Communicating with Sacred Animals by Leslie Cirinesi
A Time for Change
Way back in August of 2015, I wrote my very first article for Star Nations Magazine. I was granted a section of the magazine called “Communicating with Sacred Animals”. As you can imagine, it was a time filled with so much excitement to be able to share my gift of Animal Communication with you all. I was anxious to try to explain how Animals communicate with me and the types of things that they tell me, in hopes that you would understand that these beautiful creatures are wiser and more knowing than most people realize. As a professional Animal Communicator, I talk to all kinds of Animals on a daily basis. I just thought how much fun it would be to share those experiences with you and give you a glimpse into my world.
I love working with the Grizzly Bears there and it opened up some wonderful doors for me. A very special resident at the Montana Grizzly Encounter is Brutus the Bear and he really helped me along my journey to becoming more proficient at Animal Communication. I give him so much credit because he is the one who helped me to “get it”. He is a sweet, gentle creature and it
has been one of the highlights of my life to get to know him on such a personal level. Fast forward five and a half years to the present day, you can imagine that a few things have changed in my world. The most recent change is that in the last month I have actually moved from Michigan to Montana and I live only 4 miles from the Montana Grizzly Encounter. Brutus the Bear is now my neighbor and just yesterday was Brutus’s birthday. All Bears are born in January or February, but Brutus is the only one that they know for sure of his actual birth date. So, they celebrate the birthdays of all five of the rescued Bears on Brutus’s birthday and there was a celebration for all of them. Cakes were made for each Bear and other delicious treats. If you ever wondered what to get a Grizzly Bear for a birthday present, I can tell you what I got them. Avocados, almonds, dried cranberries, dried mangos, honey, jam, granola, assorted nuts and berries and oranges. I love to watch the

Bears eat oranges because you would think they would eat it in two bites and it would vanish. The truth is that they are actually very dainty with the oranges. They start by peeling the orange with one of their long four-inch nails and then pull it apart in sections as you or I would and eat it section by section. It is like watching a person in a Bear suit eating an orange. When they eat avocados, they leave the skin and the pit when they are done.

As I sit here in Montana and look out over the mountains, I am already dreaming of Springtime. The Spring Equinox is a very special time, and it brings about change in the world. Change can be good, or it can be tough for some people, even if the change is positive. Even for Animals change can be a difficult thing. Think of how many Animals are rescued and adopted only to be anxious or aloof. I talk to many

I wrote that first article about the Grizzly Bears that reside at the Montana Grizzly Encounter in Bozeman, Montana. This is a Grizzly Bear Rescue and Education Sanctuary that was established in 2004 and houses five rescued Grizzly Bears from bad captive situations or certain death in the wild. I even traveled from Michigan to be in Montana when I wrote that first article to make it more “authentic”. I thought that if I was right there, within mere feet of a Grizzly Bear, that the realness would pour through my words, onto the pages and into the magazine for you. That was my wish.
