My friend Kassandra grew up feeling more comfortable with the animals in her life than she was with the people. Her parents and siblings were sometimes volatile while her dogs, cats and rescued baby wild animals were consistently loving, appreciative and kind. We all respond well to gentleness. And gentle is what Kassandra was.
Many people can remember talking with their animals telepathically while they were children. I do, and so did my friend, Kassandra. But, she simply never let go of that skill. Then, seeing a need as an adult, she began offering her services as an animal communicator. She would help concerned owners to understand the underlying problems their animals were experiencing. That is how I met Kassandra. A friend told me about her and I had a question about my horse's well-being. So, Kassandra came out to the barn and put both my horse's and my own mind at ease.
As the years went on, Kassandra and I got to know each other quite well and became friends. One day, we were out walking and came upon three hebe bushes in full bloom. They had lovely purple and white flower spikes that were rising up from the tips of all their branches. They were putting on a beautiful display and hundreds of bees were busily buzzing around them gathering nectar.
I wondered if Kassandra had ever spoken with an insect, so I asked her. She said to me in her characteristic drawl, "What do you want to know, Josephine?" I thought for a moment and asked, "Do bees know God?" Kassandra turned toward the hebes and bees. She got quiet for a moment with a open expression on her face. Then, instantaneously one individual bee came right up to us, hovering just two feet away from our faces and remained perfectly placed in the air before us. Kassandra's eyes grew a little wider and then she said, "The bee says, 'We all serve The One.'" With that and my understanding of her words, our bee zipped away and became lost in the crowd of her fellows busily working away.
All of life holds such incredible beauty and profound wisdom to share. May we all remember how to listen with such care.

Hello everyone. I've just created this little video with my dear friend Einar Berg. It's called Fields of Energetic Knowing. Everything is not only composed of energy, but everything has an energetic field that extends well beyond the physical shell. Learning how to engage with this field is one of the most important things we do to increase our sensitivity to our world on all levels. Join me for this brief video on how we can learn about the energy fields that we communicate with.

This past weekend I was in Los Angeles at my Aunt's Young Artists Award Ceremony. Maureen Dragone passed away a year and some months ago, but her legacy lives on through the honoring of young actors and actresses for their achievements in theater and film. Her mother, my grandmother, Nora Laing, had founded the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and the Golden Globes Award. She did this some seventy years prior with a handful of friends, while my aunt was in her teens. In her young years, my aunt was inspired by Jackie Coogan and others young professionals whose efforts as child stars went either largely uncompensated or largely unrecognized. So she followed in her mother's footsteps and crated an organization that would let young performers meet on a more equal playing field, separate from the adults, one that would fully acknowledge their noteworthy contributions to entertainment. Now, here I find myself, in a ballroom full of very talented young people, tomorrow's big stars, wondering what amazing things they will accomplish in the lives that lay ahead for them.
Most of these young people know each other very well. They follow each others careers and work very closely. And they are all so supportive and encouraging, cheering each other on. As the names of the nominees were called out, whoops and hollers of joy and commendation would arise from different areas of the room, simmering down to an overall applause from everyone. Then, as the winners were announced, after the celebratory din died down, the text messages would begin to fly. Congratulating, consoling, sending thoughts and words of support and love, not only to each other, but also to family members at home and friends around the globe.
It reminded me of telepathy and what Einstein called, "Spooky action at a distance." This is where particles from the same atom are separated by a vast distance. Then something is done to one of those particles and it results in a reaction or response. But the particle that had the experience is not the only one that reacts. The other particle, the one that is connected but far away also has the same reaction.
This is where physicists and metaphysicians meet, the realm of telepathy. An event occurs to a loved one on a distant continent, and we wake up, knowing that something has happened. And here are all these children in this ballroom texting their messages instantaneously around the globe. It's very like telepathy and right in keeping with the patterns we find in quantum physics.
As I sat there remembering my aunt and my grandmother before me, basking in their legacy, it occurred to me that with cell phones and texting, we have all moved one more substantial step farther along the road to recognizing our oneness and our interconnectedness. The only step remaining is realizing that we can do this without a device. We already have within us the Quantum Entanglement of our deeper knowings, where two particles or people are so deeply linked that they share the same existence. This is spooky action at a distance, that ability to know instantaneously, just like texting, but it's telepathy.
With that, I'll just let you all know that I'm thinking of you.
