Whale + Dolphin Circle
About the monthly Whale + Dolphin Circle
The Whale + Dolphin Circle began in December 2018 and has continued every month since. It is my monthly offering of gratitude to both the Fauna Speak community and my lifelong guides, the Cetaceans (the order of Whales, Dolphins and Porpoises). It now alternates between Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons (Pacific Time) to accommodate a variety of time zones. Folks join the Zoom Video meeting from all over the world! Some even staying up into the wee hours of the night to participate.
The Whale + Dolphin Circle is a connective cocoon for the Whales and Dolphins to bring forth their messages to humanity, offer encouragement and provide tangible ways of navigating life. All the while imbuing the many layers of ourselves with nourishing frequencies and sensations. Their timely messages are typically punctuated by or folded into a visualization journey guided by Cetaceans following heartfelt introductions from circle participants. This gathering is a buoyant and supportive space to glean inspiration from the Cetaceans and each other in symbiotic appreciation.
There is no charge for the Zoom Meeting or to participate, but you are welcome to include a donation - our current recipient is Whale Guardians (of the Great Whale Conservancy).
Email me at faunaspeak@gmail.com to be placed on the email list and receive the meeting details on the day of or day before the Whale + Dolphin Circle. Reference my EVENTS page for upcoming circles and other Fauna Speak events and workshops.

Celebrating 5 years of the Whale + Dolphin Circle with a gift of Frequensea
Enjoy the brief video I took from our island home of Humpback’s swimming at sunset paired with FayePatrick’s soundscape. The video will fade to black around 30 seconds, inviting you to close your eyes and continue to immerse into the frequenseas.

I was inspired to send a gift of frequensea to you this New Year.
The Whales have been particularly hugging and holding me close these past few months. My cold, winter swims braiding us together even more molecularly.
And I have realized it has been 5 full years of the Whale + Dolphin Circle!
I wanted to celebrate and bathe in Cetacean connection with y'all to begin the year. Luxuriate in the spaciousness of ocean love and align us even further with the signatures of the sea. I dream of even more Whale collaboration this upcoming year. Imagining ample avenues to communicate their messages, healing energies and commune with water.
Partnering with FayePatrick Kennedy's incredible soundscapes is a great place to start. The Whales communicate so much in sound and frequency, subtle-but-big energies beyond our comprehension and vocabulary. The Dolphins in directive sonar and scientific accuracy. The Porpoises in quiet, embodied embrace. Thinking of the ones at the poles and equator as I weave these very words. From the largest to the smallest, we have a chorus of support all around us this fresh start of a year. May their song draw us in to more receiving and amplified connection.
Join the Whale + Dolphin Circle anytime. Email faunaspeak@gmail.com for details. Individual Whale + Dolphin sessions are also available.

A generous, golden bubble net to begin. A cast of heavenly light upon your faces. How very cold water can almost feel warm.
A message to your molecules of infinite life alive in the sea. We whisper to each of them individually tides of good news. Even the subtle, whimsical dreams of your heart are nearing or within grasp. Instruction to keep your ears close to the ocean this year, allow your eyes to move sea through you. Trust the churning of your own heart and enjoy the sensation; allow things to wash in and out with ease. Each time carrying from what is no longer needed and delivering the diamond of your desires in quiet moments. Be with what presents. Know that you are tuned in and attuned in special ways you will continue to remember as the year unfurls. It is no matter where your year begins, only that you try to describe where you are in the season and settle into the space speaking through you.
Enjoy swimming in our ancient wisdom. Wisdom not unique to us but of which we are a unique vessel; in addition to custodians and curators of current energies. Let the softness of our song relax and cradle you as gentle ocean waves fall like silk (the way water moves across our backs). We are islands of our own. You, too are an island of thoughtful creation. You, too are an instrument of many strings. Humans are not alone but a composite of infinite threads. We invite you to dance in our songs. Not just to our songs, but rather inspired and artful movement within the audible/frequency’d expression of our bodies’ caverns and fields.

What a humbling joy it is to translate for the Whales, from the deep to the surface, tiny to vast. Thank you for journeying with us.

