Welcome to Gaia! ::

We're all familiar with the fact that the Gaia forums are host to a wealth of different kinds of people. Normally I'm a huge fan of diversity, especially in its truest form (physical appearance). However, through reading these message boards, I've stumbled across some information that frightens and disturbs me.

Apparently, we're not all human here. There actually exist a number of people who do not even possess a human soul, outwardly human as they may appear. And what do they have instead? Some are inhabited by the souls of common animals like foxes, or house cats. Others are possessed by the souls of creatures thought by many to be fictional (dragons, angels, unicorns, phoenixes, etc.) Some of you nonbelievers may scoff but make no mistake about it folks, these people are real, their souls are real, the creatures are real, but above all, the danger is real.

To say that this isn't a danger is a vulgar display of naivete. Dragons, for example, are known for their ruthless antagonism towards mankind. Wildcats are tremendously hostile towards humans. Animals have no interest in helping humankind progress, as their bestial instincts do not allow them to want such things. As humans, we must act in the best interest of humankind. If people allow themselves to be swayed by the influence of the spirit of Cerberus dwelling inside themselves, humanity will suffer.

I have seen many confess to being indwelt by the spirit of a violent animal like a wolf, or a panther. What will happen when the dragons and the other carnivorous killers of the animal kingdom exploit the superior intellect of humans in order to meet the goals of their souls' true species? I'm no clairvoyant, but I would assume mass bloodshed across the globe, for starters. Man's ongoing war with nature would become Man's war with himself.

The origin of this kind of spiritual inhabitation is puzzling. Many are unaware of how their animal souls came to them, just that they simply are there. Others have said that they have snippets of unfamiliar memories, likely from a previous life in the original body of their spirit animal. In any case, the threat remains the same. Be on your toes, boys and girls. The next time a stranger glares at you, it could very well be a hungry timber wolf.

Pretending that this is a joke won't make the problem go away.

I think it's very sad for anyone to go through such an identity crisis, but I don't believe that anything puts man and woman as far and away as man and beast.


The first step is information. It's important to learn as much about this matter as possible, and make as many people aware of it as we can. I'm unfamiliar with any specific texts on this subject, however, which is proving most bothersome.


Human, of course. That is what you were referring to, right?
