something i noticed

hey, i'm really sorry if this offends anyone, but i've been seeing a lot of similar patterns lately.

so, the kin community had a really huge boost of members in about 2014 or 2015. it was mostly people who believed in reincarnation or such, or people who were just getting into it (both just getting on the bandwagon and learning something new about themselves). today, the kin community has died down quite a bit. and i know there are lots of you out there who are just as passionate as me, or maybe you're just a casual therian / firm believer in reincarnation.

but what i've noticed is that there's been a huge decrease of people who actually believe in reincarnation and the such and actually 'care' about kin. most people are treating it as just a silly game or something, i've seen tons of people refer to it as roleplaying.and, i know everyone has their own perspective and definition of what kin really is, but... i'm pretty sure that's not what any of this is? wouldn't that be a synpath or otherhearted? relating with a character because you identify with them a lot or roleplaying as a character you relate with or project onto isn't what kin is at all, and i'm seeing tons of people getting all the definitions mixed together and it's almost kind of alarming. from my understanding, it's about identifying AS, not with characters, and in the case of therians (and even fictional characters!), learning about your past lives and connecting with them. this isn't a lifestyle -- it's not something you necessarily need to devote your time and identity to, but it also isn't some silly hobby or game. i'm not saying you have to take it seriously to be considered 'valid', but please do some research before you call yourself otherkin, fictionkin, or a therian!

again, i'm really sorry if i offended anyone. reincarnation is a huge thing in my family's culture, and i've been a firm believer of it since i was young, it's just a really big part of my identity and it kind of disheartens me to see that the most of the community nowadays is people who aren't even sure if they're kin or not. :(

thank you so much for reading! feel free to reply, i actually encourage you to argue since i've never really had a chance to speak my opinion on this and would like to see this situation from different perspectives

Just Try It

Guys. I swear to you, you need to do a mental shift. I just finished doing one deliberately which I haven’t had the time to do recently. And i finally thought that right now could be a good time. I don’t know how long I was shifted from, but it felt amazing. I mean…it kind of hurt my hands. And I ended up freaking out and crawling down the stairs head first on my hands and knees. But that’s besides the point-

Just take an hour out of your day to shift. Whether it’s in your room, or outside just try it. It doesn’t have to be every day, or maybe once every week. Just try it. It made me feel…so much better. Afterwards I felt like a whole weight had been lifted. I was about to fall asleep while shifted, but it died down and went away before I could. And honestly…I almost cried. I already missed the feeling. And i still do. And it just feels amazing.

I would try again but I know I won’t be able to just lay still and fall asleep, and I dont want to crawl around on my poor beaten up hands. And my arms are super tired. But just…try it, okay? If you are feeling dysphroic, then try it. If you feel out of place or out of touch, then try it. If you’ve never even had a shift, just try it. Try inducing one with meditation or hypnosis (I used a hypnosis video). Because it’s one of the best feelings…..whether you are still uncomfortable in your body, doesn’t change the fact that in your mind you feel perfect. In your mind, you feel warm and safe and you feel like yourself. And in that state, your mind doesn’t even care about what your body looks like. Because its what you are feeling inside.

So just try it. You never know; it might make you a little happier today.

Imagine curling up in your den.

Your pelt is soft, your fur groomed and clean. Morning light is just barely starting to peak between the trees. You are surrounded by the smell of crisp leaves and tree sap.

Outside, there is a chill in the air.

But in here, the hands of the Earth keep you safe and warm.
