AAA: Ask Animals Anything
AAA: Ask Animals Anything
Animals are an incredible intersection of physical wisdom and incorporeal insight, skillfully situated in the present. In seeking animal expertise, we utilize a most kindred navigational system.
Ubiquitously earth, our biological overlap with the animals is an unparalleled asset in understanding ourselves and what’s possible in ways we weren’t taught. Many examples in mammal bodies, even! Species-specific knowledge, cosmic and elemental connection; fauna culture, families and groups all hold a piece of the puzzle simply not found in human context. Both our lineages and destines are indivisible.
The entirety of my offerings + ethos are already in devotion to the animals in this way. But I felt the velvety-nose nudge from them to create a specific space dedicated to the idea that we can not only ask the animals anything, but it is intrinsic to our most wholesome futures. That it is time to increase and strengthen lines of communication amongst our species. To inquire of their needs and knowledge in symbiotic benefit to all.
I love their cleverness in naming this new offering, too. An analog throwback to when A’s, sometimes in repetition, were used to hoist one’s service to the top of the list in the phone book. The animals want to increasingly collaborate and resource. Maybe even be the first we think of with an inquiry or challenge, but certainly always considered. Wanting to be on speed dial, they say.
They are eager to release this offering because things are speeding up; expansion accelerates. You’ve likely noticed your own relationship to time, memory and future all shifting. How you can walk within time and bounce up and down; there’s an elasticity to what previously felt concrete. Prompting us to change the ways we have been synthesizing and doing. Older systems are too slow and crumbling to keep up with the pace of insight required, but thankfully all we have to do is connect to gain access to the aforementioned navigation. In this trajectory, interspecies communication transitions from niche to necessary. With very real implications to ecosystem health, human health, human systems, veterinary care, conservation, our relationship to science in general, even a shared cosmology. But also our relationships; the ones we seek, the ones we have. Our joy, our emotions, our needs as humans. We can ask the animals anything.
Inquiring in this way strengthens of our web of connection. Whilst widening the aperture for more human participation. Find yourself deeper in the inner circle of the animals and our interwoven future. Ask anything.
Even reading this is a gift back to the animals and our mutual dreaming, they say, from our bodies to theirs and back again. So thanks for reading along.
