Hello my friends,
Firstly I did not want to make this post, becouse I had seen it on mostly any therian blog, journal and YouTube channel. I thought, that this theme was effete. But then I realized,that most of them were not actually accurate to me and/or had some mistakes, for example calling being a therian only a spiritual thing. So I decided to write this post.
1. What is therianthropy?
Therianthropy is an identyfy phenomenon. Person, who is a therian, identyfies (not physically) AS an earthly animal on the integral, personal level. Therianthropy is not having a connection to the certain animal (it is called being other-hearted) or just having a spiritual guide, it's identyfing as one. For example, I like wolves, but I am not a wolf. I am a fox therian, I identyfy as a fox. The fox inside me is not a different being talking to me, it is not a being I feel connected to, it is actually me. I am a fox. Not physically, though.
2.What is a theriotype?
Your theriotype is an animal you identify as. It can be absolutely any earthly non-human being, even extinct. It is who you are (instead of being physically and genetically 100% human, do not forget about that!).
3. Views on therianthropy:
The big mistake I have seen in many definitions of therians and therianthropy. Defining it only as a spiritual thing. So let me explain.
There are two views on therianthropy:
*spiritual- therianthropy that is seen as a spiritual thing, connected with spiritual beliefs. It means believing in past lives as an animal, having a spirit of a certain animal, etc.
*psychological- believing that therianthropy is a mental thing (not a mental illness!). For example someone who is a psychological therian believes that his/her therianthropy is an effect of coping mechanism, predisposition to adopt a non-human identity or traumatic event, that happened in the past. Psychological therians are usually skipped in most definitions of therianthropy.
3.Types of therians:
1.depending on identity
*typical therian- a person who identifies as a one animal.
*polytherian- person who identifies as more than one animal.
*cladotherian- person who identifies as a whole family instead of just a single species of an animal.
2. Depending on shifting:
Shift is a state in which your theriotype "shows itself" to you. You can feel phantom limbs such as paws, tail, horns, hooves, claws and stuff like that, wich is called phantom shift, your mind can "transform" into the mindset of your theriotype (mental shift) and you start sensing things, behaving and thinking like it. I am not going to go through all of the types of shifts, becouse you can find a lot of good explanations and terms in this topic and I don't want to duplicate the same thing again. Just please, remember, that physically transforming into your therian type (physical shift) is IMPOSSIBLE! You can read more about shift types here. ♥
*shifter therian-person who time-to-time shifts into an animal.
*contherian-someone who does not experience shifting and stays in a permanent state of half human half animal.
*vacillant therian-someone who experience a limited range of shifting.
*non-shifting therian- a person that is a therian, but do not experience any kind of shifts.
And that's it for today. All this post is just a general definition of therians and some important terms closely connected to therianthropy. I wish it was not too boring for you 😉. If you have any tips and/or find something I forgot to add to the topic, tell me in a comment. I'd love to know what do you think about my posts and learn more new things. Thank you✨
God bless all of you.

Therian music
Hi there,
So this is a list of my top 10 favorite therian related songs. I have never seen anyone making it before, and I thought that making one would help some people find anything that would make them feel better, closer to their animal side, calm them down, deal with bullies, be proud of who they are and maybe even help them with shifting and practicing meditation.
P.S.
Links are to YouTube videos
Hope you enjoy^^
9. AURORA- Running With The Wolves - mostly for wolves but it helps me also to feel more "foxy" ;-)
8.Ly O Lay Ale Loya (Circle Dance) - helps me a lot connect to my inner fox and to meditate
7.Miike Snow- Animal - this is the link to my favorite cover of this song. If you want to listen to the original one, there ya go
6. Sixx A.M. -Skin-very sad and calm song. I often listen to it when I feel upsad, tied up, bullied and/or experience a species dysphoria
5.D-Track- Invisible - sadly I couldn't find the link to the original song, but I wish that this therian tribute I found is also ok.
4.Lindsey Stirling - Something Wild ft. Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness- this great song, especially it's words,usually makes me happier and very shifty. While listening to it I can feel the freedom and imagine myself running free.
3.AURORA- Runaway- It shows the way a lot of us feel in these bodies and in this world sometimes. We sometimes want to run away to our homes and be happy again.
2. AURORA- Warrior - as you may notice I love Aurora's songs. This one has a great climate and talks about things a lot of therians relate to.
1. Omnia- I don't speak Human - who doesn't know this one? This is a great song made by great people. Most therians on YouTube use it in their videos. If you haven't heard of it before, I recommend you listen to it and watch the video of course.
That's it. I hope you guys enjoyed this list and songs I have put on it. If you have any other therian related songs and want to share them, feel free to leave a comment! I would love to hear some of your choices 😉.
God bless you,

Time to say hello!
Hi there my friends,
My name is Alsoomse (not my real name, but i feel a need to use a different name to express my animal self) and as you may notice, I am a tehrian :-) . My theriotype is a red fox. That means I identify AS one. My family or friends don't actually know that I am a foxkin, although I have been awaken for 2 years now, because I do not want them to know. Although (yay! again!) I wanted to have some place to share my thoughts, feelings and knowledge about therianthropy and foxes, so I've decided to create this blog. It is a kind of an educational blog and my journal at once, so I will be posting a lot of different therian related stuff. I also would be so much glad if You would like to share your thoughts and ideas in commends.God bless you,
Alsoomse
I am an artist too, so do not be suprised when You will see some of my drawings on this blog.
