This is a gloriously gorgeous healing experience - the beauty and poetry of connection through the mystery of grief and a deeply spiritual encounter of faith and trust.
I too have experienced a miraculous healing encounter with a horse and horses. Being in a ring while sobbing with grief after my partner of many years was robbed, shot and killed. Not only did Utah stand by me in the ring and whinnied while I screamed and wailed, but neighboring horses began whinnying along with my wailing too. This continued for sometime. Utah was a horse that had a rough history of abuse which included him protecting himself by nipping. He was brought from Utah to Minnesota and started working with Special Needs children and adults where he never once nipped and was gentle and patient. Utah was the same working with me - now helping me heal, as he followed me around the ring as I moved, and then a choir of neighboring horses joining in this very mysteriously healing encounter. I know to not ever underestimate the extraordinary power of the natural world to offer their keen attunement to the Earth, and to humans as we all walk upon and humbly share the same beautiful planet.
