unrestrained summer fun

saw what i think was a young wolf or fox therian out in public today! they were wearing their tail and mask and i thought it was so cool! i live in a very low population rural area, so i never thought i'd come across another therian! i was too shy to approach them and compliment them on their gear, but they seemed quite a bit younger than me anyways and i don't wanna scare anybody lmao. just thought it was real cool to see! made little ol bear me so happy to see others being themselves!

This user is an American black bear!

(It's my first time making a user box lol)

long time, no see friends! i did a bit of a rebrand, i was lunefang previously. i decided to give my @ a bit of an update as i've recently come to the conclusion that i'm bearkin/a bear therian.

i still feel a connection to my werewolf side, though i noticed it doesn't feel as strong outside of autumn and late summer. i was still feeling something in those off months, and i've recently been able to trace it back to being a bearkin.

bears have played a large role in my life for such a long time, and this identity was hiding in plain sight. my favorite movie growing up was brother bear, and it always made me feel some sort of connection when i watched it and i would get shifts at a young age before i knew what they were. my favorite food is sushi and i love salmon in any form. sweets like honey and berries have been a staple in my diet since i was a child, especially wild blackberries. i have a build similar to a bear. i prefer my nails long and sharp. bears have been a symbol of comfort for me, taking that form in plushies, necklaces, figures, clothing, and more throughout my life. heck, i bought a bear ears headband one day simply because it felt right. bears in media always make me feel seen and comfortable. bears in photos feel familiar in a way. there's so much more i could go on about, maybe in a bear ramblings post sometime?

anyways, thank you to those who have stuck around all this time for my werewolf content! i promise to post more when i feel like it, along with bear-related posts. i won't be super active here as tumblr is sort of intimidating to me, but thanks for hearing me out nonetheless! i hope you have a wonderful day/night, this is your local bearkin signing out for now <3

a werewolf / wolf stimboard w a dark forest vibe for anon!

Peak being a werewolf, but the kind that never was human. Just simply a wolf with the ability to stand bipedally, who can climb trees and pick berries, who can forage and hunt not only with teeth and claws but spears and bows.

~ Werewolfkin / Werewolf therian / Lycanthrope Flag ~

Feel free to use this flag anywhere !!!! But if anyone asks please link them to my Instagram!

No matter how hard I looked I COULD NOT find a werewolf therian / kin flag ANYWHERE and I know a few people who can’t find a flag for this as well! So I made this werewolf kin flag (not to be mistaken with wolf therians).

Flag colours and symbol meaning(s):

Otherkin Symbol (elven/fairy star): symbolizes the link between worlds and is a sacred pagan and neopagan symbol

Blue: Unity (Packs and community) & The Night Sky

Brown: A Common Fur Colour & Psychological Strength and Loyalty

Yellow: The Moon/Moonlight & Unity

White: The Moon & Diversity

The round white background to the elven star is common in most otherkin flags to make the star stand out more, but in case for the werewolf flag it can also be seen as a direct depiction of the moon!

What is Werewolf Otherkin/therian? (Personal + common definition)

Not to be mistaken with the wolf therian identity, werewolves don’t feel entirely like a wolf, but not entirely human either!!! They experience shifts just like the more common wolf therian, but what they shift to mentally and metaphysical can differ greatly, slightly, or not at all. Werewolves can have a single or multiple forms they see themselves as (teen wolf style werewolf, Skyrim style werewolf, the vampire diaries style werewolf, etc). I personally think a big part of this identity/experience is the sense of a transformation between ones states itself, but this may not be the case for everyone. This identity is not one made by choice… it’s often involuntary and a werewolfkin most likely had signs of being a werewolf from a young age, cause I know I did lmao… shifts are almost always heavily linked to the lunar cycle; when the moon is close to being full/is full werewolves tend to shift more - even without knowledge of what the current moon phase is!!! (I usually have no clue what the phase is, but when Im really shifty I’ll look up the current phase and it’s almost always close to a full moon). A final very important thing is that therianthropy, and otherkin identities are spiritual and/or psychological connective identities. Yes, we know we’re unfortunately human lmao, we’re not delusional. A lot of therians and otherkin are sure that they had a past life (or lives) as their kin/theriotype!

