"I wish for you to love the Animal Kingdom as you love your own lives." this is the call that Christ Jesus sent on November 20, 2015, to all those who postulate themselves to the New Humanity.
More recently, Saint Joseph, in His weekly Message of June 16, 2023, announced that selfless service to the Animal Kingdom must be one of the pillars of life for those who consecrate themselves to His Chaste Heart.

Science and spirituality
Human science has already proven that animals have sentience, that is, the ability to feel just like human beings. Thanks to this recognition, some progress is being made, albeit very slowly, with regard to animal rights.
However, the Divine Messengers emphasize that there is a hurry; the gravity of the planetary situation - both material and spiritual - requires an immediate change in our relationship with Creation and, in particular, with these little brethren.
Therefore, over the years, Christ Jesus, the Virgin Mary and The Most Chaste Saint Joseph have emphasized the inalienable mission of humanity to the Animal Kingdom and revealed the spiritual importance of animals on the planet.

The Animal Kingdom and the Original Project of God
The Divine Messengers tell us that when God created the Material Universe, He determined that each of His Aspects would constitute a Kingdom of Nature, which should provide something vital for the existence of the others. Therefore, all of Creation would live in fraternity and unity.
In this way, the Creator Father endowed the essence of each species of the Animal Kingdom with a unique attribute, as an irreplaceable piece in the great mosaic of Creation.
Saint Joseph affirmed, in His Message of November 27, 2015, that this Kingdom “is the expression of fidelity and love, it is the guardian of the spirit of cooperation and evolutive fraternity in each species, as it was supposed to be."
The purpose of God was that each animal species, after fully manifesting its potential, would continue its evolutionary path in the Universe, entering new spiritual schools under the impulse of love experienced on Earth.
The mission of the Human Kingdom towards animals
It would be up to the Human Kingdom, through love, care and example, to create the conditions so that the Animal Kingdom could express the attributes that God placed in its essence. Saint Joseph talks about this task of humanity:
The Human Kingdom should be the bridge to the Divine Consciousness, bringing the spirit of constant evolution and growth so that Creation would never become stagnant and the Kingdoms would continue to take evolutive steps and gradually change their spiritual school. In this way, new essences would gradually arise and permanently renew the Creation of God and, from the laboratory of the Earth, the whole Universe would be able to be renewed.
Saint Joseph, November 27, 2015
However, The Chaste Heart states, in this same Message, that the Human Kingdom was the only one of the Kingdoms that did not fulfill its mission in the earthly project, distorting its relationship with the other Kingdoms of Nature.
What do we have to learn from the Animal Kingdom?
The Divine Messengers say that in the school of love and evolutionary cooperation on Earth, the Human Kingdom has much to learn from the Animal Kingdom.
Saint Joseph, again, give us some indications:
Contemplate the Animal Kingdom and learn from its love for life; learn to defend the Laws of God, to take care of your neighbor and to be always faithful to the One you fully love. Learn from the plenitude of the Animal Kingdom and, with the same naturalness of heart, be a guardian of Life and of the Perfection of God.
Here, the Chaste Heart emphasizes again that living with animals helps us learn to love:
If you feel that you do not know how to love or that you cannot love, try to take care of the Kingdoms of Nature, especially the Animal Kingdom, which pours out its love upon human beings even when it is so violated by them.
Saint Joseph, November 15, 2015
If you want to learn how to live love, let yourselves be loved by the Animal Kingdom, and with them, learn how to express the love that exists within you, without fear or shame.
Saint Joseph, November 13, 2018
Hidden spiritual lessons in animal behavior
The Virgin Mary gives us examples of how the natural expression of animal life is much more than a simple biological disposition. In fact, the characteristics of many animals correspond to spiritual impulses deposited in the essence of each species, which emerge to elevate the vibration of the planet.
The Celestial Mother has revealed that birds, for example, embody various spiritual lessons: as they fly, they inspire us to transcend limits and seek the Heights, and when singing, they show us how to constantly praise God.
When we are able to truly connect with the Animal Kingdom, we will be able to establish a deeper communication with the consciousness of each species. Thus, we can see by ourselves the latent spiritual expression in every animal that comes our way.
