For those who are new to Energy Healing and the benefits to physical and emotional health, relationships, career/soul’s purpose and other life areas like abundance and breaking free of old patterning, this article from MysticMag, an online metaphysical magazine, might offer some insights! My contribution to the article is the 3rd entry down from the top.
As I’ve reflected on my recent adventures with the cows on my travels and in other places I’ve lived since my last blog post, I’ve also been thinking about some magical experiences I’ve had with chickens as well. Like cows, chickens and other farm animals are often overlooked, mistreated or undervalued in our society.
I remember a day I was dog sitting for someone in Carmel Valley, CA when I lived in the Monterey area. As well as taking care of the dog, I was also to feed the chickens on the property and harvest some eggs from the coup each day.
One day, after I replenished their feeders and waters, one of the hens got out of the coup. I was instructed to make sure they were all safe inside, since the ranch owner wouldn’t be home until after dark that day. So I went out after the chicken to retrieve her. She got a little scared as I scooped her up and as she twisted around in my arms, I thought I might have hurt one of her wings.
When I got her back to the coup, she seemed to act and move normally. But I wanted to make sure her wing was okay, so I decided to do some energy healing for her to provide comfort and any healing if needed.
While I did the energy healing, I got a deeper sense that she was fine and didn’t have an injury. I also felt such a love and appreciation for her and all the chickens. Not just these chickens, but all the chickens on our planet.
There are those who live on private properties, providing eggs for their human owners. There are also those who live their lives on other kinds of farms and factories, where they are raised for meat. And then there are some chickens who are lucky to live with humans who love them and consider them family.
These particular humans want their chickens to live their lives out peacefully and naturally while free ranging and enjoying the connection with their human caretakers. I would imagine that these chickens are so happy to be loved, cared for and treated with kindness and equality.
I was reflecting on all of this when I decided to do a blessing for this hen and her sisters, thanking them for their energy and all they provide. As I completed the blessing for the chickens, I asked them if there was any way they could make it easier for me to harvest the eggs in the morning for their human.
The last couple mornings, each time I went in to feed and get the eggs, some of the hens were brooding. And since I did not want to move the chickens or try to pluck the eggs out from under them, I waited until later when they were not near the eggs.
It was just a simple question and I did not expect an answer in reply. Afterall, it is their biological instinct to sit on those eggs allowing them to transform into potential offspring.
After taking a short break and then going back to the coup to harvest the eggs that day, I was greeted with a surprise. When I moved to the back of the coup where two or three of the hens usually sat on their eggs, I noticed that they were still sitting there and looking straight at me. As I approached them and asked if I could collect the eggs, one by one, they each stood up and allowed me to reach under them for the eggs.
I considered this a testament to the power of connecting and communicating with them. I also felt a gratefulness coming from the chickens in response to doing the energy healing and taking the time to care for and consider them.
With chickens being a common animal on many home properties, farms and ranches, we can all benefit from feeling gratitude for them and giving back to them in some way. In addition, all of us can practice the art of animal communication through our intent.
For those who understand telepathy, that is the easiest way to communicate. But we can also talk to any animal out loud, as we would another human. Through my work with animals over the years, I have found that they often understand our words and/or the energy behind them.
So I encourage you to enjoy some magical connections with chickens! Not only will you be able to help them more, but you’ll also make it easier for yourself in the process. And best of all, you’ll find you have peaceful, joyful and healthier chickens.
With love & Blessings! 🙂 Heather
For those interested in learning more about how to help the animal & nature kingdoms while participating in a group experience, I am offering an earth healing class this coming Saturday, the 29th at 10 am Pacific time on Zoom. For details and sign up, you can go to my event page by clicking here.
Many of you who follow me on Facebook may have read my recent post about my trip to New Mexico and Texas in May. I wrote about my intention to communicate with and offer energy healing to the cows in those areas.
