In South Africa, they call Jann Weiss "The Elephant Whisperer." She has experienced documented success in communicating telepathically with elephants that have been traumatized and are displaying violent behavior. She has worked with elephants who were about to be put down for their uncontrolled and dangerous actions, and has spent time "talking" to them telepathically, through a process she describes as transmitting the essence or feeling of the communication, explaining to them the reasons for the actions humans have taken with them. She is compiling an impressive list of successful encounters in interspecies communication with elephants in South African game reserves that have directly affected the behavior of the animals in a positive way.

By adding the universal year 2000 (2+0+0+0 = 2) to the 3rd month of March, we come up with the vibration of 5. The 5 month is a time for synthesizing all of the knowledge and experiences you¹ve acquired over the last four months. Look to see what you have been learning and how this information may fit into a larger system of knowledge that you can then disseminate to others. The 5 month also signifies greater participation and possibilities in any media-related business: writing, speaking, teaching, or promotion.

Control is a funny thing. Just when I think I'm making progress in letting go of it, the trickster spirits up the ante, and I realize I'm a beginner once again.

One of my major enjoyments in life is to watch and experience the ways in which Life/God/Spirit/Guru reveals the lessons I need to learn. I see each lesson as a potential adventure, an opportunity to participate in one detective mystery after another.

Before that, I was a fundamentalist religious zealot, right out there with the rest, knocking on doors, selling my own brand of God, not having the faintest idea about what I was really saying or how I might in fact be hurting those I wished to "enlighten." And then when I took a turn at studying psychology... Oh, it's too painful to think about...

"You haven't changed a bit," she says. "You look great."
"Thanks," I reply, "I feel good." But I wonder to myself if she knows the truth. The truth is, I am dying.
"No, no!" I imagine her uneasy shift when I tell her. "You look great. Really!"