But this is a spiritual exercise that the Divine Messengers call upon us to perform now: to be attentive to the signs of nature and to recognize the manifestation of God in all Life.
Animals, guardians of sacred sites
The Sacred Hearts revealed that some animal species play the role of guardians of the spiritual vortices of the planet, as the original peoples well knew.
When Christ Jesus was in the Grand Canyon in the United States, He addressed the consciousness of the indigenous brotherhood of North America, recalling the guardian animals that protect many of the sacred sites for these peoples:
The great coyote of the south, as well as the eagle, send their spirit of love, just as the bear of the forests of the west and the White Buffalo of the north of America unite to protect and safeguard the sacred roots of a legacy that was dismissed with the arrival of the white man. But this legacy is held latent in the Inner Chambers of the planet.
Christ Jesus, February 13, 2020
Our Lady has revealed that dolphins, whales and turtles are guardians of the Intraoceanic Enclosures*, relaying the divine impulses captured in these spaces to the entire globe.
The counterpart of these Intra-oceanic places is made manifest through the whales and the dolphins, sea species that have the physical and mental ability of retransmitting very potent impulses of peace and harmony, which are emitted by the Intra-oceanic Precincts, and through these species, these impulses of light travel miles until they can reach the other side of the world.
The Virgin Mary, November 13, 2018
Still regarding whales and dolphins, Our Lady announced in Her Message of February 10, 2018, that they bring an essence of spiritual love unknown to humanity, thanks to which the Divinity manages to stop marine cataclysms, such as earthquakes and tsunamis.
About animal consumption
When Christ Jesus was upon Earth, mankind was not yet prepared to understand certain truths. Therefore, the Master had to adapt His Message to the state of consciousness at that time.
But now, after more than 2.000 years, human beings should have progressed in maturity. Thus, Our Lord, assisted by the Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph, is making new revelations, including the subject of animal consumption in His Messages.
In His Message of 9 June, 2016, Saint Joseph showed to the visionary Sister Lucía de Jesús "several images of slaughterhouses and how the souls of the animals remained tied to situations of suffering. Then, He showed me images of laboratories where animals were manipulated genetically, and animals without fur, without feathers; deformed, only created for consumption."
Then the Chaste Heart explained that these animals did not carry within them the divine essence, for they were not created by God, but by man, and that these genetic manipulations are causing the spiritual life of the planet to gradually die.
Our Instructor also said that the fact that humans kill and eat animals is taking away from humanity the ability to love.
He asked us:
If you are not able to love the Kingdoms of Nature, and if you kill and eat animals, how will you be able to cry out for peace among human beings?
How will the human hearts be able to stop killing one another while the longing for killing animals increases every day? …
How will you be instruments of God for the descent of His Peace if you are not peaceful with the Kingdoms, if you are not loving and caring with the life that is around you?
How could you want to establish the inner and psychological balance of the beings if day by day you create an imbalance in the inner worlds of the animals, that are already born feeling the anguish of suffering?
The Virgin Mary has likewise spoken on several occasions against the consumption, exploitation and ill-treatment of animals.
She asked us:
Children, how is it possible for you, in this time, to contaminate the Earth or sacrifice the animals without feeling absolutely nothing?
The Virgin Mary, October 24, 2021
And She pleaded:
Enough! ... no longer sell animals, no longer sacrifice them.
The Virgin Mary, January 13, 2022
Consequences of transgressions to the animal kingdom
The Divine Messengers have revealed that one of the greatest causes of problems in the world today - such as wars, physical illnesses and mental disorders - is the killing of animals.
By annihilating millions of animals daily, causing them indescribable suffering and interrupting their evolutionary cycle, we deeply increase our debt to Divine Justice.
In addition, this practice generates involutive energies that unbalance the terrestrial psychic plane, triggering social disorders and diseases whose healing becomes difficult to find.
In this way, we compromise the evolution of all of Creation, causing suffering that must be transmuted and released in some way.
Our Lady highlighted how much we delayed our evolution by disrespecting other living beings:
If animals could express themselves, you would understand their suffering and anguish. ... The lower Kingdoms are not there to be exploited nor constantly transgressed. This keeps the human being from evolving and awakening to the great universal knowledge. This keeps them from climbing the stairway toward the Infinite, to be able to someday find Truth and Wisdom. Therefore, the human being itself stagnates its evolution and does not conclude it.
