If you consider yourself one then could you share your placements?

Btw, I'm not a skeptic, at least I've seen some interesting things. Like one girl who said she was a dragon born in human form would have people flow around her if they could as if subconsciously avoiding her wings. That's just one example.

Your personal story (as simple or detailed as you like), or that of someone you know, is welcome but I'm really asking about the astrology here.

I don't have time to explain it and this is about the astrology rather than meant to educate others who never heard of it. Here's a brief summary (not to be confused with a full explanation):

Before 43 Things shut down, there were goals that young people joined, like "grow wings". I'm not one of them, but that's what this reminded me of. I can't remember if it was part of a game, or something else.

Astrologically - I relate this to Pisces - everything.. Mainly Moon!

Are there "starseeds" who also identify as being "otherkin"?

WHOA-don't speak on my moon's behalf!

On a serious note, now that I know what it is, I would certainly agree with Neptunian energy and perhaps some Uranus as well? Maybe 12th house since it relates to matters of the soul and reincarnation. I'm not an Otherkin or know anyone who is, otherwise I would gladly add some more fruitful information.

Thanks for encouraging people to answer.

Yes, I'm being sarcastic. Be glad I'm not sharing all my thoughts on some of the posts above.

Steps in tentatively...

I can't say that I know I am a human in animal form.

However, for as long as I remember, I have felt I belonged in water.

That I had to adjust, grudgingly, to living on land.

There is a part of me that believes I am from a water planet.
Whether as a water-adapted human, or a sea creature, I don't know.

It is a standing joke in my intimate circle that I am a selkie.

I tried to look into this before, looking in the obvious place - Neptune in the chart, but it doesn't appear particularly prominent, except to be conjunct Galactic Center exact.

Looking forward to the development of this thread!

Doreen Virtue's board used to have visitors that identified with this, like angels. I'd forgotten about that. Earth Angels, and then she went on to talk about other types.

My DNA is conjunct Angel on GA.
I have RH negative blood which means I do not have the gene that ties humans to the Rhesus monkey, actually RH positive ppl are genetically closer to a monkey than they are RH negative ppl.
My temp is 1 degreee less than normal.
I have an extra vertebrae.
My heart rate is so low the only time it's been in normal range is when I was in full blown labor.
All of which is typical of RH negative ppl.

I had all my babies a 4-6 weeks early with no signs of being premature. The stomache muscle that is supposed to split open to give you room to grow during pregnancy doesn't on me. My body was back to normal within a month after having babies.
My blood type, B- (my mom AB- is the rarest blood type) only 1% of the population has.

RH negative blood has a built in defense system it will attack any foreign anti bodies in my blood...RH positive blood does not have this.

99% of ppl who claim to have been abductees by aliens are RH negative.
No RH negative ppl have ever been found to have to Aids, they believe possibly we do not catch virus's.
It's hard for 2 ppl with RH negative blood to carry a baby because there is not human DNA to support life when both parents are RH negative, the lungs do not developed many times...if they do have a baby usually they have many miscarriages.
They have not found where 7% of RH negative ppls DNA comes from, so far it's not like anything they have seen on Earth.
RH negative is the newest blood type, thought to have only been around the past few thousand years, most ppl with this blood type display psychic abilities.
I was born in what is called a "dry birth" there was very little water in the sac as I developed during birth. My mothers stomache was completely flat during her pregnancy with me.
They believe potentially Jesus was the first RH negative person, he would have been AB negative. Now, they do know his blood type but it has not been released publically yet...they have remains of his blood and did DNA testing. Or RH negative blood type comes from Aliens.

Aliens on the list? I believe many if not most people lived on a different planet at some point.

This is explained by some members of the otherkin community as possible through reincarnation, having a nonhuman soul, ancestry, or symbolic metaphor.

I don't think there is a thing such as human soul. It's a local form.

Perhaps mythical creatures do exist somewhere in the astral and some of them reincarnate into this dimension as humans but I wouldn't place that much importance on their spiritual form. It could be merely their preference.

I agree with you that there is no such thing as a human soul, or a dragon/alien/etc. soul. The only thing that would be "human" would be the physical vessel the soul is contained in.

I don't think star seeds identify as Otherkin. Actually, from what I've seen, I think most who identify as star seed, old soul, indigo, and the like either bought a book saying "you're so much more special/spiritual than the shallow masses" or heard they were from someone else who did. As it's about building one's self up by tearing others down (as people find plenty of ways to do on LL) while ironically saying they have less ego, and I love it when they'll say things like "it's not about being better than everyone else, it's just I've been through the lessons before and now I'm here to teach everyone (and insult them if they don't instantly acknowledge my superior wisdom)." And you generally can't tell them part from many new age types.

Don't mean that about every single one, but I do about most of them, including on LL. I'm sure that if Otherkin was about the same psychology then many at LL would've already bought the books and taken the quizzes to determine just what kind of Otherkin they were (so they'd know in what way they were more advanced than everyone else around them).

