Universe

According to Ralph Waldo Emerson, down in the mud and the scum of things there alway alway something sings, and there I relish the symphonies of cicadas and peeper frogs, marvel at the underground cathedrals built by ants, and gaze upon the jeweled carapaces of beetles.

I\'m an adult male with an powerful imagination. There\'s an imaginary figure who has been very important to me since I was very young (probably since age 4 or 5 or maybe even younger). It\'s never been an imaginary friend, so much as how I see myself, and how I envision the better part of me. It\'s a damselfly-winged bullfrog. It\'s a fairy prince, according to itself. It has no kingly ancestors, and there is no reason why anyone else would view it as a prince. It gave itself the title of \"prince\" because it liked the sound of it. The bullfrog fairy \"prince\" is a very small animal, but it belches its authority through the swamp, loudly and proudly. It belches forth its ignorance. It challenges authority, to be taught by authority. It\'s both humble and arrogant. The bullfrog fairy prince is the enemy of winged serpents, who come down from the moon to eat fairy kind. It once fought a winged serpent, and defeated it alone. The serpent had a body as thick as a tree trunk and fangs as long as men\'s arms. It swallowed the bullfrog whole though, so the bullfrog puffed up like a balloon in the middle of its throat and choked the winged serpent to death. I\'m an atheist. That\'s all just imaginary, but the above is on some level how I think of myself, my god, and my advisor, and its a completely fictional being, except in my mind. I see no reason to believe the damselfy-winged bullfrog fairy prince is real, but nonetheless if I said I didn\'t believe it existed I\'m not sure I\'d pass a lie detector test.

Trying something out, to see how folks like it: Otherkin.net now has its own public Discord server, allowing both text and voice chatting. https://discord.gg/3BgKzHq

Putting some thought into updates for the site. I\'m going to be fiddling with the events module a bit, trying to make it easier for people to use RSS feeds to subscribe to event updates. The functionality is already there, but I realized the other day that there don\'t appear to be obvious links anywhere. I\'m also considering adding a message board to the site. As things stand right now, each group on the site has its own message board, but I haven\'t activated a global message board. Would that be useful, do you think, or would it be redundant with groups and their associated boards?

Hello everyone, my name is Astrophora. You can call me Astro. I\'m a mermaid from the Pacific Ocean and while I\'m not sure if I\'m in exactly the right place since I haven\'t found many merfolk here, I do feel like I can be taken seriously here. Ever since I first laid eyes on the ocean I\'ve had a profound connection to it, and I suppose even from back then even when I was learning to adjust to my new human body I\'ve known deep down that I was a mermaid, but it slept in my subconscious. I didn\'t want to admit it because the idea was not only extremely mysterious but scary to me. In some aspects it still is, but I\'ve learned to embrace this part of myself. I\'m also a medium and have had many past life regressions of my time undersea.

Any other Demon kin out there?

Hello I\'m Dante, I am female but I don\'t really attach myself to names much, I dont really care what name a person calls me to get my attention and I like having mulitple names. I may have been born awaken but things happened to.. like put me to sleep again, I only started again 4 years ago I believe, but Im still not completely there nor at the level I was as a child. I have a vague idea how and why but Im still looking around and still cant at least be where I used to be.

well, that was something. I was just sitting down when BOOM! Every sence was hightened, i could feel, smell hear and see better than ever before! I felt like i had wings too and tye ammount lf energy .... This has never happened before, im so tired, but that was incredible

So today started out fairly normal. But at 11:30 I felt an odd feeling in my head, i felt like someone was tring to talk to my. By 11:35 The voice was audible, he said he was called Kothoran, and that he was here to guid and help me. We where able to communicate and talk with eachother. We asked eachother questions and had a genral descition, hed said durning this that id have to find things out myself. I asked if i would get to see him and he said once he feels im ready. Apparently his using a dragon statue i was given to talk with me, which made sence as all this started apon receving it. Im not enterly sure what to do but im happy knowing Kothoran is there with me

I am always busy ^-^

this site looks like it could be an amazing tool yet I aint seen one person, what happened???

So my latest "vision". I saw a huge sea-blue scaled dragon upon some sort of ledge, just like me she had white hair but hers ran down her spine and tail, she looked at me, smiling. She them seemed to talk to me but I couldnt hear her. She let out a short burst of flame and the vision faded to black. It all repeated once more before toing for good. I seem to recal and feel a sence of her being my mother

hey all, im new here and just wanted to say hi :)

So i just experienced something amazing, ill explain what i saw. A turquoise body that smoothly transitions to a pearl blue with spine feathers that match. A white moheaken like hair, a long snout and from the side a narrow yet long face. Large wings but i couldnt get the details of his wings or tail

Im not completely sure what I am. Can anyone help me? I feel like both a wolf and a cat but I dont know if I have to choose one or the other. Im new here any help would be awesome. Thank you

Hello to all. *waves*

Hi we're 3 young people from Denmark and we're making a project about subcultures, and we found otherkins very interesting. So we wanted to ask if there where anyone who wanted to answer some questions about how being an otherkin changed you life.

Lately I\'ve been struggling with the feeling of not feeling connected to this world, and just wishing to go back as a dragon and live life in another plane. I\'ve had these possible past life memories coming up recently, and it intensifies the feeling, which would make sense, I suppose. In these memories I am a colour of deep blue, scaled, as I see myself, and although I don\'t exactly see what I look like, it kind of... Feels right, I suppose? At least, that is how I choose to see myself.

Hello, so what is everyone up to?
