About Madra Rua

A little bit about me and my Animal Communication journey...

My name is Audrey and I am an Animal Communicator, Intuitive, and Energy Healer. I live in Westmeath, Ireland. Since a young age, I have felt a strong connection and love for all animals. When Jessie (pictured left) found us in 2002, we shared such a deep bond and were so in tune with each other that I wanted to find out more. I started researching about human and animal connections and this led me to learn about Animal Communication. I was a bit sceptical at first but the more I learnt and practiced, the more amazed and fascinated I became at the level of information that could be received by simply tuning in.
I have now communicated with over a hundred animals over the years, living and in spirit. I do have a soft spot for connecting with animals in spirit for their positive messages of unconditional love, and the joy and comfort they provide to their humans who are missing them deeply. It is such an honour and privilege to communicate with each individual animal and I learn so much from them every time. They are truly teachers.

Why Madra Rua?...

Madra Rua means "red dog" or "fox" in Irish. Jessie passed away in 2012 and she has remained a constant loving, encouraging and comforting presence by my side ever since. Madra Rua is my tribute to her (and I love foxes too!).
I also dedicate Madra Rua to Jake (pictured right), our second dog who passed away in 2019. Thanks to Animal Communication, Jake connected with me right after his passing and has now joined Jessie as my spiritual animal guide and advisor. I feel very blessed to have had both of them as part of my life and I wouldn't be where I am and who I am without them.
Today, I continue to share a deep connection with our 2 dogs, Aimee and Archie, who follow in Jessie's and Jake's paw prints as my animal teachers.

My journey as a healer so far

My Energy Healing journey started in 2009 when I was attuned to Traditional Usui Reiki Level One. I received the Master/Teacher level attunement in 2020. I became a member of the Reiki Healing Association in 2016.

Over the years, I have expanded my knowledge and spiritual practice to other Energy Healing modalities:
Animal Reiki (Master/Teacher Level)
Kundalini Reiki (Master/Teacher Level)
Celtic Reiki (Master/Teacher Level)
Spiritual Animal Healer Programme (Master/Teacher Level)
Intuition Reiki (Master/Teacher Level)
Ma'heo'o Reiki (Master/Teacher Level)
One Spirit (Master/Teacher Level)
When sending distance healing, I primarily use Traditional Usui Reiki healing. I also use a combination of the other healing modalities mentioned above if I feel guided to do so at the time of the session.

I qualified as an Animal Assisted Therapy Facilitator in 2017 and as of September 2021, I am studying to become a Trust Technique® Practitioner (Mindfulness for People with their Animals). You can find out more about the Trust Technique® here (affiliated link). I will be offering Trust Technique® consultations in the future upon my qualification, helping more people and animals heal and grow together.

I continue to learn every day and have been a student of Kyle Gray's Angel Team and Certified Angel Guide programmes for the past 5 years. I certified as an Angel Card Mastery practitioner in 2019 and am working towards getting more advanced certifications before offering card readings professionally.