A note from FayePatrick:
This Healing Soundscape is a vocal sonic reflection of the healing frequencies impressed upon my heart while in reverent meditation, deep listening and sacred communion with the Cetacean during this new year’s liminal passing.
It is always a humbling experience to invite and be with another being(s) in this co-creative energetic space. Quieting my body and mind. Gently bridging my focus between my heart and throat centers. Finally, giving myself over in complete trust to the frequencies arriving and simultaneously digesting them in order to allow myself unencumbered vocalization.
For you dear listener, there is no prescribed way to receive this Healing Soundscape. Listen how and where and when you feel most called to do so. Only you know when your heart is most receptive to receiving.
For those who desire to be more deeply welcomed into this sonic offering by the Cetacean, they invite you to create a meditative moment for yourself. 10min to be curious about the interconnectedness of your heart, body, mind and spirit. 10min to listen with your sensual body (both physical and energetic bodies) more than with your judging mind. 10min to welcome another being(s) into your grief, into your joy, into the very heart of your existence. They want you to feel supported in the ease of unconditional love that threads itself over and over again in every vibration, every silence, every breath captured, every vocalization. Enjoy!

Visualizations
A cocooned journey with the scientific, specific and elegantly unique Sperm Whale. With a dose of swim school with the Grey Whales in their buoyant, birthing lagoons.
Experience more HERE on the ‘Visualization’ section of my website. Featuring journeys from within the monthly Whale + Dolphin Circle and other Fauna Speak events. The visualization portion of the Circle follows a time of sharing amongst participants as we weave the tapestry of intention for our time with the Cetaceans.
Above: Commissioned art by: Lauryn Fly, @laurynf_illustration in May, 2023. Featuring the incredible migration of a mother Gray Whale and her calf swimming North from Baja to Alaska, sheltered by kelp on their ancient pilgrimage. They are the first wild whales I ever met, and how generously they invited and initiated me into a perpetual journeying with them.
Participant Reflections
— CHRISTINE NOBLE SELLER, ANIMAL COMMUNICATOR — KINGSTON, ON
My heart is full having found Kristen and the gift of her monthly Circle. Kristen creates a warm, welcoming space, fostering community for cetacean lovers (from around the world). During channelled visualizations, Kristen deftly balances delivery of both group and personal messages from the whales and dolphins. With an authentic heart, generous spirit, and gift for words, Kristen shares a collective vision for a new earth, living in harmony with all life.
— SARAH R., INTUITIVE CHRONIC ILLNESS AND NUTRITION COACH — TUCSON, AZ
I'm so grateful that I've been a part of every Whale & Dolphin Healing Circle since the circle's inception! Kristen radiates a supportive softness & groundedness throughout the whole group while channeling powerful messages from the cetacean family & any other animals that come through. Strangers or friends; everyone feels like soul family in this group! This circle is a great place to start if you're interested in connecting more deeply with the animal kingdom and your own heart.
— JEN JIVANI, YOGA INSTRUCTOR AND EARTH STEWARD — PALM SPRINGS, CA
You are one of the purest channels I've ever encountered...
I resonate with your voice so much, and your languaging. And all the FEELS for sure. Being an empath, you speak direct to my spirit and my nature...
and this call was pure magick & healing balm for my soul!
— TRINITY CAPILI, CREATURE PACE — PORTLAND
Ancient love.
Starfish and tide pool magic.
I remain in the waves of Love from last night's gathering in the depths.
Much gratitude for you and our interconnection!
— ALISON WINCHESTER — NASHVILLE, TN
I am so grateful for participating in Kristen's Whale and Dolphin Circle conference call. After the call, I felt a wonderful surge of energy coming through, like a much needed quench on the dehydrated heart, that the Orca were teaching us about. Additionally, I feel a wonderful sense of lingering validation, that one can only receive from magical moments like these, when like minded strangers gather together for healing, encouragement and to remind each other that we have to be true to who we are at source. Fauna Speak (Kristen) is a very pure, loving and powerful channel that bridges the gap to our beloved animal kingdom.
— CHRISSY CAMPBELL, MIND/BODY/MOVEMENT COACH - MILWAUKEE, WI
I cannot believe what an enriching opportunity this was and how grateful I am that I ended up in that circle of beautiful voices, stories, and wisdom.
— CHRISTI C., DREAMWORK GUIDE AND SOUND THERAPIST - NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
I just wanted to thank you again for such an inspired evening, I really look forward to joining the circle in the months ahead. What a truly lovely gathering of souls, and such important and deep work!
I had an EPIC dream last night—the kind I call “cinematic”—and I’m quite sure our time with the Cetaceans had a lot to do with that.
