But this interest has also led to some understandable misconceptions and myths around the mystery of animal communication.

So in this post, we’ll explore the myths about animal and reveal the truth surrounding animal communication.

So, let’s dive right in!

11 Common Myths about Animal Communication

1. Animal Communicators Manipulate Pets

Animal communication is not a way to control or manipulate an animal’s mind, it is quite the opposite. Animal communication is about spiritually bonding with an animal, through the feeling of love, compassion, and curiosity. It requires a genuine interest in getting to know them and understand their needs.

Animal communicators can help build trust, strengthen the bond with the animals, and improve their overall well-being. Sometimes, this may require some type of negotiation between the animal and the pet parent, or vice versa.

For instance, we may talk to the animal about their destructive behavior and find out why they are doing it. Then let them know how the destructive behaviour affects the family and suggest a healthy outlet as an alternative. It helps all family members understand the other’s perspective to help find a resolution. Most of the time the problem resolves itself, but, we cannot command an animal to do anything, they too have the freedom of choice.

2. Pet Psychics Speak to pets using words

One of the most prevalent misconceptions about animal communication is that it involves speaking to animals in human spoken words. However, animal communication is usually non-verbal. They exchange messages and important information about their lives in the form of images, feelings, sounds, emotions, and sensations. It is a subtle form of communication that floods into us as a knowingness which then gets translated into human language.

But newcomers to animal communication can initially struggle with this idea. Many expect to have a conversation, and receive clear and concise messages from the animals. This can discourage them, leading them to think that they cannot communicate with animals. But the truth is, that they can. Just not in the way they think it is.

3. Only gifted people can communicate With Pets

Animal Communication is not a gift for just a few special people. In fact, we are all born with the ability to communicate with animals. Some of us have simply forgotten how to do it. But it is a skill that anyone can develop with training and practice.

Once you have mastered this skill, you will be able to communicate with both wild and domesticated animals. You will build closer bonds with animals as you will hear their thoughts, sense their emotions, and understand what is going on in their lives.

4. Pet psychics can Replace Veterinary Care

Animal communication can provide valuable insights into an animal’s well-being, feelings, needs, and wants. And oftentimes, animal communicators recommend their clients seek medical advice from a qualified veterinarian for health-related concerns.

It is important to note that animal communication is not a substitute for veterinary care. But an animal communicator can act as a communication channel to support your animal during difficult or challenging times.

If your beloved pet is showing any signs of illness, please contact your local vet as soon as possible.

5: Animal Communication can Substitute Training

People often contact animal communicators to address behavioral issues with their animals. It can help pet parents understand the root cause of behavioral problems and address their needs. Animal communication should not replace proper training and socialization.

In fact, when paired together, it provides emotional support and keeps the communication channels open between the animal, the trainer, and the pet parent. If your animal has received training and they are still displaying behavioral problems, you could try booking an animal communication session.

6: it is Only Beneficial for Behavioral Issues

Most people contact animal communicators when their animals are experiencing emotional issues, physical challenges, behavioral problems, or when they are ready to transition into the afterlife.

But animal communication can offer wonderful insights into our animal’s preferences, needs, desires, and wishes. Giving them a voice and acknowledging their words is a beautiful expression of love and respect. It not only makes our animals happier but it also strengthens the bond between humans and animals.

7. It is a One-Time Fix for All problems

A common misconception is the belief that a single session with an animal communicator will resolve all of their pet’s issues or concerns. In reality, animal communication can be a one-off session here and there or as an ongoing process.

Just like us, our animal’s needs, preferences, feelings, and physical fitness change over time. For instance, when we lose a loved one we may seek professional help to help us overcome the pain. Alternatively, we may find it difficult to adjust to a home relocation or a new living arrangement. Having the right support can make all the difference. Animal communication is not a quick fix, but a tool for fostering a deeper, ongoing relationship with animals and looking out for their wellbeing.

8. Sessions cannot be done remotely

Another common misconception is that animal communication requires face-to-face contact, but this is not true. In fact, most sessions happen online, using a photo to establish an energetic connection with the animal. This allows us to accurately send and receive messages from any location around the world.

9. It is only possible with domesticated animals

Animal communication is not exclusive to pet owners. It can be used in various contexts, such as wildlife conservation, animal welfare, and even communicating with animals encountered in everyday life, like stray animals or creatures in the wild. It is a versatile skill with applications beyond personal pet relationships.

10. All Animals Can Communicate Equally Well

Just as humans have varying degrees of communication skills, animals also differ in their ability to communicate with humans or animal communicators. Some animals may be more responsive and open to communication, while others might be more reserved or shy. It’s important to respect an animal’s boundaries and not force communication upon them.

11. All Animal Communicators Are the Same

Not all animal communicators are equal in terms of skill, approach, or ethics. Some may be more experienced, empathetic, or skilled in connecting with animals than others.

Additionally, animal communicators may have different methods, belief systems, and techniques. It’s crucial to do your research and choose an animal communicator who aligns with your values and needs.

Final thoughts

Animal communication is a complex and multifaceted practice that extends beyond the misconceptions that sometimes surround it.

By addressing and debunking these common misunderstandings, we can foster a more accurate understanding of animal communication as a valuable tool for deepening the bonds between humans and animals, enhancing our understanding of their needs, and contributing to their well-being.