I shared that the cow energy represented the divine mother and how they are helping to anchor in more of this mother/feminine energy into our planet and collective consciousness at this time. The cows had been calling me for awhile now…since the fall of 2023. I knew they wanted my assistance, I just wasn’t exactly sure what for.
In order to understand it fully, I’ll have to take you back to several years ago when I lived on the border of Arizona and Utah. Back then, I was called to live there in order to be more in service to the earth. As well as assisting clients by offering intuitive guidance and energy healing by phone and online as I do now, I was also helping to restore areas of the earth that needed healing.
This type of work is also known as gridwork. It’s a practice of supporting the earth and her grids which can include working with specific ley lines, vortexes, portals, pyramids and the crystalline and diamond light matrix in many different areas of nature through energetic practices, healing modalities or sacred ceremony.
At that time, I lived in a very remote area. I had to drive a few miles down a dirt road to get to the camper where I lived. One day while driving home, I saw several cows near the side of the road. I usually saw them most days, but this time they were closer to the road than ever before.
On this particular day I was drawn to stop and interact with them. It was a narrow dirt road and most of the time no one else was driving down it, so I just stopped right there in the road. It was a hot summer day and I had the windows rolled up and the air conditioning on. As I noticed them look over to me, I was called to sing to them.
So right then, I began singing in the car. I knew they couldn’t hear me, I just hoped they would feel the energy behind my words because it was a song about love. In addition to this, I also sent them some supportive energy for healing and empowerment. I sent it at the higher self level like I often did when working with animals.
What happened next took me by complete surprise. Within just a minute or two of singing and sending this healing energy to them, they turned on their heels and swiftly approached my car. Astonished by their quick movements, I stopped singing. My jaw dropped while I watched as they completely surrounded my car.
Two of the cows stood at each side window of the car. A few others stood around the car at other angles. The one who was standing next to the driver’s window where I sat, was making licking and chewing mouth movements. He stretched his neck forward and chewed on the car’s driver side mirror. Then he bent his head down and looked at me closely through the driver’s side window. I still remember the way he tilted his head as his big brown eyes pierced mine.
All the cows seemed very curious and drawn to the energy I was sending them. I wasn’t sure what to do next and I definitely didn’t want to startle them by trying to move the car or get out. So there I sat. We continued looking at each other and sharing in the love. I stayed there for awhile longer connecting with them and when they moved a bit off the road, I decided to drive on home. But I knew there would be more interactions to come!
Fast forward two and a half to three years later to the end of 2023…That’s when I started hearing and feeling that familiar energy again. I had a dream about cows living in a barn next to my home, who seemed comforted by my presence. I saw visions of cows in my daytime meditations and I knew they were trying to connect with me.
After moving to my new home in Sedona in early 2024 and getting clear about this travel destination to be in service to the cows, I set out to visit them in May. It was so much more than I expected!
What a great reunion it was since the last time I had crossed paths with cows in 2021 on the border of Utah and Arizona. I was able to communicate with them and offer energy healing at a dairy farm and a few cattle ranches. It was a beautiful mutual exchange that occurred over a few days, with energy and messages both given and received.
In the weeks and months to come, I’ll be sharing more about their specific messages to me for this important time period on earth. But for now, I’ll leave you with something to ponder. It’s time to change things!
Similar to what I shared about domestic horses back in 2007 when my journey as an animal communicator began, all beings deserve the love, comfort, and nurturing support that we take for granted most days. Cows and many other farm animals don’t want to keep living the same kind of existence they’ve had with us since early times. It’s no longer appropriate for them or for humans to keep up these old ways.
I understand that this brings up big issues. At the very least, it is time to move beyond the factory farms. I’m not saying this means we all need to become vegetarian or vegan overnight. But how we raise or treat farm and other wild animals is up for question and review.
I am offering the option to look at how we can relate to them differently. This is why I am sharing how we can communicate with them and connect on deeper levels. And so it’s the time for many of us who are passionate about this topic to go further in our explorations and step forward on that path that is calling us!
