Sagittarius Way

Sagittarius Way is the work of Renée Vos de Wael, an animal communicator who describes herself as the sole force behind it. Her focus is the well-being of both humans and animals, and she aims to go beneath the surface. She communicates intuitively with animals through images, words, energy and emotions.

Renée says the gift opened up to her as a young girl. As a child she found solace in talking with animals, and in those conversations she found an understanding and acceptance she had not known elsewhere. She welcomed those exchanges rather than fearing them. In adulthood she learned to embrace the gift and to align herself with what she calls the Sagittarius way of life. She says she keeps learning from the animals and from her mentors.

She describes herself as an animal communicator, meditation teacher, Reiki master and intuitive coach. Her sessions help people with behavioural problems, health concerns, traumatised animals, and connecting with an animal that has passed. She also guides people to meet their animal spirit guide. She describes her approach as reaching past an animal's physical well-being into the mindset of both the owner and the animal. Her toolkit combines accredited aromatherapy, equestrian massage, Pilates and professional intuitive coaching.

Her work also includes a six-month journaling programme and guided meditations. The meditations draw on animal spirits such as Horse, Fox, Butterfly and Coyote. She also writes about animals, nature and seasonal change.

At the heart of her work is a belief that people and their animals can live well together when they form a connection of understanding. She also believes that closeness between humans, nature and the environment makes for a better world. Clients describe her as sensitive, calm and sincere. One horse owner said she treated their pony with massage therapy for over a year.
