Had an amazing time at this therian meditation I was a part of. It helped clarify a lot about my magic kin self. I see myself as the black cat with magic just flowing through me, or the magic manifests as an amulet. The magic elements came into play when the meditator mentioned it directly.
Side note: I'm not sure but I might be cladokin with my magic kintype since the magic isn't just one manifestation view of it but has elements of all sorts of magical creatures and visual expressions of it.
Also, my mom participated, and she found herself goung through three of her four theriotypes: cluster of mushrooms to ladybug to frog as the meditation got more and more active.
Disclaimer: I'm no therian/otherkin expert. I think I know this correctly though that meditations are not always reliable for this, but they can help to clarify some things about your theriotypes/kintypes you're pretty sure/confident about but still questioning along side other exploration avenues. Meditations also useful to feel in touch with yourself and have shifts of known therio-/kintypes.