The divine mother energy activates unconditional love, freedom and unlimited compassion for all beings. As we expand our consciousness, we recognize more and more how we are all one and the same, and that includes the animals and the nature kingdom.
If we can view cows or any other animal, wild or domestic, as our brothers and sisters, how would that impact our relationships with them? As I shared in my story above, cows are highly sensitive and responsive to our energy and love. With love and generosity, their sustenance has been offered to us freely since the earliest times. It’s worth considering how we would like to reciprocate to them as an expression of our gratitude, love, mercy and kindness.
With Love and Blessings! ~Heather

Congratulations on making it to the other side of the eclipse passageway! This last cycle of mercury retrograde was also challenging for many, and now we are through that as well. With the addition of the recent full moon in Scorpio, we have certainly had our fill of powerful transformation during this month of April.
For those who still might be feeling the echoes of the recent moon energies, take a deep breath and let go of any old feelings of loneliness, doubt, rejection, abandonment, depression or anxiety, or being unlovable. With the incoming cosmic energies we are receiving, including the mother plasma, solar flares, and magnetic shifts, we are finalizing the end of a very long cycle.
You might be experiencing body heaviness and continuing to feel very tired and lethargic at times. With the endings comes the need for rest and integration. Give yourself time as we wrap up the end of the cycle this month. We will be continuing to work with all the lessons and utilizing the energies of the eclipse gateway over the next six months.
There is so much happening on a physical level. Our DNA is upgrading, and as the water element inside of us shifts it releases encoded information that helps the crystalline body expand. Do what you can to help your body detox and stay as balanced as possible.
If you have any pain in the body, tend to that. It’s all part of the big changes your powerful physical vessel is making, so listen to the body and follow any guidance. Also, being in or around bodies of water can be of assistance to your own body’s transformation at this time. Doing so can bring more comfort, ease and flow within your body and in your life in general.
The body needs a break from old routines, habits and any stress or oppression. Take more time off work, put yourself in a new environment, go to a special place in nature, take a vacation or indulge in your favorite self-care activities. But most of all, do something different in how you move or operate physically. Your body will want to show up in a unique way. This will be an expression that is in alignment with his or her upgraded form.
As a new cycle commences on May 1st, it’s an opening for many lightworkers to implement the upgrades in their creative abilities. It starts with your next step. What do you want to do? What draws your attention or feels enLIGHTening or expansive to you? What have you been dreaming about? Instead of waiting for the opportunities to come to you, take action on your desires.
Even if all the puzzle pieces aren’t in yet and you only know what you feel called to do, you can begin the manifestation of your new reality by setting it in motion. If there is a group of people with whom you’d like to be in service, go where they are, and offer your gifts there. Contrarily, if it’s an area of nature, animals or some other special group that needs assistance, pick the place of your preference and begin working with these beings.
The same goes for writing a book, blogging, or starting a podcast, course or documentary series. Just get going on it. Take that first step! As you do, the universe will response by bringing you a cascade of additional options where you can be in service and receive abundance in return.
Know that in every way you decide to be in service, it will be mutually beneficial. As you receive and replenish yourself in the process, you will also feel inspired and motivated to do more–proof that you are moving in the right direction and finally coming out of any limiting and stagnant energy of the past.
And lastly, look at any patterns of lack in your life. This new beginning will take us into the summer solstice gateway. We have to be willing to give up operating from a place of survival or unworthiness. Ask yourself, where do you still give your power or energy away, acting from a codependent stance?
Start recognizing your value and assert yourself from there. It might feel challenging at first, as if you are trying on a new pair of shoes that feel uncomfortable or awkward. But as you begin to wear them, you will feel more at ease and confident in your progressive expression.
Reclaiming your power and operating from more of an abundant mindset can happen many different ways. Some examples can include quitting your job and following your calling, asking for a raise or promotion, and not settling for less than being fully honored and respected in all your relationships.
