Today we will discuss whether animals fear death.
Hi! My name is Danielle Mackinnon and I specialize in animal communication. I connect psychically with both living animals as well as those on the other side.
I have spoken with numerous animals about the process of crossing over. In fact, I would say I know more than anyone about what happens over there and their feelings on it than anyone else – this being one of the primary topics people come to me for advice and answers on.
Question: Do Animals Fear Death? One of the most frequently asked questions I receive is: is my pet afraid to cross over?
Now, when someone asks me that question, what it usually signifies and when I tap into them and their animal is that they are fearful about when and how their animal will cross over; specifically when will that occur and will it be okay.
Fear-related situations often prompt them to ask me this question and try to tap into their animal.
Are You Wondering Do Animals Fear Death To answer this question, first explore your own fears around an animal crossing over. A positive approach by you as their human can greatly aid their journey and ensure a calm transition for their companion animal.
But let’s say your emotions were more volatile – animals understand. I have spoken to numerous animals whose humans were crying, worried, upset and distraught during the crossing over process – they all understood. Never once have I met an animal that said: ‘Well she didn’t do a good job now I’m mad at her”. It simply doesn’t work that way.
If you can take a moment now to step back and reflect, and bring yourself back into an equilibrium, that would be helpful. Saying out loud to yourself “My pet will cross over soon; nothing I can do about this; all I can do now is be there in full force as she or he crosses over. Calm down now.” is very positive and helps expedite their transition.
However, pretending you are willing for your animal to cross but really not being.
Now imagine you are helping euthanize a pet and you pretend, without really meaning it, that everything is fine with you and that all is good when, in truth, that is not how it feels for either of you. Doing this only serves to send mixed signals about what really lies ahead for them both as they transition.
Solution
Your best option would be to say to your dog: “I am so heartbroken about our separation, but please send your love regardless. Animals that have passed enjoy hearing that from their human.” This gesture often brings comfort.
Animals have also shown me pictures from up above of their passing. So, the animal has shown up as though outside its body – in this instance in a veterinarian’s office with me seeing their top of head visible and their dog sitting on his lap – while saying to me “Hey, she told me this is how she really felt; she was always strong and there for me.”
Are Animals Fearful of Death…
So, are animals afraid of death… the answer can be complex! When animals show fear they usually do so out of concern for their human and not themselves. For instance they might say something like, “My human might find this too distressing so I want to stick around a little longer”, or they could say they want to cross over quickly so as not to cause unnecessary suffering during their transition process. They are very adept at coming up with different strategies to ease them through the transition process in a timely fashion and help ease them through transition processes to ensure as little suffering possible during that transition process! They are very smart at helping their human navigate this transition process in order to ensure maximum benefit from crossing over processes in order to ensure smooth passage and ensure maximum benefit from crossing over.
Animals have always been great teachers to us humans; they have perfected unconditional love while we still don’t, which we see throughout society! So, their goal is always to help us learn it too; crossing over can often serve as an avenue for this growth process. That means our pets’ deaths may serve as a means to help us grow. Human beings don’t learn and develop when life is smooth and perfect – rather, when all is good we go about our day-to-day business unaffected. When things don’t go as we planned, when we’re hurting or dissatisfied with life in general, that is when change must come about. Now is when the chance arises for us to become better people who love more sincerely – you can find more on this in my Animal Lessons book (with steps for learning the lesson before your pet passes!).
Fear or Not?
Do animals fear death? Not necessarily. Animals tend to think more of us when crossing over, wanting us to have the best experience possible from their crossing over. Unfortunately, that means they often take paths that present unique challenges for us humans.
Animals understand their environment intuitively through two levels. If I connect psychically with an animal at the three dimensional (3D) level, that animal might focus on daily matters like “My foot hurts.” or he might say things such as, “I dislike my brother and it’s always cold here in my house.” On another note, however, at this level he might say things such as, “Yes, I am afraid to die; however this is not where I prefer connecting.”
I enjoy connecting on a deeper, soul-level with animals. When you engage them at this level, their death becomes planned out; they know who will be present, what’s going to happen and why. Furthermore, they’re looking out for your wellbeing by making sure you gain as much knowledge from their passing as possible.
Animals don’t fear crossing over, as it is part of nature’s plan for our spiritual development.
Sending love
People frequently ask me whether animals fear death, but remember this: Animals want to assist human consciousness in growing and evolving – this is their way of helping us do that! So on some deep level they understand crossing over is part of being here in this life, helping human consciousness expand. So no, at heart level no. They know crossing over is part of being human!
