	Therianthropy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Therianthropy is a generic term for any transformation of a human into another animal form, or for a being which displays both human and animal characteristics, either as a part of mythology or as a spiritual concept.
		Therianthropy can also refer to characters that share man and animal traits at the same time, for example with the animal-headed human forms of gods in Egyptian mythology (such as Ra, Sobek and others) as well as creatures like centaurs and mermaids.
		A nearly endless number of types of therianthropy could thus be referred to by their own individual terms, though most of these would be neologisms.

	Therianthropy (mythology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Therianthropy can be used to label a character that shares some traits of humans and some of non-human animals.
		The most commonly known form of therianthropy is lycanthropy, from the Greek word lycos ("wolf"), the technical term for man-wolf transformations (Rose, 230).
		Much of the time, therianthropy is not given any specific explanation in legends, other than being generally attributed to magic, which may be voluntary (a supernatural power) or involuntary (a curse).

		Therianthropy is a generic term for any transformation of a human into another animal form, either as a part of mythology or as a spiritual concept.
		A controversial aspect of therianthropy is the subject of shifting (a shortened word for shapeshifting), which generally refers to any manner by which a therianthrope's nature may become evidenced internally (to themselves) or externally to others.
		Spiritual therianthropy is not in any form the same as clinical lycanthropy, a mental illness in which an individual believes he or she belongs to or can change to another species.

		Spiritual therianthropy is not automatically the same as clinical lycanthropy, a mental illness in which an individual believes he or she belongs to or can change to another species.
		That said, since therianthropy involves at least the inner experience of dual (ie human and non-human) natures of some kind, it is reasonable to expect that the two may seem on the surface to share in common at least some dissociative traits.
		Stereotypically, it is said that furries view therianthropy as "taking it too far" or "too seriously", while therianthropes assert that furries are frivolous, juvenile, and/or don't respect or understand the true nature of animals.

		Therianthropy is a spiritual concept in which the individual believes they have the spirit or soul, in whole or in part, of a non-human animal.
		Spiritual therianthropy is also not the same as clinical lycanthropy, a mental disorder in which an individual believes they are physically of another species.
		However, there is a strong, though ill-defined notion that a therianthrope is one who feels they are the animal inside, rather than an external connection such as a totem or spirit guide, and those who claim that external connections as their therianthropy are sometimes shunned as fakers.

		therianthropy is a mindset, or a spiritual connection, depending on who you ask.
		Because psychologists have no idea what therianthropy is (I know this for truth) and that lycanthropy is only regarded scientifically as a symptom complex and not a diagnostic entity.
		My opinion on the therianthropy is that people just wanted to be cool so they decided that they would say that they had a mental/spiritual/physical connection with a specific or in some cases, numerous animals.

		Spiritual and Mental therianthropy are by far the the most common types for those that do consider themselves part animal.
		This could also refer to those that have animal spirit guides, but that is not considered true "therianthropy" because the animal counterpart is not really a part of the person, in body, mind or spirit.
		Mental therianthropy is when the person takes on mental characteristics, if not the entire mindset, of an animal.

		Your use of the word "therianthrope" tells me that you've already decided that there is no validity to Therianthropy and further, that it is only a mindset that is adopted by individuals who adjust their behaviour accordingly.
		As for Therianthropy being "cheap" or easy; Try living in accordance with nature and ones animal soul (assuming one is a Therianthrope) to the best of ones abilities in this day and age.
		The concious behaviour that does come from Therianthropy is evident in choices made by the individual with respect to actions that affect the world around him/her.

	Lycanthropy
		Therianthropy (less accurately, but more commonly known as Lycanthropy) is the ability of a humanoid to change into one or more animal forms.
		As personally rewarding as therianthropy may be to an individual, becoming infected will at the very least fundamentally change someone's life, and it can quite easily result in their death.
		Due to the fact that infectious therianthropy has the side-effect of making harder for someone to control their own passions and desires (especially when they have just come out of beast form), theriomorphs tend to be very understanding of their fellows.

	Defining Therianthropy
		This particular view of therianthropy sometimes is looked at as being a form of totemism, especially when the individual's take on it is that the wereside is a seperate entity itself rather than a side of that person's being.
		The worst case of this is when your average Joe, usually somewhere in their early to mid teens, who never had any real feeling that there was the spirit of an animal within them happens to stumble upon a personal webpage written by a were.
		The one absolute in therianthropy is the beleif in the manifestion of the animal spirit in or around the human essence, and everything else, every other theory, philosophy, logic is arguable and therefore there is no universal "path" to therianthropy.

		Therianthropy, the word, was introduced to AHWw by a wendigo in December, 1994.
		In fact, most intros to the popular were boards contain nothing relating to therianthropy, just a small wave and a "hello", at which point the "were" is welcome into the community and they are never required to give anything to the board at all, except for some bitching in a Pit or Valley of Carnage.
		Of those who share that particular belief, some believe the animal spirit(s) are always manifested within them (and yet another division is between the ones who believe a wereside is effecting them constantly as opposed to those who believe that although it never 'goes away', it does at times lay dormant.

		My therianthropy, my ways of shifting, my outlook on life, everything about my 'soul' or 'core self' or 'perspective' or 'mindset' is my own.
		A personal therianthropy bit would be the ways you have changed and grown, how you look at life from the eyes of a and how you have integrated yourself into a human society that may or may not support you.
		Therianthropy is not just you being an animal, because (as any biologist can tell you) there are general rules for each species, how they behave and such, but those rules can be broken.

		Therianthropy flies in the face of generations of sociological training to separate man from animals.
		Conversely, once the bold step of being claimant to therianthropy is taken, the path ever after is wrought with difficulty.

		So a therian could definitely have an animal soul, but the soul would be a product of their therianthropy, not the other way around.
		Nor do I believe that it is entirely based on faith, because there's certainly a lot of concrete evidence that points to therianthropy as being real.

		Spiritual Therianthropy is the belief that a human can have an animal nature.
		Totem animals are one form this belief takes, and the belief in were-creatures - werewolves in Europe, werejaguars in South America, weresharks in Polynesia as historical examples - is another common form.
		Many weres visualize themselves internally as their were animal, or some anthromorphic form, and are uncomfortable with people who don't think of themselves as animals.

		Therianthropy is a state of being and way experiencing the world that leads a person to feel and believe they are partially or completely animal inside (in a mental, emotional and/or spiritual way).
		Among animal people, this term is used in a general way and can apply to all types of therianthropes; however, therianthropy usually is assimilated with dichotomic therianthropy, "where the therian ranges between humanity and animality on some level" (source: Shifters.Org).
		Contherianthropy is a variation of therianthropy where the therian's human and animal(s) selves are blended together into one single constant and unchanging aspect of the person.

		In a way I think that that’s probably related to my therianthropy — it makes sense that if you ‘shift’ when you’re already pretending to be a wolf, then it would feel different, and so it did.
		The first time I actually remember anything directly connected to therianthropy was when I was in Grade Six, or so.
		Somewhere along the way I reached the point where it felt comfortable to say that yes, there is something not entirely human inside of me, and that non-human something is Wolf.

		A primary idea behind the whole concept of therianthropy is that each person must find their own path, which may be wildly different from that of any other person.
		It's fairly symbolic of therianthropy, with the shift from vertical (standing upright) to horizontal (standing quadrupedally), while still retaining the same essential substance.
		Therianthropy and the concept of otherkin have thus far never been beliefs that could be accused of being money-making schemes, and I'd like them to remain that way.
