The energies here on the Sunshine Coast are very heavy this Tuesday morning as the enormity of Steve Irwin’s death settles within the animal world. It feels like a great weight has descended just a few feet above my head. The zoo is about 10 kilometers from where I live and the energy comes in waves. The collective consciousness of both humans and animals are creating this energy as everyone comes to terms with this life-changing event.

On hearing of his death on Monday at about 2.30 pm the only message that came through for me was, “What a great loss to the animal world”. This message was to further unfold. I personally was shocked as is the normal human reaction. How sad for his family. I have watched the news reports and seen everyone’s reactions, they are so shocked and sad. He died doing what he absolutely loved; maybe it would have been more tragic if he had died in a car or plane accident as human reaction would have been more at a loss trying to explain it.

This morning, I watched an interview with one of his staff members who related the story of what happened after the zoo closed Monday afternoon. He commented on the silence of the place when the staff gathered to get a grip on the news. Even the animals were silent. Then it hit me: why the energies around here are as they are and what my message, “What a great loss to the animal world,” really meant.

I tapped into the animal world and the communications are huge and coming from everywhere. The animals are at a great loss, feeling they have lost a great man who had campaigned and brought their world out to the human world. They have not always agreed with the way he has done it, but in the big picture, humans now have more regard for animals in general because of the way he has done this. He always did what he thought was best for the animal world, all animals agree on that.

As animal communicators and healers it is up to us to send love and healing to the world as a whole: for all the animals, Steve Irwin’s family and friends and all the people of this planet. We need to bring the human world to the next level of connection with the animal world. Steve Irwin started this connection and we as animal communicators and healers will carry it on.

We were all friends of Steve Irwin, some may not have liked the man or agreed with his methods, but just sit and reflect on how this man with a larrikin personality has affected your lives.
