Actually there are people who in a past life were not human but some form of spirit. An early mentor of mine once told me that some retarded and aultiustic children were not human in the past life but some form of spirit in the spirit realm. On first inspection it seems there can be nothing to validate such a claim. However he taught a healing technique which I have found very effective in stimulating the minds of retarded children.

Also I have heard much about Earth Bound Angels. Albeit not on this forum as of yet. Earth Bound Angels are humans that are part divine. These people although not creating bad karma seem to suffer much more than the rest of us. The suffering of the Earth Bound Angels is said to help pay some kind of debt for mankind as a whole. These people are said to have special powers such as healing.

Proving that a person is a reincarnated other world spirit is of course impossible. However it is probable this could actually happen and often has.

That actually makes a great deal of sense... It seems to me that when we are outside of our temporal context, that is, 'in between' lives, the chunks of experience which do not take place incarnate as a human being on earth, could create psychological preferences towards the incarnations in which we managed to save a bit of identity after death. If some of those incarnations were as spirits, or entities other than human, then naturally when the soul is incarnate and recovers pieces of these lives, it creates a division between the context of the current incarnation and one's 'true' self.

I'm a shifter, myself - often categorized alongside otherkin, often referred to as 'Were' or Therian - 'phenotype' panther, and used to strongly identify with my animalistic side.

However, I found that allowing that portion of my consciousness to define who I was took away from the human experience of this incarnation. From my past experience speaking with other shifters (none of whom, I should mention, were people I actually met in person, save for two) a lot of individuals of this temperment call this period 'Integration'.

For myself, it became unhealthy to see myself as 'above' or 'beyond' this world, and to identify my own soul as 'outside' the realm of human experience. I found that it lead me towards a sense of superiority and hubris amongst my peers, and ultimately alienated me. Once I began to understand more of what it meant for me, what strengths and weaknesses is gave me, I accepted myself as fully human in the sense that I am as human as anyone else, and subject to the same regulations therein - I was simply aware of a broad spectrum of the experience already a part of my consciousness, and part of that awareness connected me to the animalistic energy included in my being.

I'm curious - in what fashion does your being Otherkin affect your consciousness that you are aware of? I am curious because speaking with other shifters helped me narrow down what was the 'classical' human awareness within my own scope of awareness, and which parts were the manifestations of my animal consciousness. I found that it became the best way to exemplify what I meant by 'shifter' when the subject arose.

peace

Interesting association of "shifter". I have always found the ability to shift can be a learned skill. In fact, it is told that many Druid Priests could shift. The ability to shape shift would not necessarily make one Otherkin. Although, if you are a Changeling, shifting (through use of Glamour) would come naturally. The term Otherkin has been tossed around a lot in the last 10 years. I have usually heard it used to describe those who considered themselves Elves, Fae, Dwarves, Dragons, etc reincarnated into human form. While I do not discount this theory, I theorize that the soul has not true form, but is only shaped by the will of it's conciousness, and that it is possible that one could have held and existance as an "otherkin" but they're soul does not differ from one that is incarneted as human (save specific knowledges gained through otherkin existance).

My source is a book written in Turkish. It is a really good book if you know how to read Turkish. My wife is Turkish so she does the translating. It is loaned out to a friend right now but if you want I can get the title and possibly there is an English translation of it. I had never heard about Earth Angels before but many things in the book make perfect sense so I am willing to believe that some peoples souls might be a little more divine than others.

As to the mental retardation and Atuism of people who previously lived in a spirit realm. I learned that from oral tradition. A Shaman who greatly influenced me at a young age. I am sure his source was Papago / Pima Native American oral tradition.
