I see a few familiar faces about Smiley For those of you who don't know me, I'll paste the usual intro.

I'm a graduate of Gettysburg College with a degree in biology and environmental studies and until recently was working as an aquarist in an amphibian exhibit (damn temporary jobs).

A good rule of thumb with me is to not assume tone, emotion, intention, or attitude with anything I type. I type from a neutral standpoint. I say what I mean and I mean what I say (hopefully tactfully). So any tone, emotion, etc. you get is your own assumption.

I was raised Catholic, but it never really fit for me. I began poking around Wicca at the age of 12 and eventually just kind of made my own "path" so to speak. I just call myself an eclectic pagan. It's like one of those Choose Your Own Adventure! books only with spirituality Wink

My entire life I felt like "human" wasn't quite right as a descriptor for myself. This body was too solid and just wrong. It almost felt like there was something intrinsically "wrong" with referring to myself solely as human. Around my senior year of highschool I began having what I believe to be past life memories surface. Two past life regressions and some outside confirmation later I'm pretty comfortable accepting them as just that. It's at the time these memories surfaced that I really began to explore just why "human" didn't feel 100% "right" for me.

After taking a lot of time soul searching, meditating, and that sort of thing the only conclusion I'm entirely comfortable with at the moment is that I'm otherkin...specifically an incarnate angel (the energetic variety) of the polymorphic persuasion. My "true form" so to speak has two base forms of winged humanoid (much like my avatar thinger) and gargoyle (like a cross between a dragon and a lioness), but due to its energetic nature can take on the guise of anything and appear physical, though not be truly physical.

Just so we're all on the same page, angels are messengers of some source of divinity. They aren't exclusively JudeoChristianIslamic and I don't identify as an angel from that paradigm.

I experience phantom wing sensations constantly and can basically cameo shift my way into just about anything...though I haven't tried inanimate objects...yet.

I don't consider myself to be anything but a human who believes she's an incarnate angel in this life. My body is human, I've been raised human, so I'm for all intents and purposes human. Just what's on the inside is not. My beliefs don't make me better than anyone else, just potentially nuts.

I'm also a moderator at a few otherkin sites, so if anyone would like a recommendation or has any questions on the topic, feel free to PM.

LOL I was an administrator at USS and I'm an "inactive" member of Mystic Wicks. I haven't been active much of anyplace else besides those two places and, of course, here.
