The Animals Spoke

The Animals Spoke tells of two star children’s mission to gather valuable information about their new destination prior to being born on Earth. Upon discovering that human behaviour is far more complex than that of animals, the two newcomers seek to obtain much advice about dealing with people by speaking to the animals who live closest to them so that the two brave star children are well-prepared when they take on the challenge of coming to Earth. “Judith Victoria Deer’s book The Animals Spoke is a wonder-filled mythos for the young and old alike, one that contains powerful insights into the nature of our uniquely human culture. The animals in her story are Zen masters all, and their messages to us are compelling. Among them: We all have to live the life we were born to live, and in doing so, we must trust that the truth lies in the purity of our hearts for it is there that we find our foundation. This is a book that brings together knowledge and power in a way through which we all may be redeemed. And in this redemption lies a deep insight: our human consciousness that we take so much for granted is nested into a mosaic of uncountable other minds on our planet Earth, only some of which happen to be human.”Hank Wesselman Ph.D., anthropologist and author of the Spiritwalker Trilogy, the award-winning Awakening to the Spirit World (with Sandra Ingerman), The Bowl of Light, and his forthcoming The Re-enchantment: A Shamanic Path to a Life of Wonder"The Animals Spoke will touch a deep chord of wonder and awe."Dr. Steven Farmer, author of Animal Spirit Guides and Earth Magic“The Animals Spoke is filled with the deep wisdom of our animal brothers and sisters, the keepers of the sacred wisdom. If ever a book could kindle your fire and inspire you to see life from a different perspective, this is it. In my tradition, the Yaqui tradition, we used storytelling as the way to teach the ’Wisdom of the World.’ The world was divided into kingdoms and the animal kingdom was one of many kingdoms. It was said that in the beginning times the animals and people were as one and talked and communicated with one another. There are many who believe this is still true to this day. Animals are sacred beings who hold the secrets of hidden wisdom of Mother Earth. Judith, you are a very wise teacher and we enjoyed the wisdom and lessons in your story. Thank you for this honor. If you want your heart to sing and have hidden wisdom brought to you in a delightful way, this is the book for you."Lench Archuleta, Yaqui Elder Sonoran DesertJudith Victoria Deer is also the author of The Fairy Spoke, The Plants Spoke and The Wise Old Trees had Much to Tell.www.judithvictoriadeer.com
