Is there some sort of checklist to go by to know exactly what phenotype you are awakening to?
How do you know if you are an awakening Vamp, Therian, Dragon, Elf, Fae, etc.? Are there certain qualities that you just instinctly know?
I'm clueless
*hugs* Acacia

acacia hon ,this is a very good question and im not honestly sure theres an absolute answer for it but i say if you feel a certain connection with certain entities or behaviors then thats one way of determining your other phenotypes ,hence a dragon has a definate connection with fire if they are a fire dragon and so someone who is awakening to another phenotype or their first phenotype will be geared more naturally and instinctively towards dragons ,example ,for the longest time because ive got such a desire for blood i naturally felt connection with the vampires .,but through out the years i came to notice another phenotype exsisted and i knew what it was because ive always been connected and into them and it was the fae ,my natures very playful at times can be mischeivous ,although not in a malicious way but i adore nature ,the moon,..animals and im quite a bit of a buzz always on the go fluttering about like a fairy when it flies my energy is beyond exhuberant i can keep up with most kids hehe ill always have a youth and i dont age alot when i do get older ,yes the penchant for blood is there and always will be but ive found many other ways to feed to satiate my need or desire for blood hope this helps see what around you ,you feel most connected to or have always been into or intrigued by that you cant shake and it might help you determine your awakening phenotype i already told you my opinion in EM as to what i believe your other phenotype/s are .remember the saying takes one to know one hehe

<<< I dont think there could be a checklist or anything everyone goes through it in a diffrent manner>>>
Perhaps a checklist is the wrong word to use. I think what people who are awakening want is more to know what others have gone through so that they can find that one stable similarity to start feeling as though what they are experiencing is a normal function.
I understand that Kin are concerned that people will say that they feel this , this , this and that and BAM they are a vampire or therian. And I don't believe that is what what the majority would do.
We are always going to have wanna be's and lifestylers as well as those who just want to fit in. But if we alienate those who are legitimately going through an awakening because we don't want to give the wannabe's and lifestylers anymore of a leg up then we are cutting our own throats.
Just my point of view.

With the utmost due respect, may i make a suggestion: do not limit your Awakening to a few ideas or specimen. All living beings, beit Dragon kin, Faerie, Human, Spectral Haunts... we all have one thing in common - divine Energy. We are all made of the same astral energy which creates this planet, our solar system, and all life in this Universe. Be open to your instincts, listen to your heart with your mind fully open, do not limit yourself or box yourself in... be who you ARE, not who you THINK you should be. I am a Starseed, but I am absolutely positive I have roots among the Faerie's. Perhaps in another life, in another dimension, or another reality I lived among the lilies reed and stalks... in this life I am human. I have taken on the form of a Human female to learn my lessons and spread my Light. But I am open to all possibilities, and at night when my eyes are closed and my breath is deep, i fly with Dragon, I roam with Elf, and I most certainly thirst with Vampyre Why? Because we are timeless light energy, and we've done it all before. Hope my opinions are not out of place here *smiles* Namaste ~ Destra

Might you explain a bit about what Gnosticism actually is? I'm curious now.

Well, Im just starting to learn about it myslef, however, form what I understand , it is all about the awakening of the inner spirit and assencesion through knowledge. It is supposed to be the Origional teachings or Jesus Christ, before the Roman Catholic church messed around with it.. as I said, im still learning

To my knowledge, the truths of the Christed one are held cherished by most members of the Family of Light, you may want to do online searches for Starseeds, Christed One, or other type things.
Hope this helps, I have never heard of the term Gonisticism, but I am definately intrigued *smiles*
Blessed Be, Destra

Well...first, I would say that only psychics and vampires "awaken"...that is, they go from a state where their abilities and traits are latent, to one in which they are active.
For other kin-types, awakening really refers more to a realization, and not dormant traits coming to life. It's a recognition of what you are--what all these things you've had all your life actually mean--and not suddenly gaining something you didn't have before, or had no idea was there.
You don't suddenly develop mythic-kin or therian traits...you just realize what those traits mean. A good number of therians don't go through anything like an awakening, because they were always aware of what they were from early childhood...instead, they just stumble across the community and say "what...you mean there are OTHERS?" <g>

I have to disagree with you on this. I always felt that I was different, I never knew what it was. I have only JUST discovered that I am Therian or better yet, Dragon Kin. I never knew what type of kin I was. I had always just refered to my being otherkin. Then I had my "awakening" and realized where exactly I belonged.

Yes, but did you actually gain anything you didn't have before, other than knowledge?
That's what I'm saying...it's not really an awakening, it's a realization.
And many therians, and even some other 'kin, do know what they are from early childhood, long before they ever encounter the communities--I did.

realization and awakening would mean the same thing I would think. Just semanics if you ask me ;D

Not really, because it means that people are using the same word to refer to two essentially different experiences. The "awakening" of therians and mythic-kin isn't the same as the "awakening" of psis and vampires.
This doesn't usually matter, but it could be confusing for a newbie to mix the two up, and to expect something that doesn't really apply to them.
