Most of my students and clients, and most practitioners of animal communication are women. Why is that? I have been thinking about that question for years. My conclusion is that it is because of the differences in the way boys and girls are raised. In his article Why Men Can’t Feel, Marvin Allen explains how boys and girls each receive different messages from the moment they are born. He states,

[T]hese messages encourage boys to be competitive, focus on external success, rely on their intellect, withstand physical pain, and repress their vulnerable emotions. When boys violate the code, it is not uncommon for them to be teased, shamed, or ridiculed. The cliche about men not being in touch with their emotions says nothing about inherent markers of maleness, but instead identifies behavioral outcomes that have been rigorously taught, often by well-meaning parents and society at large.

 

Little boys are comforted less, nurtured less, and parents of both sexes are more punitive toward their sons, presumably working under the assumption that boys can take it. In contrast, girls are allowed to maintain emotional expressiveness and cultivate connection. Boys are told to suppress their emotions, be unemotional, logical, in control, and strong.

When confronted with the prospect of animal communication, which is all about feeling and compassion and being vulnerable, many men turn heel and run. Once during a radio interview, Rupert Sheldrake, a British microbiologist and author of, Dogs that Know when their Owners Are Coming Home, told a story about a scientist colleague of his with whom he was having a beer. The colleague said to Sheldrake, ‘Rupert I believe that animals are telepathic, but you don’t expect me to admit that in public do you?’

I consider this gender gap as entirely artificial. I don’t believe women are better at intuition and psychic ability than men, I just think women let themselves engage their intuition to a greater extent than men. These abilities are not gifts that only certain people have, but a birthright that we all possess. I do, however, get the odd funny call from a wife who bought my book only to have it whisked away by her husband who then becomes an adept and devotee of animal communication, but of course only in private. I also have trained a few men who have become quite good at communicating.

To excel at animal communication, you need to practice, starting with learning the basics. If you want to learn with me, we can do that in a private tutoring session by phone or video whenever you like. Once you have the basics you can take any of the classes I offer online which are listed on my website.

Readers’ Questions

Q

Is there a way to tell or know if you are letting your own thought or feelings influence your reading? Is there a way to filter that out, or does it just come with time and experience.

A

There really is no way to control that for certain. You can set an intention before you do a reading to be impartial and get the truth. If you know you have a bias at the start you can intend to set that aside. Then you have to go check your results with the person who knows the animal. Verification is the only way to prove that your results are accurate. Over time as you do this practice you get more comfortable with the uncertainty inherent in intuitive work.
