Do you have any info on kinshifts/what they feel like?

What are kinshifts?

You can think of kinshifts like different settings on a machine. The ‘machine’ is the totality of your ‘self’; your internal experience and ways in which you express it outwardly; different kin shifts are like ‘settings’ that temporarily alter these expressions and experiences.

Just like your television doesn’t become a different machine when you change the color or volume settings on it, you don’t become a different person because of a kinshift, it’s just the operation of the same machine–the same self– that has been altered in some way.

A shift is a temporary augmentation or alteration of your base experience and expression.

There are different kinds of shifts, and each of these types of shifts is like a different setting on ‘you’ that can be affected by these shifts.

Mental Shift: I shift affecting your mind and conscious thoughts and unconscious thought patterns.

Phantom Shift: A shift affecting your perceived body-map and the way you experience sensory data through non-physical limbs and body parts.

Astral Shift: A shift affecting your presence on the astral plane.

Aura Shift: A shift affecting your aura and the way you and others perceive it.

Dream Shift: a shift affecting your perception of your self while dreaming.

Sensory Shift: a shift that affects how you perceive and process sensory data ; touch, smell, hearing, sight etc.

Spiritual Shift: a shift that affects your spiritual body; similar to and may include astral or aura shift.

Cameo Shift: Any of the above shifts, but not mapping to any known kintype the shifter has uncovered

Mixed shift: Any of the above shifts, but including elements of more than one kintype at the same time.

Overlapping shifts: experiencing multiple types of shifts to the same kintype at the same time, such as mental, sensory and astral.

Let’s imagine a person who has two kintypes (we’re keeping it simple). We’ll imagine those kintypes are cat, and vampire. (Again, simple, basic, everyone should have an idea of what to expect about a cat or a vampire).

If a person experiences a mental shift to their cat kintype (a cat shift), they would experience conscious and unconscious thoughts that are more like their cat kintype than their thoughts are outside of that shift. They might feel more easily distractible, have thoughts about chasing and eating mice, be more fastidious about grooming than usual, or feel alternately aloof or cuddly.

In a phantom cat shift a person might have the sensations of a tail, or of retractable claws.

A sensory cat shift would mean that the person would pay more attention to their hearing, or smell, and experience those senses as if they were heightened or more sensitive than when not in that shift.

Astral, aura, and spiritual cat shifts would make you appear as a cat to people perceiving you in these ways.

A mixed shift would be if for instance the person was having both a sensory vampire shift, and a phantom cat shift; experiencing for example a heightened smell of and desire for blood, while at the same time experiencing having a tail.

A cameo shift is if the cat/vampire person has an unexplained one-off shift where they feel like they’re a dog.

Overlapping shifts are very common; many kin typically experience more than one 'type' of shift to their kintype at once.

Kinshifts can be voluntary and intentional, or, more often, are involuntary and happen either randomly or in response to external and internal stimuli.

Y'all I think I might change up my blog's look cause jaksdfhaskj holy shit. I just had a short but very INTENSE shift.

I know for sure now I had MULTIPLE lives as a dragon, but I have a feeling both were connected somehow. I know now that at some point, I was a very large and powerful dragon that ruled over thunder and wind and storms. I followed storms as they moved and lived in masses of clouds.

I love this new realization but also Fuck the species dysphoria I'm getting from this is borderline painful I fucking hate having a human body lol

quick tip for my fellow therians/otherkin: GROW YOUR NATURAL NAILS OUT!!!!!!!!! get yourself some cuticle oil and a nail care kit and start growing them out and filing them into a shape that feels nice to you. i PROMISE it feels way better than getting extensions and the joy of growing your own claws is immense

#seriously i started growing them out and painting them and filing them into a nice shape and BOY has it helped my self esteem #you wont regret it i promise its so cool #tippy tapping on my screen is the coolest thing ever #otherkin #therian #theriantrope #theriantropy #canine therian #feline therian #bird therian #birdkin #wolfkin #coyotekin #kin shift #therian community #catkin #tigerkin #lionkin #dogkin

you can use music to induce shifts. yes. seriously. i used to have REALLY STRONG reactions to nine inch nails when i was in high school, to the point that i was a little afraid of myself and thought i was going to end up in either a hospital or in prison. it was that intense. i felt like a monster - and it was the best feeling i'd ever felt.