The Virgin Mary, October 25, 2019
The Birth of Christ: a message of union with all beings
From the beginning of His Life on Earth, Christ Jesus has expressed unity with all Creation. Even the moments leading up to the birth of the Child Jesus were marked by the loving and reverent presence of the Kingdoms of Nature, as Our Lady reports:
The Virgin Mary, December 25, 2012
We arrived at the stable and God showed us how the kind and silent company of the Kingdoms prepared the arrival of the Redeemer. The hour was drawing near and Joseph helped me get down from the donkey, and he quickly gathered a little straw with his hands, and placed it somewhere within the stable so that the birth could take place.
The Virgin Mary, December 25, 2012
On another occasion, the Virgin Mary had already reminded us that the Firstborn Son of God chose to be born in a humble manger, surrounded by the Kingdoms:
Remember that My Son was born in a manger and that, from that manger in Bethlehem, together with My Son, the Kingdoms interceded once again for the salvation of the world.
Remember that the donkey that took Mary, who was carrying the Son of God in Her womb, served Her in love for the Plan of the Father.
The Virgin Mary, April 12, 2013
She also gave us this delightful passage about the presence of animals at the Birth of the Savior:
The goats, sheep and other animals of the stable offer their stillness and silence, and give warmth in the Sacred Grotto, to create a welcoming environment of peace and love.
The Virgin Mary, December 24. 2017
The Eucharist: a sacrifice of Love for all Creation
In instituting the Sacrament of the Eucharist, Our Lord left a legacy of Love and Redemption that came not only to free the Human Kingdom, but all the Kingdoms of Nature.
Saint Joseph emphasized that Christ Jesus took upon Himself the sacrifice that the peoples offered by making use of animals, offering Himself as the Bread of Life:
Our Lord raised the bread, consecrated it and shared it with His; He raised the wine, transubstantiated it, and shared it with His.
Who will have understood this mystery, in which Christ takes for Himself the sacrifice that they used to offer from animals?
This instruction is reinforced in His Apparition of May, 2016:
Christ, children, ended the sacrifice of animals by sacrificing Himself. In this way, He gave a sign to the world that you must no longer martyr the lower brothers and sisters, but rather you should be an example to them, an example of souls that offer themselves to live love, thus uplifting them in their evolution.
How can we help the Animal Kingdom?
According to the Divine Messengers, there are three main ways we can help alleviate the suffering of animals: the search for communion with this kingdom, prayer and service.
- Communion with the Animal Kingdom.
The Divine Messengers teach us that communion with animals helps to ease the pain of the whole kingdom. This is because, through the merits generated by people who seek this deep union with animals, the Divinity can free from the prisons of suffering the soul-group of many species. Moreover, this attitude sets the energy of Grace in motion, and thus situations that seemed unsolvable can reach light and redemption.
In the beautiful Act of Reverence and Love to the Kingdoms of Nature, Our Lady says:
I only hope that all of us will be in communion with the Kingdoms so that, for a moment, we may feel their constant suffering and thus we can relieve them, without transgressing Creation.
The Sacred Hearts have observed that communion with the Animal Kingdom can be more easily achieved when we become aware of what it represents in the Creation of God, and of the Divine Project of mutual collaboration between all kingdoms.
Saint Joseph said:
In order for peace to be established and for the Kingdom of God to be one with the kingdom of this world, you must discover what each Kingdom and each element brings an experience to enrich the human process of learning, because if you do not learn how to love the Kingdoms of Nature, which constantly give of themselves to human beings and in every way try to assist in your learning experience of love, you will hardly be able to truly love your neighbor as they are.
Saint Joseph, November 15, 2015
- The Prayer.
The Divine Messengers present prayer to us as one of the main tools in the face of any difficulties, and this could not be different when it comes to relieving the pain of the Animal Kingdom.
We need to be aware of the power that is concentrated on every prayer made with sincerity, using this sacred instrument that God has given us for the good of all beings.
Each prayer bead prayed for the Kingdoms is a knot that is untied in the suffering of a neighboring Kingdom, be it mineral, plant, animal or devic.