That said, one thing I was going to do was after I got some replies was to compare them to those on LL who claim to be Old Soul, Indigo, Star Seed, and the like and have shared their astrological placements. If they pretty much matched then I was going to change my mind on that. Perhaps ego (or at least access to the same material as the egotistical because telling people what they want to hear is always going to be easier to sell and thus easiest to be exposed to even when not looking for it) twists it but I'd then suspect something else was going on...the question would be if they were say raised in a devout family of practicing Russian Orthodox then would they have had a very different "awakening"? (The practices of the Russian Orthodox church I attended for awhile were vaguely shamanistic and conducive to mystical experiences--I had one while there and I'm not a believer, nor did I become one even during the experience though I did feel connected to something much larger.)

That is to say maybe some people are much more open to the world of archetypes or otherworldly forces and it can take a myriad of forms depending on their background and psychology.

I suppose I should point out that the "dragon" I mentioned never said anything about Otherkin, and I hadn't heard the term at the time. She was a runaway and as is common to dragon otherkin (that I'd learn years later) she was glowing with self-confidence and being on the streets was a vast adventure and game to her. She had a big ego as well but she didn't tear others down for it (at least not out loud) as there was no need. She had to be asked about it specifically and she shared just "matter of fact."

Many of us thought it was cool whatever we thought of it, and she was much stronger and tougher than she looked as well as having a predatory vibe that was unpleasant to have focused on you (which I later learned was common to "Otherkin dragons") so no one was willing to challenge her on it if they felt inclined. I didn't know what to think but I did notice (as did others when I pointed it out) how people would "flow around her wings" when they could...which was far more proof than I saw of others who claimed guardian angels or God was with them.

I don't know what she attributed her origin to, if she gained her effect through some "shamanic" means (as I've heard and read plenty share of channeling an animal or some such, an invocation of sorts, that could allow them to take on psychic characteristics while in the altered state that reflected in the physical world, including a guy who, while channeling Bear, managed to catch fish with his hands), or what. But when I learned of the Otherkin later, including dragons, I instantly thought of her...I wonder if she ever found others like herself because she sounded alone (not that she minded, but I've always imagined dragons as complete within themselves, shades of the ouroboros, and if dragons existed in the material world in draconic form and presumably requiring a diet fit for their form that they'd be incredibly territorial against others of their kind save in mating periods, assuming they had one).

Generally speaking, those who called themselves Otherkin did often have a weird vibe to them. 'Course that (and other traits) could be explained if the person was somehow (and unconsciously) simply channeling/invoking an Archetype. I don't know what's going on there but I'd like to understand.

If any Otherkin want to share their astrological traits with me then email me.

Why do you do that? Write blanket statements in which you are also tearing people down? I haven't done that often - most people here haven't. I have been torn down by people you would probably deem to be superior, including yourself. I've had people come into threads of mine, and claim that they wasted minutes of their life, all thanks to something I'd posted. Where are you then?

I didn't take the tests. I read the Doreen Virtue boards after Mum bought my sister a book and oracle deck, thirteen years ago. I also don't care what people think they are. I've never heard of Otherkin, but I was just trying to be helpful. I have read books on archetypes, after someone bought me a book by Caroline Myss. If that's something to be discussed, I could add my own chart.

As for the list at Wikipedia, Doreen Virtue did include people who thought they were fairies, or aliens, elves, and angels. I can't remember the others.

Pixie -
I believe in reincarnation, and I think it's very possible we've all lived lives in other dimensions and on other planets. But I don't think that only a select few - have.
I also had an issue with star seeds, when I first came across this concept, for the same reasons you mentioned. Although, I feel somewhat differently about it now.

Basically, I think - it's a fact of life that certain people are particularly shallow, superficial, narrow-minded and entirely disinterested in spiritual matters.
They simply *are*. It's not like I can pretend such people don't exist.

And pointing out that they *do* exist - does not necessarily mean that the person pointing this out is a narcissist. They might simply be observant.

Just like .. for instance.. one person may be an egomaniac and intentionally point out that they are more intelligent than the average person, that they are actually the most intelligent person who ever lived - and - that everyone seems a little bit "slow" from their perspective - because their brain processes are so quick and amazing.
They may go around saying this ^ with nothing to back-up their claims or their gigantic ego.

But if Einstein came out and said "I am aware that I have a very high IQ".

^ That is simply a statement of fact. Because he did have a much higher IQ than the average IQ.
You don't have to be an ego-maniac to be aware of - *who* you are (your positive and negative personality traits), your talents, your abilities (or lack thereof), your flaws and your virtues.

However - I do know that some people who see themselves as spiritually advanced, old souls, indigos or star seeds - come across as patronising (know-it-alls). I'm completely aware of the kind of person you are referring to.

But many others just seem to me like they are saying:

"This is who I am. This is what I most relate to and identify with - and I'm trying my best to bring something positive to the world around me."

And... there doesn't have to be ego or conceit in saying that ^.

quote:
Don't mean that about every single one, but I do about most of them, including on LL.

I don't agree on "most" or "including LL".
From my perspective - based on the forum posts and articles I've read re: star seeds (plus the things said on LL on this topic).. I would say maybe 30% are the way you described.
This is just my opinion.

I love Caroline Myss. She is an awesome writer. I have this book as well. It would be cool to discuss archetypes!
Maybe we should make a new thread.