Reblogs, notes, and comments are greatly appreciated 🥰

Note:

Therian and otherkin identities are NOT related gender identity, but may effect someone who’s gender tends to change’s - change rate (eg. Someone may feel more masculine when experiencing lots of shifts/vice versa).

Werewolf Tips

Fake nails (claws!!)

Wearing eye contacts

Wear hoodie/coats with fur hood

Make a nest with pillows and blankets

Get/make your ears or tail!!

Go camping/go outside on the full moon

Wear deodorant or perfume that smell like forests/the outdoors

Read up on the folklore and mythologies on werewolf and lycans

If you wanna dig you can get claw gardening gloves

Watch werewolf shows

Get sheets and blankets that feel very comfy and make your brain go brr

Listen to howling/night noises

Make a pillow fort as a den

Eat beef jerky if you get meat cravings

Wear clothes with rips like jeans!!

I’m in love with the smell of pine, woods, grass and earth. With the smell of the heavy rain. I’m in love with every smell of Nature, like I’m a part of it.

I miss it, i miss it so much.

Feeling utterly hypnotised by the moon,, watching them silently, swaying back and forth on my Paws. They give me such energy,, I want to sprint across the moors into the fog. I want to climb the tallest tree and howl until my throat burns.

Me: I'm a strong, fearsome, powerful beast. No man can tame me, no enemy dare look me in the eye, lest I rend his flesh with my fangs.

My mate: Who's a good puppy?

Me: :O I'm a good puppy.

happy werewolf transgenderism wednesday 🤝

-- ☾ as autumn draws near, i feel the wolfish side of me grow restless. i wouldn't say restless in a bad way, not like anxious, but more... alive?

-- ☾ my neighbors often have bonfires this time of year. something about that scent really makes my mind run wild as well as makes it feel at ease.

-- ☾ i've spoken before about how i don't feel i was ever a violent being, but perhaps a scared and peaceful one. i feel this more as i age, i don't think i've ever felt that stereotypical "blood and gore and bones" type of way, more so i just feel at ease in a nice fur blanket with my werewolf plushies.

-- ☾ few things feel as bad sensationally than breaking a nail. especially after they've finally grown long enough to be filed to a point. finally i feel like my claws can be mimicked, then i work too hard and they break. i forget they aren't as powerful as before.

-- ☾ it's still warm where i am, but we occasionally get those chilly pre-autumn nights. i can hardly contain myself before setting out on a nighttime walk with my partner. he doesn't know of this side of me because i've chosen to keep it private, but these walks feel surreal when watching the moon and stars.

-- ☾ i prefer cold weather to hot weather any day. in the cold, sweaters feel almost like a part of me, like representation of my fur.

-- ☾ i'm entirely heat adverse. i must've lived somewhere nice and cold in a past life, as i crave that wind chill through my hair. my fur must've been thick and heavy, as now i can hardly stay outside in the heat for longer than a few moments without immediate discomfort.

-- ☾ i've collected more chain necklaces since my last post about them here. i love wearing them still. i've recently been made aware of slip chain necklaces, which tighten like a collar when one end is pulled on. i've been looking into finding a comfortable one ever since.

☾ about me.

my apologies, it would appear i've vanished again. sometimes even posting online anonymously can cause anxiety for me. since i'm attempting another comeback, here's a new introduction:

-- 🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘--

☾ you can call me lune or lucien ☾ i use he/they ☾ i'm 23 ☾ aries sun / pisces moon ☾ i have adhd + autism, pls have patience w/ me

i like to post + reblog the following:

☾ werewolfkin / werewolfcore / wolfkin aesthetics ☾ woodland / deep autumn / foresty aesthetics ☾ the occasional appealing recipe ☾ songs / lyrics i resonate with and most of all... ☾ my werewolfkin ramblings ~

i'm a very casual blog and i'm not terribly active, but i highly appreciate all the love and kindness this community has shown me and i hope you'll all continue to enjoy my werewolfy content, because i'll certainly be enjoying yours <3

🐺 Some more affirmations & positivity for my fellow werewolves! 🐺

You look so beastly today!

