do you think it’s possible for a fickin to be a mixture between reincarnated, and psychological/coping? I feel most of mine were past lives and i have memories for a good few of them, but they still, at least sort of, affect me psychologically/help me cope with mental illness by giving me more of a sense of self and something to relate to, even if i didn’t choose them. do you think that’s possible?

Many, many reincarnated/spiritual kin rely on aspects of their kinself for comfort and strength. Drawing on your identity as kin to help you cope with…

two of my mutuals that i considered friends are against white people IDing outside their race (one being a poc that regularly asks others to suggest them new kintypes and the other being a white person) and it makes me excruciatingly paranoid and afraid to the point i made a separate fickin blog to talk about my kins, but i really want to figure out a way to either dissuade them from the racism notion or at least ease my anxiety, do you have any suggestions?

You could tell them that its almost certain that the concept of ‘not IDing outside your race’ was thought up by someone white pretending to be…

(part 1) The otherkin community has interested me for a long time and I admit that in the beginning I did not understand it and had some less than nice thoughts about it simply because of that, but now I’ve read up on it, especially here on your blog, and I have found that I can relate? A lot? This is all very confusing to me, but I think several experiences I haven’t understood earlier might be signs that I’m fictionkin. I have identified with a character for a long time and I thought that

(Part 2) it was only to the level everyone gets, but after reading your posts I’m starting to see that might not be it. I…

There was recently someone who clumped me in to being like other “godkin” (I use the term with caution due to some religious protest) but the biggest complain they have is that gods are higher than people, as though monism and impersonal universal forces aren’t legitimate. I’m nervous to come off anon, but what are your personal (and/or analytical) thoughts on those who identify as deities from human history and/or deities from works of fiction?

As a pagan, and a spiritual person, I have mixed feeling about people who identify as deities. Firstly, I respect anyone who sincerely believes that…

As someone who has awakened less than a year ago, I look up to you as an older member of the community. I love your informative posts and stuff about deeper things. One of my favorite posts of yours is the one about the multiverse war with Earth being like a mixing ground for souls. I love your blog and want to wish you a happy birthday!!!

Thank you so much! <3 Honestly it means a lot to hear that the things I write can be helpful to others. I really am…

What exactly should kin memories be like? Im asking because I’ve recently discovered I might be fictionkin and I’m trying to see if I get memories. Today I was focusing on trying to remember something and things automatically popped into mind. My gut feeling told me how some of the characters might’ve felt during the memory. What struck me most was the fact that someone who kins as a character from the same series remembers something that just seems “right” to me. Are these memories I’m getting?

There is nothing that kin memories ‘should’ be like. Like normal memories, they are different for everyone who experiences them. Sometimes, like you said, it just…

so uh, currently im the host to 3 different characters, but uh, whenever someone else fronts, the rest also knows whats going on? like, say, sans fronts, the rest will also know whats happening to him, we pretty openly talk to each other in our headspace. but i dont know, does that seem weird? the whole everyone knows what everyones doing?

This is totally normal for a lot of multiples, especially natural multiples who aren’t cause by trauma and may not experience dissociation. My headmates and…

is it weird to keep my kins a “private” thing? like my friends who are kin tell everyone and talk abt it openly and idk i don’t want to tell anyone?? i want to keep it to myself becuase it’s a private thing for me and idk it just makes me feel weird to tell people and i feel almost invalidated because of that bc everyone else so open abt it and im just :/

I don’t think its weird at all. In my personal opinion, being kin IS a private thing. Its not something I need to share with…