Where do you still have doubts and fear that you won’t have enough or may suffer losses in areas of work, money or relationships? It’s time to have full faith in your creative abilities and in your co-creation with Source and the universe! Begin with trust and act from a place of knowing what you deserve in every life area where that applies.
So go forward doing what you love for work, knowing that you will always have more than enough because you are in service to the light. When it comes to money and relationships, always ask for what you will need to thrive and expand. Let go of those who don’t honor you, so you can have more healthy and harmonious relationships.
Don’t fear any kind of loss. Know that anything that falls away or anyone who walks away only opens you up to experience more authenticity, joy, wellness, equality in giving and receiving, freedom, unconditional love and connection in relationships and other life areas.
With the cosmic energies and the current astrological alignments in Taurus, this is the time to take risks and leaps forward. You might be surprised by the increasing opportunities and fortuitous events that follow. And so it’s time; honor your greatest path of service and dream your new reality into being!
With Love, 🙂 Heather
PS: For more support during this time of integration and change, I am continuing my *Eclipse Special* on sessions through Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 12th!

Welcome to the winter solstice gateway! This is a sentimental, festive part of the year, a time for gatherings and celebration. But it is also a cycle for solitude, reflection and review as we make our way towards the end of the year. 2024 will open up as a crossroads for many. Your soul is guiding you in your new life trajectory. Are you listening? It’s important to pay attention to the intuitive awareness that will direct you as many are finally “turning the corner” on an old reality and beginning one they have been dreaming into being for the last decade or more!
Tests are part of this crossroad junction. Stay true to your soul and be willing to let go of anything inauthentic to your journey–old patterns, beliefs, jobs, relationships…or anything that no longer serves. Release all that you’re tied to only out of obligation, familiarity, or fear of not being safe or comfortable. The way forward is through finding the energy of what you desire on an internal level.
For those of us ready, we can regularly access and maintain those frequencies like love, peace, security, joy, connection and so much more, on the inside. This is how these energies and our soul level desires can continuously manifest in our personal realities. Many already have this level of mastery. If needed, use the spiritual/healing tools and practices that can help you continue to move into those higher energy states that support the creative dreams on your new life pathway.
It is from this place of being that we are all able to step up into our soul’s mission work or expand upon it. This is how we spread our light, gifts and codes into the changing world! If you want the upgraded soul’s purpose reality, it’s necessary to embody it first before it can be offered to others.
This is when the choice is truly made to align with and live in the new earth reality timeline with the rest of the ascending collective. When this happens, everything opens up to you. There’s often a greater sense of passion, flow, ease, grace, and fulfillment. Wonder and awe can be felt in even the most mundane experiences. You’ll often feel a sense of equanimity here, with no attachment to particular outcomes. There’s no grasping or pushing anything away, just a deep surrender to and acceptance of what is.
And there is also a remembrance of who you really are and why you’ve incarnated this time around. From this point forward there is no turning back! Even with the awareness of living on a planet that is increasingly lightening up yet still shrouded in darkness, those of us who have prepared are beginning our deepest work here. It involves assisting this planet and all inhabitants who desire to stay and be part of it, to move into balance, harmony and oneness.
If you don’t know it already, your remembrance activates the full revelation of what you are meant to do, express or be at this time, along with the process of how to go about it. For many of you who have been confused or unsure, this is when all of the pieces of the puzzle easily fall into place.
This is why the time and space for inward reflection at the end of this year is essential in order to receive all the downloads from your higher selves and divine directions for going forward. If you have concerns that it’s not yet time for you to step onto your new life path, just know that if you are reading this post, you are closer than you think to being ready.
In either case, ready or not, this entryway to the winter solstice time is the perfect occasion for further self-discovery, nurturing, gratefulness, enjoyment and most importantly, celebrating all that you’ve created thus far. It has been an extraordinary and challenging journey. And that has served you in getting to the launching point of where you are today!
Many Blessings and Happy Holiday Time! With love, Heather 🙂