I can tell something about you is definitely nonhuman- it's both so cool and unsettling!

WHO'S A GOOD PUPPY!??? YEAH!!! YOU ARE!!! YOU WANT ME TO THROW THE BALL!??

We should go on a hike sometime, you can show me all your favorite spots!

Even if you physically don't look the part, I can see the beast, the real you- you're seen and you're loved both inside and out!

Your teeth are looking very sharp!

I bet you give the best hugs!

Dogs know what you are, and they love you!

The werewolf movies aren't always right, it's okay if you aren't like those werewolves- but it's also okay if you are!

If you're vegan/vegetarian, you're still just as beastly, wild, and valid as the other werewolves!

If you're disabled you're still just as strong, mighty, and fearsome as the other werewolves!

If you're a more domesticated werewolf you're valid!

If you're a more wild werewolf you're valid!

If your identity stems from delusions you're valid!

If your identity is a coping mechanism you're valid!

If you don't identify as otherkin but still identify as a werewolf you're valid!

If you aren't a traditional werewolf you're valid!

You're doing great! Make sure to drink water, eat a snack, get plenty of rest, and try to step outside today if you can!

🐺 I made another affirmations post since y'all loved the last one so much, enjoy! 🐺

Rustic Werewolf 🌲

i feel as though, while a werewolf, i am and always have been a gentle soul. i don’t have memories of attacking other creatures. i don’t have memories of digging my claws into flesh. all i can remember is running through deep earthy forests and wide open meadows. i vividly remember the snow covered woods and the feeling of the cold bark against my hands. i feel as though maybe i collected stones or feathers, and maybe the bones of deceased creatures, but i can’t remember ever outright harming anything or anyone. i think the wolf inside just felt content enough in solitude and with the ability to fear nothing.

i have the fondest memories of the moon, and looking up at it through the treetops. i crave that type of peace again. my fangs remember the feeling of the cold night air passing through them as i ran for miles through the woodlands. they remember the hard things i chewed on to keep them healthy. my claws remember the dirt and stones they’ve touched. they remember scratching and climbing up tall trees.

at the same time, i remember how it felt to bear my teeth, how it felt for all the hair on my neck to stand on end, the way my ears felt pressed against my skull. maybe i was more of a frightened creature than a violent one. perhaps that explains the anxiety and fear of many things i have now. in the present, i simply wish to reside in my home alone, covered in fur blankets and with a nice warm sweater. while i crave the smell of the forest, the human in me finds peace listening to nature sounds with my dogs. while things are different now than they once were, i feel i am no less a wolf than i always have been.

☾ wearing chain necklaces really brings out something within me. i feel somehow proud to wear them, like they’re some award or prize. i always feel so natural wearing them.

☾ i love when my nails grow out long enough to file to a point. i love just looking at them and touching them, feeling the pointed tips against my skin. if only they were stronger.

☾ i actually really enjoy brushing my teeth. taking care of my fangs makes me feel strong. i love looking at my canines in the mirror.

☾ i really want to buy myself some nice fingerless gloves, especially those ones with little paw pads sewn on them. soft enough to feel like paws, but with the ability to show off my claws.

☾ as stereotypical as it sounds, i love wearing my red flannel. seeing myself in it makes me feel all giddy inside.

☾ *taps nails against hard surface for clicking noises*

☾ i use an ipad to draw and i have a widget that shows the moon cycle everyday. turning my ipad on just to see that is so fun.

☾ i got a seafoam colored calcite the other day from a local festival that’s shaped like a tiny moon. i love holding it and feeling it in my hands. its sort of a good luck charm for me now. maybe i’ll find a way to put it on a chain necklace.
