Yes natural they can speak, everything speaks. Trees, plants, what ever.
I think/hope we will get our ability back to hear them. Its us who are limited in our communication.
Yes I can talk to animals sometimes, if I connect my words to a picture or feeling.
But you don't have to speak it out loud, it can telepathic.
There are also connections with your hart.
Ones a toad spoke to me.
I was lying on a sheet on a field in my garden. At the edge, there was a fence covered with ivy and it was also on the ground. That was the coolest and most moist place of the garden. I was reading a book about Findhorn and spirits who can talk to you. I also read in that period about water and how much we must drink in one day (three litre !).
It was a sunny dag, very hot and lie there toasting.
Then suddenly I heared a voice in my head: "water...water..."
I jumpt up and I thought, that must be such a small spirit that warns me that I must drink water because its so hot and its not good, etc.
So I went to the kitchen took some water, went to the garden again and there sat a toad. In the middle of my sheet, in the middle of the field, in the boiling sun.
This picture was so strange that I immidiately thought it had to be the toad that ask for water. So I went again to the kitchen, took a dish/basin, put water in it and run back. The toad was still sitting there in the middle of my sheet, he must be dehydrated I thought. I bent down to put the basin on the ground, but before I came there, the toad jumped in the basin but he really could not know that there was water in it, it was not possible that he had seen it because it was to high when he jumped. He knew it!
I put them near the fence, because I thought he must live there somewhere. Telephone rings, friends came, my dogs ran in the garden, etc. and I did not think about the toad anymore. The folowing day I saw the basin and remember the toad, but I did not see him, I scared out of my wits, I thought my dogs could have eaten him, so I sat on my knees and asked inwardly : "toad, if you are still alive, please show yourself". And there the ivy moved up and down, and the toad appeared. Well, that could be an coincidence (if that exist).
And I speak to my dogs also and also with trees and plants, you must, because they are living creatures. There are many proofs of plants having feelings.