Remember that each bead that you add for the Kingdoms weekly is a great knot of suffering that is untied, alleviated and healed.
The Virgin Mary, February 12, 2018
- The service.
Christ shows us that the service to the Animal Kingdom can be done in simple ways, beginning with caring for a smaller brethren who is close to us. The Sacred Hearts reveal that, once practiced with love, these small gestures are able to balance serious mistakes made by human beings:
All those who pray must have the practice of caring for and protecting one of the Kingdoms of Nature, be it mineral, plant or animal, so that, through such loving service, the spiritual reprieve may continue to expand the Divine Grace that will manage to compensate for the grave errors that the human being commits against all ecosystems of the Earth.
But how can the service done to an animal contribute to the relief of the suffering of the others ? In this lies a mystery of Creation: the different species of the Animal Kingdom have a unique spiritual consciousness, called soul-group. Thus, when we take care of an animal – for example, a dog – we can transform this work into an offering for all the consciousness of the canine species, and thereby balance the sufferings experienced by many other dogs.
Saint Joseph says:
The different species of the Kingdoms of Nature, as well as the different elements, have a unique spiritual consciousness; if each human being treated the animal they have before them as an offering for the whole consciousness of this species, they would be able to balance the atrocities that happen in remote places of the planet.
Saint Joseph, February 18, 2016
Thus, may we strive more and more to serve the Animal Kingdom, so that, as Christ asks us, omission and indifference will no longer dwell in our hearts.
May the Animal Kingdom be rescued and healed by the hands that give of themselves to unconditionally serve it.
Animal Kingdom and the purification of the planet
The Divine Messengers have already revealed that the liberation of the animals will only be fully realized in a future stage after the planetary transition.
Saint Joseph said that the Kingdoms of Nature, including the Animal Kingdom, will also experience the purification of the Earth: in their perpetual donation, they will sustain human consciousness in the midst of chaos and create the conditions for it to experience its learning.
According to the Chaste Heart, this experience shared with the Human Kingdom will be engraved in each species:
The Kingdoms of Nature will learn with the human experience and this lesson will remain marked within the individual and group consciousness of each species. This means that when the moment comes for the individualization of consciousness for the Lower Kingdoms, which have shared the evolution of the Earth during the end of times, this individual consciousness will carry within itself the codes of surrender, giving of self, sacrifice and forgiveness, experienced in these times.
Complementing the Instruction of Saint Joseph, the Virgin Mary stressed that the apostles and followers of Christ should also, like the Master, offer to carry the spiritual cross of the Kingdoms of Nature in this planetary transition, transmuting and redeeming all the evil generated by humanity.
The 144,000 are being called upon to carry the cross of all the Kingdoms of Nature: they are being called upon to carry the cross of the Mineral Kingdom, totally outraged; the cross of the Plant Kingdom, totally devastated; the cross of the Animal Kingdom, totally mutilated; the cross of the Devic and Angelic Kingdoms, totally displaced from the aura of the Lower Kingdoms.
Who will love this cross, just as My Son has loved all of you?
The Virgin Mary, February 24,.2016
The new Christic Life of the planet
Christ Jesus had already announced that, as well as the Human Kingdom, the other Kingdoms of Nature have a Christic particle. He deepened this Teaching with an important revelation about the period that will follow the purification of the planet:
The New Christs will not just be human, the Creation that already exists will also be able to be the new Christic life on the planet, completely redeemed and healed by the hands that give of themselves to serve it, and the hearts that surrender to love it.
We can better understand the statement that the Kingdoms of Nature can also be the new Christic life on the planet by recalling what Christ Jesus said:
The steps of evolution and of the expansion of consciousness are ruled by the Law of Love. … The more you love, the more you will grow ...
Thus, it is easy to see that the Kingdoms of Nature, which sacrifice themselves for love on a permanent basis, have a splendid potential for development in the Universe.
Therefore, firm in prayer, in service and in the search for communion with the Animal Kingdom, let us prepare with faith and hope for the Return of the Master, when we will know His sublime Plans for these beloved siblings!
Finally, we leave a question asked by Our Lady, with the invitation that we examine our conscience:
By any chance, do you ever simply gaze at an animal as you pass it by?
The Virgin Mary, August 13, 2015
