I had symtoms after reading. I thought of that, too. The book only has the hot part and the itching part. I hope it is my imagination, but I want to take precautions. If I passed everything off as nothing and left it alone, where would I be if it is actually something?
That was not the best term. I believe that the werewolf spirit followed me into my spirit, from another life. That or I somehow became a spiritual wereolf by some other means. That is just what I think has occured.
If you have a wolf spirit around you, that's called a spirit guide. Sometimes also referred to as an "animal guide," although I consider that term more restricting since spirit guides do not always take the form of an animal.
UnluckyRaven, both werewolves and vampires go through an awakening. Although there are slight differences, on occasion certain traits will be overlooked and so a vampire that has recently awoken may think they are actually a werewolf or vice versa. When a vampire thinks he/she's a werewolf, it may lead to not feeding as you know is required which could lead to some health problems. I was just pointing it out as a possibility here, however I have to agree that there isn't really sufficient evidence, especially after having heard her symptoms, to believe that is the case here.
A human that can shift into a wolf on the astral I believe. Which from what I know is called a Therian. A Therian is an individual that has the spirit of an animal instead of that of a human. They can feel animal appendages in place of human ones and so on and so forth. They also at times may behave in a way similar to the animal.
Actually, since spirits do not have a definite form(they can appear as whatever they want) I believe a Therian would be a human who's spirit's preferred form (the form they take most when not restricted by a human body) is that of an animal. If the spirit itself were the animal, then the spirit would not be in a human body and would have a spirit of it's own.
The feeling of being that animal while not actually being that animal would most likely be the result of past life memories subconsciously emerging as the human becomes more aware of the favored form's existence and more accepting of it, allowing those memories to surface a little more clearly. This could be for any form the spirit has taken, including that of a dragon, alien, insect, or plant.
A werewolf is different in the way that it is more a genetic thing, however the origins are still in question. I haven't been able to find anything that would explain why and how werewolves exist.
