmother’s true love reincarnated. She was never given the chance to be with him, and I believe he passed in either a tragic car accident or in a war zone. The granddaughter is living in a time where she can be a mom if she wants, she can have a career if she wants, and she knows how she wants to be loved and has found a man who reciprocates it beautifully. She has what her elder wanted for herself, and in this lifetime her soul is being healed through the love they have for each other.
Absolutely fascinating, isn’t it?! Thank you for listening to Lola’s story and if you’d like to set up a reading, go to www.enlightenedhorizons.com.
