All surgery is an invasive procedure to the body. What has been known for centuries is scars can block energy, and actually drain energy in the body. They also hold memory of the surgery, and/or direct trauma of the event, which may or may not have required surgery. Such as a dog bite, where the wound healed by itself yet a scar remained. Scars do not have to be large to block the flow, even the smallest of scars can have a major impact on the energetic pathways of the body, and life-force of the being as we are a collection of pathways, and meridians.
From my perspective, the majority of humanity are not looking at the body as a living breathing entity with every single cell knowing, and feeling. When there is a surgery, the chatter, disposition, feelings of all those around this being will be imprinted not only the body but in the being. This needs to be cleared. I think before anyone is operated on, the space should be blessed, cleared, cleaned, and all the people be in a mediative grateful space with the time taken to explain to the body what is going to happen, and asking permission.
Of course, in most cases with neutering and spaying, the being would never give permission as this is violation of life which we humans feel we have the right to interfere with, under the guise of population control. Therefore, within this scar will be the innate intelligence of the violation of the bodily systems, and all its connections which need to be repaired. And this will be recorded in the body, the mind, and the spirit of the being for its lifetime unless we consciously help these aspects of the being heal the trauma. Often this must come with an apology to the being for our lack of critical thinking, our lack of truly understanding fully the implications of our decisions, as a result of our lack of connection to the divine due to societies relentless programing.
Of course, in traumatic cases where life and death are at stake, the ceremony of this is placed aside however, the communication and intention can still be present. As those who work in the field, being in a certain state of mind, body and spirit will not only benefit their own being, but without a doubt on those they are working on.
If any scars or surgery have taken place with regards to your animal, these scars need to be addressed as a life force in the body yet reconciled, and intentionally, and completely healed with love and compassion, and potentially forgiveness.
