What are a few of the ways people can communicate with animals?
In my experience so far, each person receives the communication in a way that is unique and comfortable to them. Animals communicate telepathically through pictures, thoughts, and feelings/emotions. Often folks will initially receive flashes of thought with pictures, and it will continue from there. It is important to understand that you can’t receive their thoughts if your own mind is very chaotic and busy. Learning how to relax and be peaceful in the presence of an animal is key, and having an attitude of respect and reverence. Be receptive, and allow the animals to teach you.
