Finally making an intro

I've known about this place for awhile though never joined until I got a random whim a few weeks ago to check things out here. Besides Trueform Within, I haven't really been the type to participate much on or read otherkin forums--most of my otherkin/therian activity online is spent on therianthropy boards instead, though I branch out sometimes to read some things on otherkin boards (primarily focusing on the therianthropy sections). So I may end up mainly lurking here.

I sometimes go by Sonne Spiritwind, though honestly I prefer to just be called Sonne (and I'm female, by the way, as people get confused at times thinking that my name is "Sonny" <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" /><!-- s -->). My main participation in the therian community is as one of the mods of Werelist, and through my site The Sanctuary, and as a co-maintainer and article writer for the Project Shift therianthropy information site. As for my personal therianthropy, I have multiple theriotypes, specifically mongoose, domestic horse, domestic cat, and seemingly some type of avian or proto-avian (I haven't had much progress in figuring that one out for the past few years, so I just tend to refer to it as a possible fourth theriotype). The details of how I figured out those as my theriotypes is documented in writings on my site, though some of them have outdated parts in them (especially the canine/wolf theriotype explanations in my Awereness Forums intro and reintro essays from years ago, but they give some decent idea about my cat and horse theriotypes), and the discovery and confirmation of my mongoose theriotype is documented in my "Musings on an Unknown Theriotype" series of writings there.

When it comes to my spirituality, mine is rather personalized and not particularly structured yet, so a basic list of descriptors for it are: agnostic polytheist, non-religious, animist, totemist, and "Pagan" (in a spiritual rather than religious sense). Last year I started to write more about my spirituality, primarily the totemic parts of it, and so I've added more spiritual writings to my site (with more to come later after I get them written).

If you have questions about me, feel free to ask, I just can't think of much else to write here (I think my intros get shorter and more succinct each time I make one). And also hello to the people who already know me, especially the Werelist members here <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s -->.

Hello! I've seen your site before, so you're quite a familiar face ^_~
