Hello there, my sweet little wanderer! I see you want to learn. That's great! I am here to teach you and to show you a wonder of nature. Some of you it might confuse, some other ones might see themselves in those. But whatever it is, you are free to listen, to ask questions and to give feedback. Just make yourself at home, my love.
What does Therianthropy mean? 🐚 Therianthropy means identifying as a non-human creature in a non-physical way. So either on a spiritual or psychological level. You might believe in past lives, reincarnation, misplaced souls and all that, then you are a spiritual therianthrope. Or you might believe in scientific reasons (neurological, psychological etc.), then you are a psychological therianthrope.
What do you mean with "theriotype"? 🐚 When we ask about your theriotype, we ask about what you identify as or what you are. Kinda like "the species".
What's the "awakening"? 🐚 The awakening some therians are talking about means the moment when you realize you are not completely human. It's not an obligation to have it to be a fully accepted therianthrope. Many didn't have an awakening but always knew about themselves as kinda non-human.
Shifting physically? What??! 🐚 We don't shift physically. That's a lie. A sweet, sweet lie. But some of us experience shifts on an astral level or even mentally, for example. Known shifting types are Phantom shifts, Mental shifts, Sensory shifts, Dream shifts, Cameo shifts, Bilocation shifts and Astral shifts.

http://therian.wikia.com/wiki/Astral_Shift What kind of therianthropes do exist? 🐚 Contherianthropes (short: contherians) are non-shifters. They always are in the state of both, theriotype and human.
🐚 Suntherianthropes/Vacillant therianthropes/Syntherianthropes (short: suntherians/vacillan therian/syntherian) are those whose therioside into his baseline personality. Most ones also experience fluctuations in their moods after all, so that they might feel more human or animal the one day than the other. That also means that they don't shift mentally.
🐚 Cladotherianthropes (short: cladotherians) identify as a whole clade of animal, like canine, feline, bovine, cetacean and so on. But they don't identify as one specific species.
🐚 Polytherians just identify as more than one animal while standard therians identify as one animal.
🐚 Non-shifting therians (oh see) are those who don't shift.
